we had this spinning chime up by our garage. i say had, because the fucking wind brought it down today. when i woke up this morning, the feels like temperature was 8 degrees. good times.
i did send out some poems today. 5 to Horror Sleaze Trash (already heard back from them); 4 to Dumpster Fire Press and 1 poem (broken into 5 parts) to Synchronized Chaos. when i hear back from these places, i will pass along the verdicts.
the New York Rangers won last night over Washington, 4-2. funny, they get rid of one defenseman and another one gets hurt and now suddenly, the defense is playing better. imagine that.
the satellite was out for most of the night. i watched the hockey game on my phone. right around 10:30 last night, the weather cleared enough for the satellite to start working again.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
the season finale of Cari & Jemele Won't Stick to Sports was excellent last night.
Desus & Mero was fucking hilarious last night.
i found last night's episode of The Unicorn online this afternoon. it was good.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, Real Time with Bill Maher and Painting with John. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.
the Dayton Flyers play tonight at home against George Mason. it's a game Dayton should win, but that doesn't mean shit this season.
all the music today was found for FREE at Noisetrade.com.
i should be on here tomorrow sometime before Manchester United plays.
here are your links for this day of Black History Month:
i heard back from AG at Horror Sleaze Trash on my poetry submission from earlier today. my poems "with the blood of a virgin or two" and "the madness within" have been accepted for publication.
i had a choice today... either ice my back or put some poems out. i chose to ice my back and got a 2 hour nap out of it. good times. of course, that means the poems are going out tomorrow.
i got the mail today right before it started to snow again. i have no clue how much we are supposed to get. all i know, is it is currently fucking with the satellite feed. of course.
NXT was very good last night.
AEW was very good last night as well.
i did happen to catch NXT UK this afternoon. it was very good.
The Masked Dancer was good last night. i was correct on who was the Exotic Bird.
Name That Tune was very good last night. i think i might have only missed 3 songs for the entire show.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Cari & Jemele Won't Stick to Sports and Desus & Mero. i'll have to watch The Unicorn on demand tomorrow as our local CBS and DIRECTV are in a fucking dispute. i'm betting this shit will be settled by the time Super Bowl Sunday rolls around.
the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Washington. i'm hoping the Rangers find a way to win against a team that is way better than they are.
here are your links for this day of Black History Month:
i wrote a poem last night that i broke into five parts. it was the first time i have done that in years. i'm doing my next round of submissions either tomorrow or Friday.
the first two stops on the grocery shopping day were fine. i went to Rite-Aid to get a ton of stuff for mom. they didn't have any baseball cards there. so, i went to the one where i got lucky the last time, near the Kroger i go to. more on the baseball cards i found in a bit. as for Kroger. you would think a damn blizzard is coming or something. fuck, it was way too damn crowded for my liking, especially in a fucking pandemic. but, i got everything on the list, so we are stocked for weeks in my opinion.
as for the baseball cards, i paid $13 for 3 Fairfield boxes. i got 1 autographed card out of one box and all told, probably close to $50 worth of cards. not bad.
the Dayton Flyers started off like shit yesterday at Duquesne. and honestly, when the score was 15-3, i turned the damn thing off. the final score of 69-64 does no justice to the fact the game was never close.
here are your links for this day of Black History Month:
so, i spent this Groundhog's Day going to the bank to make a deposit and then going to Big Lots to see if they had any baseball cards. i had a 20% off coupon.
i got 4 packs of baseball cards. i found 2 short prints in the 2020 Topps Heritage packs i got. those are worth what i paid for all 4 packs. so, that made me happy.
i guess the groundhog saw his shadow so we have six more weeks of winter. who gives a shit.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.
The Investigation was awesome last night.
the New York Rangers came from behind last night and beat Pittsburgh, 3-1. addition by subtraction worked last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight.
the Dayton Flyers play tonight at Duquesne. i really hope Dayton wins and spoils the opening of Duquesne's updated arena.
here are your links for this day of Black History Month:
i should be on here tomorrow after i get all the grocery shopping done.
i got home today in time to watch Manchester United play. they absolutely destroyed Southampton today, 9-0. that was a joy to watch.
i got the trash and everything done while the sun was still out. our driveway is a mixture of ice and snow at the moment, so i wanted to actually be able to see what i was walking on.
that's all for me kids.
until tomorrow...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck the police.

