Today's Tids Issue 3,474
Opening Stuff:
I’m
happy to be telling you that I’m not typing this thing
in a tent outside Target!
If
Thanksgiving is solely a holiday for the USA, why is their
no significant news from around the rest of the world? Huh? Could it be that
when Publicists get a day off, there is no new information written for
journalists?
Gravy
popsicles! I like it.
There
are times when Rimski-Korsakov’s Scheherazade is about as soothing
a piece of music thet you can find.
The
Question:
Name 3 Gail Sheehy Books Bonus: What is the more common name for Bill Nye?
The
Headlines:
--World Economic Data Roll-Out Will Be Gut Check
For Wall Street Denizens Next Week; Could Big Either Way
--FBI Tracking At least 48 High Risk Terror Suspects.
--Retailers Say Black Firday Off to Great Start.
--Obama Tying Legacy To Weathermen Instead Of
Military Strategists.
--Wasserman’s DNC Deep In Debt; RNC Treasury Flourishing.
--Erdogan Rhetoric More like To Inflame Moscow
Than Tame Putin.
--Man Arrested After Jumping White House Fence.
What’s
worse? Waiting up to stand in line for a Black Friday
deal? Or rubbing the sandman out of your eyes after sleeping off a gigantic
meal while writing the Tids?
I
was somewhat dismayed when I read recently that the annual
labor day Jerry Lewis Show that raised millions for humans with MS had been
lopped. Then yesterday I realized what I had long suspected – Dogs have
overtaken humans as the most popular fellow earth mate, and we should do everything
possible to care for them. Frankly, I’m finding that domestic bunny rabbits are
pretty darn cool.
In
a small town in RI, colonial home of several well known
Revolutionary War heroes, there was a big movement to gathe together Indigenous
People’s day to celebrate instead of T-Day. Yet, it was the first meeting between
Pilgrims and notices that makes Thanksgiving so meaningful. And I offer no hand
to history revisionists.
Reading
Between the Lines Movie Reviews;
--Creed is the latest in the Rocky series and may
be one of the best. It follows the boxing career of an up and comer which just
happens to be Apollo Creed’s son, and who’s handler and coach is Rocky himself.
It has the same uops and downs and uplifting fiish.
--On the Other hand Viktor Frankenstein is not worth
a smidge of your time. You know the story and this is too much of that old
story. The trailer looks awful.
--The Good dinosaur is not so hot as compared to other
films like it, but kids will enjoy it anyhow. It asks the question, what if the
asteroid missed the earth and Dinosaurs survived?
Not
only do I never shop on Black Friday, I barely shop
the other 364 days of the year. Does that mean I’m a communist?
The
Answer:
Sheehy is a pretty prolific writer known earlier
for Biographic sketches of leading personalities like Margaret Thatcher,
Hillary Clinton, Newt Gingrich and George W., but is best known for Passages:
Predictable Crises of Adult Life. Other books are, The Silent Passage, Sex and
the Seasoned Woman and New Passages: Mapping Your Life Across Time. Bonus:
You all know it’s “Bill Nye the Science Guy”.
I
could have called today’s morning mess, “From Giblets
to Tidlets.
Happy
relaxation, E-v-e-r-y-b-o-d-y!!
