Just Du-et! ("It takes two...baby...🎝...just maybe...🤑)

Like Me and You, right?! Punctuated, well intended, for you and for me, for affect...

Just what does it take? "Well, it doesn't take a Genius"...this time to figure this out...the new equation...

A writer, a singer...plus a (under)writer, a ringer...

Golden Oldies...Olympic Gold...diggers!

"That's all she wrote..." (As in "abrupt! termination of a project, one's hopes, dreams...")

"Too early to tell..." That is, I don't yet have enough information, especially facts to give you the whole story...I'd be making a judgement call...I'd be pressed to...(doesn't seem to stop them, "The Press" from doing so, these daze, does it..."I think she's going to come out and hit it...slip up...choose so-and-so...") --talk about the twisties!

"Time will tell..." Along with a horde of what we grew up with, known semi-fondly as gossip columnists, which are now, literally, a dime a gigabyte...Why don't we, for a change, just wait and listen...

"It's her story to tell...in her own words, on her own dime, I mean time..."

"You wish, I mean swish, I mean..."

"Swoosh!" Not the first thing that came to mind...? Well it wasn't at first for one CD either. That is, when Carolyn Davidson, who started at Portland State as a journalist major, transformed into a 'lady of the Knight' -- an otherwise departure (an about face of sorts) as a result of an innocent move, to take a design course...to "fill an empty elective" Which was partly underwritten by one Phil Knight, as in one-cofounder of the Gazillion brand, "Nike"...whose trademark "Swoosh!" was created by C.D. at a tune of $2/hour for what's known now as a side gig, then called "freelance" ("free" being the operant word...) which eventually netted her, among other things, a diamond ring, plus a share or two, or...500 of Nike stock (which has since split)...

"Least, I mean last I knew..." Carolyn, who eventually re-earned the moniker "Logo Lady" has since retired (or has she simply "gone into hiding, like lots of celebrated celebrities and other targets of the Paparazzi..) But not "Swoosh" which became strongly aligned with guess who...

"O" If that's all you could come up with, you wouldn't be wrong. Given that University of Oregon, whose simple logo was designed by Nike in 1998 (Genius, if you ask me...) The same one which hosted the last few U.S. Olympic trials? You ask...the same one that came up just short of knighting Mr. Knight, for the now billion amounts of donations to the "Mighty Ducks" campaign...the one that is in the midst of...renaming...? Well,  O...K, the latter is just rumored...

Dis-in-Genius...If you ask me...but, as the old saying goes...

"Who asked You...or Me?!" A natural follow-up, comeback, along with, what else, as in what's next...

Exposures and their Counter-parts - an Olympic feat.

  "King David, where art Thou?" Here and Now: When I need and you most...for a quote, a tip, let alone a quip... Clever crafted commentary: At his best, in his field, "In my humble opinion..."  "Coming to you tonight..." Each and every night, assuming we welcomed him with his partner, known in our home, as simply "Chet" when we referred to him on his own, but more formally when paired with "David" as the "Huntley-Brinkley" reporting team... Distinctly Brinkley: who got called on whenever things around here, US, were on the brink... "Sow, David..." It's how I heard it, and still remember it, as he was asked to comment, well into the eve of what was casted to be his final telecast of this type, on the eve of a second coming...of the Clintons, their return to the White House...a second (merry) go round... "For the love of Mike!" While he was not shy of the microphone, having gotten used to one on his desk ...
