T.G.I.T.: HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY

That's right. Thank God it's Thursday. I have to confess that I took Friday off. I really needed a long 4 day weekend. Hope you did the same. I wish all of my readers a fantastic weekend. Ok, with that being said there are a few things to do in the City of Two Rivers. Tonight is a celebration at Cesar Chavez Park honoring the Sacramento Kings. Then we have the Sacramento County Fair at Cal Expo. Also we have the Music Festival in Old Sacramento this weekend. Formerly known as the Jazz Festival. So whatever you do this weekend, relax, enjoy & have a great time! Peace!

QUESTION: WHERE'S JOE BIDEN?

For anyone who follows politics, the big question is where is Vice President Joe Biden? During the last couple of weeks the Obama Administration has been faced with some scandals. First, there is the Benghazi situation. Yes, it's true this happened awhile ago. The attack on Benghazi was spun to the public as a reaction to a Youtube Video. Well, that's not true. The Benghazi situation was in fact a terriost attack. So now the truth is in front of us & the White House is on Damage control. Then, we have the IRS Scandal. Rumor has it that the IRS was targeting conservative groups. Yesterday, the head of the IRS made a statement & then pleaded the fifth. Hello? It does not work that way. She is going to have to appear again. Rumor has it that she has been placed on leave. Also there is the AP scandal, involving phone records of reporters. The Big question is, can Barak Obama survive this? Stay tuned! Same Bat time, same Bat channel.

POWERBALL: THE FEVER HAS BEEN BROKEN

Like everyone in the United States I woke up this morning to check my Powerball Tickets. If you look at my previous article, you will see that I had a feeling about this draw. I was right. You know what? I won. Three dollars! I had the Mega Number & nothing else! The good news is that a winning ticket was sold just outside the city of Tampa, Florida for $590.5 million Dollars. Like many folks, we all thought the Jackpot was $600 Million Dollars. Well, when the Smoke cleared, it looks like the final Jackpot was $590.5 Million Dollars. What are ya gonna do? Where is the extra 10Million Dollars? The good news is that in the State of California two people hit 5 numbers & will get $2.3 Million Dollars each. A nice Pop. I must confess that hitting 5 numbers was my goal in this game. Unfortunately, the Fever has been broken. All we can do is sit back & wait for the next big jackpot. For the most part, gambling is an uncontrollable action. I think that's what draws people in. In closing, never give up on your dreams! Have a peaceful Sunday!

POWERBALL: 600 MILLION DOLLARS UP FOR GRABS

I just got back from the store. I have 12 Powerball Tickets for tonight's 600 Million Dollar Jackpot. In the past, Lady Luck has been good to me. Once again I have the feeling that Lady Luck will shine on me. What about you? If you don't feel it, then don't play. If I win, I will buy a nice place in Laguna Beach, California. Maybe open an Art Gallery. I will finally be able to relax & enjoy life. Yes, I will have a long relationship with the IRS, but I will learn to live with it. The best part of this is the dreams people have if they win. We all need hope. Good Luck!

EVENT: THE SACRAMENTO COUNTY FAIR

This is an invite to all who read this article. On May 23 - 27, 2013 Cal Expo will host the Sacramento County Fair. This is a Family Friendly Event. Basically, it's a smaller version of the State Fair. Don't quote me but admission is $5.00 with $10.00 for parking. For more information Google: Sacramento County Fair. See you there.....

T.G.I.F. : ANOTHER WEEK IN THE BOOKS

As you might have noticed I have been offline for a few days. It's been a heck of a week here in the City of Two Rivers. Let's say that the past few days have been a moment in history. As promised, Mayor Kevin Johnson put together a deal that will keep the Sacramento Kings in Sacramento. In the past I have been critical of the Mayor about this deal. But you know what? The Mayor delivered. With that being said, The Maloof's signed over the pink slip to the Sacramento Kings Team. It now belongs to the group of Investors that Kevin Johnson put together. With this major deal out of the way I only hope that the Mayor will focus on other concerns of the City. Have a great weekend!

