Pete Rose Signed My Ball (if you know what I mean…)

I grew up watching Pete Rose play baseball.  He was Charlie Hustle — a nickname he  earned.

When the umpire called “Ball four,” Pete didn’t casually stroll down to first base. He  ran full-out. Because you never know when  you might get a little advantage on the  other guys.

Classical Gas

I have wanted to learn this song since my college days. Never managed to  get it. Until a few years ago, when I bought a cheap used classical guitar. I liked the guitar (a Yamaha), so I figured since I now have a classical guitar, why don’t I give one more try to learning “Classical Gas”?

If It Quacks Like Obstruction….

Let’s talk about obstruction of justice. There are apparently a lot of people who do not believe that President Donald Trump has been involved in obstruction of justice regarding the FBI investigations of his campaign and associates.
