A loverly shade of grey.




Today's Tids Issue 3,873 
For appreciation:

There many embattled points of land along the he eastern coast -- Montauk on Long Island’s end, Provincetown at the very tip of Cape Cod, Hatteras in NC – to name a few. You know those places where storms seem most fierce and at the same time incredibly beautiful. Standing on the edges of those US eastern boundaries gives you a sense of the earth’s end when storms rage, as waves grow larger and the crashes creep further into shore; as the winds whip though crevices of your building and the windows rattle. Darkened skies over sideways rain and churning surf thrill me today as stood neath seeing the grandeur through widened eyes of a young boy. I’m standing above the roiling see, and I feel the surge within me.

Well, it seems like the bird wars are on. As one of our great bright, Tid’s wits said after reading of that possibility, “The Bird Wars look like a possible Cardinal sin to me!”

After reading parts of the New CBO report, I’m seeing a lot of “What-If’s” which would provide plenty of leeway for conjecture for any conceivable opposing argument. So it will either be very successful or incredibly hurtful depending on which spin-meister shouts the loudest, and the general public will left again the darkness of a raging storm. Hopefully the sun will be brought when the clouds lift. But, I wouldn’t count on the clouds of dispute to blow away soon.

The Question:
What are the  Top Five places where we could find other life forms in the universe
The Headlines:
--Stocks Look Bright After S&P Hits New High Yesterday Following Fed Minutes; OPEC Extends Oil Production Cut Nine Months To Fight Glut
--New Fox Poll Has Trump Ratings Moving Downward Among Registered Votes; 81% Of Repubs Still For Embattled Prez, Down Form 84%; Most New Negativity Comes From Firing Of Comey.

Now without the availability of “The Voice” commentary to fill up the Tids, I may move back into recipes. And of course, I have to reboot that novel which was getting into the exciting end game. I also may employ some talented, intelligent young teens to gives us their view of the world, that  sometimes the older generations have trouble comprehending.

Realtors say that there are four things you can do to your home which can pay off big at the time for selling: Replacing doors and windows, especially front facing for curb appeal. Constructing a deck at ate rear of the home. Third, and the project that always pays off most these days is adding insulation for a tighter cooler summer, warmer winter; a more efficient home. And four, a bit more of an investment that always pays off, adding a second story addition. Sounds ambitious, but not as much as your stomach may tell you at the time.  So, those four sound pretty simple. But, I have my doubts about the author. He or she suggests with glee replacing a Wood Front Door with a Steel door. Ouch! How sacrilegious! I would replace a steel front door with a creative wooden front door. Period.

When you get a quarter pounder with cheese at Mac’s place, it is imperative that you get a small fries whether or not you want it. It’s just one of those things your do.

Adding to the “Bird Wars”, a reader reminds us that the offensive aggressive Blue Jay is a first cousin of the sissy Cardinal. Maybe we need a council meeting between the Chicadees, thrushes and friends with the backyard Cardinal to work out a strategic peace agreement that would have the Red bird bidding his cousin too stifle it for the good for backyard harmony. But does he have the guts?

Word of the day comes from a reader: Sophonsified (Soffonsified). This word is not in the Dictionary, but should be in the Canadian dictionary as it widely used and accepted there. When finished eating and a hostess asks if you had enough to eat, you say more than sufficiently Sophonsified, meaning “I’ve had more than enough, thank you.”

Britain’s PM May is irate with the NY Times. It’s about info they shouldn’t have and certainly shouldn’t have printed. Nobody knows wo was the leaker, but at least She and DT agree on one thing.

The Answer:
#1 is Ganymede, a Jupitor Moon. Next is Tabby’s Star – 15v00 Light Years away for here. 3 is LHS 1140b, a recently discovered “Super Earth”. Kepler -452b may be one of the best places to find extraterrestrial life. It may be difficult to get there, though. Number 5 is Kepler – 186f is the first earth sized planet orbiting its sun at an inhabitable distance.

So, there you have, it another Tids.
