Today's Tids Issue
4.059
For Last minute Panic:
Tis
the eve of that wonderful day for hearts
Proclaiming deep love. which never parts.
That urgent feeling; a heart beginning to flutter,
Like dreams of pancakes dripping with butter.
Instead
of self-driving cars, companies souled working on cars that don’t
need maintenance or repairs. Kids just don’t want to grow up to be auto
mechanics any more. Tech schools across the country are saying kids who used to
sign up for mechanics curriculums are definitely now looking at computer based
careers.
Some
of the more progressive cities and states around the
country are moving towards becoming 5G capable. I can see a time when having the
fastest, most up to date broad based internet capability will become a key tourist
attraction, even more than the glorious mountains or roaring oceans.
17
is looking like the average age of the new breed of Olympic
superstars, at least in the adventure sports revolving around snowboards. Red
Gerard and Chloe Kim were both quite amazing.
The
Question:
What are considered the five most expensive dogs,
including both initial and lifetime maintenance costs. Bonus: We know that SAG stands for Screen Actors Guild. What does
ASCAP stand for? Super Bonus: Where
was Abe Lincoln born.
The
Headlines:
--Stocks Could face Pullback Today; Amazon, Barnes
& Noble Laying Off Hundreds Of Exec’s; UnderArmor, Pepsi Beat Street Estimates.
--Trump Food Stamp Plan Would Replace Cash Disbursements
With Programmed Meal Deliveries.
--SK Prez Says Washington Willing To Talk To NK;
Says Trump Should Give Talks A Chance.
--Russians Dead In Battle Against US Led Forces In
Syria.
--Israel Assad Conflict Could be Escalating.
--African Lions Maul Poacher: Head Left behind A Warning
To Other Poachers.
Almost
everybody who moves away from their home to a new
beautiful place, in the end tries to create services and environments that are just
like home – whether you are an immigrant from a
foreign land or just an American looking for nirvana in another state or
city.
The
softer golf ball is all the rage, and in fact many companies
like Calloway have been stealing Titlist’s thunder as the most popular balls
for lighter hitting amateurs. That could cease as Titleist has just announced their
own version of a soft ball, -- the best one over, of course.
While
individual companies like the good news of tax cuts and
manufacturing expanding budgets, the stock markets are worried as usual about
the good news. Overstimulation requiring higher interest rates and other cautionary
lockdowns are the biggest fears for investors. And that is where we are this Tuesday
morning before Valentine’s day. The cold, black hearts are in control.
As
long as there are voters and politicians catering to voters,
we will always have expanding deficits. Period.
In
these days of global warming, the 2018 Olympics in Korea
have been dubbed “Most Wintry” of all. Brrrr.
The
Michell Obama Portrait is nice art, but it doesn’t represent
the picture of First Lady I have in my mind.
Justice
RB Ginsburg lately has been an outspoken advocate of Democrats,
Hillary and women in general. That doesn’t seem to make her an appealing, unbiased
and fair-minded justice, does it. Unsurprisingly, the press is having mild orgasms
over here quaint outspokenness. Think of the uproar by the same press if John
Scalia or Clarence Thomas had espoused similar universal positions.
When
asked to come up with a maternity pun, I delivered.
Remington
Firearms, one of the grand old companies, is going bankrupt.
The company was cleared of all wrongdoing in the Newtown shooting (As they should
have), but the lingering association has left a permanent scar on the company’s
image. Scarring people and companies seems to be our new national pastime. It
is sad.
It
is beginning to appear that news people are looking for signs
of a ”Trump Slump”. It is certainly obvious to me and should be to the democrat
warriors of the 4th Estate that the biggest threat to a Dem takeover
is a hot economy with lots of union people getting higher paying jobs.
Why
are we fighting in Syria? Why are we fighting in a place
where one of the possible outcomes is the potential of starting accidental war
with Russia.
Things
you may not have known, Department:
The beautiful Pier Angeli married Vic Damone because
her mother would not allow her to marry James Dean, a non-Catholic.
It’s
easier today to be a rebel without a cause if you have a
snowboard.
The
Answer:
The most expensive dog is a Tibetan Mastiff. Next is
Black Russian Terrier followed by Portuguese Water Dog, Irish Wolfhound and Golden
Lab. The Lab costs mount because of traditional bouts with cancer after ten to
twelve years. The other four dogs also have medical expenses, those due to orthopedic
problems, but generally far less than the GL. Bonus: ASCAP stands for American Society of Composers, Authors and
Publishers. Super Bonus: Everybody who
has driven through “The Land of Lincoln”, Illinois, knows he was born in
Kentucky. Right?
Well,
gotta run to the kitchen where I have been cutting hearts
out of pepperoni slices for a special V-day pizza.
