Ending the Month of June with Linda & Jerry...

Believe me when I say...

keeping the beat on the Kettle Drum is not easy! They gave me a chance to participate.

Things went well for about a minute when they shut me down & Michael took over...

I blew my shot...my arm got tired, I got confused & I lost my rhythm...

Frustration...65 years I have been watching Philly Teams. Timmy says Philly is a place where coaches & players go to die...

Per Wikipedia... Philadelphia has a long history of professional sports teams. Philadelphia is one of six cities that has won at least one championship in the NHL, NFL, MLB, and NBA. Philadelphia's combined total of 16 championships in these leagues ranks sixth among North American cities.

Club	League	Division	Venue	Location	Founded	Titles	Head Coach / Manager	General Manager
Philadelphia Phillies	MLB	NL East	Citizens Bank Park	Philadelphia	1883	2	Joe Girardi	Sam Fuld
Philadelphia Eagles	NFL	NFC East	Lincoln Financial Field	Philadelphia	1933	4	Nick Sirianni	Howie Roseman
Philadelphia 76ers	NBA	Atlantic	Wells Fargo Center	Philadelphia	1946	2	Doc Rivers	Elton Brand
Philadelphia Flyers	NHL	Metropolitan East[a]	Wells Fargo Center	Philadelphia	1967	2	Alain Vigneault	Chuck Fletcher
Philadelphia Union	MLS	Eastern	Subaru Park	Chester	2010	0	Jim Curtin	Ernst Tanner

I don't know where Wikipedia gets their 16 championships from. I watched/listened to the Eagles 2, the Phillies 2, the 76er's 2, the Flyers 2? But I don't remember the other 8! Must have been before my birth!

I'm thinking LOBO is the Ben Simmons of dog shows...

• Distracted for some reason
• Looking for a Kardashian in the audience
• Never gave the whole routine a shot
• Looked bored with the whole ordeal

LOBO appears to have Talent...just doesn't give a shit!

I always look forward to Friday & their latest adventure!

There are people that do really nice things... | The Dodo

A little Grandfatherly bragging...

 The last time Justin visited Blossom Hill was around Thanksgiving of 2019...

At the time he told me he was playing Lacross as a Freshman. He never played the game before.

I asked him if he was any good at the game...he told me he stinks at it! Said I can't catch & I

can't toss! I just told him to work on it. I told him, you are a jock, you'll figure it out.

As a Sophomore Justin got this award!

He also suffered a broken shoulder playing the game.

A crazy place in North Miami called Haulover Harbor Inlet!

I also have no clue what a slide rule is for...

Some Sunday night ez listening...

The story behind Michael & the Hitchhikers started when they were in High School and they could not get a Gig!

We have Joe Pas, Carl W, Ray Duff who formed a Kingston Trio type group in the '60's

Michael wanted to join, but he didn't have an instrument...I think he had a fake cow bell

from our mothers kitchen...

Anyway, this is an interview that Eddie conducted in Michael & Mary's back yard.

There is a good tune at the end!

Need a cover photo I am told...my Goal is to be able to ride Ernest before the Summer is over.

 

Remember those old roadway work signs?

" Temporary inconvenience. Permanent improvement."

One week after left knee replacement.

Temporary inconvenience, then permanent improvement?

 Hoping...

Sailing South to the Keys with Mom, Dad & the Nugget...

The neighborhood HOA finally kicked sv Delos out of the neighborhood...

Ran into a 70 year old stranger this week & she asked me...

"Weren't you one of the Puckett Brothers?"

So I'm posting this old video because, "every word is true!"

It is 2021 & Bo Jackson still gets many hits...

Love it!

 A basketball Box Score...

fyi...Ben Simmons made 5 of 8 foul shots tonight.

Remember when the local papers always posted "Box Scores"? Phillies kicked butt tonight & I did not watch...
