Today's Tids Issue 4,920

Feuding Spell-Checks:

 

Someday by God I will understand a little about cryptocurrency, and I will feel that I have risen above my inadequacies. It will be a halleluiah Day!

 

Maybe I was right yesterday suggesting that successful cyberattacks are the result of continuous random probing of the underbelly of US institutions, infrastructure and industry. Humans have worried about the sun falling out of the sky plummeting us into darkness forever, but now it’s this insidious web of digitality that would bring the eternal night.

 

If I was a government, I would realize that of all things, protection from criminals petty and felonious, international governmental and, today, cyber is what we were hired to do for our citizens.

 

Elon Musk: They don’t ban hate speech; they ban speech they hate.”

 

The Question:

Name 10 true story movies about regular people that turned them into famous respected Americans.

 

The Headlines:

Markets Open Weaker Over Doubts About China-Russia-US Ties; Markets Struggling To Turn Around At Midday; Biden Plans To Amend Ban That Targets Industries That Do Business With China Initiates Concerns; Investors Awaiting May Jobs Creation Report.

--Netty Rivals Agree To Form Coalition That Would Oust Long Time Israel Leader; Where Would US Stand In New Regime?; Netanyahu Fighting Back.

--Queen Eliz and Joe B To Get together.

--Trainer Bob Baffert Banned From Kentucky Derby For Two Years After Testing Reveals Second Illegal Dosing Of Medina Spirit.

 

Joe B ranted against Dem Senators Manchin and Sinema yesterday as voting “more with my Republican friends”. AP did a fact check and found that is absolutely not true: “And they haven't done so in Biden's presidency. So far, they’ve aligned with Biden 100% of the time.” Remember what we wrote yesterday about Dems being adept at seeding misinformation within the minds of voters. I guess that’s what Bully Pulpits can do, especially if the intrepid journalists go along with it.

 

You may have noticed from the above that there are 80 issues until Tids hits 5,000. That’s about 16 weeks which brings us to about September 16. I say about because I may misnumber along the way. maybe I should have big give-away contest for a cheap cabin in the mountains, or something.

 

This is one of these mornings when I just hope the rain holds off for about five hours. Its only because I think I’m on a hot streak in golf. And if you are a golfer, you know what that means – It will be the worst round of your recent golfing life because you think it’s become automatic.

 

A local town wants to sue one of its citizens because she has made so many requests under the open information laws for information about the town’s CRT curriculum. Even The ACLU is on the side of the woman seeking information as a private s citizen. You can’t have School boards hiding what they are teaching our children.

 

Hard to comprehend Headline of the Day: “7-year-old boy from Busher Falls NY accused of aggressively assaulting and raping a 9-year-old girl.” I just don’t remember a world like we have now.

 

Here's an official definition of Cryptocurrency: A cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual currency that is secured by cryptography, which makes it nearly impossible to counterfeit or double-spend. Many cryptocurrencies are decentralized networks based on blockchain technology—a distributed ledger enforced by a disparate network of computers. A defining feature of cryptocurrencies is that they are generally not issued by any central authority, rendering them theoretically immune to government interference or manipulation.

 

Got it? Esay-Peasy.

 

Just in case your mind has been blurred by misinformation, the USA has a great immigration system that has worked seamlessly over hundreds of years.

 

As a long time Celtics fan it was big news yesterday when one of my favorite players and Celtic execs, Danny Ainge, decided to retire. Good guy, scrappy aggressive player. But I like the selection of Bard Stevens to replace Danny as the new Celtic President of Basketball Operations. The big controversy already is this notion that have an opportunity to promote assistant coach Kara Lawson to be and thus become first ever NBA female Head. I suspect she would not like to be named head coach just for the purpose of being anther female first in the current trendy new American pastime – picking people for identity over necessarily skill sets. The fact is she was great WNBA player, and had been hired as head coach for Duke Women’s basketball; and according to Celtic insider Brian Scalabrine, she can straight coach basketball and commanded respect from all the players the first day she walked upon the practice court. Her biggest negative is game coaching experience. So, we will see.

 

The $1.9 Trillion Covid give-away package comes to $14,329 per taxpayer, but the folks only got $1400.

 

The Answer:

Number one is Erin Brockovich Next is Daniel Ruettiger (Rudy), and then Frank Serpico, Hermann Boone (Titans), Joe Pistone (Donny Brasco), Christopher McCandless (Into the Wild), Dr. Jeffery Wigand (The Insider), Paul Rusesabagina (Hotel Rwanda), Philomena Lee (Philomena) and #10. Chris Gardner (Pursuit of happiness). At 11 Joe Clark (Lean on me) followed by John Laroche (Adaptation), Katherine Johnson, Mary Jackson, Dorothy Vaughn (Hidden Figures), Augusto, Michaela, Lorenzo Odone (Lorenzo’s Oil), Michael Whiteacre (The Informant) and Alvin Straight (John Deere Lawnmower Rider).

 

I wish that August Rush was about a real person.

 

Today is National Moonshine Day! Get a jug and escape the misery of the Tids. I’m hoping it helps me understand Cryptocurrency.
