Today's Tids, Issue 5,331
Unwinding:
Where did our summer go?
I really don’t care
And certainly don’t know.
Cause I think weather’s fair
When covered with snow.
If the stock market appears confused, just remember that it is always like this until a week or so after Labor Day when the real investors come back from vacation. I don’t know if that makes you happy or not.
Steak tastes best when smothered in melted bleu cheese. Or Gorgonzolas. Or Stilton. Period.
Do you know what kind of people annoy me? People who tell me what foods I should like. Oops!
The Question:
What states have had the most earthquakes. In what states were the top ten most powerful?
The Headlines:
--Stocks Like PCE Data Indicating Cooling Inflation.
--Johannesburg Fire Kills Over Six Dozen in Abandoned Building Housing Homeless.
--Trump Pleads Not Guilty in Georgia Fraud Case.
--Proud Boys Organizer Goerge Biggs Gets 17 Years for role in Jan 6 Riot.
--Florida Cleaning up After Idalia.
I personally like Mitch McConnell quite a bit. But it seems like it is time for him to step down. It happens.
Nice, Department:
Oprah and Dwayne Johnson have set up a $10,000,000 fund to aid displaced Maui residents. Tnkofte world we would have if celebs and athletes and others tried to outdo each other with charitable contributions over materialism.
I always smile a bit when I come upon a rabbit who then scoots away only to stop and remain completely unmoving. And he’s thinking, I’m safe, that humanoid can't see me now. Humanoids are similar though opposite. We close our eyes to things we don’t like.
I expect that interest rates will remain steady into 2024, then they will take a new peak.
The Cloud may be the best thing since sliced bread and is probably making lots of dough for cl oud providers but when you are trying to write the tids in a reasonable amount of time, it's a damn nuisance. And Spell-Check gets confused in the cloud too. Yes, I do use Spell-Check.
I wouldn’t be upset at all if all movies were like the Jason Bourne series.
Have you noticed that signs say, “No Parking Anytime” Do they have to do that, so people don’t think, Ok, I’ll come back in four hours.
Aaah, Labor Day, the day I run out of propane gas while twenty hungry relatives wonder why they have been playing corn hole 3 hours.
It seems to me that all of the streamers want a piece of the big-time sports action, and you know that pro commissioners and university presidents would be more than happy to take their money. And who really pays... the consumers. Streaming is good so you can watch a football game on a 3x5 Inch phone?
My idea of a good gourmet recipe repertoire has Campbells Cream of Chicken soup as a base ingredient.
Last week was college football embarrassment week. There is no sensible rationale that can justify small colleges trod upon by the Bigs.
Actually, there are only a few good games this week too. ye are West Virginia against rival Penn State, Florida State at LSU and perhaps Duke at Clemson. Maybe the most intriguing game is Florida at Utah. Of course, I'll be all over Lehigh-Villanova to see if this will be a resurrection year for LU. The battle of the Carolinas will be good for the hearts of those two states and the same for Indiana fans rooting for their team to knock off big time neighbor Ohio State.
The Answer:
Number one by far is Alaska. Next is Cal followed by Hawaii. The Biggest earthquake was in1964 in Anchorage at 9.2. The first eight largest quakes were all in Alaska. #9 was New Madrid Missouri in 1812 at 7.9. That was tied with Fort Tejon Cal and Kalu on Isle of Hawaii. 17 of the top 25 quakes were in Alaska.
I guess nowadays you call this wind down Thursday getting ready for a relaxing Friday before taking off for the last summer weekend. Traveling on Labor Day... Great idea... if you want to be part of the weekend news on gridlock reports. Yeah great. There are 11 great non-promoted weekends in the summer months and people pick just three of the busiest to travel.
