Wednesday==>OK, my loyal and faithful readers and followers out there in the morass known as cyberspace ... yes ... your favorite blogger here in The Big Apple, The Greatest City In The World, is well aware that he hasn’t posted today and that the afternoon is grinding down.
I know you are all commenting to your inner selves ... what the fuck is going on? Well ... inner selves ... the issue is ... he doesn’t have a hell’va lot to share with you at the moment. Boring!
What? Yeah ... I know ... that’s also why he is taking up space now with all of this drivel ... so ... Boring!
The bottom line ... yesterday Billi Pod basically gave himself the day off entertainment-wise. Yes, he had multiple options from his various ticket services but none of the available shows turned him on. Boring!
He also wasn’t in the mood for a movie.
Oh, during the day he had and did plenty of things and stuff, including the weekly trip to the grocery store to take advantage of the additional 5% senior discount. He saved a total of 11% and, you know, over a year’s time that adds up to some decent money. Boring!
So ... what did your favorite blogger do? He ... gasp ... opted to stay in the pleasant confines of PHC and watch the 7:00pm YANKEES/TORONTO game, from Toronto, which the Bronx Bombers won 7-1 on the long ball from Alfonso Soriano, who hit 2 HRs and drove in 4 runs. Andy Pettitte had an excellent outing and picked up the win. Not boring!
The final game of the 3-game series is tonight at 7:00pm. On the mound for The Bombers will be our ace Hiroki Kuroda (11-9), who has won just one of his last five starts vs. rookie Todd Redmond (1-2) for the Blue Jays.
The Yankees are still technically in the race for the second wild card spot. Very not boring!!
So ... in the name of fair and unbiased reporting ... as of 3:30pm it looks as if Billi Pod will stay in for the second consecutive night to watch baseball, that is ... unless something really really interesting shows up at the last minute.
Hey ... don’t judge me ... just live with it ... OK?
Moving on ...
I am happy to report that today two major theatre critics followed Billi Pod’s lead in their reviews of the mess known as THE CHEATERS CLUB.
Charles Isherwood, writing for the New York Times, panned it ... saying: “... the would-be cheaters don’t end up getting much action. For all the convoluted trappings stuffed into ‘The Cheaters Club,’ neither does the audience.”
and,
Frank Scheck, writing for The NY Post, trashed it ... saying: “But for all its ‘Haunted Mansion’-style special effects, ‘The Cheaters Club’ is really just an incoherent hodgepodge of stylistic effects. You won’t be titillated, you won’t be scared. You’ll just be bored.”
Yeah ... right on guys ...
In closing ... I want to take this opportunity to attempt to make up for a very serious omission in yesterday’s blog posting ...
I forgot to post anything about John Scott Reed’s birthday ... so ... a day late ...
A major HAPPY BIRTHDAY shout out to John Scott Reed aka Fabson, who celebrated his 27th birthday yesterday.
As many of you loyal and faithful readers and followers know, Scott is originally from Lakeland, FL, and he has been a resident of NYC since he graduated from High School. In a major upward career move, he has just become a member of the Facebook team and is located in their New York office on Madison Avenue.
Scott is truly living life to its fullest here in The Big Apple and I am so happy for him and proud, too!!
Yesterday’s Pedometer mileage==>2.16 miles (or, 4,740 steps)
Total mileage since 7/1/13==>209.83 miles (average 3.62 miles per day)
GO YANKEES!! GO GATORS!!
