But what really had me pulling the trigger was that they were expanding and purchasing companies for a world wide CBD oil distribution. They purchased a world wide distributor of morphine which the articles I was reading said they were confused to WHY they wold buy these guys. Seriously? Let's see. Morphine is used as a pain killer . . . . so is cannabis and MUCH MUCH cheaper a LOT safer and a real opiate killer. You can take opiate's and maybe get addicted . . . or some cannabis with zero physical addiction rates.
Now news comes out that Canadian cannabis oil exports quadrupled in 2017 (Germany, Spain, Jamaica, Chile and Brazil, and Australia). There are a lot of dire warnings about investing in cannabis as most companies are cash rich and don't need money. BUT - I figured the upside is so much greater then the downside. A person could lose everything he invested in . . OR could a person be investing at the start of a new big tobacco?
Think a person that invested in something like a Phillip Morris at the very very very beginning is regretting the risk?
ANYWAY - Canopy Growth (TWMJF) has had a pretty solid run so far. Purchased at about $22 a share . . . after yesterday it's $30.35. No complaints so far. LOL Of course it can go down JUST as fast. It's a pretty risky deal.

There are 779,000 known asteroids that orbit the sun clock-wise . . . . except for 95 that orbit counter clock-wise. Reminds me of the belt line in Madison on Saturday night.

Meanwhile . . in North Carolina police arrested two druggies that had 120 gallons of liquid meth in their gas tanks. Never tried it but that seems like a lot of meth. About 90.8 MILLION dollars worth. SOMEBODY is going to be pissed. Well done officers. Lock those guys up FOREVER.

OH - Brewers win and so far my BET AGAINST Arizona is working. With that said - it seems Americans are getting worse at sports betting or just more are betting. In 1992 casinos kept 2.81% of every bet. Last year 5.11%. More people betting is always good for casino's who don't care who wins as long as they get action.
OH - everyone talks about Hader, now the Brewers have Kneble back and nobody talks about Jeffries who is doing AMAZINGLY well.
he has given up ONE earned run this year and has a 0.35 ERA he has inherited 17 runners and only 2 have scored. Batters have a .057 batting average against him.
Meanwhile - the Brewers have given up the 3rd LEAST runs on average in MLB behind Houston and Arizona. GO BREWERS

MLB - watch out old guys! seems the older you are the less you can hit a 96 mph fast ball. There are 22 players that have seen 30+ 96 mph fast ball and have not gotten a hit. Ian Kinsler, Denard Span, Sean Rodriguez and Paul Goldschmidt have not hit a 96+mph fast ball yet the year.
Last year Chris Davis (.120), Mike Napoli (.123), Ryan Braun (.151), Jose Bautista (.165) and Ian Desmond (.178) had issues with 96+ mph fast balls. All over 30 years old.

Since 1931, 31 horses have won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness as Justify did last week. I wonder what my mom thought. She was always uncanny at picking horses.+++++
Does anybody else watch LOVE on Netflix? So so said that the series came to a conclusion. I will miss my friends. Not "canceled" just . . done after 3 seasons. and I am waiting for my favorite show to be canceled again - Timeless. The problem is that so many people believe this is one of the best shows on TV that people do not watch.
HECK - you even saw Lucy at the Royal wedding trying to stop Rittenhouse from murdering someone. You KNOW Wyatt and Rufus were not far behind.
I refuse to watch the 2 hour season finale' until I see if it is renewed. I know what happens and if I don't watch it it does not happen in MY brain.

So Sunday DJ and I are sitting on the deck drinking some wine when the sun pops out. All of a sudden the neighbors on BOTH sides of us are mowing the lawn. I kept thinking I should as everybody is TRYING to lower then mower from the top setting.
Well, I was so comfortable I thought I would wait a day. DAMN IT. The grass grew like 4 inches in the last 24 hours. I can't keep up!!
GUS THE WEATHER DOG SAYS - BORING
Today and tomorrow are the last days in the 70s for a long time. 86 by Sunday with pop up thunderstorms starting Friday but with a fair amount of sunshine.
Have a great day!
