Just like plastic.


Today's Tids Issue 4,036
For giving an inch or two along the way:

When the stock market soars, college endowment funds have more money to give to needy students, public employee retirement funds are safer, states, cities and towns fiancées stabilize. A very small percentage of Americans make huge amounts of money for taking risks that produce. But, in reality 100 % live better in a more stable financial environment. We have this political BS that tends to dwell on negative for party gains, forgetting that it is always a combination of ideas and ideals that is necessary for great countries to operate for all.

I think that Oprah is peaking too early.

Scientists try to achieve new developments, and one of the biggest problems has always been coming up with a formula that balances negatives with positives. When developing a new plastic for instance, if you are looking for clarity, the you may have to give up some strength, flexibility, elasticity or FDA approval characteristics. In other words, developing the perfect outcome is always matter of tweaking the whole. Fortunately, political activists don’t make plastics.

People who read the Tids on worldviewetc.blogspot.com are less likely to see typos. Sorry about a couple of deplorable typo messes yesterday. I hate myself for that…for a minute or two.

In addition to Typos, I sent out yesterday’s Tids with today’s Date! But, it is much too early to lock me away.

The Question:

I have never been a big fan of having the Giant “Swoosh” or the UnderArmor thing spread across my clothing. The big logo phenomena could change with the fast-growing Jacques minimalist workout gear. No logos, subdued colors are its claim to fame in addition to outstanding super tech fabrics. Unfortunately, after wearing logos, working out is number 2 on my dislike list.

BTW, being an old advertising/publishing guy, I always made money by displaying ads for corporate symbols and messages. So, wearing logos for free was against my inner soul.

The very best, most delicious bacon scone can be found at Fresh Market on Washington Square in Newport Rhode Island – just in case you are driving by some day.

As old Satchel Paige said famously, “Don’t look back, something may be gaining on you.” Never has the threat of being caught been more serious than today when it appears that technology can change races for market domination in a nano-second. Latest to be looking over their shoulders are the rapidly expanding drugstore companies like CVS and Walgreens. The noise that has them rattled is that Amazon has been talking to Federal Regulators. And, drug makers are looking for better ways to distribute. This will be interesting to watch.

Over the years I tired of Robert DiNiro films where the acclaimed actor seemed to have trouble getting beyond being DiNiro. Now he has become particularly annoying as an ill-informed spokesperson for the left a truly smug chortler.

In case you missed it Robert, the unemployment for those Americans without a college degree fell from 5.1% to 4.2% in the year ending December 31. 2017. In addition, in the last year over 600,000 of those Americans forced to work at part-time jobs have found full time employment at better wages. In other words, beyond the Tweets, something is working…well.

The Answer:
Some would say that the UN itself should be Ill-Fated, but before that the post WWI League of Nations was a total disaster. Bonus: Suiss National Bank beats out super profitable Apple by a healthy margin for the top spot in big profitability. Super Bonus. Samsung lays out $44 Billion in capital expenditures, far outdistancing traditional big spenders Shell and Exxon. You can see why Apple is always looking over its shoulder… and why SK is negotiating with NK for peace at the border.

My heart is starting to pound a bit as I look forward to the NE Pats Playoff game against Tennessee on Saturday night. Maybe that’s why I had so many typos yesterday.

Maybe It’s more than a feeling By Boston:
