Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

Never seem to see this mentioned but Dwight Eisenhower was as much an outsider to the Republican Party before running for President as Donald Trump was. Ike also had no experience in elected office either... Soon - Soon... Once a week in NHL states that are still in lockdown and once the season starts - the local NHL team should host a game at an outside venue where some fans can attend. The Bruins, for example, could host a game at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro... Jim Harbaugh eyes NFL return. What teams would be interested? The Lions, Jets, and Bears? This smells like something planted by Harbaugh's agent to build up interest in his client... Think it would be a mistake for the Bears to go with a college coach but there may be one exception. Think Josh McDaniels would be the best choice for Chicago... 

Flotsam and Jetsam

Miscellaneous thoughts and observations.

The biggest unanswered question from John Podesta's email hack is whether or not he ever got that knock-off Viagra he was looking for... Cool - NASA announces two new asteroid missions... "The best time for a man to do Kegel exercises is while he urinates." - John Kerry...  Heh heh... Death Waltz would be a great name for a heavy metal Lawrence Welk cover band... This is quite a hiking accomplishment... Speaking of unanswered questions - is Brian Urlacher still rocking the suddenly found hair he had going on last January?... Tommy Heinsohn is the best... Speaking of band names - Vengeance Quakers would be a good name for a band... I still say that salad bars should be renamed "vegetable buffets"...  Cool... People forget that 2016 started with the death of the immortal Abe Vigoda. It is possible that so many celebrities died last year as revenge from the Angel of Death who was finally able to defeat the Great Vigoda...
