the last day of 2022

 i think the rain is supposed to stop by tonight. not that i'm going out to celebrate New Year's Eve or anything. those moments are light years behind me now. trying to manage my arthritis is enough excitement for me anymore.

Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both really good last night.

AEW Rampage was good last night.

i did watch some college football last night:

so, the rain kept me up until 5 this morning. i didn't watch any of the Manchester United game since i didn't wake up until a little after 9. thankfully, they won over Wolves, 1-0.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

nothing on the DVR tonight.

the New York Knicks play tonight in Houston.

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

the Dayton Flyers play this afternoon at Davidson.

team USA plays Finland today at the World Juniors. the winner of the game will win first place in the group.

Ohio State plays Georgia tonight in the Peach Bowl. the winner of the game will play the winner of TCU vs. Michigan for the national championship.

i'm sure i will watch some other college basketball and football games today. hell, probably some hockey and soccer as well.

i should be on here tomorrow before the New Orleans Saints play.

i hope everyone has a great and safe New Year's Eve. 

and may 2023 be a great year for all of us.

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.

el ultimo dia del año

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...

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

one of those days...

 or maybe it is simply, i can't fucking stand Mondays. today has been one of those days where it seems like i'm just fucking stuck in first gear and don't have the ability to get going. add in my mother falling again and me screwing up my back trying to get to her and you can easily understand why i turn to alcohol on most days.

i think most of mom's falling is due to her vision being so bad she has absolutely no sense of depth perception. so, this once again will be the battle between being stubborn and asking for fucking help. as always, i'll be the one stuck in the middle, getting more frustrated by the minute. good times.

the Yankees lost to Boston last night, 3-0. it almost seems like the team is just going to coast for the rest of the season, see if they can still win the division and then flip the switch in the playoffs. great. they start a series at home tonight against Tampa Bay.

team USA defeated Sweden last night, 3-2, at the World Juniors. that means they will finish first in the group and play Czechia in the quarterfinals.

the season finale of Westworld was excellent last night. i'm hoping there will be more of the series, but if there isn't, this finale was the perfect goodbye.

Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.

VICE was very good last night.

The Chi was really good last night.

City on a Hill was good last night.

Flatbush Misdemeanors was pretty funny last night.

Big Brother was good last night. i'm happy for Taylor.

Power Book III: Raising Kanan was fucking great last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and Industry.

i did listen to episode 408 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:

i didn't get to bed this morning until 5 AM. i was up at 9 AM. nothing like sitting at the table at 4 AM going through the coupons after getting the dishes done and seeing your mother come out to the table, not really sure what she is doing. i keep telling her, and you wonder why i don't get to sleep much anymore.

she was supposed to have a counseling session online today but of course, that got cancelled. so now, she has to do one in the morning and i know tomorrow will be a fresh slice of hell as she is not a morning person.

thanks again to everyone that has checked out my latest published poems. i've had 9 published in the last 3 days. not bad...

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

had a little luck today...

 so, after i went to the bank today to deposit a check, i decided to go to Meijer. i was hoping to find some baseball cards. i ended up buying a Gypsy Queen box of cards, 1 pack of Diamond Kings and 4 packs of 2022 Topps Series 2. had a couple good cards in the Gypsy Queen box. found a great rookie in the Diamond Kings pack (Oneil Cruz) and found the rookie card i have been hunting for awhile in the Topps packs (Wander Franco). i also got a couple of binders to put some pages of cards in as some of my other binders are getting way too big now. all in all, i spent $75. i think there was somewhere around $60 worth of cards in what i opened today. i was hoping to find some Bowman cards but i didn't have any luck with that.

the Yankees left a small village on base last night and lost to Boston, 5-4, in 11 innings. i hope they win tonight but the way they are playing right now, i won't be holding my breath.

Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both pretty good last night.

AEW Rampage was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Nikki Glaser: Good Clean Filth.

i didn't sleep well last night, but i did get a shave and shower done, so there's that. my arthritis has been acting up today. plenty of rain in the area, just enough to drive me nuts.

i should be on here tomorrow before the Yankees game starts in the afternoon.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

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 socially distant.

get the fucking shot.

prefiero tener suerte que ser bueno
