Man what a week!!  I was sick as a dog with the flu.  Must have picked up a bug in Vegas.  Still tire easy.  Karen went to the Reign game today without me so I could take a nap.  Gonna try to go to work tomorrow. 

Brad Pitt won an Oscar tonight for Best Supporting Actor in the movie, "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood."  During his acceptance speech he said, "they told me I only have 45 seconds up here, which is 45 seconds more than the Senate gave John Bolton this week." Referring to the Senate refusing to hear witnesses in tRUMP'S impeachment trial. 

"I love getting even when I get screwe d by someone... Always get even.  When you are in business,you need to get even with people who screw you.  You need to screw them back 15 times harder.  You do it no only to get the person who messed with you, but also to show the others who are watching what will happen to them if they mess with you  If someone attacks you, do not hesitate.  Go for the jugular."  Donald R. Trump from his 2009 book  "Think Big." 

He couldn't just fire Vidman and let him walk out of the building with his cardboard box full of personal stuff.  No.  He had him escorted out of the building by the White House Police like a common crook.   What a shame.  tRUMP'S day will come. 

Celebrated my birthday in Las Vegas.  Had a great time.  Saw the Beatles show again and saw the Michael Jackson show.  Both shows were great. 

tRUMP has started to exact his vengeance against those who testified against him in the impeachment trial in the House of Representitives.  First to go was Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman and his twin brother Lt.Col.Yevgeny Vindman, who are both U.S. Army assigned to the White House.  Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman testified against tRUMP and his brother was in the audience.   

Next to go was European Ambassador Gordon Sondland who testified against tRUMP. Interestingly, Sondland was a big tRUMP donor and given the ambassadorship because of it. Sondland was working in Ukraine on tRUMP's behalf to try to extort the Ukrainian President. tRUMP obviously has no loyalty to someone when wronged by him.  

Who will be fired next by this petty man??

On Wednesday the Senate voted to acquit tRUMP of the two articles of impeachment filed against him.  The vote went along party lines with the exception of Senator Mitt Romney who voted for conviction. What a joke. 

tRUMP will always be considered "impeached."

During his State of the Union Address, tRUMP awarded Rush Limbaugh the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

While I was in Las Vegas, tRUMP had his State of the Union Address. I've read that it was full of his usual lies. Afterward Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi was seen tearing up her copy of his speech. 

Republicans are outraged and demand Pelosi be arrested for destroying an official Washington document.

After the speech, tRUMP turned to face Pelosi and refused to shake her hand as is customary after the speech.  It doesn't appear tRUMP was aware of Pelosi tearing up his speech when he refused to shake her hand.  Just a petty old man.

Rode to the beach today.  It was bright and sunny, but I fought a cold head wind the whole way.  Didn't see her along the way. 

Kansas City Chiefs came back in the fourth quarter to beat the 49ers in this years Super Bowl. 

Spring

You know, Spring is just around the bend,

And Winter’s dread is about to end.

Warmer breezes against your cheek,

Offer up a Summer’s peek.

The Super Bowl, then turn the page,

Then suddenly baseball’s all the rage.

Basketball too will soon submit,

But hockey never seems to quit.

Spring, flowers bursting into bloom,

Longer days replace the gloom.

Pack away that coat and hat,

Shorts and T-shirts are where it’s at.

Spring, a time of great renewal,

Taking stock of your inner jewel.

Dare to ponder, plan or scheme,

Dare to live your secret dream.

Tomorrow is Super Bowl Sunday.  I'm rooting for the 49ers.

Yesterday the Senate voted 51-49 to not allow pertinent witnesses or documents into the impeachment trial of tRUMP.  Wednesday the vote will be held to remove tRUMP from office, which will be the final straw in what will go down in history as the biggest sham trial ever.  

Excuse me teacher.  I have a question??
