Putin continues bombing Ukraine with missiles and 140 attack drones while preparing the Washington attitude for today. Today when Ukraine, U.S., and European Nations meet to work out a cease fire and/or end of war. The Alaska Summit was a failure. Washington could be, probably will be similar.

Trust Putin not. Trust Trump not. Putin wants to come out the winner. Will not budge till he does. Trump wants to look good….The peacemaker. Actually the phony. He will do and say whatever is necessary to drive a cease fire to end the war. The Noble Peace Prize more attractive than a sincere result.

Trump spoils and destroys everything he touches. Once again, cares only for himself. His reputation. Not that of the U.S., Ukraine or other European Nations. He hungers for a “false Nobel Peace Prize.”

Better the war continues rather than end for a few months to satisfy Trump’s ego. A joint group of European nations can defeat Russia. Time for everyone to stop screwing around and do the necessary to resolve the situation FOR REAL. Russia cannot stand alone against Ukraine and the European Nations joined together.

I hope today does not result in a mistake in Washington. Trump has been involved in too much lately. This is the largest of the large events he has gotten into. His success rate sucks.

Note also that Putin’s word is useless. Both he and Trump would be giving guarantees: Toilet paper in an out house.

Erin keeps moving out into the Atlantic. Good as it keeps the storm away from American shores. It will keep playing between a a 3-5 Category.

Impossible but possible. It is being suggested Erin could result in 100 foot waves. Does not make sense. On the other hand, who knows?

Bikinis lower! Ho, ho, ho! Shorter this year. Best described as “where the cheeks get cheekier and the number of thongs crept up.” Described also as “more revealing.”

Five years ago, bikinis had 70 percent full coverage. Today, 70 percent cheeky. Not suggesting either good, bad or indifferent. Merely spelling out the line bikinis have taken.

I have become a cane freak in my old age. Even further, a walker advocate. Use both at the moment.

Require better. Otherwise, I continue to fall, etc.

A new cane has hit the market. I have ordered one. Sounds to have more protections than others.

The cane is called the “Ready Walker Cane.” Sales price around $50. Suggested to be more than a cane. It is described as a “smart mobility system” that supports the whole body

Many features. A light. Necessary. I have been carrying a flash light in my pocket evenings. It also has a touch panic alarm. Important also. Several times I have fallen in the dark of night and no one around.

A second handle. Almost mid way down. Never know when one can he handy. Especially in getting up. The older one is harder to stand with following a fall.

Quad footed. A major assist to non-slipping.

Referred to also as a “confidence builder.” I shall see.

Men wore wigs in colonial times and earlier. They were considered an upper class fashion accessory. Men had begun losing hair at 17. Prematurely gray and tending bald by 30.Both problems caused by syphilis and its treatments.

Leave it to Donald’s team. The Trump team is claimed to have left sensitive documents in the Printer at an Alaska hotel. The documents left the names and phone numbers of 3 U.S. staff members as well as the names of 13 U.S. and Russian state leaders.

Incomitance?

The word is the U.S. is ready to give Ukraine security guarantees. I do not trust any guarantees given by Trump to the Ukraine to resolve the war problem.

Fantastic golf! Scottie Scheffler chipped in from 82 feet on the 17th hole for a birdie in winning the BMW Championship.

Outstanding Letter to the Editor in KONK Life 8/18 by Roger C. Kostmayer. One of the best: Putin’s “Bitch.”

Discusses Trump’s submissiveness to Putin. A MUST read!

Enjoy your day!
