happy sunday...

 i do love that today happens to be 4/20 and Easter. they go hand in hand most of the time.

night 1 of WrestleMania was good. a few surprises, probably nothing bigger than what happened in the pre-show. WWE has purchased the Mexican promotion AAA. that floored me. i have always been a fan of lucha libre and can only hope that the WWE machine will make it even bigger. as for the matches, i love that Jey Uso won the title. the Paul Heyman double backstab to end up with Seth Rollins was very good. hopefully, it will be even better tonight.

earlier in the day, NXT Stand & Deliver was really good. 

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

here are your two videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Americas, The Last of Us, The Righteous Gemstones and Power Book III: Raising Kanan.

Manchester United plays at home today against Wolves. hopefully, they will find a way to win.

the Yankees lost yesterday, 10-8, in 10 innings. they were up 8-4 in the 9th. you can't lose those games. hopefully, they will win today.

i'm sure i will watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs today.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay off the fucking streets.

get the fucking shot.

one of the craziest games i have ever seen...

 when Manchester United was up 2-0 at halftime yesterday, i felt pretty confident. when they were down 4-2 in extra time against Lyon (playing with 10 men), i felt horrible. then, Casemiro got fouled in the box. Bruno scored the penalty kick. then, Casemiro and Bruno made a great little passing play to Kobbie Mainoo to make it 4-4. one minute after that, Casemiro made the perfect pass to Harry Maguire to head in the winner. 3 goals in 7 minutes. holy shit. one of the craziest games i can remember. first European game to have 5 goals scored in extra time. United won 5-4 and 7-6 on aggregate. they advance to the semifinals of the Europa League.

the New York Rangers won last night at home against Tampa Bay, 4-0. that wraps up the season and Sam Rosen's 40th year as the tv broadcaster of the team. i thought it was a nice touch to announce Sam as the #1 star of the game.

the New York Yankees won last night over Tampa Bay, 6-3. hopefully, they will do that again tonight.

AEW Collision was ok last night.

Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage was pretty funny last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and Real Time with Bill Maher. the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony is late tonight on Peacock.

here are your 2 videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

i will probably watch some of the NBA playoffs tonight. Miami plays Atlanta and Dallas plays Memphis. winners gets the 8th seed, the losers will be playing golf soon.

you know how much i love doing a surprise load of laundry in the morning? good friday my ass.

i guess Orkin is supposed to be here at noon and mom has physical therapy at 3:15 this afternoon.

i will be on here in the morning tomorrow, before NXT starts in the afternoon.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

it never gets boring...

 so, i was getting ready to write this about a hour ago. that was until i heard mom scream from her room. i went in and turned on the light and asked what was wrong? she started complaining about all the people in her room, etc. i told her she is once again hallucinating and thinking her dreams are reality. i explain to her all the time this is the byproduct of not doing any drugs while growing up in the 60's. 

here are your two videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

the Yankees won last night at home to sweep the Royals, 4-3. they start a series tonight at Tampa.

AEW Dynamite was actually pretty good last night.

the season finale of Abbott Elementary was hilarious.

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage and AEW Collision.

Manchester United plays today at home against Lyon in the Europa League. the score is 2-2 on aggregate. if United wins today they will advance. 

the New York Rangers finish their disappointing season tonight at home against Tampa Bay. the only reason to watch tonight is for Sam Rosen.

i did watch some of the NBA playoffs last night.

i'm going to try to be on here tomorrow before mom has her physical therapy in the afternoon.

that's all for me kids...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

well, at least that's over...

 i almost had a feeling that the New York Rangers were going to find a way yesterday to stay alive in the playoff chase. i quickly saw how foolish that thought was after the first 40 minutes. they lost at Carolina yesterday, 7-3. that eliminates them from the chance to make the playoffs. they are the 4th team to win the President's trophy the previous year and miss the playoffs the next. the Rangers have actually done that twice now. the last time they did it, they won the Stanley Cup the next season. oh, if only history could fucking repeat itself.

here are your two videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

i did watch the college hockey final last night.

AEW Collision was good last night.

Saturday Night Live was fucking hilarious last night.

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be, the season finale of The Americas, the season finale of Yellowjackets, The Last of Us, The Righteous Gemstones, Last Week Tonight and Power Book III: Raising Kanan.

Manchester United plays at Newcastle today. i would love if United pulls a surprise today.

i'm sure i will watch plenty of sports today.

i also hope to get some more sleep.

mom wanted me to cook breakfast this morning. i made some bacon and cheesy eggs, with toast. i joked that she better get up early if she wanted it. amazingly, she was up and in her chair in the living room by 6 AM. i laughed.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday.

i hope your Sunday will be even better.

a cloudy Friday...

 so, i guess i really needed some sleep last night as i just completely passed out in my massage chair around 12:15. i woke up at 3:53 and was shocked. i didn't even do mom's eyes before she fell asleep. i apologized to her this morning about that. as usual, i'm guessing it was the gin.

here are your two videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

the New York Rangers won last night at the Islanders, 9-2. they won all 4 games this season against the Islanders for the first time in over 20 years.

Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage was pretty funny last night.

i did watch some college hockey last night.

and now some of this and that:

the Yankees play tonight at home against the Giants.

so, i wrote 2 poems yesterday while mom was doing physical therapy. i typed those up after i watched the second half of the Manchester United game.

it was 1-1 when i started watching. United took a late lead and i honestly thought they could see the game out. silly me. they gave up a goal at the death of the game, 96th minute. 2-2 in the first leg against Lyon in the Europa League. second leg will be next week at Old Trafford.

i'll probably be on here tomorrow in the morning.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

sometimes the pain gets to be so much...

 so, after i did the dishes at 3 in the morning... i woke up from a nap while watching AEW... the rain was just enough last night to get my arthritis going to the point where the pain just shut my body off. between the pain, alcohol, etc. i was either in a deep sleep or partially dead. now, it was only for 45 minutes, but it certainly felt longer. 

here are your two videos for this day of National Poetry Month:

                                           

the Yankees won yesterday at Detroit, 4-3. they are off today and start a series tomorrow night at home against San Francisco.

the New York Rangers lost last night at home against Philadelphia, 8-5. the only good thing about the game was seeing Sam & J.D. on television together again. the Rangers play tonight at the Islanders. 

i did watch Pat McAfee's special on YouTube last night. i laughed my ass off that the person who won $2 million last night was wearing an Eagles jersey in Pittsburgh.

AEW Dynamite was ok last night.

Abbott Elementary was very good last night.

The Masked Singer was crazy as usual last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage.

Manchester United plays today in the Europa League. i might get back in time from mom's physical therapy to see some of the second half.

i got a letter in the mail today saying the Medicaid had denied my Rybelsus prescription. so, i go from an 8.4 to 6.0 on my A1C and i'm showing no progress on the drug. i know the government doesn't want to pay for shit, at least have the dignity to tell me you'd rather see me die than actually live better through science.

i will hopefully get some poems written today while i am in the waiting room when mom is doing her physical therapy.

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

grocery shopping went ok yesterday. i at least got done before the rain started.

ok, that's all for me kids...

until tomorrow...

speaking of hockey, the New York Rangers lost at New Jersey yesterday, 4-0. 

the USWNT defeated Brazil yesterday, 2-0.

the Yankees won yesterday at Pittsburgh, 10-4. they go for the sweep today.

good news and a wasted afternoon...

 so, i went to the bank to make a deposit before my doctor's appointment. i got to the doctor's office a little early and amazingly, they got me into my appointment early. my A1C went from 8.4 to 6.0, everyone is thrilled about that. i explained that there will be a little gap in the Rybelsus since Anthem wanted me to pay over $2,600 for it. i did get my Medicaid card today. of course, the mail didn't come before my appointment. so, i'll have to make another trip out tomorrow while grocery shopping. so, i got back home and wanted to cancel my Anthem insurance. the last 2 hours have been spent trying to do that. from what i gather, the fuck up is the plan used to be on the Marketplace but no longer is so the Marketplace can't cancel something they don't have yet Anthem is telling me that is the only way the policy can be cancelled. as i told my mother, this is why death is so popular anymore. i told mom to try to cancel the payment she made last night and maybe then they'll understand to cancel the fucking policy.

i didn't get to watch any of the Manchester United game today. they lost at Nottingham Forest, 1-0.

Monday Night Raw was very good yesterday.

The Voice was excellent last night.

the New York Rangers signed Gabe Perreault last night. that made me very happy.

the Yankees play tonight at home against Arizona.

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

oh yeah, since it is April and April is National Poetry Month, i guess i need to do a little bit on that.

enjoy...

i will probably do two videos a day on poets i like. and in this case, i figured i would start with myself as i have had the kind of day that i know my 8 year old self is laughing about and shaking his head, knowing that death was always the right answer.

finally got to turn the furnace off...

 i told mom last night that when she got up today, i would turn the furnace off and open up the house. as usual, she can't remember these conversations. so, when she finally got out of bed at 2 PM today, she was surprised the house was still closed up and i was napping in my massage chair. she thought i would just open the house this morning. i said i would have, but when i talked to you at 10 AM, you said you were cold. i just imagine what her life would be like if i didn't have any patience left.

the New York Rangers won last night at Minnesota, 3-2, in OT. 

Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage was pretty funny last night.

i did write a poem last night about the blood moon. well, sort of about it. i was hoping to write more but only the one poem came to me.

 so, i was dead tired last night and went to sleep a little after 2 AM. i woke up feeling really relaxed. i rolled over and the clock said 4:41 AM. i deflated. it was then a process of twenty minute naps until 6 AM came along. i frustratingly got up and got my day going. of course, after i had breakfast and talked to mom a bit, i went out to my massage chair and fell asleep. 3 hours later, woke up and was shocked. i would give a limb to get a decent night of continuous sleep.
