Today's Tids Issue 4,955

Every once in a while the World needs a good genius:

 

That’s it -- $250K to ride up and down in space for 5 0r 6 minutes? And, I interrupted the start time for Tids to watch that?

 

Albert Einstein was a genius and worthy of praise and study. His brother Frank was an absolute monster.

 

Around here, it has been an amazingly cool July which looks like it will continue for a while.

 

The Steelers and Cowboys open training camp tomorrow. the Bucs on the 24st, then the rest on the 27^th. It can’t come soon enough now that I’ve seen everything worth seeing on Netflix.

Sorry astronauts past, you are astronauts.

 

I just have real hard time dealing with the term Space Tourism. Thee just has to be something greater than that going on.

 

NCIS fans are already eagerly awaiting the return of the show on September 20, especially after the numbing season ending episode that had Gibb’s boat exploding. The big problem for the show may be that the series after a 19 year run on Tuesdays is switching to Monday night, putting it up against Monday Night football. And It will be the fade away season for Mark Harman as the irascible Gibbs who will be seen less on his way to leaving the show – which means the show will most likely fold with his departure.

 

Covid vaccine maker Moderna’s stock went up $8 and change yesterday as the Dow crashed down over 700. Moderna is up u ove $25 today right now! Moderna has been booming for a week or more now. Why! It made a successful name for itself with Covid, but it has a lot of cool critical remedies in the pipeline including treatments for infectious diseases, cancer, rare diseases and Cardiovascular ills. Supposedly it has some good things coming along for cancer treatment. In other words, Covid success proved to the world that Moderna could rise up and do it, and now pharma watchers are taking a closer more confident look at what else tis little engine that could can do with other critical key drugs and vaccines.

 

Sometimes I just forget to pay attention when playing golf. I you just can’t play the game when your mind is wandering.

 

The plane full of mask less, covid contracting Dem Senators running away from the Texas Voting law vote is becoming a bad sitcom in itself.

 

I think I used the word “Just” too many times today, just in case you are interested.

 

I have always warned about watching your stocks in middle July. This year I thought we were sliding through it nicely until yesterday when the bottom fell out. Have you noticed that every time the market flirts with the highwater marks somebody uses the Inflation excuse to bring it down?  It’s easy to predict types of WS Investor excuses. It's really hard to predict is just when they will use them.

 

The Answer:

One was also the first man to ride across apace in a rocket, Alan Sheppard and the other Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin.

 

Lately, I don’t hold my breath as much when the Market crashes, because the economy is chugging nicely, with room for growth.

 

Happy Birthday to Kim Carnes:
