Some Odds and Bits...

I did not get home from the bullfight until very late, so I am more inclined towards three dot writing...

Ouch. This is not something I usually like to do...

Har Har har...

Anyway...Why would I trust a website to deliver good medications when they use deception to lure visitors to their website? Ditto mortgage brokers and double ditto laywers.

Oh yeah. Dot dot dot...

Is it just my imagination or are the Turlock forcados looking pretty sad? They have courage and determination, but it seems that their group work is suffering. Of course those were monsters last night: lots of prime rib came through the toril.

Now, this in no means indicates that Artesia is looking much better. I think everyone, including the diehard Turlock enthusiasts, felt for them last night and admired their willingness to go back over and over again to the same ungrababble toiro.

Dotdtootododooootttt

How about Alberto Conde? I don't think I had ever seen him before. He has style, grace, and established good control of his bulls, even the second (rather difficult) bull. One thing that I liked about him is that when he was dealt a difficult bull he made sure to first and foremost torear. Then, once he established his mastery over the bull, he tried some fancy moves. Pedro Franco bombed his second bull because he kept sinking lower in lower in his attempts to cover up his inability to control the bull by trying (and missing) increasingly fancy moves.

First, he should have quit when he failed to place the two smaller darts. Coming back with a banderilla was pathetic. Second, he should have had the cojones to refrain from coming back into the ring for honors. He and the forcado, who also failed, should have made their salute from the gate and gone back to the callejon. The forcado had that decency, why not the horseman?

DOT DOT DOT (DASH DASH DASH DOT DOT DOT - and quick, before this entry gets even worse)

I get to see Tony Bennett on Thursday night! I left my heart... in...San...Fran...Cisco. Yeee haw!

Dot (oh stop it already!)

Anyway, I have little to do and a lot of time. No. Reverse that. So I might or might not post my risotto nero recipe. If not today, then tomorrow. Certainly not yesterday.