we got a little more snow and i don't think the wind chill got out of the teens today. good times.
i did get my baseball cards i ordered today. i paid (with shipping, tax, etc.) $31 for the box and i probably got close to $50 worth of cards in it. that made me pretty happy.
WWE Royal Rumble last night was excellent. i picked the winner of the women's match correctly and i was slightly shocked when Edge won the men's royal rumble. but, that should make things interesting.
Axios was very good last night.
the two episodes of The Lady and the Dale were pretty fucking fascinating last night.
Shameless was fucking hilarious last night.
Your Honor was very good last night.
Batwoman was really fucking good last night.
Desus & Mero was fucking great last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and The Investigation. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.
the USMNT defeated TNT last night 7-0. i only got to see the highlights, but i am encouraged with what i have seen so far.
the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Pittsburgh. so, Tony DeAngelo cleared waivers and the team is currently trying to trade him. the GM has stated publicly he will never play for the Rangers again. this makes me happy. Kaapo Kakko is on the COVID list but he is feeling fine. the lineup tonight will have a new forward and new defenseman in it. i'm hoping the addition by subtraction works and they find a way to win tonight.
i did listen to episode 328 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:
i will probably be on here tomorrow after i make a trip to the bank. i wanted to go today but my back said no.
i also had a lovely conversation with this woman in New Jersey who believes we are in a relationship since we say hello to each other each morning. that made me laugh. it's painfully obvious the age difference. i believe she told she was 26. i told her i doubt that after this morning. it's really hard for me to believe at 45 that most women online aren't actually men from Nigeria trying to work a scam.
my poems "the 2020 election", "raven haired beauty", "some kind of loss or relief", "unless provoked" and "a difference of opinion" have been published at Synchronized Chaos. you can read the poems by going here:
i think we got around 3 to 4 inches of snow last night. not nearly the amount that some were saying. now, it might rain a little later and then go back to snow, so that's going to be sloppy as fuck if that happens.
Manchester United and Arsenal played a 0-0 draw yesterday. that's 5 points dropped in United's last 2 games. that's how you find a way to lose a championship.
the Dayton Flyers defeated Rhode Island yesterday, 67-56. Dayton was trailing at halftime by 3 points and started the second half on fire. what impressed me the most yesterday was Dayton's defense. they held Rhode Island scoreless for the first 12 minutes of the second half i think.
the New York Rangers lost in OT last night against Pittsburgh, 5-4. that's 5 fucking games in a row the Rangers have blown a 3rd period lead. i guess Tony DeAngleo and Alexandear Georgiev got into after the game. from what i have heard, Tony called him a commie and AG punched in the face. this morning, the Rangers put Tony on waivers and i am more than fucking happy his time with the Rangers is hopefully over forever now.
WWE Backstage was really good last night.
ROH was good last night.
Saturday Night Live was fucking hilarious last night.
Austin City Limits had the best of Spoon on last night.
enjoy some music:

on the DVR tonight will be Axios, The Lady and the Dale, Shameless, Your Honor, Batwoman and Desus & Mero. i'll be watching WWE Royal Rumble for most of the evening on WWE Network.
i was up pretty late last night getting some baseball cards together for another sale. i currently have a deal going on for 100 cards of your favorite team for $30. the cards are some rookies, some insert cards, maybe even some hall of famers, etc. i don't think i have the cards to offer this in football, hockey or basketball. but, i do know i can do that in baseball cards. so, if that is something that interests you, feel free to send me an email and we can talk about.
the USMNT takes on Trinidad & Tobago tonight in a soccer friendly.
hard to believe this is the last day of January.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hope your Sunday will be even better.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
until then kids...

it was somewhere around 20 degrees when i went out to get the paper and feed the birds this morning. i figured i better get some food out there before it snows.
Smackdown and 205 Live were both pretty good last night. i can't wait for the Royal Rumble this weekend.
Real Time with Bill Maher last night was excellent.
Painting with John was hilarious last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be WWE Backstage, ROH, Austin City Limits and Saturday Night Live.
Manchester United plays Arsenal today. given that United lost their last game, this pretty much becomes a MUST WIN game if they want to truly have a shot at the Premier League title this season.
the Dayton Flyers play today at home against Rhode Island. hopefully, they will keep up the momentum from their victory at Saint Louis.
the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Pittsburgh. hopefully, they can win a second game in a row tonight.
hopefully, i'll have 3 victory drinks tonight.
i'm not sure when i will be on here tomorrow. if we do get all the snow they are predicting, i'll be on here sometime after i get the chili on.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
the "experts" are saying we are supposed to get anywhere from 4 to 8 inches of snow this weekend. that would be way more than we have had for all of winter so far. i asked my mother if she needed anything today as i was going to get it today rather than try this weekend. she said no, so i guess it is time to get ready to see if these motherfuckers are actually going to be correct.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
the season finale of Total Bellas was good last night.
NXT UK was very good last night.
The Unicorn was hilarious last night.
Cari & Jemele Won't Stick to Sports was very good last night.
the New York Rangers won in OT last night over Buffalo, 3-2. Alexis scored his first NHL goal for the game winner last night. i'm really hoping that opens the flood gates for the kid.
i put my football cards into a better order last night. speaking of cards, i got lucky today and was able to order a 2020 Donruss Optic blaster box on the Panini website. it is becoming increasingly difficult around here to find really anything other than junk wax these days.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, Real Time with Bill Maher and Panting with John. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.
i will hopefully be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays.
if not before then, it will be after the Dayton Flyers game tomorrow.
i think the snow is supposed to start tomorrow night and into Sunday morning. if that does happen, i'll try to get some pictures of the snow.
i suppose i should try to put some bird food out before the snow really gets going.
that's all for me kids. today was one of those days where the bad back decided to only play along after a nice long session of ice in my massage chair.
until tomorrow...
fight the power.
fuck racism.

