welcome to the weekend...

 so, i did take mom to Rite Aid this afternoon. we both got our COVID shots. thankfully, we didn't have to wait that long. after that, we went to the local grocery store around the corner basically. i needed to get some provolone cheese for dinner tonight. i knew as soon as Arby's started showing those commercials for the cheesesteaks that i was going to have to make them at home for dinner.

the New York Rangers lost last night at home to Boston, 3-1. that finishes the preseason for them. 1 damn win and honestly, if this is how they are going to play this season, it is going to be a long fucking season.

looks like the video element of the blog isn't working today. great.

Big Brother was good last night. Mecole was evicted and Bowie Jean is the new HOH.

NJPW was really good last night.

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, AEW Rampage and Real Time with Bill Maher. i'll watch NXT Level Up sometime tonight on Peacock.

i should be on here tomorrow before Ohio State plays at noon.

if i am really on the ball tomorrow, i'll be on here before Manchester United plays in the morning.

i need to go get started on dinner, so that's all for me kids.

until tomorrow...

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.

Bienvenido al fin de semana

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...

one of those days...

 well, it didn't rain today. but, when it gets hot like this, there is a whole different level of problems or potential problems i have to deal with. and of course, one of those leaped to the forefront today.

so, i got mom to her doctor's appointment. it was at 12:30. sometime around 1:45, we finally went back to see the doctor. i was beyond pissed at this point. and of course, we waited longer back there as well. sometime around 2:30, we were leaving. mom gets her next injection in September. so, i took her to get her frozen Coke (i guess this is her reward) and we went back home. within 15 minutes of her being home, she went into her bedroom and fell. i'm guessing she was trying to set her frozen Coke down on her nightstand, lost her balance and fell down. she cut her face and her arm, just enough to bleed. i gave her a concussion test. thankfully, her eyes weren't glassy and she knew her name and what day it was. when it gets warm like this, her Meniere's Disease truly fucks with her. and i mean to the point where it doesn't take much at all for her to lose her balance. so yeah, this will be my summer. anytime she's out in the heat, i need to strap a damn leash on her and make sure she doesn't fall. 

so, after all that, i went to Rite Aid to get my prescriptions. there was no charge for those. i then did part of the grocery shopping at the local grocery store. i got what i normally get on Wednesday and some chicken for dinner tonight. i don't feel like being over a hot stove this evening.

i was devastated last night learning that Desus & Mero were splitting up and the show would be no more. those motherfuckers have made me laugh harder than anyone over the last decade or so. they will be missed.

the USWNT defeated Canada last night, 1-0, to win the CONCACAF women's championship. this all means they have qualified for the next World Cup and the next Olympics.

i didn't watch much of the Home Run Derby last night. i would love to see Juan Soto in pinstripes one day, that's for sure.

The Captain last night was very good.

Don't Forget the Lyrics was really good last night.

Monday Night Raw was good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be NXT, Deadliest Catch and What We Do in the Shadows.

Manchester United defeated Crystal Palace over in Australia this morning, 3-1. from what i saw on the highlights, i really like how they are playing now.

i might watch some of the MLB All-Star game tonight, mostly just to see the Yankees involved in the game.

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

i had another night of shitty sleep once again. i'm guessing that is exactly what i have to look forward to tonight as well.

good times.

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.

a la mierda el calor

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

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

old bones creaking down a hallway

before i even turned on the computer this morning, i could feel there was rain in the area. sure enough, first thing i see on the screen is a message from the weather channel saying thunderstorms in the area around 9 AM. those haven't happened yet, but i haven't seen the sun yet either. i figure as soon as i get done writing this i will be in my massage chair, settling in for a long day.

the listless New York Yankees lost last night 5-1. of course, Toronto beat Boston, so the Yankees are now 4 1/2 games out of first in the division. i'd love for them to avoid the wildcard so they didn't have to play the 1 game playoff, but i don't see that happening now. they face the Mets again this afternoon. the offense will have to decide to do something if they actually want to win this series. and it would help if the manager would pull his head out of his ass. just sayin'.

NJPW was excellent last night. Treehouse Masters was good as well. if i ever get enough fuck you money, i would love to retire to a treehouse on the Oregon coast. it won't ever happen, but a man can dream.

time for some music kids:

and now some of this and that:

and the man i wish was the next President of the United States of America:

Ohio State plays Northern Illinois this afternoon. hopefully it's another blowout early, with all parts of the team clicking.

tonight on the DVR will be ROH. i figure i will spend most of the day watching soccer from Europe and college football.

i will be on here early tomorrow morning as Manchester United plays right before the NFL games start. so that means i have to get all my fantasy football shit done either today or late tonight. fun times.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday lined up. enjoy what i hope is better weather in your neck of the woods. enjoy a stiff drink and a good meal. and whatever your passion may be, let it fucking flow today.

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...
