My Blather On.... Length of Baseball Games; April 8th

..and Removing The "Bo-o-o-o-oring" Factor!
    Years ago~back in the late 70s; early '80s~I used to attend Sunday KC Royals' home games.  I'd take my 12-year-old charge, "Mysti" cuz [then] Royals Stadium [now: Kaufman Stadium] was less-than-an-hour ride on my ol' Suzuki 750cc 'Water Buffalo.'  At that time I never thought that MLB had a "boring" factor.  I enjoyed both the game itself, the hot dogs and sodas as well as watching all the kids having the times-of-their-lives... and besides that.... it only cost a "buck-ana-quarter" to get in!!
    Today the game is entirely different.  It seems to take 'forever' to complete one!  But I have a cuppla suggestions to help the game along:
  • 1.  Teach every player [and test 'em on this] how Velcro works!!  Once they learn, they won't have to adjust the dam' battin' gloves after each pitch!
  • 2.  Teach every player [and test 'em on this one too] how a jock-strap works and what the possible benefits are.  Once they get their nuts in place, there should be no need to adjust them after each pitch!
  • 3.  [Bonus] Allow each batter only two "step-outs" at each plate appearance, of course excepting injury... and no, a miss-placed testicle is NOT an 'injury!'
That's all I got.

STILL More "Lovely" Crap

"Lovely" Crap-Gets Crappier     Rather than me going through all the on-going " Lovely " crap in my less-than-stellar style, why don't we just let Bob Lonsberry explain it.  The saga of " Uncle Reggie " is dealt with in  Bob 's ' bare-bones ' style,  here .     For my two-cents, I think Ms Warren has a lot of " wayward Kenyan " in her i.e., she thinks far more highly of herself and her importance to the whole scheme of things than does practically anyone else! That's all I got. Til Nex'Time.... Justin Case

This 'n' That, December 16th....

  Biden's Jis Plain Stoopid     We all remember "Mayor pete," right? I sure as hell do, he impressed me as a lil' twurp with nota helluva lot to say of import.  Now "the big guy" is proving himself dumb enough to appoint lil' petie to the head of the Department of Transportation.     That will put petie incharge of all things airplane, all things trucks, all things highways; all things ocean-going; amongst many, many other things.  Yrs ago, I was a truck driver-in fact I even owned my own tractor [the 'truck' part]-so I kinda know abit from which I speak.     Someone of the LOI crowd is likely to ask lil' petie..... "What's the biggest problem facing the truck driver today?" He's likely to say something to the affect; "The trucks are too fast; or, the trucks are too heavy; or the trucks are always in the way......"  Not so!!  The greatest problem-nationwide-is TRUCK PARKING!!  I left over-the-road freight relocati...

This'n'That; June 20th; Military Budget UNFAIR to Troops

Why Must Military SUFFER For Defending Us/US?!?     I've not been fond of the Congress~ of either political party ~particularly in the way each treats our military men, women and their families... mostly like SHIT !  One can easily research the pay, perks, allowances and SCAMS allowed for the congress, the various branches of government and the various departments of said branches.  They~ federal appointed and, or elected workers ~certainly do not suffer at the will of someone they have little knowledge of, determining the value of everything from Valor, Bravery, Devotion, Determination, Tenacity, to just-plain ' performance-of-duty !'  There have been several~ maybe many ~gaps in the advances of military pay and allowances to keep up with inflation [ prior to the raise in 1963, the last raise was in JUNE, 1958 !  How many of these ' congressional SHITBAGS ' would'a stood for no pay raise FOR FIVE YEARS ?]     Those of the federal governm...
