so, i decided to get some shit done today. i shaved for the first time in months. i actually took five inches off of my goatee. when it gets long enough to be in my food, i know it is time to cut it back. i had to go to Kroger to return the conditioner i got for mom. she wanted a different kind. i figured once i got that done i would go to Great Clips and get my haircut. there was a bit of a wait at Great Clips even though i signed in online. as the shuffle worked out, Trinity was the one to cut my hair. she is this beautiful light skinned black woman that has the softest hands i have ever felt on my skin in my life. for that alone, she was going to get a good tip. i gave her a $10 tip on a $20 haircut. she was happy. i sent a pic of the new me to the muse. her response made me laugh. hell is going to freeze over. that made my day.

when the Rangers got down yesterday 4-1 against the Islanders, i wasn't happy. but, i didn't give up hope yet either. now, no team had ever come back from a 3 goal deficit while playing in one of the outdoor games. the Rangers coach had never won one of these games. but, the franchise is undefeated in outdoor games. thankfully, the Islanders made the mistake of putting the Rangers on the power play. the Islanders penalty kill is the worst in the league. honestly, it is worse than most teams i have seen in the lower leagues. the Rangers came all the way to tie the game at 5 in regulation. then, 10 seconds into overtime, Artemi Panarin ended it with one of the craziest endings in a long time. Rangers won 6-5, in OT. they are now 5-0 in outdoor games.
the Daytona 500 got rained out yesterday. so, they will race this afternoon.
Manchester United won yesterday, 2-1, at Luton Town.
i did watch some of the NBA All-Star game last night. the East won 211-186.
here are your videos for this day of Black History Month:
the season finale of True Detective Night Country was excellent last night.
Curb Your Enthusiasm last night was hilarious.
Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.
Hightown was good last night.
The Woman in the Wall was really good last night. the season finale is next week.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw.
nothing much going on today since it is Presidents' Day.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
until then kids...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i didn't get to bed until 5 AM this morning. so, i missed the start of the Manchester United game. when i finally did wake up, United was up 1-0 at halftime. i did watch the entire second half. Rashford scored twice today and Sancho added the third goal. United won 3-0. another clean sheet for David de Gea. i believe that ties the club record for that. next up will be the second leg against Barcelona on Thursday.
here are your links for this day of Black History Month:
i woke up this morning and my bad back said hello. i chuckled, knowing damn well i didn't have time for that shit today. and as usual, i'm fucking behind. joy.
i did go to Office Depot today. the ink i needed for my printer was all gone. i did get the computer paper i needed and a few other things. it sucks that this store is closing. when it does go away, the closest one to me will probably be a 30 minute drive. joy.
We Are the Dream: The Kids of the Oakland MLK Oratorical Fest was excellent last night.
WWE Backstage was really good last night. i am so happy for Keith Lee.
the Dayton Flyers won last night at VCU for the first time in 5 years, 66-61. Obi Toppin had his worst game of the season. thankfully, the entire nation is learning Dayton is more than just 1 player this season. Dayton is now 24-2, 13-0 in conference and on a 15 game winning streak. they play this Saturday at home against Duquesne.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Masked Singer, NXT, AEW and Miz & Mrs.
the New York Rangers play tonight at Chicago. i'd love to see them continue their road winning streak.
i will probably be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays in the Europa League.
until tomorrow kids...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i wanted to start this blog way earlier today, but with a big ass storm coming, i had to get some shit done today rather than tomorrow. i'm really thankful mom's ct scan didn't go that long at all. that gave me the chance to type up poems, go to the bank and get the trash done all before the storm. but, since Dayton plays Davidson here in about 20 minutes, there's no damn way this blog is going to be done before the game starts. so, you'll get the slightly distracted poet today.
i typed up the 11 poems i wrote yesterday late last night. i wrote 13 poems today while mom was having her ct scan. i typed those up after lunch at Waffle House. out of the 24, i do think i have some winners. i really should try to get another batch ready before the end of the month.
Monday Night Raw was very good last night. i loved seeing the guys from NXT up there and see them winning as well.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and Smackdown. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.
the Dayton Flyers play at Davidson tonight. i'd love to see Dayton win but i'm not counting on it.
the New York Rangers play tonight at Carolina. i'd love to see the Rangers win, but i'm not counting on that either.
i'm hoping to have the blog done before i take mom to physical therapy tomorrow at 4 PM.
we're supposed to get some heavy snow tonight and then freezing rain and then it will all melt with rain by tomorrow afternoon. i'm expecting just a fucking mess.
until tomorrow kids...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i had a line pop in my head yesterday that completely came out of nowhere... i once met Ezra Pound in a dream and he told me to fuck off. as soon as it popped in my head i started to laugh. i flushed that out and eventually wrote a poem, which gives me 30 for the month. that little inspiration got my ass in gear and today i sent out 20 poems. 6 to Record Magazine; 5 to Horror Sleaze Trash and 3 each to Pyrokinection, The Beatnik Cowboy and Rusty Truck. when i hear back from these places i will pass on the verdicts.
i did watch a little of the Daytona 500 yesterday. seeing the number 3 car in victory lane again certainly brought back some memories.
and i did watch a bit of the NBA All-Star game as well. i do like the new format, that's for sure. the game seemed much more competitive.
the New York Rangers lost yesterday 7-4. i have no damn clue why the coach left The King in for all 7 goals. at least they are continuing to tank the season now.
Our Cartoon President was hilarious last night.
Celebrity Big Brother was pretty good last night. i have no damn clue who is getting voted out tonight.
Homeland was pretty good last night.
