Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays!

Christmas decorations up, chocolate covered pretzels, and Russian tea cakes bought and/or made, and eaten. Presents under the tree, Christmas cards sent, and Christmas specials watched. Now listening to my Heavy Metal Xmas... And Headbanging New Year CD. Some people like to listen to Mariah Carrey sing Christmas carols. I prefer Lemmy Kilmister, Ronnie James Dio, and Tim "Ripper" Owens. I don't listen to metal cause I'm mean and angry fine people. It's cause it rocks, hard! haha. 

 

Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays everybody. PS. Christmas sweater pic...PULLING...IT...OFF! LOL.

2020 Sports and COVID?

So as a sports fan, with the way 2020’s going on, I have to ask myself a few questions.

1) If COVID is as bad as everyone says it is, then why are they playing games in the 1st place, if you care so much about player safety?

2) Since football coaching is 1 of my many possible “careers”, and I know a who’s who of KC North Metro coaches whose high school seasons have been canceled. As well as having every college conference start at different times within the duration of the season, how can you gauge a true national champion in college when teams aren’t even playing the same amount of games?

3) These are all honest questions that I’ve asked myself over the year. I knew I wasn’t being a hypochondriac about COVID when a high school buddy of mine who is a coach for a Major League Baseball franchise contracted it. I myself had an unofficial meeting with an NFL franchise axed because of it, so something is definitely going on.

Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day

On this day, in 1941, Pearl Harbor was attacked, which led to the United States entering World War II.

With today being the 79^th anniversary of this horrific, and history making day. I’d like to give a big shout out and thank you to all those of “the greatest generation” who sacrificed their lives, and their mental and emotional well-being for the safety of this nation, and other freedom loving nations around the world.

My thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of those who didn’t make it home, as well as those still living who spent their golden years fighting evil incarnate.

If it wasn’t for all of you, people of color, people of Jewish descent, and any other type of people deemed not fit to live, especially people deemed disabled, such as myself would not exist if Hitler, Mussolini, and Stalin as well as others like them, remained unopposed. There are not enough words in any language to be able to express my deepest gratitude for what you all endured on behalf of the rest of us.
