It’s the holiday season and you would think there might be a little goodwill and holiday cheer, but then you look around and it’s all BAH – HUMBUG. I don’t want to take away from all of you out there that are trying to celebrate the season but unless we get real and start exercising our rights we won’t have any next year. Yes, our system could use some tweaking but it’s still better than the options we are being given. Remember I don’t claim to have all the answers but I do know when we’re looking at ones that will make things much worse for all us regular folk. The solutions that are being offered will do nothing to improve our lot in life but, will give the power-hungry assholes that don’t care about anything but themselves exactly what they want, and the hell with us. There will always be people unhappy with the way things are but they need to stop looking for easy answers because they’re aren’t any. Like I’ve said I don’t have the answers and right now I don’t know who does. I just went to my latest grandchild’s christening and I stood there hoping that he had a good future and a world that would be there for him to celebrate his own son’s christening. I’m pretty much done with my life so I don’t write this blog or make videos to improve my life I truly want there to be a good life in front of me and all the other grandchildren out there. The year is coming to an end and I wish I could say the future looked bright. Lucy and I will be back next week to bring a more traditional Holiday post. This is FATS and LUCY saying CIAO from Medellin Colombia.

The lack of integrity in sports is not a new thought. Everybody who has lost a bet on sports thinks it was fixed. Well, now they might be right. Way back when I remember all the sports commissioners saying they would never play in Vegas, Basketball, Football, and just about every other major or minor sport is either building or already playing in Vegas. I will stick with football and basketball because I know the most about them. Basketball has had a couple of scandals, especially at the college level. Mostly involving point shaving. Point shaving can affect the game’s winner and the over under bet. This year in Pro football the officiating has been questionable, to say the least. Now, you have internet books sponsoring pro teams using athletes to promote betting online. Willie Mays was banned for a while because he went to work for a Casino after his playing days were through. Mark Cuban is selling his majority stake in the Dallas Mavericks to a Casino family. The Mafia has gone from beating and shooting to straight-up paying the athletes. Pretty soon all pro sports are going to look like wrestling and yes you can bet on pro wrestling. None of this surprises me it just disappoints me. But when you look at how politicians go around breaking the law without consequences we shouldn’t be surprised by the lack of integrity in sports. This is an unfortunate FATS and a confused LUCY saying CIAO from Medellin, Colombia.

I’m getting really tired of politicians getting away with threatening everybody on TV and nothing happens to them. They make threats against the president and you know if we did that we’d have SECRET SERVICE, FBI, CIA, and every other alphabet agency knocking on our door. In my humble opinion, Trump has done enough and said enough to be charged with treason. Now we have Santos going around making threats against the people who voted him out of public office. I believe in the Constitution of the United States but it has to be applied equally. That’s why I never want to be in the same room as Trump and some of these other morons. I don’t think I could resist running up to them and beating the shit out of them, especially Trump. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised when people buy into his bullshit lies because he’s said them so many times he’s starting to believe them himself. Hey, Trump you lost get over it it’s old news. Talk about now and how you’re going to fix things not how you’re going to get even with everybody and turn the US into a Fascist state. How do you plan on day one to destroy Social Security with no replacement in sight or how do you plan to get rid of OBAMACARE without any new plan or send troops into the cities to make sure nobody objects to you. I have a serious question for America. If Trump is found guilty in any of his trials before the election and he is allowed to be on the ballot and he wins can he be sworn in as President, could we end up with a convicted felon as President of the United States. This is FATS and LUCY saying CIAO from Medellin, Colombia.
