Today's Tids Issue 4.640
Still us:
In today’s masked society,
is all about the eyes. Light them up!
In case you think
we have lost everything normal, lobster off the boat is still fresh and delicious.
If true, this Kim death thing will be
the big Chess match of the decade. Yes, NK watchers are warning of a fa
possible internal fight that we want to avoid until the dust settles. The USA should
just sit back and let NK’ers fight it out for power. Apparently there maybe another
faction who will not allow Kim sister Kim jo Jong just walk in and take-his seat.
Smart NK observers believe that there is a group who may make a power play with
the alleged leadership vacuum, but NK transparency being what it is, there are not
a lot of details yet. Kim jo Jong is Switzerland educated and Kim’s closest
advisor, she is said to have a “firm control over key party functions.” She has
a lengthy official title, but basically it’s OP - “Overseeing Propaganda”. But
regime changes make people nervous, and the Chinese may be one of them. So,
doing nothing by us may be the right tactic as long as we keep an eye on China who
may try to do too much. Something to ponder other than death by a disease.
The big difference between Sunday
and the rest of the week’s days is that on Sunday you don’t get to take a trip
down to your mailbox. So, I spend an hour trying to think of something ese to do.
Today I rearranged my bathing suits.
From Frazz:
“The worst things in life aren’t as bad as the good things are good.”
Do you think that animals,
mammals, fish and avians drifting into or near villages and towns and cities
are thinking, I guess those two-legged creatures have giving up?
Virtue has
a veil; vice a mask. -Victor Hugo
The virtual, no frills NFL Draft
for Thursday, Friday and Saturday of last week was the highest rated draft show
ever – by a lot. It just shows you how hard up sports fans are for anything
approaching live action. BTW, the Draft raised over $100 Million to aid in the Covid
efforts.
I’m super friendly
with 25 letters of the alphabet. I just don’t know why.
The Question:
Throughout history, political
wives have overshadowed their husbands. Name the top ten of these dominant wives.

Is it a natural law
of the universe that things with your body and your stuff always go wrong on Friday
night and you have all weekend long to worry about them until plumbers, electricians
and doctors return on Monday? Well, that’s something to do – worrying.
In the military,
social distancing is called tactical diversion. Is there a military thesaurus?
Did you know that
Robert E. Lee received the “Most Likely to Secede” Award in High School?
Well, it appears that
in many tourist towns the world over where local citizens have been getting more
and more concerned over rampaging tourism stealing the soul of their home towns
and countries have gotten their wish. The tourists have stopped, but the new
visitor, is worse.
Have you ever heard
real animal lovers talking in a way that gives you an impression that they
firmly believe that humans are not necessary at all? I have.
In any normal society,
the vast majority of Americans would have been kind enough to sing “Happy 50Th
Birth day to Melania. But unfortunately, hatred trumps reasonable, typical good
nature.
Wearing a mask
wears you out. Faking is fatiguing. The most exhausting activity is pretending to
be what you know you aren’t. –Rick Warren
According to data from the CDC
National Health Center, total US deaths for the first three weeks of March are down
10% from the same period average of the previous 4 years. That average was 170,555
deaths. This year during the first 3-week period we saw only 153, 015 deaths. Although
the 4th week was tending lower too, I expect the rate of deaths from
CV since then has surely accelerated. It will be very interesting to see all of
April against past same-period averages.
Whiteboards
are remarkable.
I think everybody knows
why the WH is scaling back daily CV briefings. Less opportunities for slips of the
tongue.
Last week our governor of SSRI
was praising the efforts of a well-known artist for a poster celebrating the
work of peep in the medical devices. When I first saw it, I thought immediately
that it looked exactly like a poster for communist party workers. I have since
heard many RI’er comments almost all likening it to Mao standing before the
frightened kowtowing Chinese or Kim Jung il of NK fame. I guess the artist thought
the shutdown looked like communist regime takeover.
I can’t stop watching
those non-stick frying pan commercials.
Any man in duress
would be given comfort if he didn’t try to continually elicit it.
An overengineered
building is a complex complex complex.
Restaurants will have a hard time
coming back if they are forced to give up a quarter to half their seat capacity
for social distancing. Here’s a possible idea that could help on two fronts.
After the CV shutdown slows, even more mall retailers will be going out of business.
Mall owners will be aching for new renters. Use those larger spaces for restaurants
which would now be able to serve up to former capacity, while achieving sensible
spacing. As long as they serve entrees with 6-foot pizza paddles.
It was a job well done
by the chef who overcooked the meat.
The Answer:
Number one is Queen Victoria. For 63 year as she
ruled a vast empire that was dominant throughout the world. And, people liked
her. Her Husband was in a can) Next is Eva Peron followed by Betty Ford, Eleanor
Roosevelt, Hillary Clinton, Elizabeth Edwards, Michelle Obama, Barbara Bush,
Rosalyn Carter, Laura Bush, Carla Bruni and Arianna Huffington.
Children born
in a whorehouse are brothel sprouts.
You’d think
I’d be able to come up with a better ending than that.
“People seldom change.
Only their masks do. It is only our perception of them and the perception they
have o themselves that actually change. –Shannon L. Alder
I might say though,
that wearing mask today, your eyes still tell the same story.
I tried to mask
a so-so Tids by adding quotes from others.
