so, my morning routine is after i take a piss, i take my blood sugar and then i start to open up the house. when i opened up the front door to let the breeze in this morning, there was a headless bird at the door. that brought me a laugh as that was a regular thing out at the farm. it is a little more unexpected when you live in the suburbs. i'm guessing a stray cat had a little snack overnight. i made sure to get it out into the yard, just in case someone comes up to the door.
yesterday was fucking crazy. i did get mom to her appointment on time. i think she was a little surprised when they told her she needed to have an EKG done. thankfully, that came back clean. her heart doctor is really pleased with how mom has recovered from her congestive heart failure.
after that, i got her back home and then i needed to do the grocery shopping. thankfully, the rain basically held off around here. between trips to the grocery stores, i went to the bank and got gas for the Highlander. all in all, i was tired as hell, but i got everything done.
now, i did miss all of the Manchester United game yesterday. it figures, they ended up beating Newcastle, 3-2.
the Yankees won last night at Minnesota, 4-0. they go for the sweep this afternoon.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i am running on fumes it seems. i really could use a coma. or just a really good night of sleep. but, considering i have been like this for over 30 fucking years, that boat has sailed. good times.
i did get mom to her appointment with the back doctor today. they are going to continue with her shots and probably start back up physical therapy soon. the shots do seem to help her. and she has done a decent job with her physical therapy at home. sad thing is she doesn't sleep worth a shit either. and being a fall risk... now you see my problem.
here are your videos for this day of Black History Month:
the New York Rangers won last night at home over Calgary, 2-0.
Monday Night Raw was very good last night.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:

on the DVR tonight will be NXT, the season finale of Inside the NFL and Name That Tune.
the Dayton Flyers play tonight at home against Duquesne. hopefully, Dayton plays better than it did at VCU.
i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.
a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poem:
we had a cold sunshine this morning. my bets in the Premier League shit the bed. and mom and i both needed to go to the bathroom at the same time this morning. oh joy. at least the toilet in the bathroom that is being remolded is still hooked up and functioning. our second bathroom is so fucking packed with shit, it is amazing either one of us fits in there to do anything. i did make it to Rite Aid and Lowe's today. i got my prescription at Rite Aid and mom got the paint she wanted for the bathroom at Lowe's. now, i'm hoping the rest of today will be relaxing and well shit, who am i kidding? it will be nothing but stress until wrestling starts tonight. and then, hopefully, i will be fucking entertained beyond belief.
here are your links for this day of Black History Month:
the New York Rangers got down last night in Edmonton, 4-1, in the first period. i was not happy. so, you can imagine the joy i had last night when the Rangers won in a shootout, 5-4. these are the type of games that make me think something magical is possible once again. they play tonight in Calgary.
the Dayton Flyers won last night at Loyola Chicago, 65-49.
Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both really good last night. i can't wait for the Elimination Chamber event tonight from Montreal. it should be fucking nuts.
AEW Rampage was very good last night.
Young Rock was pretty funny last night.
The 12th Victim was good last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.
Game Theory with Bomani Jones was excellent last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
nothing on the DVR tonight. i'll be watching WWE Elimination Chamber for most of the night on Peacock.
i might watch some of the NBA Saturday Night tonight. that includes the slam dunk contest, 3 point shootout, etc. here are some of the highlights from last night:
i have watched a little college basketball so far today. i will probably watch some more before i watch wrestling this evening.
i will most likely be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays in the morning. considering everyone that dropped points today, i really hope United wins tomorrow.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday.
until tomorrow kids...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
so, it got into the 40's today. everything started to melt a little. plus, it was trash day and i had to go to 4 different stores to get everything on the grocery list. and the only fucking thing i couldn't find was chicken patties. oh well. i did get some baseball cards today at Meijer. 35 cards for around $6. there was about $10 worth of cards in it. i also got a new binder to replace one of my old ones. the grocery stores were a bit nuts today. i swear, you would think the Bengals are in the Super Bowl or something. never seen so many people wearing Bengals gear in my life.
Manchester United drew 1-1 yesterday against Burnley. it never fucking fails. they play down to their competition every fucking chance they get.
NXT was excellent last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, AEW Dynamite, I Can See Your Voice and Celebrity Big Brother.
the Dayton Flyers play tonight at home against Duquesne. Dayton is a 13.5 point favorite tonight. i'll be watching on ESPN+.
i really need to go ice my back down. i know i must have walked a few miles today in the stores.
i should be on here tomorrow in the afternoon, probably sometime after the NBA trade deadline.
until then kids...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck the police.

stay healthy.
wash your fucking hands.
stay socially distant.

