Wishing upon a star.

Today's Tids Issue 4,074

For starlight:

Kim Jong Un told South Korean leaders he is committed to “De-Nuke” talks with the US. That sounds like good news to me…until politicians get involved. Maybe Jiminy Cricket is listening after all.

One of the great things about winter in the north is that you don’t lose balls playing golf.

I’ll tell you what sounds interesting – Stephen Hawking says he knows what happened before the Big Bang. That could be particularly interesting if you believe in the big bang. Just to clear up the mystery about something that has no end or beginning, he says that “the boundary condition of the universe… is that it has no boundary.” Duh. To make that clearer, consider that in other words he’s saying there is no time before time began as time was always there. I don’t really think he knows, but he expresses himself well.

Or as Emma Watson says, “Times Up”.

I never paid much attention to politics until I grew old and had nothing better to do. Politics: Tiddlywinks for the idle.

There’s a lot of things that could be solved in Washington if we didn’t have elections.

Did you know that Raymond Burr had a lumberjack brother named Tim?

The Question:

There is anew telescope that is better than the Hubble. It’s the Webb and scientists expect it to uncover many secrets of the universe. Name five.

So if someone steals my identity, does that mean they also get all of my afflictions.

Michelle Malkin suggests that if schools were as fortified and secured as celebrity’s homes, there would be less chance of repeated massacres. Why don’t celebrities think of that instead of jumping immediately on the anti-gun bandwagon.

Why is Sean pronounced Shawn instead of seen, but Dean is pronounced Deen instead of Dawn. Did you ever wonder that?

BTW, I missed last week’s movie reviews, and frankly I was prepared to get excited over The Red Sparrow. But Critics didn’t like it and audiences were lukewarm. It still sounds like a good thoughtful Russia spy flick to me.

Do you know how you can feel momentum for an agenda rising? I’m feeling a growing movement to get rid of prisons. Frankly, it is easy to believe just about anything these days. Keep everybody out of prison through electronic control monitored by an app. It’s all great until the power goes off.

I know I am the typo man, but Emma Watson may have become the queen of grammatical errors. At the Oscars her feminist tattoo on the forearm really stood out mainly because it said “Times Up” instead of the correct Time’s Up. And she went to Brown U. Maybe it’s Rhodeislandese.

Oscar ratings have collapsed like a dying star…like to a whopping all-time low of 26.4%! Maybe people really would prefer entertainment over one sided political horn tooting. Why can’t celebs be happy with their multi-millions instead of thinking their opinions count.

So I’m thinking, how can there be a big bang if there was nothing but time before hand.

Newspapers are in a fight for their lives, but it appears that in the ownership’s drive to save pennies they are destroying their delivery services. You can hire the best editors and win loads of Pulitzers, but if you can’t get the product into the hands of readers on time, then basically they have nothing but a room full of smart people behind word processors.

The only difference between Obama chaos and Trump chaos is that the media liked Obama.

Volvo’s XC40 was just named Europe’s “Car of the Year”. Maybe you’ll see little Volvos running around the US shortly. They will certainly be prominent in China.

The Answer:

The new Webb scope may find water on Exoplanets, allow scientists to see the formations of the first galaxies, look for signs of life on Europa and Enceladus, investigate Brown Dwarfs and observe the Red Spectrum. You knew that. Maybe it can find little space ships planet hopping.

Star Light, Star bright,

Is Stephen hawking’s theory, right?

Cause I think it’s slightly odd.

More than likely it was God.
