What parts of the words 'sore loser' does she not understand?
Kinda reminds me in a left-handed way of whenever there's some kind of mass-shooting and the first thing the jerkoff Mayor or Governor does is blame the gun. Ya know what I mean? The racket didn't fail her - she fucked up. I guess high-level tennis competition just isn't her racquet - if you'll pardon the pun.
Anyway, The highs and lows of the U.S. Open were on full display in the moments following Emma Navarro’s first-round win over Lois Boisson. While Navarro was celebrating the victory, Boisson could be seen on the court smashing a racket several times on the ground before tossing it away in anger.
She had already launched her racket at the ground in the immediate aftermath of Navarro’s winning point, which came when Boisson hit the ball into the net.
That, my friends, is a major league hissy-fit. Game, set, match...

The crazies at Burning Man are at it again...
According to this report, if you want a low-key, peaceful ride through Nevada’s Black Rock Desert, Burning Man festival is not the place to get it. And don’t take comfort in the fact the annual gathering’s outrageously styled art-cars must be registered with Burning Man’s own DMV. “It stands for Department of Mutant Vehicles,” David Best, a Burning Man veteran whose most iconic art car resembles a rocket, straight out of the 1950s, drily told The California Post.
Creating the inventive “mutant” rides - typically modified automobile chassis reassembled to look like chrome animals, desert galleons, dragons or spaceships - does not come cheap.
As Kevin Clark, the force behind the fierce looking Rhino Redemption, put it to The Post, “Whatever you think you want to spend on a car, you can at least double it. I’ve probably spent over a couple hundred thousand on the Rhino. Some cars are so extravagant they cost more than a million dollars to build.”
Must be nice to be rich. And a little bit crazy, huh?

When god gives yoou lemons, you know what to do, but how do you make wine from raisins?
Napa Valley wine growers are struggling to survive as their grapes are left to rot on vines due to demand plummeting. Rancher William Hill opened up about the devastating impact it’s had on his business, saying it is one of the worst downturns in his 50 years in the industry.
He told CBS News: “We left about 30 or 40% of these grapes unpicked. You have these grapes that’ll make this great wine, and instead we’re just going to leave them there, you know, and let them dry up. That hurts. Yeah, that hurts.”
Maybe knows the time to start thinking about growing a crop people need instead of something the French and Italians do better anyway, Mr. Hill.
If you're gonna blame anyone, don't go with that climate bullshit, either. It's your Governator who's made your water too expense for you to water your vines, combined with the lefties trying to limit or restrict - and then tax to tears - people's willingness to buy your product. Keep voting Dem, Bubba. It's a self-fullfilling dream after all, isn't it? Juss' sayin'...
"Do as I say, not as I do." The idiot Lib's mantra...
Billie Eilish is being justifiably mocked for officiating her brother’s wedding on what she may refer to as “stolen land.” The singer, 24, hosted 29-year-old Finneas O’Connell’s marriage to longtime girlfriend Claudia Sulewski, 30, at the luxurious San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito, Calif. Saturday.But social media users were quick to point out the service took place on a region that once belonged to Native Americans. Eilish caught heat at the Grammys in February after claiming “no one is illegal on stolen land” during an anti-ICE tirade.
The Chumash historically inhabited a vast swath of California’s Central and Southern coasts, including the San Ysidro Ranch area.
The Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Indians says Chumash territory once covered roughly 7,000 square miles, stretching from Malibu to Paso Robles and inland to the western edge of the San Joaquin Valley.
Historical documentation for the Montecito area also identifies it as Chumash territory before European settlement.

Is this 'flash flood' thing a flash in the pan or something more ominous?
I get a mental image of some guy somewhere who lives near a creak bed gathering lumber and animals for an arc. Immediately following a flood that killed thousands in Nepal, we get one of our own here.
A 'desperate' search was underway Sunday for at least 15 missing hikers who vanished when a flash flood swept through the Grand Canyon.
The National Park Service (NPS) confirmed 46-year-old man was dead and many others missing as they continued scouring the popular retreats of Bright Angel Canyon and Phantom Ranch after the torrent struck at 2:30 p.m. Saturday. Video footage showed a stream of water wiping out what appeared to be a building downstream as the wall of mud was surged through the ravine.
Dramatic rescue video also captured helicopter pilots carrying people to safety as the rainstorm battered the chopper and the extent of the devastation could be seen below. In an update yesterday afternoon, the Grand Canyon National Park Service issued a request for information about 20 missing people, before a spokesman later revised the figure to 15. It said: “The National Park Service is asking the public to provide information for more than 20 individuals who may be missing or unaccounted for following a significant flash-flood event in Bright Angel Canyon and the Phantom Ranch area on August 29.
“The National Park Service is asking anyone who knows of hikers or backpackers who were in the inner canyon along the Bright Angel Creek corridor on August 29, as well as anyone who had a campground reservation in the affected corridor, to provide information to National Park Service Investigative Services.
Meanwhile, here in Florida:
'Medical Marijuana' my ass...
Let's cut the shit, shall we? Of course we're smoking it to get high. I'd have to say that since they made 'medical' weed legal here in Florida, virtually every one of my friends have a note from 'a doctor' who's prescribed weed in very large doses for any and every symptom they can conjure.
Now, I do have to admit that I don't smoke nearly as much as I used to back when I was on the job in Newark, but fuck - most of my drinking buddies'll sit at the bar hitting weed vapes while they watch reruns of some obscure women's golf tournament somewhere.
Of course we're smoking it to get a buzz - are ya really that deluded to think we all have fuckin' glaucoma or something?
One thing I will mention (knowing that the Babs probably won't read this) is that I don't like getting high with - or around - my faithfull sidekick. Damn near everything out of her mouth once she's started in on her first cocktail is a question, and I think you know how much you love being questioned on anything once the buzz kicks in. Know what I'm saying?
And why is there an 'h' in the word what if you're not gonna use it?
Yeah - that kinda question. Juss' sayin'...

The New York Post reports the Somali woman who won Minnesota's Outstanding Refugee Award was accused of a fraud scheme tied to sex trafficking Friday.
The day before, 2 Somali women were shown on security cameras fist fighting each other inside a Target store. Who says immigrants can't assimilate?

Jill Biden on Friday was discussing her husband's condition the night of his 2024 debate with Donald Trump and Jill raised the possibility that Joe had been drugged.
It's the only explanation why Joe was so well-spoken and coherent.
Hunter always wondered what happened to his stash that day.

If I learned anything while I was away...
I learned what the true definition of the word 'quiet' is. At the cottage in Doochary where we stayed for a good part of our trip, it's situated on a country lane just outside of a very sleepy little town named Doochary.
Google it - there aint much there.
Anyway, the cottage is set back a ways from that lane virtually no one travels and a few miles from that sleepy metropolitan crossroads, and if nothing else, it is quiet. Very, VERY quiet there.
What a joy it is when the loudest thing you can hear is the breeze rustling tree branches. Gee, ain't it great to be back...