ARREST IN THE LEILA FOWLER CASE:

Back on May 3, 2013 I wrote a small article about the Murder of Leila Fowler, age 8. This terrible crime took place in the city of Valley Springs, Ca. If you go back & read my article, you will see that I mentioned that this was a personal crime & whomever did this knew her. Unfortunately, I was right. Over the weekend Leila Fowler's 12 year old brother was arrested for Homicide. Despite it being Mother's day it's a sad day. Why did this have to happen? A young life lost for what? What is our society coming too? My only question is why did this have to happen? I have my opinions, but that really doesn't matter. The truth will come out in court.

Saturday, May 11, 2013

MOTHER'S DAY IS UPON US:

The big question is what are you going to do for Mom tommorrow? Maybe take her out to eat, order in or cook for her. Most of all on her day she shouldn't have to cook. Thinking back, my Mom taught me how to read, tie my shoes & hold a fork. Tommorrow is her day. Hope you feel the same. Have a peaceful Mother's day. Remember that you only have one Mom.

LOTTO FEVER: MEGA MILLIONS / POWERBALL

Jackpot Alert! I have a question for my readers. Did you buy your Lottto Tickets Today? Let me break it down for you. Today, Friday May 10 2013 the Mega Millios Jackpot is $154 Million Dollars. Then, on Saturday May 11, 2013 the Powerball Jackpot is $270 Million Dollars. Hey man, I'm in. I did some research, & quite frankly, I'm not really sure on the Tax Situation. California lottery drawings are exempt from State Taxes. But thru my research, I have no opinion on Multi State Lottery Jackpots. With that being said it's safe to say that the Government will take 1/2 of your winnings. So if you win Mega Millions you are looking at a payday of $77 Millions Dollars. If you hit Powerball, you are looking at $135 Million Dollars. Not bad huh? If I win, I will relocate to Laguna Beach, Calif. What would you do? I want a nice place to live, maybe have an Art Gallery & some Property Investments, like Houses, Condos, Apt Complexes, Commercial Buildings etc. Of course my Family will be invited to relocate. Most of all they will be taken care of. In closing, I know that the odds are out of this world. But, it's time to go for it. Best of luck to you.

T.G.I.F. : SACRAMENTO WEEKEND EVENTS

The Art Festival is located at 1409 Del Paso Blvd. This is an International Event. Best of all it's Free! Hey man, lock your car & have a great time.

LUNCH DATE REVIEW: FOX & GOOSE 1001 R STREET

Earlier in the week I had the pleasure of hearing from an old friend. She wanted to meet me for lunch. Quite frankly it was nice to hear from her. After tossing around a few places to meet for lunch we both agreed on the Fox & Goose. The Fox & Goose otherwise know as the Fox & Goose Public House is located at 1001 R Street. For many years this was home to the Fuller Paint & Glass Company. The building was constructed in 1913. It's a part of Sacramento History. When I arrived she was already there at the front door with a big smile on her face. As we walked in I took the place in. As a matter of fact I have ate here a few times, but this time I really looked the place over. As you walked in, there was a nice bar & plenty of history to look at. Brick constuction with hardwood floors. Our server greeted us & found a place for us to sit. One thing I noticed is that there were plenty of windows, but you couldn't see out of them. They were "frosted" over. The server handed us some menu's but we already knew what we wanted. When our server returned we both ordered the Fish & Chips. Hey man, when you are in a British Pub what else are you supposed to order? Fox & Goose has a vast menu selection, but they are known for their Fish & Chips. About 15 minutes later our order arrived. Awesome! It was a great lunch. However, since my last visit I noticed a few changes. First, there was no Coleslaw. Also, the Tarter Sauce basically was mayonaise. Hello? Also, the "Chips" were just sliced potatoes instead of French fries. But hey, no complaints from me. It was a great lunch with good company. I give Fox & Goose 3 out of 4 Stars!

