TRUMP TRADING CARDS … WTF????

December 15, 2022 Pearl Leave a comment

Do the pictures in the header of this post absolutely get your heart pumping? Well, for only $99 each, they can be yours!!

Yesterday, Trump announced that he would be making a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT today, Weds, Dec 15^th.

That big announcement was that starting today you can buy individual, digital trading cards which each contain a picture of Trump that “commemorate his life and career”.

We have all had to put up with nonstop crap and garbage from Trump over the past six years. But perhaps, just perhaps, this singularly sick, narcissistic, monumentally offensive and completely transparent scam may finally wake people up to what a complete moron and piece of human waste the man is.

IF YOU THOUGHT CRYPTO WAS BIG

DON’T MISS GETTING IN ON THE

GROUND FLOOR OF THIS

CAN’T-MISS INVESTMENT

OF A LIFETIME.

As befitting of my all-time favorite movie – 1989’s Field of Dreams, starring Kevin Costner, there are already two other links here in the My Favorite Music section of this blog to the original soundtrack.

James Horner composed the music for this movie. Along with John Williams, he is my favorite composer. Horner went on to compose music for many of our best known films, such as An American Tail, Avatar and Titanic, to name just a few. Horner tragically died in June of 2015 at the age of just 61 in a private plane crash.

Near the end of this music section is a link to Horner’s original “A Catch With My Father“. The link I am providing now is to a wonderful, spot-on performance of that same, ending theme of Field of Dreams, which was performed at Fumicité – the Tenerife International Film Music Festival in 2012.

If you are a music nerd like me, please consider listening to “A Catch With My Father” first, and then listen to this link. I have never heard a more perfect rendition, even by the original composer.

This was conducted by Spanish composer Diego Navarro, and is performed by the Tenerife Symphony Orchestra.

Please feel free to add a Comment below if perhaps you too have enjoyed this movie as much as I have over the years, and what you think of this performance. You may also wish to scroll through and listen to some of my other Favorite Music clips. I would like to hear which of them you might also like, and perhaps you can suggest some others to me as well.

Thank you for reading and listening.
