Uh-Oh

Today's Tids Issue 4,813

No "V". Alas:

 

Who knows what will happen now with no gridlock safety net? Maybe Joe Manchin will switch to Repub. Maybe the Senator from West Virginia will now be the most powerful politician in the world.  

 

Scientists have found a way to keep middle-aged female mice from going through menopause. Now they’re working on a way to keep middle-aged male mice from buying expensive sports cars.

 

NYC air traffic controllers heard a threat loud and clear that said, “We are flying a plane into the Capitol on Wednesday. Soleimani will be avenged." It is probably not credible, but terror is just that, instilling fear in normally peace-loving people. Nothing is out of the realm of possibility these days. That is the legacy of 911.

 

For some reason this year, cold doesn’t feel nearly as cold. Maybe I’ve become a warmer me.

 

The Question:

1 Million voters answered the question, “What are the most delicious foods in the world?”

I can’t believe that the USA is filled with cars in miles long lines waiting to make an appointment to get a vaccination. Nah, media just isolates selective reported scenes for drama. Making people panic is not helpful.

 

Let’s hope that Congress people vote their conscience instead of the party. It appears the two Georgia Senator’s elect will run right to the left end of the Dem party. So let’s pray for Moderate democrats.

 

That lapping sound you hear squishing through DC are Dems licking their lips at the possibility of changing America forever.

I’m thinking of running for president. Do you think what I write In Tids would hurt me?

 

The Answer:

#1 is Pizza! Next is Crispy Fried Chicken followed by Ice Cream, Pasta (But with what sauce?), French Fries, Garlic Bread, Chocolate, Cheeseburger, Barbecue, Cheese, Chocolate Chip Cookies, Chocolate Brownies, Grilled Meat, Taco, Steak, Bread, Lasagna, Fruit, Nachos, Grilled Cheese Sandwich, Fried Rice, Pancakes, Potatoes, Ice Cream Sundae and at #25, Quesadilla. OK, I’ll go on. Next is Croissants (A big favorite here,), Strawberries, Sweet Corn, Waffles, Noodles, Mac n’ Cheese, Choc Cake, Spaghetti, Watermelon, Doughnut, Popcorn, Ice Cream Cake, Grapes, French Toast, Vanilla Ice Cream, Burrito, Cinnamon Roll, Mozzarella, Apple, Meatballs, Cheesecake, Chips and Salsa and at #50, Bacon. Bacon is only at # 50. The bottom five are #146 Cantaloupe, Baked Cinnamon Apples, Mushrooms, Blueberry Pancakes and at #150, White Chocolate. Fried Rice and Sweet Corn would definitely be moved towards the top of my list. In between 50 and 150 there are lots of specific fruits. and vegetables, plus Eggs, Pulled Pork, Pretzels, Pickles and Prime Rib. The top seafood is Shrimp at #88 and the only fish at #127 is Salmon.

 

Well, it appears we are officially beginning now a new epoch for sure. I’m not going to repeat any of the rumored social media conspiracy theory horror tales of what may come from an all Dem government. What is pretty much acknowledged is that we can expect to be smack in the center The American Era of Incomprehensible Weirdness. But I hear rumblings of stuff I am not going to like much at all, that could permeate throughout our society if the give-anything-for-nothing-in return concept of buying votes becomes pervasive. If citizen are allowed to break laws and commitments; if institutions that built our enviable foundations are allowed crumble. America the Third World Country.