REALITY REVIEW: THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF ORANGE COUNTY

Many of my longtime readers know that I watch way too much TV. My response is, what are you gonna do? With the Season of Southland coming to an end, along with the series Justified, I find myself watching Reality TV. One trainwreck that I just can't keep my eyes off of is the Real Housewives of Orange County. Talk about Drama! We have Tamara, Alexis, Heather, Vicki, Gretchen & newbie Lydia. Must be nice to be rich & put your life on TV. As for me if I had that kind of money I would be living in Laguna Beach California very quietly. Maybe have an art gallery & chill out on the beach. I would not be putting my life on TV for people to judge & pick apart. But you have to admit, the Real Housewives is pretty good TV. Hey man, what's with the new girl Lydia? She needs to gain 15 lbs & go see a dentist. What's with her teeth? Why is Vicki giving the time of day to "Grifter" Brooks? Why does Super Hot Gretchen love Slade? Does Tamara realize that Eddie is Gay? Hello? My prediction is that this season Heather & her husband Terry will break up. What do you think? Reality TV tears relationships apart. Stay tuned.

T.G.I.F.: ANOTHER WEEK IN THE BOOKS

As usual, it's been another long week. Hey man, it's hot! Remember that Mother's day is on the Horizon, so you better figure out what you are going to do for Mom. As for me, I have started my Summer Garden. After a failed Winter Garden, I have purchased a couple of fresh bags of Miracle Grow potting soil & I have my crops in. Miracle Grow is the "Hoover Duece" of potting soil! I have 7 Cherry Tomato Plants, I have 12 Cucumbers started from seeds, Snow Peas & a few Pumpkin Plants. Wish me luck! Ok, have a great weekend. Stay out of trouble & good luck with Powerball. Peace!

EDITORIAL: REST IN PEACE LEILA FOWLER

This story has really had an impact on me. Leila Fowler, age 8 has had her life taken. The small town of Valley Springs, CA is mourning her. This was a brutal senseless crime. A crime like this is personal. For anyone who has studied crime, this was done by someone who knew her. Even law enforcement has the same opinion. I only hope that someone comes forward with a large reward for information. Money makes people talk. How about it Leonard Padilla? How about it Kings Investors? If someone would put up $50,000.00 this crime would be solved. In the meantime my prayers go out to the family & friends of Leila Fowler.

REVIEW: TRADER JOE'S FEARLESS FLYER

After work today I headed to my mailbox only to discover the Trader Joe's Fealess Flyer Advertisement inside. For many years, I lived within walking distance of Trader Joe's. It was a fantastic place to go & pick up items for a great dinner for two. If you have never been to Trader Joe's you really owe it to yourself to check it out! Looking over today's flyer a few things caught my attention. First, on the front page they have Sicilian Extra Virgin Olive oil for $5.99. Now this is a great deal. In all honesty, how can you cook without Olive Oil? Also, they are offering an Asian Vegtable Mix with Soy Sauce for only $2.69. Thumbing through the flyer it looks like they are offering a lot of organic food choices. They have all kinds of stuff. From Greek Yorgurt to Fully cooked BBQ Baby Back Ribs. I remember when I would shop there it was all about the New York Cheese Cake & those slabs of chocolate at the checkout stand. Hey man, check this place out! I give Trader Joe's 4 out of 4 Stars.

EDITORIAL: ATTEMPTED BREAK IN AT GOVERNOR BROWN'S HOME

A few days ago Jamal Maurice Johnson decided to pull a burglary in Downtown Sacramento. Unfortunately, a neighbor noticed what was going on & called the police. Jamal ended up getting caught. My question is, did he realize that he was trying to break into the Governor's home? Also, where was Brown's Security detail? Yes, the Governor was not home at the time, but you would figure there would be "eyes" on his home at all times. Hey man, it's the Governor of California we are talking about here. Local media outlets only gave a small acknowledgement of the crime. Even the Governor himself made light of it. Am I the only one that thinks this was a very serious situation? If the Governor & his wife were at the time it could have really went bad. What if the neighbor decided to look the other way? What I find interesting is that Jamal Johnson is not in Jail. Perhaps he bonded out. Also as I searched the Sacramento Court Index I can't find any information about the crime. I'm wondering if this really happened at all. In closing, why on earth is the Governor of California living in a flat above P.F. Changs restaurant on the corner of 16th & J Street? Why not live at the Leland Stanford Mansion in the heart of Downtown? Or you could live off of American River Drive with the rich people. Or, better yet a nice Mansion in Granite Bay. It makes no sense to me. What I find funny is that Mayor Kevin Johnson hasn't said shit about this!

