Today's Tids Issue 5.649
Oooo-weee-oooo:
Tomorrow in many places, orange pumpkins will give way to golden brown Turkeys. Taht is if the turkeys can be found buried in reds and Greens and silver bells already all over retail. Actually, Christmas colors are quite appropriate as the credit cards turn from green to red.
Too often we... enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought. --John F. Kennedy
Holy Indian Summer, Batman! Can you still say Indian summer. It's a glorious day for sure, but I can remember Novembre days like this too. Even many a warm Thanksgiving Day. I think we get too wrapped up in weather.
My smart TV is asking me too many questions.
Any closet is a walk-in closet if you try hard enough.
The Question:
The Dodgers (Brooklyn and LA) won their 8th WS last night. What are the top World Series winning teams?
The Headlines:
--Markets way Down after Analyzing good Meta, Microsoft Earnings Report s but with Guidance that calls for Heavy Spending.
--LA Dodgers Take down the Pinstripes in 5; Bronx Team Looks inept in Fatak Fifth Inning
--NK Fires Banned Missile in Longest Flight Yet.
--Hamas Rejects 30-Day Cease Fure.
TidsPickens were decent last week but I thought it should have been better, Thanks a lot, Baltimore. 12-4 isn't bad and that gives us 82-42 for the YTD (66.1%). Tonight, we have the potentially great game ... back when it was first projected in August. Now Houston had lost a couple of key players, but the Jets have lost their soul. Is this a trap game? I think Houston is got enough to take it. Probably the most interesting game of the week is Green Bay and Detroit. The Pack are a bit of an enigma, and the Lions are playing as well as anybody and that includes KC, Gotta stick with Detroit. Chi and Arizona could be a good one. The Bears have become respectable. But I’ll take the Cards. (That is a hunch from the gut). Denver is not afraid of anybody, and they play everybody tough. But Baltimore is mad, and they will come back because of a talent edge. Dallas versus Atlanta is interesting mainly because they are both Mysteries. I'm saying Dallas finally comes through. The last game in the interstage section is between old rivals —Skins-Jints. I'm picking Washington in a very close game.
Of the rest, Miami is missing more than Tua and while Buffalo is winning, they aren’t exactly winning well But, I'll take them. New Orleans is weakened but Carolina is just plain weak. But will they wake up? Yes, another gut sensation. Cincy will take down Vegas Philadelphia will maul Jax. The Rams are rising, and the Seahawks are fading. Gotta stay with LAR. Are the Browns on a rampage after last week's surprise win? The Chargers have been somewhat steady. I'm a Browns fan but I go LAC. KC takes down TB. The magician just knows how to win. And Andy Reid is a great coach. A week ago, I would have said that Indy is an easy win for min. but now have to ask, has Minn and Darnold peaked? I tink they still have it and will beat the Colts., Now we have a mystery game -- the NE Pats and Titans, both bordering on dreadful. The Pats beat the Jets last week. But to me, it was a bit iffy, the O line looking ok only because Drake May knew how to run away from trouble. I don’t know. I really don't have a clue. The Pats are actually a little less dreadful than the Titans. Hold your breath, Pats fans.
Voting this year was an eerie experience, Maye Surreal is the better adjective.
The Markets are getting clobbered because Wall Street is thinking the Big AI players are investing too much money in the whiz bang technology of the future. Is there enough in AI to get the return necessary for stock growth.
Pepsi announced today they are closing 4 bottling Plants and laying off 400. Tye say sales are down. Duh. Nobody woudl pay their prices anymore. I've gotten used to Walmart's Diet Cola which is 1/3 if Pepsi and Coke.
Obviously, the championships in the New America are greenlights for looting. It used to be about pride of community but now it's about what can I take from hard working retailers. Tis really sad.
And that sadness goes for fan behavior too. Maybe gambling has something to do with anger in stadiums and arenas.
If somebody is talented or says something clever or contributes well to society, I don't care what party they are in.
I truly hate the anger in the country today. I try not to hate anything and certainty people, but I think hating anger is ok.
The Answer:
Number One is the Ya-Yas at 27. Next is the Cardinals at 11. With 9 are the Red Sox, and Athletics (Phil, Oakland and KC). Tied with the Dodgers at 8 are the Giants (SF and NY), With 5 wins we have Pirates and Reds, The Braves (Bost, Mil, At) have 4 as do the Tigers.
My Grandmother was the biggest Brooklyn Dodger fam ever. But nobody should be forgiven for stealing your birthright. She is probably still rolling over in her grave over that move to LA She was a no nonsense rolling over in a grave type of person.
Have a wonderful Thursday evening, E-v-e-r-y-b-o-d-y!!
