Midweek

I guess I am weather happy and so is cousin Dean. It has been in the 90's here in the desert and it has been cold in Baltimore. We're both happy. His high temps are our low temps.

I spent Easter with Hilda and her mom at Hilda's daughter's house. This was Amanda's first chance at being a hostess ... she blew it big time. Hopefully, she'll get better.

Valdez sent me a quote today that I liked ... I am big on lyrics, poems, and quotes. It was from Ernest Hemingway, who said:
"I write the best that I can. Sometimes I write better than I can".

My other 2 favorite quotes of the weekend are:
"I'm so old that I no longer buy green bananas."
"Food has replaced sex in my life. Now, I can't get into my own pants."

I also heard one a week or so ago:
"I'm so old, that when I go out to eat... they want me to pay up front".

It is now Tuesday morning, I am getting ready to go to work. Listening to Boot Liquor radio on the computer and letting my huge breakfast settle. The man on the news says that our temperatures will be lowering on Thursday/Friday to the mid 70's, and getting really windy ... not good news. But it has been nice at night ... high 50's - low 60's.

Now it is Thursday afternoon, where did the week go? I cannot have been that busy I think. But, this is the first chance I've had to get back on the BLOG since Tuesday.

This weekend (day after tomorrow already) we are going to the Fiesta Grande in Barrio Hollywood from about 1000 till 1400 or so, then to the SAHBA Home Show at the Community Center, finishing off the night at the ABA Ampitheater at Casino del Sol for a Mexican music festival. I guess I will wash clothes and clean the apartment on Sunday. So much for time to chill out.

Don Imus got fired from the radio and the TV, but interestingly enough ..... the ?Rev? Al Sharpton and the ?Rev? Jesse Jackson ( I don't know where or IF they ever got Divinity degrees) still have their shows and they are constantly talking shit about the white race.... Conservatives in particular. [Al Sharpton was ordained a minister at the age of 10 by a family friend.] [Jesse Jackson never got a degree or an ordination as far as I have been able to ascertain.] White America has given up all rights to have opinions and or views on any subject unless they have been politically O.K.ed by some minority group. Take, for example, the Duke LaCrosse team. They will not be charged, their reputations and names have been dragged through through the mud of the press and public opinion and all they get is a "Gee, we're sorry, ... guess we were wrong. You can go on with your lives now (or try)." They had to hire expensive lawyers (are there other kinds?), give up their sport, their educations, et al. OOPS !!!!

Well, enough of my ranting for now.

PEACE