REVIEW: PIZZA GUYS THE TWO FOR TWENTY SPECIAL

Yesterday I had a full day. I did my chores, paid my bills etc. Around 4:00PM I was so hungry, but way too tired to cook. I made the call to Pizza Guys at 916 - 483-4444. This place is such a lifesaver. I ordered the two for twenty dollar special. I got two large pizzas with two toppings each for $20.00. My first pizza was your basic Pepperoroni & my second pizza was Sausage & Mushroom. This place knows how to bake a fantastic pizza! In about a half an hour there was a knock at my door. OMG it was so good! Well worth the money. Plus, I have plenty of leftovers for today. Once again, I give Pizza Guys 4 out of 4 stars. You have to check this place out.

T.G.I.F.: ANOTHER WEEK IN THE BOOKS

Let me give a shout out to all of my readers, all over the World. It's been a heck of a week. We have delt with the Boston Marathon Bombers, The Sacramento Kings Deal & the Assorted Crime in the City of Two Rivers. When will it all end? When can we live in Peace with each other? It's getting old. Quite Frankly, it's time for the Leaders of the City to step up & take control. Wouldn't you agree? As for me, the past week has been a handfull. I did have the pleasure of eating at the Squeeze Inn Food Truck. Take a minute & look at the review posted below! Have a great weekend

RESTAURANT REVIEW: THE SQUEEZE INN FOOD TRUCK

Earlier in the week I was in Downtown Sacramento taking care of business. Let's say that the planets were lined up & I found myself in the right place at the right time. As I was walking back to my car around 12:30PM there it was. The Squeeze Inn Food Truck was parked & opened for business. For over a year or more, The Squeeze Inn Restaurant has been on my "to do" list. So in the warm Sacramento Sun I found myself in front of their food truck. Best of all, I was hungry! Looking over the menu board on the side of the truck it looked like $8.00 for a Burger & $4.00 for Fries. Drinks, now get this, were $2.00 each. Making my way to the order window I was thankful that I had some cash. The young lady inside the truck looked at me & said, may I take your order? I responded with, I would like a Squeeze Burger & Fries. She proceeded to ask me if I wanted cheese, Grilled Onions, Mushrooms or Jalepenos. What I didn't realize is that was the upsell. I asked for Cheese & Mushrooms. With my order in she said, ok, your total is $13.00. I handed her a $50.00 bill. She looked over that bill for a long time. She held it up against the sun. She felt the paper. She looked for the watermark. Then she took her pen & swiped it to see if it was real. After the three point check she then took a moment to figure out the change. I got a kick out of this. I looked at her & told her that it's real. After doing several calculations she gave me $37.00 in change. With the money out of the way, she asked me my name. I gave her my name & stood back to wait for my order. While my lunch was cooking, I kept thinking about what I had just done. Hey man, I just spent $13.00 for lunch! After 10 minutes my order was ready & they called my name. Let me say that even though the amount of fries was "Light" the Burger was off the hook! I spent $13.00 for a Burger & Fries. Yes it was costly, but this was one of the best Burgers I have ever ate. There was a two inch perimeter of cheese around the burger. That in it's self was a meal. The Burger came with tomato, onion, pickle & lettuce. The Burger itself seemed to be made of Ground Chuck. Ground Chuck is the "Hoover Duece" of Good Hamburgers. It was a tastey, filling & awesome lunch. Well worth $13.00. In closing, I give The Squeeze Inn food Truck 4 out of 4 Stars!

