I was just viewing some rerun of NCIS-LA and I saw Miguel Ferrer. He was a major character in this long running drama.

Miguel died recently.

He was a son of one of my favorite actors of all time.

I was taken aback (think of the effrontery, ha!) by this new White House Spokesman?

Of course this guy is another Goldman/Sachs piece of crap. hahahha

Oh and with nice greasy hair (I guess Charley Sheen sets the mode for this class of idiots?)

WATER ON THE MOON

I wrote about water on the moon 8 years ago.

The only reason I bring this up is because there
were 'hits' on this old blog this morning. hahahah

COMBINATIONS AND PERMUTATIONS

By Richard Day on Tue, 07/18/2017 - 11:20am |

Over the week-end, a White Australian Emigrant female was killed by the police.

This nice lady had called 911 because she was concerned about events happening outside of her home.

And this lady went outside to converse with someone in a car a few minutes later.

She evidently was discussing something with the driver of a car.

A squad car showed up.

And one of the cops shot her dead at the scene.

MEANDERINGS

I had the opportunity to see my son three times in 15 days time?   The first visit had to be at the end of June

On the second meeting, on July 2nd? he produced his pixies and we all went to the park.

Do you realize that a five year old and a two year old can feel sorry for you?

We had a great time.

Anyway, I called my son a few days ago to discuss nonsense.

He put me off; he said he would call me back in an hour.

THE REAL AND THE IDEAL

For the first time in five years, I am streaming The West Wing on Netflix.

We need some reprieve from reality sometimes.

Here is one scene from one of my favorite dramas that really caught my eye:

CAN TRUMP REALLY FIRE MUELLER?

Director Robert S. Mueller- III.jpg

I have been confronted by this idea that Trump might fire the independent counsel appointed by the DOJ #2; meaning Mueller?

BILL MAHER APOLOGIZES

By Richard Day on Sat, 06/10/2017 - 10:52am |

I thought that something like this comment should be posted at Creative Corner since it really discusses subjects better described as entertainment.

I just felt that Maher did a good job last night.

A good job apologizing.

I have mentioned many times my love for Plato and his Apology.

COMEY LIVE!

By Richard Day on Thu, 06/08/2017 - 9:46am |

It is early and Dagbloggers generally have more to do than I on a Thursday Morning.

But then I thought what the hell; this may be the Congressional Super Bowl as so many pundits have said  the last week or so.

Let me just start off with a short Seder Video:

I cite this because it shows the Repub Ad against James Comey?
