The Micro World 


Today's Tids Issue 5,318 

Levity is good: 

 

 

If my personal spending habits ever became pervasive, we would have no economy. Aren’t you glad the USA isn’t just one person? 

 

Santa’s reindeer looked a bit disturbed as Santa spelled out V-e-n-i-s-o-n in Scrabble! Oops. 

 

The New England Patriots had a three-pronged Defense last nightpersistent edge rushers, alert “D” Backs and Linebackers. And... multiple Cardinals’ Offensive Penalties.  

 

Fed Head Powell will be cautionary tomorrow as he should be. Now he must weigh suppressing inflation against spurring recession, a delicate balance indeed. The key will be the emotional stability of investors in the coming months. The greatest mechanic in the world can’t save a car from reckless drivers. 

 

Before Pinocchio, Chimney Cricket had a part in “Twas the night before Christmas”. 

 

The Question: 

Santa didn’t notice the fire in the fireplace. What is his name now? Bonus: What do Santa’s helpers like to do best with their phones? Extra Bonus: What do dogs wear on Christmas morning? 

 

The Headlines: 

--Markets Awaken in Positive Territory; New CPI Increase Of 7.1% Over Previous November Less Than Expected. 

--FTX Founder and Boss Indicted In New York and The Bahamas; Sam Bankman-Fried Accuse by SEC of Securities Fraud and Conspiracy. 

--Popular Mississippi State Football Coach Mike Leach, Dies Suddenly from Heart Condition; Leach Was Considered A Pioneer in Passing Strategies. 

--Big Storm Attacking Midwest; Upper Northeast Expecting Plenty of Action Later This Week. 

 

Something pleasant happens when you laugh out loud in the morning and nobody is there to laugh with you, but your inner self. Well, we both laughed along together this morning and it felt great. It was over a dumb cartoon from the comic “Close to Home” showing a pic of a guy strewing seed along the road. The Caption was, “That's Johnny Appleseed’s unknown brother, Raymond Ragweed.” I know dumb. But it was fun this morning. And, frankly, I'm still laughing. 

 

Probably the big surprise on The Voice last night was how well the Country Boy Bryce rose to the occasion. He was still his classic laid back self, but he did it better than ever, On the other hand co-Balke teammate Brayden, the young laid back guy, just wasn't up to the task and shouldn't have been there in the first place. Poor Jusitn and/or Kim. Bodie can be a little surprising at times, but he is always super creative even if you don’t enjoy it. But his last song “Gratitude” was the clincher, I believe. Omar and M organ lived up to their entertainment standards. Morgan was a little bit screamy in the first one but did really well with “Girl Crush”. Omar couldn’t have picked a better song for his finale, and the show’s -- “Somebody to Love” Tonight they will pick a winner and that on this show always boils down to fan group strength. Bodie seems to have the biggest. And Bryce w has Country. Morgan could be the surprise. Omar should get a lot of votes, but it will probably be Bodie, Bryce and Murgan then Omar and BraydenBrayden last is the only sure thing though. or is it? The Voice is never over if the cowboy is still singing. 

 

Of course, the really good news is that you would have to wade through Voice comments for a while after tonight. 

 

I’m making a plea to my state’s all Dem quartette in congress to fight the high cost of diet cola. Maybe they’ll get Joe B’s ear, and we will get a subsidy. There’s always hope in a free spending society. 

 

Did you see where the Cambridge Dictionary redefined the words “Man” and “Woman”.  Now words can have any meaning we want it appears. Which is good for my grammatical misfortunes and typos. 

 

How would you like to be the Public Relations Director for the American Girl Company in today’s society? 

 

I was thinking of writing my entire Obituary in typos so people would really know who I was.  

 

You know there isn't much news out there when I continually receive “Breaking News” alerts about stuff I and others have commented on days and days ago 

 

There was a particularly intolerant, vitriolic member of Dedham Massachusetts’ Human Rights Commission who mocked Christians with every f—name in the book and God as their “Magic Skydaddy”. It was over a comment that a librarian made about not having a tree ceremony this year because it offended some people. Her name was Diane Loud. How great is that name for a professional aggravator. Oh, she stepped down. The town leadership said that they don’t condone that type of speech. 

 

There is just so much news to go around for all the outlets that now make a living through reporting and analyzing it. We live today in a micro world, where a boiling over pot in a kitchen can be a controversy for days. And it can be painful. 

 

I need some urgency in my life’s schedule so I can get the Tids out earlier. 

 

The Answer: 

If there is a fire in the fireplace, Santa would be Krisp Kringle. Bonus: Santa’s helpers love to snap “elfies” with their phones. Extra Bonus: On Christmas morn, dogs jump around in their Pawjamas 

 

Oh nooooooooooooooooooo! 

 

I knew, with this I’m banned for the rest of advent. 

 

I always smile at this one:
