Hear no evil; see no evil; speak no evil.




Today's Tids Issue 3,831
For Silence As the Best Policy:

I’m concerned about reports giving me this sense of blundering, unthoughtful, unkind execution of government duties like with ICE or the Airport security purveyors. Now what I really don’t know is how accurate the stories are from media sources that basically seem willing to do anything to make the new Admin look blundering, dishonest and inhuman.

The Tids may look a little thin at times because the crunch from a potato chip tends to block out TV sound and whole segments of the news.

Last night, Chris Matthews compared Ivanka and Jerrod Kushner to Sadaam Hussein’s sons. Doctors are saying that the tingle up his leg has traveled further up and finally frozen his brain.

Anti Nathan’s Hot Dogs letters are arriving at Tids headquarters, just I case you are interested. I’d write one myself, but try to be impartial.

Congress passed and Trump will sign a law revision that wipes out FCC’s privacy protections allowing Internet companies to sell personal information and internet history to marketers. I think it is a criminal act.

The Question:
Name five popular foods with names of Cities in their description.

The Headlines:
--Wall Street Continues Flat Through Mid-Morning; Oil Prices Rising Again.
--Shots Fired Near White House As Driver Tries To Run Down D=capital Police.
--UK PM Teresa May Signs Brexit Divorce Papers.
--Putin And Iran’s Rhoumani Looking Like Love Birds.
--Antiabortionists Wh Filmed Palnned parenthood Ae Subject To Felony Charges IOnThe basis Of Health Privacy Laws..
--Hillary Goes Overboard Defending Newsperson Ryan And Congressperson Waters.
--
Anti Trump Repubs and conservative leaning indies should remember that the one of the main reasons he was voted in by relatively intelligent Repubs was to keep Hillary from appointing Supreme Court Justices. The big antis (media and Dems) can play the impeachment game (Which I believe makes look like an irrational third world country) but with four years remaining, a Repub Prez would still be in charge for nominating Justices regardless of opposition antics. Remember an Impeachment does not call for a new election but installs VP Mike Pence in the Oval office. If the Dems persist in their current insanity and successfully impeach Pence, they are looking at a secession in order of Paul Ryan, Orrin Hatch, Rex Tillerson, Steven Munchen, James Mattis, Jeff Sessions. I think that the supreme Court Future is in good hands.

Why is there a “D” in Fridge but not in refrigerator?

The good news is that the funding for the wall is moving towards the back burner.

One of the problems eternal in politics is that the leadership doesn’t consider evolutionary adjustments. With 0-Man it was alternative energy all the way whether or not it was proven as sensible. With Trumps throwback to coal your heart feels good for West Virginians, but it is a program lacking in an understanding for the future.

Either Bugles snacks are getting smaller, or my fingers are getting fatter. “I’ll get you my pretty, and your little dog too…eee eee eee eee eee…”

In signing the Keystone Pipeline authorization, the Prez put in a clause requiring American made steel pipe. I’m not sure the USA is as powerful in the pipe business as it was. Do you get the best product at the lowest cost if you close down possible bidding opportunities? It’s a little like MLB eliminating choice by authorizing Nathan’s hot dogs for all baseball fans. Or the concept for the new Health care being based on opening competing among more companies across state lines. Aren’t they talking to each other. Or, is Trump just talking to himself.

The mega investment firm BlackRock has $5.1 Trillion in assets. Yikes, how can they go wrong? But, they say they are losing customers because their human stock pickers can’t beat the market with traditional bets on large US stocks. The company is cutting humans and offering customers services (formerly only available to large institutional investors) lower cost stock management which relies solely on data and computer systems to make predictions. Signs of the times?

Don’t you think that the introduction of legal pot coinciding with the replacement of humans with computers and robots portends a new future for the American worker? Humans will basically be paid an override from robotic production, and sent home to smoke pot and hallucinate on what a great job they are doing.

Actually, robots could save a lot of jobs for skilled workers who will be needed to repair robots. Will Dems put robots into a new national health program?

Speaking of hallucinating – there is no way that the US Coal and steel industries will ever approach their former heydays.

The Answer:
There are plenty begging with one I thought of first – Philadelphia Cream Cheese. Then we have the Fig Newton (Newton, Mass), Boston Cream Pie, Boston Baked beans, Chicago Pizza, New York Cheese Cake, Monteray (Cal) Jack Cheese, Charleston Chew, Vedalia (Ga) Onion, Buffalo Wings, Kansas City Steak, Smithfield (Va) Ham, There are also plenty of State named foods like Texas Toast and Baked Alaska. By the way, did you know that beef Wellington was named after Wellington New Zealand.

Hope your day is spectacular!
