the calm before the storm...

 the weather is going to get fucking crazy here in a few hours. the rain is going to turn to snow, heavy at times, the wind is going to become ferocious and the temperatures are going to drop like crazy. like from 41 to a feels like -30. good times.


at least mom's new chair got here this morning. she got duped a bit as she thought the $40 she was paying extra was for them to take the old chair. actually, it was $40 for them to move it out of the room and put it somewhere else. i opened the garage door and told them to put it in there. i know damn well the store never made it clear that was what the fee was actually for. so, i imagine this might be the last time we use Med Mart for awhile. 


AEW Dynamite was really good last night.




Hard Knocks was pretty good last night.



Homeward Bound: A Grammy Salute To The Songs of Paul Simon was excellent last night.









enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NJPW.


i did see some of the Yankees press conference today introducing Carlos Rodon.







the New York Rangers play tonight at home against the Islanders.





the New York Knicks lost last night at home to Toronto, 113-106.




here are your NBA highlights from last night:



i will probably watch some of the Jets vs. Jaguars NFL game tonight. mom is a Jets fan.


i need to get going on dinner tonight. i'm going to try to make the home equivalent of the Arby's Beef and Cheddar. this is going to be interesting to say the least.


i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i'm hoping we actually have power tomorrow. mom has a guy lined up to do the driveway and sidewalks if we get a ton of snow. i'm hoping it isn't too bad, but i know if we get any snow and have those crazy ass winds, it is going to be a fucking mess.


until tomorrow kids...

welcome to winter...

 so, i did get to the grocery store early today and made it back home in time to watch Manchester United. more on that in a bit. i tried my best to keep the grocery bill reasonable considering the list i was given was more like a scroll. i ended up saving $41 so the total of $209 was a little more palpable. so, we are fully stocked now. i wanted to do that just in case the weather truly turns to shit in the next few days. we're only supposed to get a few inches of snow, but when that is falling and the wind is blowing 60 MPH, i know it is going to be fucking crazy. and apparently everyone else shopping today was thinking the same thing. but, at least this time Kroger had more than two checkout lanes going.


Manchester United won today over Burnley in the League Cup, 2-0.







the New York Knicks won last night at home over Golden State, 132-94. they play Toronto at home tonight.





here are your NBA highlights from last night:



the New York Rangers winning streak came to an end last night, losing in Pittsburgh, 3-2.






the Dayton Flyers had their first 40 point win last night in 10 years. they defeated Alcorn State, 88-46.



NXT was very good last night.













enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be AEW Dynamite, Hard Knocks and Homeward Bound: A Grammy Salute to the Songs of Paul Simon.


i did watch the Yankees press conference this morning to announce the signing of Aaron Judge and naming him the 16th captain of the New York Yankees.










they have another one tomorrow morning to introduce Carlos Rodon as the newest Yankee pitcher.


i believe i am making nachos for dinner tonight, so i need to get to work preparing all of that. 


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


until then 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.
