Dice Diplomacy

I sort of buggered up yesterdays blog.  I was so excited to get an appointment at Ron the Bookie Barber in Madison I forgot to post the blog and when I did I decided to delete a rant I had about downtown Columbus being in a Catch-22. 

The question is  . . . Do you want an historic looking downtown with very few businesses?  Or do you want a vibrant downtown full of business but not as historic.  I know a very excellent company that decided to NOT move to Columbus downtown because of the signage and other building   restrictions. 

Pick a side - Business or Beauty.

The NY Yankees have been having a tough road trip.   First a game was delayed and will be completed the next day.  Then those 2 games are canceled because of weather and since they have a game in KC the next day they go to the airport but because of weather AND plane maintenance issues AND because all hotels are full, the teams spends the night in an airport LOL   

****************

I know nobody cares but my past two SOM games my team is 5 for 28 with runners in scoring position.  I won both games 6-3.  The last game I had 7 doubles and 3 home runs and scored 6 runs - COME ON MAN.   I was playing in Dodger Stadium, a pretty good park for home runs for lefties.  Pretty average for right handed batters.   Large foul territory so hits are way down.

The amount of foul territory is what determines if a park is a hitters or pitchers park. Foul outs really hurt.

There was a poll that was looking into how many people actually follow Trumps Tweets.  He has 52 million followers but it's not sure how many are actually in the United States (before the election it was noted that 15 million are from Russia) but the numbers come out to about 10 million people ACTUALLY read his tweets.  Very very few voters actually read his tweet diarrhea.

In other polls - 71% of Americans say we SHOULD negotiate with North Korea.

Then there is torture - pretty split  33% say yes, 33% say no and 33% say unknown.  Of course the right are all for torture and the left is against!  Go figure.

46% say they are good with Trumps handling of North Korea, as I am.   Hey - even a sex crazed female groping lying monkey can stumbling into something good. Of course we are just a hairs breath away from nuclear war with that bumbling buffoon but . . . . hey - toss the dice, see what happens right?  It's called dice diplomacy.   

Weird weather - all the states AROUND Wisconsin have been getting mega-rain storms while Wisconsin is actually getting LESS.  Wisconsin is the hole in the mega-rain doughnut.

Births in America are dropping.  2% less then the previous year. This is not an issue NOW but with more people dying in the US then being born and immigration coming to a stand still America is looking at an economic issue.  Immigrants buy things and boost the economy, pay taxes, are involved MUCH less crime AND work jobs lazy Americans won't do.

Predicting 8-18 inches of snow on this pass in Rocky Mountain National Park this weekend.  See you in a couple weeks!!  Hope the snow is gone LOL



 *************************

The only major thing in weather is Sunday sucking.  After today 3 cloudy days and then regular summer weather. upper 70s, low 80s and pop up showers every day for a few minutes.

BORING!

Have an outstanding weekend.
