Journey To All Our Thoughts

The kind, cruel and most often crazy tides of life have whisked me into another world completely.

Nebula, the galaxy or galactic gases and other particles of space is 74,000 light years past Earth's neighboring Andromeda, which itself is a 126,000 light years farther than our galaxy. When I transform into galactic dust to travel to Nebula, I can swim in a lake between the sun and moon surrounded by incredibly bright stars and marvelous moon beams.

As a cosmic being I can soar to any planet, and all the known universes in the realms of inner and outer space. Because of my ability to travel the speed of light, I can swim circles around hurling meteors toward Earth, thus altering the meteors course to our planet and killing 100 percent of the people.

To date, I've saved the planet 2,111 times. After the 2,112 I save the Earth, the great spirits have promised me they will create another person with my abilities and release me of my choirs from Earth, and allow me to dwell on the island planet I could never spell or pronounce. This island planet has all the combined beauty of Earth's most marvelous water falls, forests, mountains, lakes, streams, rivers, oceans and everything else beautiful on the planet.

The one woman who loves me, as do I her, dwells on the island planet. Years ago I wrote these words about her...

Standing amidst the chaos of pelting rain, crashing
waves and ocean winds, all I could see was 'her' face.
Mesmerized by her smile, fixated by her laugh, drawn to
her every word.
Her heart felt wisdom saturates my mind with love &
laughter.
Indeed she is the true definition of the
word lady.
Lady; Classy, smart, sensuous, soulful,
sweet, and sincere.
Harbored in my dreams and embedded in my soul
dwells she.
Luscious lady who awakes delicious
Desires…

Some of the gods claim I'm crazy because I could be with her right now on the island planet which knows no crime, cruelty or greed. Eternal health and youth mixed with love and laughter govern this incredible world. Why do I spend most of my time on Earth? On the island planet, I have absolutely no way of for seeing an oncoming meteor shower diving toward Earth eager, to destroy the human race.

Mind Adventures

Got no money, got no woman, have a woman, too much compromise and too many augments. Satisfied and happy, too complacent. Sad and suicidal, aspirations and creativity never explored. Seeking life's balance on a tight rope of poverty and success. Dreams creations are a joyous journey on the infinite path of imagination.

The Novel, " A Strange Little Place," A Paranormal Journey...

The author of "A Strange Little Place" is a believer in the paranormal and wrote about ghosts  and other supernatural beings that he claims haunt, taunt and sometimes simply observe some of the living in the small town of Revelstoke, Canada.

Instead of diving into the philosophical waters of the supernatural, Brennan Storr, the author barley gets the top of his feet wet in the infinite depths of the unknown.

I'm giving this book a mere two star rating. The reason the book receives more than  half star is because Storr gave me some cool word combinations I can implement into my own bombastic written thoughts.

Whether or not your a believer or skeptic in the world of ghosts, each and every story (33) Storr wrote about in this book is more boring then the next one. On the bright side, no people were killed by any of the haunting dead, and since a lot of the stories involved children, this was especially a good thing.

Most of the 33 stories, all taking place in the town of Revelstoke were just mere tails of people saying they saw Big Foot, aka Sasquatch, a UFO or one or more ghosts. One person claims he was pushed down a flight of stairs by a ghost, but other then some very minor injuries, so what?
In another one of the stories, a man, his wife and children were driving along a rural highway in Revelstoke, and they all claim to have felt a very ominous presence, so the father, who was driving found a place to make a U-turn on the free way and go another direction. Again, so what? What was the presence they felt? You won't find out in the book either, a lot of the boring stories were the same thing, we saw something so scary, we thought we were going to die, then nothing what so ever happens, and when the people were asked what what the saw or felt, Storr got the same reply;

"I don't want to talk about it."

"A Strange Little Place" was like a joke book with hundreds of jokes and not a single punch line.
I did learn one thing from this book, if you own a car that is frequently breaking down and even with numerous repairs for the same engine problem keep occurring, it may be Gremlins messing with you. To get rid of Gremlin's in your house, leave a fresh glass or bowl of milk outside your door for three days, even if you live where there are many pets and other animals about, they will leave it for the Gremlin's. The milk will still be at your door step at the end of the three days, but the Gremlins will be gone, and your car will run again, according to Storr.

If you believe in big foot, or a colony of  Sasquatches, they sometimes appear along side of a two lane highway or in the woods of Revelstoke Canada.

