happy earth day to everyone, well, almost everyone. there is a rather large portion of assholes that fall into the let's use up everything we fucking can, deplete the planet, and then go fuck up the next one. those assholes have no damn clue what they are actually fucking doing to this planet.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i found out right before i fell asleep last night that the pope had died. i find it curious that one of the last pieces of shit to see him alive was J.D. Vance. now, i'm not saying one thing killed the other, just saying it is interesting. in a weird way, last night was full of tragedy. be it wrestling, tv shows, reality... damn.
night 2 of WrestleMania was damn near perfect. the show was much better paced than night 1. i liked the matches better. the Joe Hendry surprise was actually a surprise. it was great to see Becky Lynch back. then, the main event started. Cena's win over Cody felt completely anticlimactic. now, i have learned to let everything play out before casting judgement, but this certainly fell flat. and i know in wrestling history, when your main event falls flat, it takes away from the whole show.
The Last of Us last night was shocking, mostly because i didn't know what was coming since i never played the video game.
The Americas last night was the behind the scenes of how they made the show. that was fascinating to watch.
The Righteous Gemstones was hilarious last night. just two episodes left.
Power Book III: Raising Kanan was very good last night.
here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs yesterday:
here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs yesterday:
Manchester United lost yesterday at home to Wolves, 1-0.
the Yankees won 4-0 yesterday against Tampa Bay. i couldn't believe the official scorer took away the no hitter that Max Fried was working on. and i couldn't believe the umpires and the replay booth took away a home run from Aaron Judge that was clearly fair. the Yankees start a series tonight in Cleveland.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
nothing on the DVR tonight. i will be watching Monday Night Raw on Netflix. the Raw after WrestleMania is always a crazy one.
below are your two videos for this day of National Poetry Month:
mom has physical therapy today. i will hopefully write some poems there.
i should be on here tomorrow in the afternoon, most likely.

WrestleMania 41 is this weekend. since i have seen every WrestleMania, i don't plan on ending that streak anytime soon. so, plenty of the next few blogs will have enough wrestling talk to drive you mad. i totally get it if you skip all that to find the other stuff. but, if you are interested in it, enjoy.
before i get to any of that, here are your videos for this day of National Poetry Month:
Smackdown was excellent last night.
the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony was good last night. it was long as fuck, but i figured it would be.
the Yankees won last night against Tampa Bay, 1-0. hopefully, they will win again this afternoon.
Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.
i did catch some of the NBA playoffs last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:

the NHL and NBA playoffs really get going today.
i do plan on watching NXT Stand & Deliver this afternoon. that should go right into night 1 of WrestleMania.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

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

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

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.

it snowed overnight here. nothing too bad, but i'm guessing it is a precursor of what is to come this weekend. i wrote 3 poems last night. 1 for the book and 2 for what i guess i am calling the general submissions folder. if i can keep this going, i might actually meet my goal of having this book ready to send to the publisher by late spring/early summer.
team USA defeated Switzerland yesterday at the World Juniors, 7-2. they will play Czechia on Saturday, who knocked out Canada last night for the second year in a row.

i have a doctor's appointment this afternoon. after that, i need to go to the grocery store to pick up my prescription and get whatever is on the list.
i will most likely be on here tomorrow in the morning. the Dayton Flyers play on the road tomorrow at noon.
i know we're supposed to have a big winter storm coming through on Sunday night. if that does happen, i'm guessing the grocery store will be a fresh slice of hell today.

i watched the Ohio State game last night, really hoping they were going to destroy Oregon and rub their noses in it. when Ohio State got up 34-0 i was so fucking happy. they ended up winning the Rose Bowl, 41-21. they will play in the semifinals of the college football playoff against Texas, which survived Arizona St, 39-31 in 2OT.
AEW Dynamite was good last night.
Orkin came out today to check the traps. i told the guy i think one of them went off as i could hear the trap hitting up against something in the attic. sure enough, there was one squirrel in one of the traps. he used some of my suet as bait to put in the other trap to see if anything else is up there.

amazingly, they had the trash and recyclables picked up before 11 AM today. now, i have to put all the plastics and cardboard that wouldn't fit because they forgot to pick them up last week, into the now empty bin.
i did write one poem last night for the upcoming book. i was hoping for more, but i think that might come tonight.
i am going to try to be on here tomorrow in the morning before my doctor's appointment in the afternoon. i think after that appointment i need to get the rest of the grocery shopping done.

i didn't get to sleep last night until 5 this morning. i did manage to write 3 poems last night. more on that in a bit. i woke up around 9:45 this morning and checked my phone. i believe the first words were what the fuck. being 48 years old, i'm no longer surprised by the violence, or the lack of humanity anymore. what really pisses me off anymore is how this country turns a blind eye to homegrown terrorists. we still operate with this mentality that our enemies are nations, etc. i always thought this was why we could never win in Vietnam. we don't understand guerillas or the lone wolfs that get radicalized. and we still don't. the Sugar Bowl tonight between Georgia and Notre Dame has been postponed to tomorrow night. i'm sure the death total will rise and lord knows how many IEDs they are going to find around the French Quarter. the terrorist in question is 42 years old and an American citizen. from Texas of course. just fucking crazy...
so, on the 3 poems i wrote last night. i need to write about 40 poems that will be for my new book, untitled as of now. John Patrick Robbins from The Rye Whiskey Review wants to publish a book of poems of mine. i have always enjoy working with JPR, so i am definitely going to jump at this opportunity. so, i basically am going to write poems for the book specifically that no one will see until the book is published. i also am going to try to write poems for the places i send to as well. what this actually means is i won't be sleeping for the next 5 months. good times.
i finished the grocery shopping yesterday and got home in time to watch the second half of Dayton vs. LaSalle. Dayton won the game 84-70.
team USA defeated Canada last night, 4-1, to win Group A at the World Juniors. the USA will play Switzerland on Thursday in the quarterfinals.
oh goody, now the FBI believes the terrorist, who was in the US Army by the way at some point, didn't act alone in this. why do i think this is now becoming an old episode of Homeland?
the college football playoff game last night between Penn State and Boise St. was won by Penn State, 31-14.
NXT last night was ok.
Hard Knocks last night was very good.
Texas is leading Arizona St. 17-3 at halftime in their college football playoff game today.

