A lot going on, life is one of them… as I prep my kitchen for the evening’s dinner. I turn on the tube, and MONEYBALL is on. I totally believe in the concept of putting players on base at a higher rate leads to more runs, which therefore, translates to more wins… theoretically. It makes me think, puts a small tear in my eye, and it makes me laugh.

R.I.P. and THANK YOU Roy Haynes… a Giant of Jazz Drumming, Is Dead at 99
An irrepressible force who remained relevant over the course of a seven-decade career, he had a hand in every major development in modern jazz.

I did not receive one of these texts, but an associate did.
I can’t get upset, because then I’m called hateful, and angry and then the term TDS is tagged to my name… for those of you that don’t understand my angry. SOMEONE thought it would be okay to do this, someone thought it was a good idea to put this out. something gave them the courage or confidence to do something or to behave in a certain way at this time! Yes, I’m angry, and tired of turning the other cheek. I was told in 2015 that I would know my place once Trump got into office… So, how should I feel?
America is Trump!
