Let’s kick around another deflated football while the culture implodes.



Today's Tids Issue 3.391
Opening Stuff:

Let’s see, Carly Fiorina is both a woman and a business executive, which seems to mean that she possesses the characteristics of the two candidates who are getting voters excited – Hill and the Trumpeteer. She looks more presidential than Trump and is more credible that the Hill. I don’t know about you but I’m voting for Carley with Ben Carson or Scott Walker for VP. Or maybe, Marco Rubio.

Or, how about Ben Carson for President and Kelley Aiotte for VP. Yeah, that’s it. That’s how I’m going. There are just so many great options and we have so far to go. The Repubs just don’t know the riches they have.

This is the best season of the year. You know that season, when corn stalks are high and ears of that succulent vegetable are sweet and tender. For a little over a month, I’m a vegetarian, as long as there is some good meat or fish to go with that luxuries corn. “I’m in heaven, I’m in heaven, and my heart beats so that I can hardly speak, and I seem to find the happiness I seek, when buttery corn is running down my cheek…”

Will we get to that point when the weight of Hillary’s misdeeds will be to much even for the national media? That is the big question.

Of course, the big news since yesterday is the Brady affair. He pretty much proved when he tore apart Indy and beat a solid Seattle team using League inflated footballs that the ball does not make a difference with this great player and leader. But then, somewhere along the way, he decided to become Nixon. And now he looks real bad with weak excuses. Personally I can agree with not turning over a phone in this new world of sensationalized celebrity leaks, but his excuse was basically stupid. As one woman,  lawyer wag Kimberly Gilfoyle, said, “If I was him I would have said something like – There I was coming home from the stadium and when I walked upstairs I saw my beautiful wife naked in the tub. I got so excited that I jumped in forgetting that it would destroy my phone.” How could Goodell argue with that?

The Question:
Who are considered the worst of TV parents in shows over the years? Hint: Cosby was a good parent on TV)

The Headlines:
--Brady Blasts NFL In Rebuttal Speech; Says He And All Pats Personnel Are Completely Innocent; Adds That He And Lawyers Exhausted Every Avenue To Give Investigators What Was Available; Bob Kraft: “I Was Wrong To Put My Faith In the NFL.”
--Gold Prices Expected To Continue Downward Spiral; Market Opens Strong.
--Conservative Congressman Mark Meadows Files Motion To Oust Boehner.
--Overdose Deaths In America An Epidemic; More People Die from OD’s Each Year Than Car Crashes; Media Would Care More If It Were Dolphins Washed Up Upon the Shore.
--NYC Mayor Diblasio Says Poor Deserve Free WiFi; City To Spend Millions; Obama Orders Pell Grants For Prisoners.
--Top Afghan Taliban Head Mullah Omar Said To Have Died; reclusive Leader Shielded al-Qaida And Hid Bin Laden.
--Turkey Launches Heaviest Air Stirkes Against Kurds.
--Young And Educated Greeks Running For Borders As  Crisis Deepens.

If the voter blocs used their own eyes and ears and resisted seeing candidates through the jaundiced words of the media or the ridiculing barbs of comedians, then I believe they’d see some very sound sides of many entangled in the Republican pile. For instance, elitist wags love to pile on Perry, but this very successful Texas governor makes a lot of sense to me, especially when he talks about the importance of competition between states as vital to an energetic economy. The states that are dying are those dependent on representatives return tax dollars to sates He also points out the diversity fo these states and that this insane Common core idea where some bureaucrat buried in the bowels of Washington creates curriculums. Common Core – worst thing ever. I could vote for Perry.

Actually, I’m developing a new formula to aid voters. It’s called the M/CA Index, or Media/Comedian Attack Index. I am accumulating attack data from the activities of these two largest purveyors of misinformation. What we will find is that the candidates under attack the most are the best candidates of all. It’s not complicated – if the foe is scared of  a person they will tear them down with

The Tids Business department is also getting into the act with their own new forecasting index. Based on many months of research each year for 10 years it appears there is a correlation between the increase of crowding on golf courses and the imminent decline of the stock markets. So, while the market came through well during the often ominous July reporting season, the green, green fairways of of golfdom are bustling with way too many people. It is time to sell. 

I was walking by the door of The Tids Entertainment editors office and noticed him in there working out on various back breaking machines. Red faced and sweaty, he turned when I entered and said he is getting ready for the Annual Tids series of reports on America’s Got Talent, one of the more exciting Tids features for readers. They are paring down right now for Radio City, and it won’t be long till the best of the acts remain. Two of the more enjoyable that have passed through already are ventriloquist puppeteers Irv and Paul Zirdin. And the show seems better pverall, probably because they have somewhat muted the judges and Nick the host. Stay tuned, it will be exciting.

I met an Independent who says he is definitely not a Democrat and will vote for any candidate…who isn’t a Republican. Got it?

The Parking Lot: Chapter 7 continues…
  Since the discovery that launched extreme paranoia in this generally happy-go-lucky young woman, Nancy had become very cautious, maybe too cautious. Nancy turned the simple task of returning home into a chore. But, she knew the stakes were high, and a little extra time being careful would mean a lot of extra time on earth.
 About fifty yards down her quarter mile driveway, she turned into a what looked like a large shrub. She stopped, left the engine running and opened the door and stepped forward towards the big green bush. She yanked on a concealed handle, pulled, and the bush split apart and moved aside revealing a small road into a cave like space formed by large rhododendrons. She quickly drove the car into the safe space, came out, closed th bushes and then used branches to hide the tire tracks.
  On the other side of the rhodies there was a narrow path cutting through dense foliage. There was a bike leaning against a tree. She decided that today she might be better off walking. Her instincts for survival were maturing rapidly. Within minutes she arrived at a spot where she could see her home, but would be well hidden form any observes in the area. She stood quietly. It seemed like five minutes, but was only a moment when a large rather fat man came from behind her house. She moved back into the bushes and held her breath.
