Today's Tids Issue 5,708
Does forever end:
Yesterday I felt this need to scale the mountain of truth and find the Guru of Human sensibility. There he was sitting there august, in his aura of infinite wisdom. He said: “If you identify a UFO as a UFO, then it becomes an FO. Unless it's landed Then it simply becomes an O.
Life’s mysteries are difficult to grasp form time to time.
So, onward. It looks like Joe B has kicked the TikTok can down the road for Donald T. This is the prerogative of Presidents – let your successor incur the wrath of TikTokers. Makes good sense for legacies.
Remember one thing as you go through life – any tax or cost imposed on big business by government is a tax on you. Its just a slight of ma hand trick of Politicians at all levels of society. So, always keep your eye on the little ball intis shell game.

Have you noticed that your local radio TV, Radio or other media outlets are using tag lines similar to. “All our news is fact based.” Odd evolution for media I'd say.
Well, the TidsPicker went mediocre with the first round of playoff picks, 4-2/ I really thought the Chargers were rolling. And Washington may just be as good as their record shows. This kid Jayden Daniels can play. And this Saturday KC and Detroit enter the fray. KC is against Houston, and I see a Chief’s win there. Mahomes is rested, Houston surprised me last week. But KC is better. Detroit gets back in it against the upset minded Washington Commanders. (Skins was much easier to type for a spelling handicapped writer). Washington is flowing but I just can't move away from Detroit. It will be a game I want to watch. The Sunday games look like Wars to me. These battles between Baltimore and Buffalo and LA Rams and Philly will be fierce. LA has come a long way and are playing great. Philly has looked like a Big Boy team lately. A tossup, but I'll take the Eagles. Over in the AFC we have the Josh Alan will-to-win against Ja Lamar Jackson skill-to-win. I'm picking Baltimore even in the unfriendly Buffalo arena.
The President just pardoned 2500 “Non-violent” drug offenders. How about the Non-violent DUIs?
Rocket Launch Speak, Department:
After teh Space X rocket exploded authorities said, “Starship experienced a rapid unscheduled disassembly during its ascent burn”. I just had to smile.
The rocket gulps down 40,000 pounds of propellant a second as it pulls away from the launch pad. That doesn't sound terribly efficient.
I sense that there will be many heartbreaks when the Hamas hostages are returned. It just doesn't feel right. Im feeling quite sad for some reason.
Let's see, On Monday we have Martin Luthor King Day, the Trump Inauguration and festivities, and the College Football National Championship Game between Ohio State and Notre Dame. Will the main game audience be democrats and Hollywood?
By the way, Trump said this morning to something to the effect that he is going to make Hollywood great against. His special envoys to Hollywood will be Mel Gibson, Jon Voight and Sylvester Stallone. That should male Meryl Streep happy.