The Chi was excellent last night.
Here and Now was fucking great last night.
Divorce was pretty funny last night.
Crashing was pretty good last night.
Last Week Tonight was fucking brilliant as always last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Celebrity Big Brother. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.
i do believe that the USA men's hockey team plays tonight against Slovakia. they will have to win that game and win tomorrow if they want a chance to play for a medal. i know the women's team will be playing Canada for the gold medal in a couple days i think.
i might watch some of the Winter Olympics tonight. especially if i can't sleep like last night.
it's been really muggy the last few nights. perfect if you like sleeping with a shotgun in your mouth.
i'll be on here tomorrow before i have to take mom to physical therapy.
i hope everyone had a great weekend. hopefully some of you actually got to enjoy a 3 day weekend.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
when Manchester United was trailing 1-0 to Blackburn today, i was not happy. Blackburn is not good, not good at all. thankfully, Marcus Rashford scored to equalize by halftime. things started to drag in the second half, so bring on the super subs... Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. sure enough, those two would join up for the eventual game winner. Manchester United won 2-1. they have advanced to the quarterfinals of the FA Cup. their reward will be a game at Chelsea in the next round. oh joy.
the New York Rangers defeated Washington today 2-1. that was a nice way to kick off Hockey Day in America.
ROH last night was really good. i love that Christopher Daniels is still as good as he is today as he was 15 to 20 years ago.
the NBA Saturday night festivities were ok last night. the 3 point contest was good. the dunk contest was boring. and i love that the big men seem to always beat the guards in the skills competition.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Homeland, Billions, Big Little Lies, Girls, Crashing and Last Week Tonight.
i will probably watch a little bit of the NBA All-Star game tonight as well.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully your Sunday will be even better.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
after i got in from feeding the cats i told my mother we weren't going to go to the basketball game tonight. she didn't want to go last night but i insisted that we would be. that was, until i actually went out into the cold. holy fuck! it's really fucking cold. i believe i was outside when we hit our high of the day, 7 degrees. with the wind, it felt like a balmy -25. with my bad back and my shitty pinched nerves and my mother's general hatred for the cold, there's no point going out when the game is on television.
so, that does alter my plans for the evening. the Dayton Flyers basketball game starts at 6. the New York Rangers play at 7. The Big Bang Theory is on at 8. so, it looks like i'll have a busy night in front of a heater and a tv.
how i didn't see any dead cats today is truly beyond me. of course, i only saw 12 of the 20. either the rest are hiding or have taken that long nap where i can't find them.
i figure what i might also do tonight is start packing some shit. i guess that's what you do when you move. i haven't had to do that since 1997.
Lucha Underground was excellent once again last night. here are some highlights from the show:
i had to change the water filter in the cellar today. the rust in our water is getting out of hand. of course, the only filters i have are ones that just take way the sediment. they don't do anything for smell. so, i'm really looking forward to my shower here in a few minutes.
can you tell i'm getting sick of the farm yet?
watched a little of the NBA trade deadline coverage today. i wish Sacramento would have done more, but at least they have a great head coach again. hopefully George Karl can get them back to being relevant once again.
that's all for me today. i will be on here sometime tomorrow. mom has to take the car in to get some basic shit done to it. i have no clue if she's getting a rental or not. so, i'll be home alone for a little while tomorrow. everyone knows what that means... porn.
i hope you are warm wherever you are. and if you're not warm, hopefully you are drunk. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

my mother surprised me today by deciding that she wanted to blow off the afternoon and go out to lunch. and then i happened to remember what day it was. today marks 12 years since my stepfather has passed on. i figured i better be on my best behavior as this day is very hard on her. we had a good lunch, though the place we wanted to go to was crowded as hell. so, we stopped by the sports bar we seem to be going to more often these days. they weren't that crowded but had only 3 waitresses working. damn good thing i was blessed with patience. after that, we did a little grocery shopping and came back home. i'm trying to give her some space as i fully understand there is no timetable or rules to the grieving process.
the Dayton Flyers fell into the same fucking hole they have fallen into so many times this season. once again starting a game with their heads completely up their fucking asses. the only difference this time, they picked the wrong team to fall behind. St. Joe's beat the living shit out of Dayton last night, 79-53. and quite honestly, it never felt like the game was that close. honestly, i didn't watch much after the 8 minute mark of the first half. and i doubt i missed much at all. they play Saturday at home in a MUST win game. i'd like to go and try my neck out at the game. all depends on the weather and how i'm doing. stay tuned.
so, by not watching basketball last night i did watch all of The Voice. i felt like the talent on night 2 was better than night 1. i don't have a favorite yet, though i do enjoy the chemistry between these 4 coaches much better than the original 4 coaches.
as for tonight, i have a couple of shows on FXX i want to watch, Legit and Ali G Rezurection. those both look funny as hell. i imagine i might squeeze in some Duck Dynasty, but if i can't find the time i won't be crestfallen. and as always, a little hockey and maybe some basketball. fantasy hockey is back in full swing, so i have to be on the ball for the push to the playoffs.
after i got home from the grocery store, i sent out 9 poems. 3 each to The Camel Saloon, Dead Snakes, and Pyrokinection. when i hear back from these places i will pass along the verdicts.
my disjointed sleep continues. after i took a shower last night i sat down in my chair to watch the news. next thing i know, it's 2:30 in the morning. so, i made a quick trip to YouTube to see what i missed. this looks like the only thing i really should have stayed up for:
i laughed my ass off at that.
that's all for me today. i hope this finds everyone well. until tomorrow bitches...
