so, this happened last night...

 i was on the phone with the muse and i was by the back door of the house. i could hear the squirrels going nuts. i went outside to see if i could see what the fuck they were doing, since it sounded like they were on the roof. i got over to the side of the house and could really hear them. i looked up and there is a fucking hole in the siding underneath one of the roof lines. fuck me. it sounded like there was a fucking family up there, again. i told mom about it last night. i'm hoping i can get her out there so she can see it for herself. i can't tell if the hole came from storm damage or the squirrels just ripped the fucking hole themselves to get back inside. so yeah, not good.


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







AEW Rampage was ok last night.



Big Brother last night was the look back episode. the bloopers were pretty funny.


Real Time with Bill Maher was good last night. i hate when he has the right wing nut jobs on the show as all they do is try to explain Trump's bullshit and how it would actually be best for the country. ANYONE with a fucking brain and can see that bullshit.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live and Austin City Limits.


Ohio State plays tonight at Oregon. hopefully, Ohio State will win.



the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Utah.


the USMNT plays tonight against Panama. this will be Pochettino's first game as head coach of the team.





i'm sure i will watch plenty of college football today.


the Dodgers won last night at home against the Padres, 2-0. the Dodgers will play the Mets in the NLCS. 



the Yankees will play the winner of Cleveland vs. Detroit in the ALCS.


i should be on here tomorrow in the morning, before the Saints play Tampa Bay.


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 off the fucking streets.

sometimes, luck does play a role...

 so, i had to go out and get some stuff for my mother today. i figured fuck it, i might as well try to find some baseball cards as well. no luck at either Rite-Aid i went to today, though i did find everything my mother needed. i went to Big Lots hoping i would find something. i found the cookies my mother wanted... as i was waiting to checkout, i looked to my left and saw an Upper Deck logo. i had never seen these cards before. fuck it, i bought 5 packs of them. 2019 Upper Deck Goodwin Champions. i didn't think much of the cards until i pulled 2 Luka Doncic cards. i looked those up on Ebay and they are going for over $30. well, shit. i also pulled a Wayne Gretzky card out of a pack that is going for more than $10. ok, that works.


i switched it up last night and decided to watch The Voice first and record Monday Night Raw. that way, i could fast forward my way through Raw and cut out all the shit that bores me these days. trust me, it was most of the show.










as for The Voice, i thought it pretty good last night.







the finale of The Investigation was excellent last night.



Beartown was fucking great last night.


enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Voice and Dark Side of the Ring: Confidential.


the New York Rangers play at Pittsburgh tonight. hopefully, they will get a better result than Sunday.


the Yankees lost today 6-5 to Detroit. and of course, just like the last 3 seasons, the injury train has begun. this time, Zack Britton.



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


that's all for me kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck the police.


black lives matter.


stay healthy.


wash your fucking hands.


wear your mask.

i am tired of being right...

i wrote yesterday that i thought the Ohio State game was going to be a trap game and sure enough... Purdue beat Ohio State last night 49-20. i honestly didn't watch much after the 3rd quarter. i was just too fucking angry. now Ohio State has to think about that game through their bye week. oh joy.

i did watch some of the Lakers vs. Rockets last night.

Austin City Limits was pretty good last night.

ROH was good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be America to Me, Shameless, Kidding, The Deuce and Camping.

the New Orleans Saints play this afternoon at Baltimore. i think the Ravens are the one team in the NFL Drew Brees hasn't defeated. hopefully, that changes today.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Calgary. hopefully, the Rangers will get a victory in regulation tonight.

i will be on here tomorrow sometime after my physical therapy.

i hope everyone had a good Saturday. hopefully, your Sunday will be even better.

happy Memorial Day

i hope everyone has a very happy Memorial Day. my thanks to everyone who has died for this country. my hope is that no one will have to die for it again, but i know that's not possible. at least not until humans no longer exist.

i sent out 16 poems this morning; 6 to The Chicago Record and 5 each to Easy Street and Otoliths. when i hear back from these places i will pass along the verdicts.

the New York Yankees got the first career grand slam from Aaron Judge yesterday to beat the A's 9-5. they start a series at Baltimore this afternoon.

i did watch a little of the Indy 500 and Coca-Cola 600 yesterday.

Silicon Valley was hilarious last night.

Veep was even more hilarious last night.

