Not what it seems:

 


Today's Tids Issue 4.712

But it is:

 

Finally, a generation with a Letter that means something – Generation “C”. That’s for Covid, and unless Joe Biden cancels the disease if he’s elected, the current crop of kids will be living with the profound effects for quite a while. And the thinking of an entire generation may change dramatically. Perhaps for the good.

 

Fixing a computer problem is easy. Opening the replacement parts package is hard.

 

The left thinks Kamala Harris is too conservative. Let the battles begin.

 

If I was a writer, I would like be Rod Serling. If I only had that brain, said the Scarecrow.

 

While Serling at times flew beyond the universe it is important to remember that today in 1939 the world first heard “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”. For a dreamer like me, that is a song that never stops ceasing me from the urge to fly. With bluebirds, where troubles melt like lemon drops.

 

Is the continued growth of the stock market too closely aligned with a big bet on a successful vaccine? That is the question.

 

The surrealist panting in the Indian market looked very bazaar.

.

The Question:

What is Ooh-ooh/ Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh/ Ooh-ooh-ooh/ Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh/ Ooh, ooh-ooh/ Ooh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh/ Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh?

 

The Headlines:

--Wall Street Poised For Another Big Rebound;

--Kamala Harris Will Be Officially Introduced As VP Candidate At Event Today.

--Indian Ocean My Be Facing Giant Oil Spill As Serious Cracking May Cause Tanker Mauritius To Break In Half.

--World Covid Cases Pass 20 million.

--Ghislaine Maxwell Unhappy With Prison Conditions; Too Many Body Scans And Nosey Guards, She Says.

--Health Experts Leery of Putin’s Rush To Vaccine Solution.

--Kelley Clarkson Replaces Simon Cowell On AGT.

--Entertainment Industry Giant Sumner Redstone Dead At 97.

 

I’m proud of the fact that I like what a lot of food writers describe as bland food. If you call rich, creamy chicken gravy bland.

 

There’s no truth to the rumor that the Cleveland Indians may begin wearing a caricature of Gandhi on their sleeves so they won’t be cowed into changing their beloved, historic team name.

 

Three members of the ultra-left “Squad”, Tlaib, Omar and AOC, were easily reelected. There goes the theory that Americas will not stand for aggressive socialism and vote out extremists. Kind of scary.

 

Have you noticed that chefs today put peppers of one color or another into just about everything? I may give up going to restaurants.

 

I just got kicked out of a flat earth Facebook group because I asked if the 6 Foot social distancing had pushed anybody over the edge yet.

 

I write a lot of stories, and always strive to find a decent ending. Sometimes I feel one or two may be a bit trite, cliched. But we may all have experienced investing hours of our time in a multi-episode Netflix series only to find that the writer and director hadn’t a clue about how to end it. Maybe I should start writing for profit.

 

Did you hear about the Rabbi who had a special service for Seniors? It was called grey at the temple. (Thanks to the creators of “Shoe” comic strip.)

 

Yesterday I wrote of one ingredient towards entering the day happy is reading the comics. Yesterday a carpenter came to my place to fix something. He immediately asked if he should wear a mask, I said, “Batman says yes”. He immediately broke into a smile because he had also read the Mother Goose and Grimm strip that had Batman telling Robin who was on the way out the door, “Don’t forget to wear your mask.”. At once we were friends. Comics people laugh together.

 

If Watson isn’t the most famous doctor then Who is.

 

Big College football fans are probably being fitted for straitjackets as now two big conferences have squashed the fall season. But SEC Giant and last year’s National Champ LSU, according to the coach, is taking a big step towards safety and will play – They, he says are reducing their stadium capacity to 50,000. Yup, that should do it.

 

The Answer:

Those words of beauty are in fact the final 7 lines of the song, Somewhere over a Rainbow. Yes, they actually printed them on the lyrics sheet.

 

Finding what you love over the rainbow is a thrill that never ceases.

 

Eva Cassidy sings it well, btit is also her story is one of hope, and dreams too.
