I have already said that I will be boycotting the World Cup from my TV. This will be the second consecutive World Cup that I will be boycotting. I am also boycotting the 2028 Summer Olympics.

TV and Computer off, classical music on and time to read Other Plans. Bunny, Smithy, Diller and Carlos escape the love where they were being held and run off into the Oregon Wilderness with the Sportsmen looking for them. #Booksky

Watched another Best Picture nom today. This was very good. The story is full of twists and turns and then there is the ultimate twist at the end. Both Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons give tour de force performances. Two thumbs up. WAY UP!!! #Filmsky

Once again, rocket scientist Meghan McCain awes everyone with her logic. She obviously missed the point if she thought Mister Rogers was just about "entertainment".

RIP Uncle Floyd. I remember when I was kid and I had The Uncle Floyd Show on (I was 7 or 8 at the time), Floyd was doing something silly and my mom was like "Oh, that is disgusting, Patrick, get it off".

One thing I noticed about the #Oscar noms today...Jay Kelly was completely shutout. Whereas it it got noms at Critics Choice and Golden Globes and Clooney won at AARP Movies for Grownups, nada for the Oscars. There are still the BAFTAs and The Actor awards.

So far, no surprises in the noms. I can't wait to see the 10 for best picture. I have most likely watched two of them...One Battle After Another and Frankenstein #Oscars

TV and Computer off, classical music on and back to Other Plans. Sister Joy is in Sacramento and just gave a slumlord a really bad experience. He promises that he will get even. A few hours later it is found that one of his properties has burned down. #Booksky

Okay, I take nothing away from this guy. However, when you have tattoos on your face...like Jelly Roll...and you sing a song...like Jelly Roll...That is not originality. Find your own voice. Don't be like someone else. By the way, Jelly Roll, this is #StarSearch, not church. Save it for Sunday.

Watching the episode of Breaking the Deadlock from PBS last night I missed on since I was watching Star Search. I should have watched this instead. I love this show and glad a new episode was made.
