Sittin’ on a curb, watchin’ the flags march by.



Today's Tids Issue 3,341
Opening Stuff:

I think today I’ll salute a soldier or two, and maybe then a marine, a sailor in blue. US military for the ages hearts so true, fighting for us and always coming through. From farmers shooting behind fences, to drone operators with higher senses; All with the hope for me and you. They built a country all anew; And Oh how that beautiful concept grew; For Black and White, Christian and Jew, (Well, maybe nt the Sioux), From City Buildings to icy igloo. All Because of soldiers and what they do, For all in uniform, today the trumpets Blew!!

It was just like any other glamour event, but it just wasn’t Letterman. Watching the celebs take a bow at the last show of comedian Dave would lead you to believe that the show was all about celebrity. Why Letterman, in the early days didn’t even like celebrities. He built his show upon the quirkiness of many who were barely or never mentioned as part of the big final celebration – Chris Elliott, Calvert DeForest as Larry “Bud” Melman, Bill Wendell, Adam Resnick, Kathleen Ankers, Biff Henderson, Robert Morton, Hal Gurnee, Peter Fatovich, La Mahar, Barry Stortz and Barbara Gaines and Jude Brennan…or any Mom who wandered on stage to visit her son the stage hand, or just a guy or gal walking down the street. Letterman was best known for Quirkiness, not tuxedos.

The Question:
The American fitness Index has just listed the 5 most fit and least fit cities. Name them. (Hint: It looks like typical Government promotional BS to me, so don’t get overly frustrated trying to guess, or deflate by the answers.).

The Headlines:
--DC Murderer Of Family Of Four Captured.
--Housing, Health Care Fueling Inflation Rise; China Stocks Hit Seven Year High.
--Clinton Pal Blumenthal Blocked From State department By Obama Revealed By Emails As Integral Fellow In Development Of Benghazi Excuse Scam.

--The Jebster Puts Climate Change in Its Proper perspective; Says Proponents Of The Theory Are Often Too Arrogant To Be Listenable.

Repeating a lie does not a truth make.

I’m seeing Hillary getting out ahead of her bad stuff now, early in the campaign. The Clinton machine has had lots of practice at this and knows well that the American psyche always tires of repeated news, even of the most heinous deeds. Well, maybe not air in footballs.

The headline read, “Pleas made – Let the undocumented Drive”. Translation: “Reward Lawlessness.” Who says crime doesn’t pay. It plays big for some major players in the financial arena, until they get caught. Then they complain that everybody does it, that you “have to cheat” in this world. (See Citi-Corp, JP Morgan, RBS, Barclays accused.) Who says? They’re all the same. The poor sneaking into the USA illegally; the super successful defrauding fellow citizens. And, the same old excuses will always be made by enablers. The only difference is that the rich pay more for their lawyer generated alibis.

In today’s hackable internet world the word secret may be the next to become obsolete.

If America needs anything in this seemingly new era of anything goes, it’s a President who only stands for the truth, and is willing to stand there and raise the bar for all citizens, no matter the pain.

Do you think that all of those great men and women, girls and boys who have worn the uniform would have fought so valiantly for a lie?

This entire Climate Change conversation is a form of extortion and intimidation.

Did you see here the self-proclaimed “Hottest sexual dating, hookup community (64 Million Members), Adult Friend Finder, has been hacked and the inner secrets of secret members are being spread across the internet. “Hi Mom, what does, “Lunkhead sleeping and I need a threesome,” mean?”

Sidney Blumenthal made me do it.

Reading Between the Lines Movie Reviews:
--Tomorrowland will be more of a people favorite than a critical achievement. Despite stunning visuals, the film limps a long upon an often confusing story line. (Frankly, I found it difficult to understand the concept of the plot). Former deflated Boy genius (Clooney) and brainy, bright eyed full of life, curiosity and enthusiasm girl teen (Britt Robertson) take off on a dangerous mission to find Tomorrowland where they will hopefully change the world and surely themselves. The wanderings however get confusing. Stifle your pragmatism and let it flow.
--Another redo is a remake of Poltergeist and it doesn’t have what the original gave to horror film fans. Remember that this is about a nice normal family who’s house is haunted by evil forces. The attacks escalate and finally their daughter is held captive. They must rally together to rescue her before she disappears forever.
The Answer:
The five least fit Cities are #5 Louisville, the home of my beloved KFC. Yum! Next is San Antonio followed by Oklahoma City, Memphis and at #1 “Least Fit” is the city known as the “Rat” City for snitching on air deflated footballs – Indianapolis. The top fit city list looks a little bogus to me with the top 3 of the top 5  cities all California _ Sacramento (%), San Fran (4), San Diego (3). The top two are Minneapolis/St. Paul and #1 are the overpaid underperforming people of Washington DC who must all be on the mandatory Michelle Obama Adult Lunch Program. Hey, wait a minute, That’s the home of the American Fitness Index! I wonder.

The US cities are ramping up the number of parks for fitness opportunities mainly because so many businesses have left the cities for foreign countries.