SOUTHLAND: FINAL EPISODE ON TNT

Any Southland fans out there? Tonight marks the final episode of the season. It was well worth the wait to see this show again. Southland is one of my favorites shows.

TRAGEDY IN BOSTON

Today in Boston it was going to be a great day. It was the running of the Boston Marathon. I was at work & noticed around lunchtime the first report of a bomb blast. Now it's 6:45 on the West Coast & the details are still rolling in. Three innocent people are dead & 140 are hurt. From surfing the internet I have noticed that one person is in Custody. For more details please go to cnn.com

R.I.P.: CD BISTRO & DELI 2440 FULTON AVENUE

It really hurts me to write this, but for the past few weeks I have been keeping an eye on CD's Bistro & Deli located at 2440 Fulton Avenue. Over the past few weeks I have noticed that this establishment has been dormant. No activity & nothing going on. This morning I pulled into the parking lot of CD's Bistro & Deli only to find all of the booths set outside the business into the Parking lot. The place has been gutted. R.I.P. CD's Bistro's & Deli. It was a sad site to see. I remember going into this place back in June of 2010, having a killer dinner & writing a review on my Blog. Now it's all over. So many questions run through my mind. Why is it a Culinary Trained Chef & his Business Partner have Failed? Good location & Fantastic food. It was a Win Win situation. There was no reason why this business closed it's doors. Yet, it's over. Was it the rent? Was it the Overhead? Was it the lack of traffic into the Business? Who knows. Perhaps it's the paycheck to paycheck economy that we are living in. In the City of Two Rivers, people are just getting by. There is no extra money to go out to eat every week. There is no extra money to buy a second car or go out onto the town. Let alone check out a Kings Game. Hopefully, Chef David can get another restaurant going soon. This guy was an excellent Chef. I wish him & his business partner the best! Never give up!

T.G.I.F.: ANOTHER WEEK IN THE BOOKS!

Thank God it's over. Looks like South Sacramento has a new name. The Killing Fields. Also, The Maloof's want a good offer from the Mayor today or they will not do business anymore. So be it. On a lighter note check the left sidebar of the blog. I have uploaded three full length movies for you to enjoy! Have a great safe weekend! Peace.....

THE DEVIL'S RIDE: REAL OR FAKE?

Back on March 4, 2013 I wrote a snippet about the Devil's Ride. I believe the Title was "Snubz Voted Out" It was an article about V.P. Snubz getting voted out of the Club. Since then there have been over 700 hits to this article. So what is it with the Devils Ride? I remember about a year before this show was on I was watching as show called Gangland. The topic was Motorcycle Gangs. Basically the show was about the Hells Angels & The Mongols. At the very end of the show they talked about the Laffing Devils. If I am correct, they mentioned that the Laffing Devils were being looked at by Law Enforcement. Now we have this new reality show in it's second season called the Devil's Ride. So what's the deal? Are the Laffing Devils's & Sinister Mob real Motorcycle Clubs? Is the war real? If you go to the Dicovery Channel Website you can read all of the Bios of the Club Members. It is my understanding that the name Sinister Mob is really owned by the Discovery Channel. Real or Fake you have to admit that this is good TV. I like the characters in the show. Bubba, Griz, Tank & Rockem seem to be real people. My prediction is that there will be a "Patch Over" between the two clubs. Tell me what you think!

EVENT: RV SHOW AT CAL EXPO

I have been doing some research on the internet (Don't quote me) but, near as I can tell it looks like La Mesa RV is putting on an RV show At Cal Expo April 4 thru 7 at Cal Expo. Now get this. Parking is Free & Admission is free as well. I know, sounds too good to be true huh? Do your homework & I will see you there. What I want is called a Park Model Trailer. A park Model Trailer gets towed to one spot & that's about it. It would be nice to have a Park Model Trailer at Lake Havasu in Arizona or at a nice Lake in California. It would be a great investment to have a place like this to just chill out & relax. Have a great weekend!

