Simple Thoughts


Today's Tids Issue 4,795

Poets see Beneath:

 

The new IPO’s this week are selling like hotcakes at very high prices and some are wondering if this is the sign of an overly euphoric market pumping up a bubble

 

Alcohol: Did you ever hear a good story that started with somebody eating a salad?

 

“Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers.”  --Alfred Lord Tennyson.

 

Super Astronomer Susan Miller (Astrology Zone) each year picks the Zodiac sign that will be celebrating its “Emerald year” in full. In case you don’t what “Emerald year” means, like me, it means that the sign s catching a gazillion lucky breaks. Specifically, it means that, when Jupiter the planet of abundance, expansion, and good fortune is smiling upon your sign. This year, 2021, the sign that lucked out is Aquarius. It means that Aquarians will find their true north which in astrology speak means true love. It also says that Aquarians are most capable of all signs of living in the future as they get it, can adapt to technology and all inevitable changes. So happy new year a Aquarius People.

 

According to Poetry experts, the most famous poem of the Romanticism movement was “Daffodils” by William Wordsworth. Just in case somebody asks you.

 

The Question:

Name three songs by Sam Cook. Remember Sam Cook? Just to make this generationally fair, name three songs by Styx.

 

The Headlines:

--Markets Look To Take Bigger Step Backwards To End The Week.; Stimulus Possibilities Becoming More Vague.

--FDA Says Ok To Pfizer’s’ Covid Vaccine.

--Senate Passes One Week Additional Funding To Avoid Midnight Shutdown.

--Cuomo To Shut Down Indoor Diginin In YC.

--Brexit Sems To Be On Way To No Deal; Pound Could Crash.

 

I think America was pretty good up until the time when people paid to get politicians elected came up with the idea of tagging peeps liberal or conservative. Dividing people simply to attain power over people is pretty selfish for a class of society called public servants. Humans are more than singular tags, and it isn’t even close.

 

A crashing Pound doesn’t sound like a good idea.

 

Speaking of crashing, my NE Pats looked quite dismal last night.

 

I always thought it would nice to be a Harbormaster when I grew up.

 

Is there person lower than one who lives by tearing other people down? Do some people think that by making others appear smaller, they look bigger? I think it is just the opposite. Humans can be funny.

 

Hey! Did I just tear down people who tear down others? Life is tough.

 

Politics provides a lot of fodder for Tids. But is it healthy for humans be inundated with politic speak all of the time?

 

The Answer:

Sam Cook is best known to me for “You Send Me”. But he also had a big hit with “Chain Gang”, and was also good with “A Change is Gonna Come”, “Bring it on Home”, “(What a) Wondaful World”, Nothing can Change This”, “Another Saturday Night” and “Summertime”. For Styx I personally liked “Come Sail Away”. His top hit according to people who know is “The Grand Illusion. The rest are “Renegade”, “Rock the Paradise”, “Blue Collar Man”, “Too Much Time on My Hands”, “Boat on the River” “Lady” and Heavy Metal Poisoning”. Suite Madam Blue is another that some really think is epic.