Twin Peaks was an excellent mindfuck once again.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Gotham. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

the Stanley Cup Final starts tonight. i might check out a little bit of the game.

my one Memorial Day tradition is watching the NCAA Men's Lacrosse Finals. i will be watching that later today and for the first time ever, Ohio State will be playing in it.

my mother actually got some good sleep for a change. i know she's really looking forward to the bandages coming off. maybe then she'll feel good enough to sleep in a bed instead of the recliner.

i don't mind having my sister here, i'm just concerned if she actually knows there is something other than Golden Girls on the television. you would think she wouldn't continue to watch it after i bought her every episode for Christmas a few years ago. oh well.

i hope everyone has a wonderful Memorial Day. if you are actually enjoying the long holiday weekend, take it easy. for the rest of the world, hope you have a good Monday.

just a miserable night

to say i was deeply disappointed after watching the New York Rangers lose last night would be an understatement. everything was set up for them to make a run this season. and once again, shitty coaching does them in. i only want the team to do 3 things... 1) a new coach 2) find centers that can win faceoffs 3) realize there are no more years of The King's career to piss away. and if the Rangers are going to get a new coach, i suggest they move quickly and do it before the draft or the same shit will happen again next season.

the New York Yankees got an early lead yesterday and then CC puked all over himself in the second inning, giving up 5 runs and that was pretty much the end to the winning streak. the Yankees lost 5-3. they are off tonight and start a 4 game series at home against Houston tomorrow.

The Voice pretty much went as i hoped last night. the two people that left were the two that i liked the least on the show. that is usually what happens with team Adam it seems. the semifinals next week should be amazing.

Deadliest Catch was pretty good last night. it's obvious that sobriety and Captain Keith don't get along just yet.

Smackdown was good last night, even though it could have been better.

205 Live was really good last night.

my good friend John Sweet posted a photo this morning with the caption You Will Live to See Democracy Die... after what Trump did last night, i imagine so.
be sure to check out John's amazing blog: the bleeding horse, avenged

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and the season finale of Total Divas. i'll watch NXT this evening on WWE Network.

i might watch the two Game 7's tonight in the NHL playoffs. or i might not.

i did shave and get a haircut today. i got lucky on the haircut. they were having a sale and i got the cute one i like at the place i go to to cut it. she got a very nice tip, just not the tip i would like to give to her. i don't think her husband would approve.

i also took mom to the drugstore today. that might be one of the last times she goes somewhere other than a doctor's office before she has her hip replaced.

all the music today is FREE music i got on NoiseTrade. i'll post the links below in the music section.

Trump firing the FBI director did not surprise me. he's only acting like most billionaires do. the only purpose of having fuck you money is to do whatever the fuck you want whenever you want to. now, sure Comey was probably getting closer to proving the link between the Russians and Trump, but you surely wouldn't think it's a cover up. that is until the meeting today with the Russians (that the American media was not allowed to see but the Russian media was) and then a nice photo op with Henry Kissinger. nothing screams fuck you than right after being compared to Nixon you show up with his right hand man. coup completed. i hope all you dumb fucks that voted for this enjoy it.

i believe it's going to rain soon. that's what my bones are telling me.

i'll be on here tomorrow probably after i send out some poems and most likely after Manchester United plays their most important game of the season.

not the best time to get a cramp

so i watched a woman with an amazing body strip last night online and started jerking off. a few minutes into it, instead of feeling jubilation, i had a pain in my side. as soon as i stood up, it went away. odd. so i went to the bed and resumed and got the same damn pain. well, fuck it. i couldn't even find the pleasure in the damn pain. worrisome to say the least. but, at the very least i will get some damn poems out of it.

NXT was really good last night.

Total Divas was fucking hilarious last night. if i'm ever in Las Vegas, i hope i run into Renee Young.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Big Bang Theory, Life in Pieces, Fuck, That's Delicious, The Pizza Show, Lip Sync Battle, Caraoke Showdown and the return of Baskets.

the New York Rangers play tonight in Toronto. it would be nice if they could end their losing streak sometime soon.

i won't get to watch any of that tonight until later as i will be at the Dayton Flyers vs. Richmond game. the game is on ESPNU this evening. hopefully Dayton can win and get a share of first place in the league.

i have to take mom to get some copies done later today. hopefully this is a sign that's she's feeling good enough that she actually feels like being in public. i'm interested if she's going to use the walker like i have made her do or will she use the cane now.

