Weekly Roll - This week is for the birds

Hawk at the Skate Park

 The Big Year - I reviewed this book back in 2011. There is a lot of talk about a resurgence in bird watching. The Big Year is extreme bird watching tale. There is also a comedy movie called The Big Year. The documentary - Listers.  I watched and it is amusing and on YouTube. The bird photography is stunning and following these 2 guys is entertaining.

DEEP THOUGHTS

I hate government shutdowns. My husband is considered a government essential worker, and he is working without pay. I do not like this political tool.  Since my husband has worked for the government for 35 years.  We are quite use to these shutdowns and not in the same position of living paycheck to paycheck. It still hurts though.

I couldn't resist these tiny target ghosts.  I realized they went with this Etsy print I got last year.

Spicy Older Ladies Blazer Fan Club - breaking news

 Well we did not seem this coming.  Chauncy Billups head coach of the Blazers was arrested. Beyond disgusted and disappointed.  The Spicy Older Ladies DO NOT APPROVE of these shenanigans.  I think the Blazers have enough problems without this incident.

Bill Orem said it best, "We all are victims of Chauncy Billups".

Spicy Old Ladies Blazer Fan Club - Preseason Report


I am thinking that me and my mother-in-law are the only Blazers fans in our small New Mexico town. We watched the preseason and here are my thoughts in no particular order.

Matisse needs a podcast maybe with Kris Murray as a co-host. There is much debate exactly what it would be about. TBD

Yang Hansen is the real deal.  He did great despite language barrier and being a rookie. The question is Yang his last name or first name. Yang is on his jersey.

Shaedon Sharpe (Shay) was in the house and delivering the mac and the cheese.

Donovan Clingon (Cling Kong) was looking in a lot more conditioned.  He got schooled by Drew Eubanks (Kings) and Nurkic aka the Bosnian Beast (Jazz) both former Blazers. His second year is looking promising.

The young blazers are confused about Furbies and Gremlins. I tell you what youngsters they are very different. They all agree Furbies are scary looking.

Deni Avjida aka Turbo was looking fabulous. My oldest won't let me use the nickname I want to give him. I will continue to correct other team announcers until they pronounce your last name right. KNOW HIS NAME!


Yes, I will continue to keep a list.  I have changed to a dry erase board.