sometimes my back gets bad enough that i'll sit down in my massage chair, lean back, and just drift away. one of these days, i'm hoping that is how i die. today, it was how i took a long ass nap this afternoon. i must have slept for 2 hours or so. of course, when you only sleep 4 hours a night, it is bound to happen.
NXT was really good last night.
AEW was really good last night as well.

the New York Rangers play tonight at Buffalo. i'd love to see them actually play 60 minutes and win for a fucking change.
the mail was actually delivered this morning around 10 AM. i was shocked. then, i saw it was starting to snow and i realized why it was being worked so early. they are already so fucking far behind as it is.
f.y.i. if you happen to call me on my cell phone, please leave a fucking message. i'm blocking anyone who doesn't leave one as most of the damn calls i get are spam.
also, if you want my cell number, just ask.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
mom is starting to feel slightly better. i don't think it's Covid related, knock on fucking wood.

my day was actually going pretty good. i found plenty of baseball cards today (more on that in a bit), got all the grocery shopping done in time to get home to see Manchester United play. and then everything went to shit.
let's get this shit out of the way. Manchester United was playing the worst team in the Premier League today, knowing they needed a victory to go back into first place. so, of course, they play down to their competition and fucking lost, 2-1. kill me now.
i picked up a box of 2020 Topps Heritage High Numbers today at Meijer. got some new sheets for the cards while i was there as well. the Rite-Aid where i live had no cards at all. so, i went to the Rite-Aid where the grocery store i use is at and holy fuck, i got 2 Fairfield boxes of baseball cards and 1 Fairfield box of football cards. now, both of the baseball card boxes had relics in them. the football box had some really good cards in it. and the Topps Heritage box had some really good rookie cards in it and one short print. so, all in all, i think i got my money's worth today.
the New York Rangers lost last night to Buffalo, 3-2. i'm hoping one of these nights they actually just stop thinking and start playing and let their talent come through.
the Dayton Flyers lead from start to finish yesterday against Saint Louis. they won 76-71. it was Dayton's first win against a ranked opponent since 2015.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Masked Dancer, Name That Tune, NXT and AEW.
amazingly, they got the trash and recycling picked up before 11 AM this morning. they never have that done that early. i was pleasantly shocked.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i'm guessing it will be before the Rangers play tomorrow night.
i'm pretty happy with what the Yankees have done this offseason. if the new pitchers actually have something left in the tank, i think they will definitely have a chance to win it all this season, while being below the salary cap.
that's all for me kids. i have a dinner to go help make.
until tomorrow...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck the police.

mom wasn't feeling well today, so she cancelled her appointment for her injection into her back. so, that opened up my day completely and of course, depression said you aren't going to do shit today. now, much to his surprise, i did write and type up 5 poems. so, i did get something accomplished today.
i had to go into town to the post office today as i had some bills that i needed to mail. any other fucking day, the mail is never here before noon. and of course, the day i had to write some checks, it was here a little after 11 AM. fuck me.
thankfully, it did warm up some today and melt all the ice. joy.
Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight.
the New York Rangers play tonight in Buffalo. the injury bug has hit the team, so i'm interested to see what the new lines are going to look like tonight. hopefully, they can get a fucking win.
the Dayton Flyers play tonight at Saint Louis. it is their first game in over a month. so, i'm hoping Saint Louis is rusty as hell and Dayton feels like making a statement tonight considering the ass whipping they took at VCU. and considering Saint Louis is ranked in the top 25, it is one of the few chances Dayton has left this season to get a signature victory.
thanks for everyone that checked out my latest published poem:
when it gets really icy out here, my lazy ass just drives the Highlander down the driveway to get the mail or paper. i have no desire to walk in this shit and slip and fall. my back is bad enough already.
Manchester United defeated Liverpool yesterday 3-2 in the FA Cup. that made me very happy.
the New York Rangers pissed away two different leads last night and lost to the Penguins, 3-2. the kids are playing pretty good. the vets aren't doing much at all, in my opinion. i think the whole damn team tries to pass too much. time for the K.I.S.S. theory to be executed i suppose.
i did watch most of both NFL games yesterday. as a Saints fan, i truly hope the Chiefs beat Tampa Bay to death in the Super Bowl.
Shameless was very good last night.
Batwoman was excellent last night.
Euphoria was really, really good last night.
enjoy some music:

i did listen to episode 327 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:
i have to take mom to get her injection for her back at noon tomorrow. i'm really hoping the roads are at the very least cleaned off and the fucking parking lot isn't a skating rink. i told mom with me having a phone now, she can text me and i can pick her up at the door. that makes it much easier, especially in the winter.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
i'm hoping to maybe getting some poems written tonight. i've been messing around the last few days with haikus. hopefully, i turn that into something.
until tomorrow kids...
fight the power.