MTV BUCKWILD STAR FOUND DEAD:

Just got done surfing the internet & found this article about MTV Buckwild Star Shain Gandee. Shain has been found dead along with two other men. I am in total shock. OMG. Shain was one of my favorite Characters on the show. Here's the article: A cast member of MTV reality show “Buckwild” was found dead in rural West Virginia on Monday after being reported missing by family members following a late-night session in a local bar. Shain Gandee, 21, was found dead in a car along with two other men including his uncle David on Monday morning in Sissonville, Kanawha County, a spokeswoman for County Commissioner Kent Carper told Reuters. “This is a very sad and tragic event. We live in a very small community. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Gandee family,” Carper said in a statement. Gandee was one of the lead cast members of “Buckwild,” which follows a group of young adults living in rural West Virginia and has attracted some criticism for its portrayal of the cast’s hard-partying ways. Gandee was often seen on the show “four-wheeling” in his truck, driving in circuits on off-road terrain. The Kanawha County Sheriff’s Department did not release any information on the cause of death, saying it was investigating. But the department had earlier issued a missing persons alert for Shain and David Gandee, who family members said were last seen at a local bar in Sissonville at about 3 a.m on Sunday. “The two said they were going four-wheeling in Shain’s Ford Bronco. No one knows where they planned to ride, or the direction in which they left,” the sheriff’s department said in its missing persons statement, adding that foul play was not suspected. MTV said it was “shocked and saddened” by Gandee’s death. “Shain had a magnetic personality, with a passion for life that touched everyone he met and we will miss him dearly,” MTV said in a statement.

HEY SACTOWN: FOCUS ON THE FUNDAMENTALS

I just got done reading about a sexual assault on the American River Parkway, also I read about the Buckhorn Grill in Midtown Sacramento getting shot up with bullets, then there was the Carmichael Stabbing & also there was a Burglary in Citrus Heights where the criminals cut through several walls of three businesses to rob a smoke shop. But hey, no problem! We are going to get a new Arena in Downtown Sacramento! Yeah buddy! I am very upset that hundreds of millions of dollars are going into this project without a vote by Sacramento taxpayers. Could you imagine 200 million dollars of extra Police protection in this city? Could you imagine 200 million dollars of low income housing in this city? Could you imagine 200 million dollars of food for the hungry in Sactown? But don't even think about that. We are getting a new arena! Before you leave my blog be sure to click on the advertisements. God Bless & have a fantastic Easter Holiday!

T.G.I.F.: MAKE YOUR OWN LUCK

I thought that this week would never end. Thank God it did! It's Easter weekend & I am looking forward to some good food & family time. Afterall family is all you really have in this lifetime. I envite all of my readers to check out the new videos that I have posted on the left sidebar of my blog. There are some great recipes including: Steak, Steelhead Trout, Pasta, Chicken, Lamb Burger & The Classic Hamburger. As far as the "Make your own Luck" headline goes I was talking to a couple of my co workers today. They seemed very unhappy with their jobs. Well you know what? Nothing is going to change. You have to take steps & move forward. In other words you have to make your own luck. I look for new opportunities every day. I am not waiting for someone to do somethiung for me. You just have to be proactive! Have a great Easter!

CRAIGSLIST: RANTS 'n' RAVES

I find it interesting that in this day & age, instead of talking to people face to face, we choose to send text messages, send an email or post something online. In these modern times we have became detached as a society. I remember when I was in my 20's there was no cell phones, twitter, facebook, pagers etc. People got together in the flesh face to face. Now look at us. Hovering over our phones like they are some kind of status symbols sending text messages. I have to confess that I probably have surfed the entire internet. One thing that purplexes me is the website called Craigslist.org. I like to read the Missed Connections & Rants 'n'Raves sections. As for me, I am pretty much an open book. I lead a very meek life. Just like Carlo Gambino who controlled a 500 million dollar illegal enterprise. To look at him you would never know his net worth. That's how I live. I would only hope that if you wanted to talk to me you would do it face to face instead of posting online. Have a great day! Peace....
