S Q U E E Z E PLAY.
The day got shorter real fast so the Tids will be breathlessly short. Most of you are saying, Thank Gid.
Iran likes a lot the end of the blockade and the world loves the opening of Hormuz. And Wall Street is ecstatic. Today. Now, from what I read, we are beginning 60 days of intense negotiation which at the end we will find out what the real deal will be and what it means.
It must be tough today out there on windy Long Island as the US Open starts at Shinnecock. The winds are howling here and that is not good for scoring low on an already tough course. Favorite Scottie S struggled early. So, who is i the dark horse who will surprise us this year? I go Aaron Rai.
A friend of mine figured the golf course designer had a warped sense of humor -- he put the fairways in the middle! Slice!

Voting for party over the quality of the person will lead us to a nation of leaders with no character. (See Maine)
Time may be a great healer but it's also a lousy beautician.
Iran may have got pommeled in the war, but they haven’t lost their hate, ref regardless of agreements. That's the real problem/
In the collateral damages department, the boom in AI is raising chip costs. So be prepared to see your digital equipment go up too. Old ships were just fine with me.
Jake Knapp a relative unknown on the PGA Tour was having a helluva year until a miner injury had him missing several big tournaments. It's nice to see him back this week at Shinnecock. Ill root for him.
One thing for sure this week, I’m going to learn how to spell S-h-i-n-n-e-c-o-c-k.
Somebody asked me why European cities are so magnificently restored, with great old architecture still awesome and cherished by all. In the US great antique architecture isn’t so sacred. I think one reason is that in Europe countries almost all citizens are of the same heritage, culture and ethnicity, That the architecture of the past is part of who they are. US is the melting pot of many ethnicities and cultures. Colonial America for instance doesn't have the same meaning for all.
The Answer:
Everybody remembers Sally Ride, right? Bonus: Napolean was defeated at Waterloo in Belgium, by the Duke of Wellington. He was aided by the Prussians under the command of Marshall Blucher. 40-50,000 lives were lost in this very bloody battle.
See you all tomorrow. Will Bobby Flay win again?
