WOW - that was quite a rant yesterday wasn't it - felt so so good to get some stuff off my chest. JUST WAIT - WHO is saying the world needs a Malaria vaccine roll out.
***** For those you will not read to the bottom - Badugi is an awesome poker game where the object is to make the best four-card low hand with one card from each suit. An unpaired hand containing a heart, diamond, club, and spade, is called a "Badugi". Hands containing pairs or multiple suits are considered 3-card hands. Badugi is also a triple draw game, so you have three chances to make the best Badugi. The Ace is considered the lowest card and the King is the highest card.
******************
Stayed up late late last night watching the Dodgers/Card game and was very satisfied with the outcome. If you were rooting for the Cardinals you have not been a Brewer fan very long.
You see I have Gallegos on my Strat-o-matic team (55-107 this year after winning the World Series last year) for a few years and love the guy and thought he would be the Cards closer. However, the team went with Reyes instead. Reyes failed and Gallegos was installed as the closer YEA!!
A few weeks ago before the Brewers decided winning was not a thing but rest was the Cards were beating "us". Gallegos was pitching great but got in trouble and the Cards bought in Reyes who was pounding his chest and just giving off a dick-like aura. First pitch HOME RUN Brewers win.
Last night the same thing was happening Gallegos pitched great, McFarland came in and got in trouble and the Cards summoned Reyes who AGAIN! pounded his chest and strutted like a king onto the mound to save the world.
I said - GAME OVER BAM home run!
Side note - Pujols - what a huge human being. How much does he eat in a day!
Meanwhile in the NBA. Teams that travel to Toronto. If you are unvaxed you are not allowed to leave your hotel unless it's to the game OR GET ARRESTED! LOL love it.
Mike Heller a sports talk radio dude that I really disagree with on most things is unvaxed. I like him even less now. Ever since 3 years ago. I remember this SO clearly as I was driving up the hill on Dix street he LITERALLY said.
Wisconsin Brewer fans WISH we have Joe Madden the Cubs genius manager as our coach instead of Council.
You want to know what brings on aneurysms? Sentences like that!
FIRST OF ALL. Joe Madden is a genius? second - all Wisconsin Brewers fans WISH we had Madden as a manager? What freaking cave does that dude live in. The guy is always saying what Wisconsin people think when THEY DON'T! It's not the first time he has told his radio groupies what we all think.
OK OK - I was on the twitter and reading some of his comments. snooze BTW - I have 32 followers now on Twitter @RodMelotte - mostly sports stuff but random thoughts from my tiny brain do leak out from time to time. Like misreading ZIP for TIP and giving Mooya Burger a $539.25 tip last Saturday. I got it back LOL
Gus the Weather Dog on Facebook has been in Facebook jail along with me. One month for saying "I would kick that guys arse" of a kid kicking a woman down an escalator. Of course I would probably get the crap kicked out of me but I Would feel better for trying !

some awesome news. As some know I have granddaughters on the spectrum. Bailey is 5 and does not really communicate with the world but is SLOWLY coming out of the shell. One word at a time.
One day the therapist was writing a report and she turns around and Bailey is reading a book word for word. IT SEEMS she reads at a 2nd grade lever.
MEANWHILE - Sydney 10, never said a word until she was about 4? When she was 7 she did nothing but watch youtube videos on - wait for it . . .chemical engineering and it seems she reads 2 grades about her level. And then there is Caydence, sweet sweet Caydence with Down Syndrome that is just a joy and headache at times but she has the innate ability to see the good and beauty in the world and just radiates joy and happiness.
I remember Sydney coming to an art fair a few years ago. She really looks at artwork thoughtfully. She was in another artists canopy and said "I don't like that" LOL At 8 she made a stop action movie with an iPad and legos and is an amazing story teller.
OH - speaking of storytelling.
My brothers hard cover book looks like spring to hit the presses. A gritty historical western, sort of a cross between Deadwood and Hell on Wheels. VERY researched, In fact next week he is traveling to Idaho Falls to research for book 2.
I might be mentioned along with the brewmaster at Ooga Brewing. One of the main characters came to America to make beer so he needed to know exactly what the beer making process was in the late 1800s. He then the hero travels by rail to the west and let the adventure begin. 367 pages in Book 1.
My moms book is at the Columbus Library SnapShots along the way: a lifetime of poetry currently ranked #72,940 in Poetry Books. She didn't publish it but I put it all together and self published.
Wild Things - by EV Melotte
I saw a lynx, he was trapped in a cage.for a lynx is a wildcat, and properly named,
as wild as I am, he cannot be tamed.
I saw an eagle, his feet in a chain.
