Today's Tids Issue 3,459
Opening Stuff:
Some
moments stop clocks, become so meaningful they’re like living
cells in your body. You relive them easily like yesterdays were today. You may
be caught smiling to yourself when walking down a street. You feel little tugs
on your heart when what may have been at the time just insignificant glances or
movements or expressions; now flashing by your mind for no other reason than
that they are always there in your memories. Our brains must hold an awful lot
of gigabytes. Perhaps, though, thoughts of all of those you have loved are not
just in your mind but part of you. I’m smiling today.
Several
of my closest friends are very good tennis players. Tennis must
be good for building character.
Most
people, including all of those who believe whole-heartedly
in Climate Change, are not worried about it and rank it low on concerns about the
future of their nation and world. Millions upon millions of people seem to understand
that it is natural in a complex world ro a climate to alter its behavior over
time. My guess is that the last thing people want politicians involved in is changing
the weather patterns…like they have really done well with everything else.
This
may warm your hearts, Department:
Letterman says that Georg Bush is serious about fighting
global warming “and is sending 20,000 troops to the sun! – Jay Leno predicts
that “if Global Warming continues Hillary Clinton will thaw out by 2015.” –Jimmy
Kimmel Says that GW’s plan to fight global warming is to lower the temperature
by changing form Fahrenheit to Celsius. –According to Conan O’Brien, “Scientists
say that because of Global Warming the oceans are going to rise 4 ½ feet. They
say their only concerns are that Gary Coleman may drown. Shoot me.

Candidates
Honesty and Trustworthy Poll, Department:
Ben Carson
is viewed by Americans as far and away the most honest of them all, grabbing
60% who say he is honest. That translates to an “Honesty Score” of +34
(Difference Between Honest % and non-honest %) Next on the score sheet after
Carson is Bernie Sanders at +12 followed by Kasich at +11 and Huck at +10.
Hillary comes in at a meager -26 (That’s “-“ as in minus). Her percentage score
is 35% down from the previous poll score of 45%. Her “not honest”. percentage is
61%. Trump has a minus 18, slightly worse than Christy at minus 16. The rest
are Rubio +5, Paul +4, Fiorina +4, Cruz -2 and Jeb -4. Clinton does better
among Dems with 68% honest. Tis was a Fox News telephone Poll.
The
football picks didn’t suck last week. We brought our total
to 77-42 or up a notch to 64.7%. My goal is to get to Tom Brady’s passing
percentage! Ok, tonight we have a good old fashion Ohio fight with Paul Browns
old team going against the Paul Brown family’s currant team. I think it will be
a good one, but Cinncy keeps on proving each week they are not a fluke; I believe
Cleveland is one of those teams on the cusp. I gotta to go Bennies. Sorry
friends by the lake. The game of the week has to be the Pack and the Panthers.
Tough call, but I’m looking for a GB rebound. The Patriots have had a week to
rest injuries, but the Skins will not be a walk in the park. Pats. The Saints are
much better now, and Tennessee had their fling in game one. NO. The Dolphins might
find their legs again in warmish Buffalo, but the Bills are due and I’m with Rex
this week. War of the Week II is the tough Rams against a very good Minn team.
I’m picking the Rams. The Jets should be able to coax their fans off the
Triborough Bridge with a win over Jax. I’m also excited about Oakland’s
emergence. I’m letting my heart pick an upset over the Steelers in a very tough
game. If the Jints have any points left after last week’s record, they should
take the Bucs. Or maybe not. Do you feel my angst here? NYG. The Falcons seem
to running out of steam, but SF isn’t gaining any. Going with the home team, SF.
This will be a TV and main stream media favorite with Manning versus Manning’s
replacement. The problem is the Indy team and the replacement are not looking that
good. Denver is good enough to overcome the crowd noise. I like the Eagles over
the Cowboys and The Chargers over the Bears in the who cares bowl. Gentlemen,
inflate your footballs!
I
may have suck it up and root for the tattletale Colts over
Denver. The Pats need a Denver loss somewhere along the way.
There
are few words more descriptive than “Sleaze”.
Why
can’t the Boston Bruins get speed skaters like Tyler
Seguin?
It
says here that more people are having sex to fulfill their
Fitbit requirements.
More
and more people are looking at “Black Lives Matter”
and wondering why there isn’t more focus on getting rid of drugs and gangs in
neighborhoods.

Gossip, Department:
Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani are dating. Stefani
says she’s doing it to keep Shelton’s hands off her team.
Marco
Rubio is learning fast what it means to be and emerging
frontrunner in modern day politics. The sleaze operatives are dumping a muddy California
mountain on him
The
Parking Lot: Chapter 25 continues…
Nancy whispered,
“Jared, don’t turn and shoot, it’s me, Nancy. She heard large exhale of Jared’s
breath. She knew he was getting tense about the mess she had dragged him into.
Actually, she thought, he came willingly. He just didn’t know what it was all
about. The 2 by 4 in the parking lot should have been a clue. It was for her. “Just
stay where you are. I’ll come to you.” Still whispering, “You walk through the bushes
like an elephant! And don’t laugh”.
She
magically appeared by his side and gave him a little hug. She didn’t think he
wanted to let go. “So why are you here,” she said as she directed him north
into a little hidden glade. “What’s going on? You should have called.”
“I’m not
that smart.” He paused. “As you remember Beth and I were to keep tabs on Fred
to see where he might lead us, to give you time, you know, with everything you
have to do.” He went on to explain the story of the cavalcade of cars.
“Lets see
if we can get closer,” she said grabbing his hand.
“Closer?”
The birds
stopped chirping as the soft rumble powerful engine of the BMW oozed across the
ground to their ears. She felt his hand squeeze hers tighter.
The
Answer:
1. LSV is supposed to be a warning to the young and
timid but is probably more of draw to the young and curious. It stands for
Language, Sexual Situations and Violence. 2. This was just a silly question to
make you think twice about the 4th election of FDR. It was tis
election that gave us the 22nd Amendment, an amendment that some
have said that Obama would like to break. He could just make an executive decision
and go around the Supreme Court too.

close it out with Chris Stapleton: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdpHdzimhRQ
