Little things, found



Today's Tids Issue 4,626
The Countdown:

Happy Passover. It is a wonderful, important first of eight days for the Jewish people. It is one we should reflect upon, too. It will be different this year for families who always in the past got together Seder meals. But though fewer the thoughts of all not that will be more vivid, more meaningful. They will dwell perhaps more urgently on the deep meaning, of the word Passover, as we should too. “The Israelites feeling Egypt and slavery, huddled in their homes, afraid.” 

When the governor says that social groups must be limited to five, I’m wondering how you choose which wife or husband to leave home when 3 couples want to get together? Or do couples just cultivate single person friendships. It’s a new world.

Easter egg puns crack me up.

There is this potential misconception, at least from what my mind is seeing, that there is a need to wait for some magical stock market “bottom”. Really? There are plenty of very good companies right at this very second, which are cheap, and good buys for the long term.

A dachshund standing on a sundial would be described as short on time.

App-tivity is replacing activity. Yes, digital pastime inventers are flooding phones and tablets and computers with apps designed to consume time. If you are app apt, check it out.

The Question:
Why can you only eat one Easter egg on an empty stomach? Bonus:

I believe one of the big new pastimes right now is cleaning out basements, attics, dresser drawers, old trunks and closets. And I’m guessing that many a fond little memory pops up among the stuff saved for one reason or another. Little things that bring a warm smile or a pleasant memory. So, if you see somebody sitting in a dark basement or looking off into space by a dresser, don’t interrupt. They maybe reliving a precious moment. Newly found.

Rediscovering walking in the sunshine isn’t such a bad sacrifice.

Not only did Tom Brady divorce the NE Pats fans, he divorced all of New England too. His new Florida mansion was bought from a Ya, Ya Ya…(WYKWIM)… that former shortstop of theirs. How insulting! Arrrrrgh!

But, if you want real isolation, you might consider a home like Tom’s – all 30, 000 square feet of it. Heeellllo. Is anybody here? He could use 20,000 of it to manufacture much needed ventilators. And he wouldn’t hear a sound.

The young men interested in the priesthood were preordained.

My personal theory of writing is to strive always to have readers dancing in their hearts.

Btw, I would advise that for anybody who writes, including those who write entirely factual engendering hand books.

A mother was complaining about how stupid her 22-year-old son was. She said she thinks it started when he was ten yo. and giving her some lip.  And I shouted “Stop being so smart.” “He did!” She said, now he thinks God’s name is Howard.

Supermarkets have special eggs-its for last minute Easter shopping.

The Answer:
The answer is simple. Once you eat one Easter egg, your stomach isn’t empty any more.

This is the Wednesday, when Christ prayed in the garden with his apostles. It’s time to get serious.