Ohio State tries to get its revenge today against Oregon in the Rose Bowl. winner will play the winner of the Texas vs. Arizona St. game in the semifinals of the college football playoffs.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i know at some point i need to get my driving license renewed before my birthday on the 21st. i also have a doctor's appointment on Friday. joy.
a big thank you to everyone for checking out my first published poems of 2025:
i hope 2025 is a great year for all of us. i know that is impossible as so many of us tend to slip through the cracks of this world. i just hope this blog can continue to be a little ray of whatever you need it to be to keep your head above water.

so, in some ways, 2024 was the year my writing finally hit the next level. the book i did with Casey Renee Kiser, Altered States of The Unflinching Souls, is something i am really proud of. you can still get a copy by going here:
i was nominated for a Best of the Net by Disturbing the Universe Magazine. and, for the first time in my life, i was nominated for the Pushcart Prize by The Rye Whiskey Review.
plus, John Patrick Robbins, the editor of The Rye Whiskey Review, and i are toying around with the thought of me doing a book in 2025 for his press.
add in me finally doing a few new SoundCloud tracks, and i truly hope this is a sign of things to come...
Manchester United lost 2-0 yesterday at home to Newcastle. honestly, it never felt that close. United, for the first time in my life, are in a relegation battle. hopefully, the players figure that out soon and start giving a shit again.
the New York Rangers lost last night at Florida, 5-3.
Monday Night Raw was really good last night. the show, for the first time in 32 years, will start on Netflix next week.
the NFL game last night was crazy. Detroit won at the 49ers, 40-34.

i need to go grocery shopping today and it is raining. joy.
Orkin came by last night and put two traps up in the attic. they could tell the squirrels are up there. they couldn't see anyplace where they are getting in and out of. hopefully, the traps will work. Orkin is supposed to be out later this week to check on them.
i should be on here tomorrow before the Ohio State vs. Oregon game in the Rose Bowl.
if you are going out to party tonight, please be safe.
i hope your 2024 was better than mine.

hell, i even had to put on sweatpants today. holy hell. it only got into the 50's today. it was rather blustery today when i had to go to Kroger to get my pills. i guess it is going to be like this for most of this week. joy.
well, yesterday didn't go how i wanted for the most part either. i need the worm to turn and quickly.
the Saints got beat yesterday at home by Tampa Bay, 51-27. amazingly, the Saints were winning at halftime. fuck me. they next play on Thursday at home against Denver.
the season finale of Big Brother went how i was expecting for the most part. Makenzie won the final HOH and then made the stupid mistake of taking Chelsie to the final, instead of Cam. if she would have took Cam, she would have won $750,000. instead, she takes Chelsie, loses 7-0 and gets $75,000. Tucker won America's favorite player, first time someone that didn't at least make it to the jury has won that. $50,000 for that award.
The Penguin was awesome last night.
Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Voice and Monday Night Raw.
the Yankees play Game 1 of the ALCS tonight at home against Cleveland. i'm hoping the Yankees will win.
the New York Rangers play at home tonight against Detroit.
a big thank you to everyone that checked out my latest published poem:
last night sucked for the most part. i can handle losing. i hate it, but i can handle it. what i tend to lose my shit on, is when one (or more) of my teams, beat themselves. yeah, it was one of those nights.
Ohio State lost at Oregon last night, 32-31. injuries and mistakes. that pretty much sums up the game.
the New York Rangers lost at home to Utah last night, 6-5, in OT.
the USMNT won last night against Panama, 2-0. it wasn't pretty, but it was a win. i'll take it.
Austin City Limits was good last night.
Saturday Night Live was hilarious last night. Ariana Grande is a natural for that show.

i'm sure i will watch some NFL games today as well as hockey, baseball and soccer.
i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
i did get our absentee ballots mailed out yesterday.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
my life has this uncanny ability to always swing the positive to negative and negative to even more negative with fucking ease. i'm not sure if it is because my inner child has to always be in pain. or, does my ego enjoy the suffering and rising above it. or maybe this is all i really know. happiness is fleeting. pain is real. loss is real. the sad thing is, i really want to be happy. have fun. enjoy what little life i have left. and no matter what i do to try to make sure these fairytales are possible, nothing works. this is why i have such a laid back fuck it view of life, etc. there is no point in me fucking it up more than i already have. i suppose this is my reasoning for just accepting the pain and learning how to live with it. joy.
the Yankees won last night at the Royals, 3-1, to clinch the series. they will play either Detroit or Cleveland in the ALCS.
Big Brother was good last night. Rubina got evicted. Chelsie won the first part of the final HOH. i fully expect Chelsie to win the show on Sunday.
The Old Man was excellent last night.

i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow.
i am going to try to sleep in my bed tonight. i have been sleeping in my massage chair for a month. i really need to just stretch out and relax and hopefully get some better rest. i'm hoping my bed will do the trick. my left arm has been feeling better recently, so i'm hoping i can sleep in the bed and not have the arm act up again because of arthritis or the pinched nerve. fingers crossed.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.