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 didn't say much about the school shooting yesterday in Florida because i quite frankly am just fucking tired of these stories. i'll never understand the need for semi-automatic weapons at all. i'll never understand how any crazy person can legally buy a gun. i'll never understand why the government doesn't have the balls to stand up to the NRA. i've already seen the asshole that runs this nation blame the students and neighbors that didn't say anything. i bet that asshole didn't know that the FBI knew about the shooter 6 months ago. and i can't wait to see how Trump blames this on Obama, not remembering that it was his FBI 6 months ago. and as always, the answer this government will come up with is we need more guns. i guess it won't be until one of their precious children gets slaughtered before it dawns on them that sensible gun control isn't a bad thing after all. of course, i'm wondering how many people need to die before that happens?
the bigger problem in all of this in my eyes is the mental health issues that this country continues to just sweep under the rug. we'd rather spend millions on new missiles than treatment programs or even the basic mental health shit. imagine if you'd take just a fraction of what this country spends on wars and spent that on after school programs and decent mental health programs. of course, you can't make any money that way and that truly is where the problem begins. capitalism makes any of this shit impossible, because you have to make money at every fucking thing you do. and if an industry isn't turning a profit, then it's a failure. it's this flawed view of the world that has this country so fucked.
and now for the conspiracy point of view... i read a story just the other day that gun sales were down and that Remington is filing for bankruptcy. and what happens after school shootings??? renewed calls for gun control and then a hysteria plan of saying the government is coming for your guns. anyone else surprised the NRA would tweet out a call to buy your loved one a gun for Valentine's Day after the school shooting had already happened? you shouldn't be surprised. the beauty of capitalism to some is there are no morals allowed. and it is these assholes leading this fucking nation.
but what should i expect from a nation stupid enough to elect a reality television star to be their president. these clowns wanted fucking chaos. that's exactly what they are getting. and i guess sweeps week must be starting soon... Stormy Daniels claims she has a dress with Trump's sperm on it. the asshole poet inside me smiles. my soul learned long ago that none of this shit matters. we're all just running out the clock, waiting for death.
the Dayton Flyers were awful last night, losing at George Mason 85-67. there's two hours of my life i'll never get back. i'm tempted to go to the game Saturday night just to fucking boo.
NXT was pretty good last night.
Celebrity Big Brother was pretty good as well last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and Lip Sync Battle.
the New York Rangers play tonight at the Islanders. i saw this morning that the rumor is their captain gave the team his 10 team no trade list. that's enough smoke to me to mean the wheels are in motion to trade Ryan McDonagh. if that does happen, given his salary and age, the Rangers should get back quite the haul. if they don't, i will be pissed beyond belief.
i am getting more into the Winter Olympics. basically the hockey is going on now, so i actually have something i want to watch.
i didn't sleep worth a shit last night. i might have got 4 hours at most. between the rain, my arthritis and my bad back... i think the only thing that might have put me to sleep last night would have been heroin.
mom has her physical therapy session this afternoon. i'm hoping i can write some more poems while i'm there. if i do, i'll get those typed up this evening.
i'll probably be on here tomorrow after a trip to the grocery store.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
from the title, you can imagine what happened as i tried to get to the bathroom this morning. i just love being sick. i am down 15 lbs. though, so i'm either losing weight or dying. i honestly can see the positives for both.
Monday Night Raw was ok but pretty boring for most of the show. i loved seeing the old Kevin Owens finally returning. and seeing just how athletic Braun Strowman is, push that motherfucker to the moon Vince.
Hate Thy Neighbor was pretty interesting. Sweden certainly looks like a place i could live, especially when the far left is the ones that beat the shit out of the Nazi youths.
Unlocking the Cage was very interesting last night. i think i ended up watching that more than wrestling actually. it could be an amazing world if the judicial system in this country ever catches up to science. i know, i started to laugh as well.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, WWE Smackdown and Taboo. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.
i'll be at the Dayton Flyers game tonight at home against George Mason. if they can get a victory tonight, it will be the senior class 100th victory of their careers and guarantee Dayton a double bye in the A10 tournament.
the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Montreal. hopefully the Rangers can start another winning streak.
