thankfully, no frost...

 i don't think it got cold enough out here last night for the patchy frost the weather experts were warning about. at least, when i woke up this morning, i didn't see any damage to any of the new plants. they were enjoying the full sunshine. 


the New York Yankees lost last night in Toronto, 3-0, in 10 innings. hopefully, they will win the series tonight.




here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night.



AEW Dynamite was very good last night.



the season finale of The Masked Singer was good last night. i nailed the last two celebrities left.




i will hopefully have some more poems to type up this afternoon after i get home from mom's physical therapy session.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NJPW and the two episode season finale of Young Sheldon.


i will probably watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs tonight.


i know after we get back from mom's physical therapy i need to put out the repellent i got yesterday.


a little Notsam Wrestling bonus episode i am listening to right now:




i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

i can never understand it...

 i have never accepted the act of playing down to your competition as a part of human nature. either you have the competitive spirit to always win, no matter who you are playing, or you don't. it's painfully fucking obvious that Manchester United doesn't have that win at all costs mentality anymore. the 1-1 draw today against a Fulham team that is already relegated from the Premier League is inexcusable. they are fucking around with the possibility of pissing away the chance to finish second in the league. this will also mean they will probably piss away their chance to win the Europa League. hats off to Cavani for the screamer he scored today from 35 yds. out. i wish everyone else on the team had an assassin inside of them like he does. and to think, i was actually having a good day.




the Yankees lost last night, 5-2. it is painfully obvious that the team isn't that good this year.



here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night.





Monday Night Raw was ok last night. honestly, i fast forwarded through most of it.











The Voice was excellent last night. i have no damn clue who is going to get eliminated tonight.






the season finale of Miz & Mrs was hilarious last night.





enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NXT, Deadliest Catch and The Voice.


the play in games for the NBA playoffs start tonight.


i'm sure i will catch some of the NHL playoffs tonight as well.


i need to pick up the trash here and next door, so that's all for me kids.


i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.


i now have weeds to pull in the front flower bed. time to get some aggression out.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck the police.


black lives matter.


stay healthy.


wash your fucking hands.


wear your mask.


get the shot.

a rainy, rainy Monday

it has been raining almost all fucking day. needless to say, i didn't make it to the bank. hell, i've been in so much pain today, i almost didn't make it out to the damn mailbox this afternoon.

hopefully, i'll make it to the bank tomorrow.

the season finale of Batwoman was really good last night. can't wait for season 2.

the last two episodes of The Last Dance were great last night.

VICE was really good last night.

Billions was pretty good last night.

Penny Dreadful: City of Angels was excellent last night.

I Know This Much Is True was really good last night.

Insecure was pretty funny last night.

Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.

Hightown was pretty interesting last night. i'm hoping it's going to be a really good show.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Voice, Songland, Fuck That's Delicious and Desus & Mero. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

i did listen to episode 291 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:
http://notsam.com/wrestlingpodcast/2020/5/18/notsam-wrestling-291-flash-morgan-webster-amp-john-cena-thoughts

i did watch a little of the NASCAR race yesterday.

if i do go out tomorrow, i want to find a new hummingbird feeder. the old one i have out there is a cheap one.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

i'm off to go ice my back down for the 5th time today. joy.

until tomorrow kids...

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands...

trying to break through the clouds...

the skies have looked like it was going to rain buckets all day long. so far, that hasn't happened. but, i would prefer it just fucking rain already and move on. at this point of my life, arthritis = misery.

the ppv last night from the WWE was pretty good. i wished they went a different direction for a few of the outcomes, but other than that, i thought it was a good show. one moment that certainly got my juices going was this:
that was part of the main event. between that and the I Quit match, i think it was very good. the only other match that really caught my eye was this one:
i thought both Ryback and Bray Wyatt looked really good in this match.

i don't know how much of Monday Night Raw i'm going to watch tonight. given that the hockey game and the finals of The Voice will be on that the same time, there's a good chance it's going to end up on the DVR for tomorrow afternoon.

the Sunday night shows were great. Nurse Jackie was good. Happyish is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Penny Dreadful was a great and dark. it was a flashback episode that i'm sure is going to provide all the clues for the next shows. Silicon Valley was great. Veep was good. and finally, Last Week Tonight hit another home run:

the New York Yankees lost yesterday 6-0. thankfully, they are off today before they start a quick two game series in Washington on Tuesday.

the New York Rangers play Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals tonight. i'm hoping they can continue on the roll they are on. i'm expecting tonight's game to be tougher than Game 1.

i'm hoping the performances on The Voice tonight are amazing. i really would love to see Meghan win but i'm pretty damn sure that Sawyer is going to win it.

also on the DVR tonight will be the Late Show with David Letterman. tonight starts the final 3 shows so i figure i better record all of those and keep them for as long as i can.

i did a little poetry work this afternoon. i want to make sure i get some new poems to ZYX so i can also make sure Arnold has my new address.

that's all for me today. i hope everyone had a great weekend.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...

with only a few clouds in the sky...

this happens to me so many damn times that i can only laugh at it now. i got a line trapped in my head last night. a line that would make for a pretty damn good poem. so, sure enough, as i'm taking the trash down to the end of the lane in my truck, the poem starts to write itself. and of course, i have no pen or paper on me. so, like the crazy fucker i am, i have to keep repeating it to myself until i get back up to the house to write it down. and as i'm repeating i'm adding more lines to it. so you would think it would be easy to just write it down when i get back up to the house. well, not exactly. i forgot the last few lines of what i came up with so the poem that came out of it is a little different than i thought it was going to be. basically, there's the long version of oh by the way, i happened to write a poem this morning.

i enjoyed the season finale of Saturday Night Live last night. helps that some of the best to be on the show in the last decade came back for it. also, i think i'm going to have to give St. Vincent a closer listen when i get the chance.

i did catch most of ROH last night. another great episode of some great pro wrestling. i'll probably check it out again at noon before the Yankees game.

the Yankees play a true doubleheader today. they have an off day tomorrow, so that's good. hopefully they can win both games and not get anyone injured in the process.

i figure i will also watch some playoff basketball and hockey today as well.

and if i can get a good nap in this afternoon, i figure i will make it through all the Sunday night shows. i've re-watched Penny Dreadful a few times in the last few days. this might be the first series i have been this excited for since Six Feet Under.

hope this finds everyone well. i'll be on here sometime in the afternoon tomorrow i guess. it's supposed to get warmer tomorrow, so i might end up being outside for awhile. i noticed the buzzards were out last evening. and when i went to feed the cats this morning, there was definitely the smell of death on the other side of the barn. i figure if it gets a little drier tomorrow, i may do some investigating. my best hunch is that something went to go die underneath one of the brush piles we have over there. i do have one cat that is "missing". i haven't seen it in a few weeks.

sorry for that tangent. sometimes when i start to write i just let the thoughts flow. and like most of my drunk elders, they have no sense of direction.

have a great end to the weekend. go get drunk and forget about work tomorrow.

take it easy... and if it's easy, take it again.
