Good 45º clear and sunny morning.
Good grief, I slept like a rock and woke at 7:30!!! I only woke up because
Bruiser was up and tromping around on the bed! Get up mom!! Get up mom!!
Yesterday it slowly warmed up. By 2:15 it was 87º. Turned the AC on.
Ahhhhhh...... by 4:30 we topped out at 89º.
PICTURE OF THE DAY:
Buses at the ready, school starts today...
School already started for my grandchildren in California... wonder why they start so early, it was last month! After Labor Day was always the norm...
Love this... thanks Mike Cipolla!
"Don't move or the dog gets it!"
Last night was the Dodger vs Angels game. Look Brian, State Farm on camera
view all the time!
A new friend up here, who was a Dodger catcher from 1983-1987, Jack Fimple,
and then played for the Angels 1987-1989. He is funny. He calls me and says,
"This is your favorite Dodger!" Oh man, I low da Daa-yers! We don't talk that
often, only chats are because of All Natural Pest Control where he now works.
Found this about Jack on a blog written totally about the Dodgers..
Dodger Catcher Jack Fimple 1983
"No Dodger team has started so good since the Division Winning 1983 ball
club of Jack Fimple fame. Fimple? Yeah, a AAA catcher called up due to injury to
both Scioscia and Yeager who had a few heroic moments during his short major
league run."
Jack has a beautiful wife and gorgeous children! Lucky man, and he gets to
live in OREGON! AND he did give me autographed baseball cards!!!
Sooooooooooooooooooooo.......... last the Dodgers played the Angels. Both
of Jack's teams. Must have been hard to be loyal to either one! Interesting
that Mike Scioscia is now the Mgr for the Angels! Anyway, Dodgers won 7-5. It
was a 3 hour 52 minute game! I had FB messaged Jack's wife, Gillian, and they
were watching the game too. They had met when he was an Angel. (Hmmmm.... really? An "angel". LOL I guess, Gillian, that means he isn't an angel any more?)
LOL:
Today is a special birthday of a special friend, Ed Chenal (LASD ret).
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ED!!!!!
Yesterday I tried to re-group and get some thank you's done from my
birthday. I am so s-l-o-w~! Anyway, several taken care of and more to go. I did
get a nice note from our Congressman Greg Walden. He signed it and even wrote
"Happy 70th". Whattta guy. Here we are last year at the Ronald Reagan BBQ. Greg
is a real hero for the people. Fights hard for changes and things that need to
be fixed and getting government out of state's affairs and for our military!
Historically this date...
1883 – The Northern Pacific Railway (reporting
mark NP) was completed in a ceremony at Gold Creek, Montana. Former
president Ulysses S. Grant drove in the
final "golden spike" in an event attended by rail and political
luminaries.
1892 – The Pledge of Allegiance is first
recited.
... there is not enough room on
this page to state my anger with liberal left-wing socialist trash who have
caused the cessation of reciting of the Pledge of Allegiance in our
schools!
1975 – Gays in the military: US Air Force Tech
Sergeant Leonard Matlovich, a decorated veteran of theVietnam War, appears in his Air Force uniform on the cover of Time magazine with the headline "I Am A
Homosexual". He is given a general discharge, which was later upgraded to
honorable.
And births this date include....
1922 – Sid Caesar, American comedian
1925 – Peter Sellers, English actor (d. 1980)
1971 – David Arquette, American actor
Comb it, dude!
1981 – Jonathan Taylor Thomas, American actor
Dinner last night was leftover shrimp/veggie casserole I found in the
freezer, and more corn!
While I was fixing dinner, Bruiser was prone in the grass..
? He was either stalking or napping!
And Dude was just enjoying the evening without the cat bothering him while I watched the game and he listened ...
After the Dodger/Angel game I watched a Hallmark movie... "Just
Desserts".
Cute movie. Only person in it I didn't like was Brenda Vaccaro and her
HORRIBLE NY accent!
"A tweaked version of the classic New York accent. It is
adapted from one of the five boroughs of New York, Brooklyn. It is higher
pitched and nasaly. Its more laid back than a regular NY accent.
Example of a Brooklyn Accent: Instead of "park the car" it
would be "pahk da cah". Or instead of "coffee shop" it would be "cahfee
shahp"."
On the other hand Costas Mandylor was the love interest with Lauren Holly.
Interesting, he from Australia and had a really believable Italian accent in this
film!
All I know. Nuff said. Happy Tuesday. Ciao.
