It's snowing

Okay, it's not snowing hard and I'm not rushing into my garage to break out The Beast but it is the first snow of this winter season.

The Bruins lost to the Rangers this afternoon.

After handing the Sabres a beat down the other night, I was hoping they would continue their excellent play and take care of the Rangers. But it wasn't to be.

They were tied 2-2 going into the third period and that was all she wrote for the Bruins. The Rangers scored three goals to the Bruins no goals and won the game 5-2.

Next up is Vancouver on Sunday.

The Bills beat up on the Saints yesterday giving them a tie with the Patriots in the AFC East.

The Patriots take on the Titans this Sunday and I'm concerned. The Titans are on a roll.

Hopefully Jones moves the Patriots offense down the field and into the end zone while the Patriots defense does it's thing and makes life hell for the Titans offense.

Today was Day One of our Thanksgiving. Tomorrow is a break in the action and then Saturday is Day Two.

I hope you all had a good day. I know I did.

  Well, that and my bad back.

My arm did not hurt

Too be honest with you, I fully expected to have a difficult time sleeping last night because my arm hurt but that was not the case.

No sir, not the case at all.

I had a difficult time sleeping because I'm old and I have to get up three or four times a night to go to the bathroom.

My arm felt fine.

The Bruins are in Buffalo to play the Sabres.

They better win this game.

Those three scumbags who used their pickup truck to chase down and execute that unarmed kid have been found guilty of murder.

As I said before, sometimes our court system functions correctly.

And if you think for one minute that shooting an unarmed person with a shotgun is not murder most foul then you should re-evaluate your knowledge of right and wrong.

I'm going to watch some hockey (the Bruins are up 4-1 after the first period).

You should watch whatever you feel like watching.

I'm boosterized

My wife and I ran over to the local CVS and got our covid booster this morning.

So far, my arm does not hurt but I suspect that will change tonight. The last two times I got this shot, my arm hurt like someone had hit me with a baseball bat.

When I saw this picture, all I saw was someone screaming, "Hey everybody! Look at me!"

What's with the big emblem on the apron? Does he feel like he needs to remind people he is the president?

⧫
One of The Bills (my lunch buddies) tested positive for covid this past weekend. Seems he got it from his grandson.

He says both he and his wife got the J&J vaccine back in March but no booster shots.

Hopefully they both glide through this without any problems and we get back to going out for lunch soon.

They got shut out

The Bruins couldn't get their act together last night and got their ass handed to them by the Flames. They lost 4-0 and they are still in 5th place in the Atlantic. If the season ended today, they would not be one of the wildcard teams.

I don't want to be a downer here but if the Bruins keep playing the way they are playing, I won't have to worry about any post-season hockey games interfering with next season's baseball games...

Sometimes the judicial system in this country functions correctly and they do the right thing instead of the thing that all the people want them to do.

Today a judge dismissed all of the charges against the head of the Holyoke Soldiers Home. If you aren't aware, covid killed a lot of old guys in the home and they people needed someone to blame so they blamed him.

Fortunately, a judge looked at the charges, found no intent to commit a crime, no neglect that resulted in a crime and basically decided that, yea, covid killed a shitload of people but we can't hold the head of the old folks home accountable for what covid did.

I like it when the judicial system works like it should. It worked just fine in the Rittenhouse case and it worked just fine in this case.

Sometimes the judicial system in this country works like shit and it does the emotional thing instead of the right thing.

It looks like the guy who used his car to kill five people has a lengthy criminal history and was out on bail after he apparently conducted a test run on November 11th, running a woman over in a gas station parking lot. He was released on $1,000 bond for that little event

I don't care that all the touchy-feely people think requiring bail hurts people and we shouldn't make it hard for those poor criminals to get out of jail and wait for their trial date at home with their loved ones. No sir, I don't care one bit.

If you've got a scumbag who commits violent crimes, including running someone over with a car, it's a pretty good bet they have proven themselves to be a danger to society.

KEEP THEM IN JAIL for cripes sake.

There is one thing that the mayor of Springfield and I agree on - stop releasing scumbags on little or no bail.
