The anticipated improve price issue hit me proper within the face yesterday. An instance of how issues are going to work. I describe it as “a penny right here, a greenback there.”
I used to be at Publix to choose up a number of issues. Yogurt one of many objects. The identical yogurt I’ve been buying for a while. Publix model. The sort the place the fruit is within the backside and needs to be blended. Price has been $.56. Yesterday, $.57. Solely a penny. However, a rise. I went to the bakery division to choose up a container of sliced loaf cake. A as soon as every week buy for me. I purchase the sliced. Price has been $5.99. Yesterday, $6.99. Up one greenback.
A penny right here, a greenback there. That’s the method it’s going to occur. The way in which it’s going to be.
Sucks!
Numbers depend. Higher if correct. Trump retains speaking in regards to the variety of nations that need to speak. If I recall appropriately, the latest quantity 70. For actual? The administration’s numbers re quite a few issues aren’t at all times right. We’re informed these nations need to speak. Inform us about outcomes, not the alleged quantity and a 90 day delay. Give us one thing to depend on.
I discussed yesterday Garcia may be useless. Such was why no info was forthcoming to the Court docket. Later yesterday, the Court docket was suggested he was in jail in El Salvador. Thanks. One thing all of us suspected.
He should still be useless and the knowledge false. Give us one thing firmer.
Nayib Bukele is El Salvador’s Presidnet. He can be in Washington tomorrow for talks with Trump. Maybe my cynical lawyer coaching is at work. May or not it’s that Bukele will deliver Garcia with him or announce with Trump that he can be launched this week? Then Trump can take, per his traditional customized, credit score for Garcia’s return. He succeeded the place the Courts failed!
Wouldn’t shock me. A typical Trump ploy.
No matter, let’s get Garcia house!
I loved a pleasing afternoon yesterday watching the Masters. As we speak can be much more thrilling. McIlroy and DeChambeau will go at it for the Championship, although others have a shot at profitable additionally. McIlroy leads the event by two strokes.
Considered one of my pleasures in life was touring to observe main golf tournaments. I’ve seen many.
One specifically got here to thoughts Thursday when the Masters started. Custom performs an enormous position within the Masters. Sure former Masters winners tee off to start the event. Outdated timers who not play. A kind of Thursday was Jack Nicklaus. I’ve not seen him personally or on TV in years. As I’ve, he bought previous. Walked a bit wobbly, his physique a bit on the heavier aspect, his face wrinkled. His humor nonetheless there, nonetheless.
The greats merely hit a drive to start the event.
Nicklaus quipped as he went to tee as much as the impact he hoped he may get the ball on the tee, and many others.
He did and drove the ball properly.
Delivered to thoughts a event I noticed a few years in the past during which Nicklaus performed. I overlook which event and which gap. Nonetheless, I used to be there on a specific gap standing off to the aspect when Nicklaus hit once more. The ball landed about 10 toes on the green from me. Nicklaus subsequent shot was a toughie. The opening was about 70 yards away. Nonetheless between Nicklaus and the opening was a tree. Not the tallest nor the shortest. Excessive sufficient nonetheless to make it inconceivable to hit the ball over and onto the inexperienced.
The gap between the ball and the tree was about 10 yards. An inconceivable shot.
Nicklaus stood behind the ball like without end and appeared in deep thought. He then walked as much as the tree and seemed immediately up for a number of seconds. Once more, in deep thought. Returned to his ball and stood behind it once more merely starring.
Nicklaus was meditating. He was considering his shot.
He hit the ball up and over the tree and it landed one foot from the pin. The person had thought the shot by. He mentally made a hell of a shot. An inconceivable one.
A thrill to have watched!
By no means made Mamma Mia on the Key West Excessive College final night time. Went to purchase a ticket upfront at midday. Door locked. Nobody promoting tickets on the time. The present scheduled to start at 7. That meant the door to seats would open at 6. Ticket gross sales starting at 5 or 5:30. The very last thing I needed was to have to face to purchase a ticket after which stand to get a seat. I’m again to the cane.
So I spent a pleasing night at house. Loved two motion pictures.
The primary was The Man within the Grey Flannel Go well with. A 1956 winner starring Gregory Peck and Jennifer Jones. Wonderful! It had been years since I noticed the film. I recall having learn the e-book earlier than the film. The e-book by Sloan Wilson had been printed a 12 months earlier than in 1955 and was an prompt hit. I couldn’t wait to see the film when it got here out.
It was early so I made a decision there was nonetheless time to do a Mamma Mia night time. I watched Mamma Mia starring Meryl Streep. I most likely have seen the transfer a dozen instances. Like it! Nice story base surrounded by excellent music.
Get pleasure from your Sunday!