Bleacher Babble, Sports Blog

At long last, this Oakland professional sports fan is in the midst of growing up and not getting too caught up in the fantasy world of pro sports.

When the Golden State Warriors lost in the NBA finals earlier this year in seven games to the Cleveland Cavaliers, I was devastated. For days, even weeks, I convinced myself that the NBA Finals were fixed and Lebron James was the reason for the fix. Upon listening to others talk about the Finals and re watching the highlights, it became clear to me that the series was not fixed.

The Cavilers, despite being down 3-1 and facing back to back championship loses to the Warriors, James and company got into the Warriors heads and won the final three games to seize the NBA championship. Draymond Green foolishly got himself suspended for game five, a massively needed defensive presence the Warriors, and then Stephen Curry stupidly got himself suspended for Game six. Back to back games in which the Warriors did not have their dynamic dual in the biggest series of their illustrious record breaking season.

This years NBA Finals made me much more of a sports fan, as opposed to just liking or watching only three teams, in my case the teams being the Oakland Raiders, Warriors and the Oakland Athletics. The colossal collapse of the Warriors in the NBA Finals showed me the light, expect nothing and just enjoy the competitiveness of each game.

My favorite baseball team, the Athletics are the worst team in professional sports, many experts claim it's the 1-10 San Francisco 49ers, but I say it's the A's. Billy Beane once the greatest General Manager in all of professional sports is complete joke now.

The Athletics most recent path to patheticism was getting rid of their two best offensive players, if not the teams best players in the last two years, Josh Donaldson and Yoenis Cespedes.

In 2015 Josh Donaldson was the American League MVP, and this year batted over .400 in the playoffs with a HR and amassed five RBIs. Last baseball season Donaldson batted .297 with 41 home runs and a 123 RBIs. In return, Brett Lawrie, who the A's got for Donaldson batted .260 last season with 16 HR and 60 RBIs. The A's also got right handed pitcher Kendall Graveman, lefty Sean Nolin and minor league shortstop Franklin Barreto for Donaldson

Right handed pitcher Graveman has given the A's two complete games in a little over 300 innings of work and an ERA of over .405. http://m.mlb.com/player/608665/kendall-graveman, Mean while lefty Nolin is no longer with the A's and when he was, he gave them a whopping 29 innings of work with a losing record and an ERA of .528. Short stop Barreto has yet to pitch in the majors, http://www.milb.com/player/index.jsp?player_id=620439#/career/R/hitting/2016/ALL so the Blue Jays are currently laughing at and thanking the A's immensely is my guess.

For Yoenis Cespedes, the A's got star pitcher Jon Lester from the Boston Red Sox,but because he remained awesome, the A's got rid of Lester after only ten games. In the ten games he played for the A's, Lester had a lofty .235 ERA and a winning record.

This year Lester pitched for the World Series champion Chicago Cubs. His ERA for the Cubs was .244 and he was 14 games over .500. http://m.mlb.com/player/452657/jon-lester  Lester was 2-1 for the Cubs in the World Series, including the game seven winner with 2.02 ERA, great job dumping this pitcher Oakland! http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/gl.cgi?id=lestejo01&t=p&post=1

In essence the A's got nothing for star player Cespedes, Jonny Gomes is no longer with the A's. When Gomes played for the A's in 2014, via the Cespedes trade, he played in 34 games with 0 HR, five RBIs, and batted .234. http://m.mlb.com/player/430404/jonny-gomes

Mean while Cespedes has 48 HR for the Mets since last season and batted .280 for the Mets this year with 31 dingers. The A's are clearly on a path to patheticism and at least with their current management, I know the team will continue to disappoint, no nail biting playoff games for the A's in the near future, that's for certain.

For us football and basketball Oak town fans, the future looks very bright. The Golden State Warriors won the NBA Finals in 2015 and currently have the best record in the league. Next door to them is the Raiders who are 5-0 on the road, and currently leading their division with a 9-2 record.

I still expect nothing in the playoffs, if either the Warriors or Raiders win a championship this year, fantastic, but if not, so what, life goes on, but I really hope neither team gets blown out in the post season, that's all I demand from my emotions when it comes to sports.

I should take my own advice and follow more local youth sports. ysn365.com is the web place to go if your a Nor Cal person for local high school and college sports.
