Greening of November.


Today's Tids Issue 4,774

Too much hypocrisy for me:

 

“Honor to the soldier and sailor everywhere, who bravely bears his country’s cause.  Honor, also, to the citizen who cares for his brother in the field and serves, as best he can, the same cause.” -- Abraham Lincoln. I case you’ve been in hiding, this is veterans week in preparation for November 11. More tomorrow.   

 

Isn’t it interesting that up here in the north it feels like spring, and the Masters Tournament starts to tomorrow? Maybe God does have an ownership stake in Augusta National. Yes, it is finally time for the great tournament that has always united golfers and lovers of nature. Time to be soothed by the lush green valleys of Augusta National. The odds makers have installed Bryson DeChambeau as f the favorite at 7/1. The next 9 in order are Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm Dustin Johnson, Justin Thomas, Xander Schauffle, Brooks Koepka, Tyrrell Hatten, Patrick Cantey and Colin Morikawa. Last year’s Champ and golf superstar, Tiger Woods, is at 14. Former Champion Jordan Spieth, a great young golfer who as never been the same since that one disastrous journey through Augusta, is at #28

 

4 years ago Key Dems were calling for the Impeachment of a president not yet inaugurated. Today they are trying to tell the country that we always come together after an election. Really, can you believe anything that any politician has to say? Honest. Can you? Spare me.

 

When attempting to fight fire with fire, remember that the Fire Department always uses water.

 

One generally accepted theory for Trump’s loss was that after the first debate when the President looked terrible, a lot of fence sitters who were a key base in2016, sent in their mail ballots buccally saying, “Enough”. The fact that he improved somewhat after had no impact on already lost votes.

 

The Question:

What are the the oldest Colleges In America?

 

The Headline:

--Dow Looks To open Higher; Nasdaq To Languish As Money Moves Out Of Tech Into New Opportunities And Under Valued Stocks; Vaccine Euphoria Easing; Boeing Boosts Dow.

--Obamacare Back In Supreme Court today.

--Trump Donors Backing off Funding Alleged Voter Fraud Law Suits.

--EU Suing Amazon On Anti-trust Charges For “Warping The On Line Retail Market” Through Data Collection.

--George Bush Congratulates Biden; Liked His Victory Speech.

--China’s Xi Withholding Biden Congrats; Said To Be Weighing Future Relations With US.

--In Mozambique, Militant Islamists Beheaded More Than Fifty People.

--Former Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates Expected To Make A Comeback Under Biden; Michigan’s Whitmer Rejects Biden Cabinet Role.

 

Did you hear about the couple who went to the popular Chinese restaurant and ordered their special “Chicken Surprise”? The waiter brought out a magnificent dish centered around a steaming a black cast iron pop. The wife can hardly wait and lifts the lid only to see two beady he eyes looking around. she immediately drops the lid. After her husband quickly does the same and sees the same eyes, he calls the waiter and explains their dismay. The waiter asks, “What did you order?” He says, “Chicken Surprise,” “Ah,” says the waiter, “my mistake. I brought you Peeking Duck!”  

 

So, based on what I’ve been hearing in the post-election exclamations and pronouncements from the presumed winners  is that Joe is seeing unity among all and Kamala will be the Vice Present too woman only.

 

I have a great loyal reader who really gets upset when I create my own grammar rules. Am I tearing down statues too?

 

It sems based on all the news reports, that Liberal leaders of countries across the world are saying, “Welcome Back America.” Which probably could be interpreted as “We love your Pocketbook.”

 

Grocery stores are going back to limiting purchase quantities. It’s good they decided to that early so we don’t get runaway hoarding. You know people… I got mine.

 

I watched Joe B last night say that it is time for all Americans to begin listening to each other. I agree. But when was the last time the intolerant left ever listened to antibody other than themselves.

 

When Pfizer announced its big news yesterday, my first thought was that Trump would be over the top irate because it wasn’t announced three weeks ago.

 

In today’s opening quote, Abe would have said if it was 2020, “Honor, also, to the citizens who care for their brothers and sisters in the field and serves, as best they can, the same cause.”

 

The left’s idea of unity is that we Repubs and moderate Dems acquiesce, and the left tells us how to run our lives.

 

The Answer:

One thing about this question is that the answer never changes. But today, with all of the historical revisionism going on you never know. Harvard is the oldest followed by William & Mary, St, John’s College (Annapolis, Md), Yale, Washington College (Chestertown Md), U Pennsylvania, Moravian College (Bethlehem Pa), University of Delaware, Princeton Washington and Lee, and Columbia. (Note: Moravian was the first college in America to educate Women, as well as Native Americans in their own language.

 

I went to college in walking distance of Moravian College. One of the big events of my freshman year was when hundreds of students from all male Lehigh went on a “panty raid” to that small insular all female college. Noting happened. But it was a nice night for a boisterous walk through the city. Remember Panty raids. Who says yeh 1950’s wasn’t wild and crazy?

 

82 Years ago today, the Great Kate Smith introduced “God Bless America”. I thought it a nice way to prepare for tomorrow.