i did listen to the latest Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast late last night. i really enjoyed the excellent interview with Shawn Michaels. you can find the podcast by going here:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/sam-roberts-wrestling-podcast/id934576040?mt=2

the funny thing about tomorrow being inauguration day is it would have also been my grandmother's 105th birthday. i imagine her laughing her ass off that Trump is going to be president, but mostly because she was so mentally ill at the end of her life that she wouldn't have a damn clue what was going on. and now i think i know why so many people died in 2016... soothsayers.

i haven't had any alcohol in a few days. i'm a little edgy. hopefully Dayton will win tonight and i will get to see how the new drugs i'm on interact with it. at least i'm smart enough to not take the drugs with alcohol, at least for now.

welcome to the afterworld

part of me wishes i was watching the Cubs victory parade right now, while the rest of me knows what it feels like already. but the greedy fucker in me always wants to win.

the grocery store went pretty good yesterday. i was somewhat stunned when this woman started talking to me. of course, it was over food for type 2 diabetics... i didn't really get a good vibe from her after our little conversation. that was affirmed to me when she saw me later in the store and looked away quickly. i caught a break on getting out of the grocery store though. instead of waiting in one of the 3 long ass lines, i just happened to get up there as one was opening up. that meant i got home in time for the hockey game.

the Rangers and Oilers played a back and forth game last night. thankfully, the Rangers got a lead late in the 3rd and held on to win 5-3. that's the good thing about offense sometimes, it can always bail you out.

The Big Bang Theory was hilarious last night.

Life in Pieces was hilarious as well last night.

Better Things was great last night. i can't wait to see the season finale next week.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NJPW, Real Time with Bill Maher and One and Done: Ben Simmons.

i will be at the University of Dayton tonight watching the Dayton Flyers play their exhibition game against Findlay. for the first time ever, Dayton has sold out an exhibition game, so it should be crazy. there are a ton of expectations this season. hopefully the seniors can lead them to another great season.

i need to get ready to take mom to her doctor's appointment. i'm hoping this gets the ball rolling for her to get some treatment to actually get her back working like it should again.

i hope everyone has a great weekend. take it easy and then take it again.

idle thoughts on a cloudy day

i think i woke up every 2 hours or so last night. i knew it was raining and i was having some weird ass dreams. ex-lovers trying to kill me with the bones of animals, movie stars complimenting me on my poetry, a woman cornering me in the grocery store to show me a birthmark of my beard on her ass... you know, shit like that. today has been one of those days where i'm just swimming in the void, hoping to either hit shore or just fucking drown already.

the New York Rangers got scored on 10 seconds into the game last night. it was 2-0 by the end of the first period. i was not a happy man. 5 consecutive goals later, i was feeling much better. the Rangers beat the Bruins last night, 5-2. it's odd to actually see a power play that works. i don't think i've seen that on a Rangers team in over a decade.

i did catch the last few minutes of the Sacramento Kings defeating Phoenix 113-94 last night. i guess they actually played some defense last night. that's what has been missing for years. the home opener is tonight against the Spurs. if they somehow win that one and i might drink myself blind.

Vice News Tonight was excellent last night.

Lip Sync Battle was fucking hilarious last night.

American Horror Story was great last night. that was the bloodiest episode i can ever remember in the history of the show.

You're The Worst was awesome last night. it's the second time this season they have devoted an entire episode to minor characters. i wish more shows took those chances.

Any Given Wednesday was really good last night.

Total Bellas was kind of depressing last night. i sort of know the kind of shit Daniel Bryan is going through. depression is not an easy thing to handle, especially when you're being filmed at the same time.

NXT was really good last night. i can't wait to see Mickie James take on Asuka. and the second round of the Dusty Rhodes tag team classic looks to be very interesting.

Lucha Underground was very good last night as well.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Big Bang Theory, Life in Pieces and Better Things.

i decided to be a little productive today, so i actually took a shower and am currently doing my laundry. good times.

i listened to the latest Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast today. yet another great episode. you can find it by going here: http://notsam.com/wrestlingpodcast/2016/10/27/wrestling-podcast-105-adam-rose

i got some great FREE music on NoiseTrade today. the link will be below in the music section.

i'll probably be on here tomorrow after going to the grocery store. i need to get the essentials; spiced rum, Jack Daniels, etc.
