Today's Tids Issue 5710
Cheeks hurt form Tongue:
Well, we have a new President. On the surface I didn’t think his speech was inspiring. Lots of applause lines like the SOU, and many of the promises were good, but the delivery – Well, all I can say was sounding contemporary, droning.
I thought the Navy band and chorus did an amazing job with the always inspiring” Battle Hymn of the Republic”.
Why did the fox cross the road? Chickens are tasty.
I suspect that the busiest section of the US government in 2025 will be the Supreme Court which will be called upon by many lawsuits to rule the constitutionally Trump’s EOs. Just watch.
Bank of America Chief Brian Moynahan said from Davos this mornng: “"We are not a central bank-led economy. We're actually a private sector-led economy, of which the government supports, of which the central bank responds to, and they have to think of what stimulus they're going to respond to." The Fed attempt remain independent might be more complex now. Inflation may becoem an even larger d systemic concern with keen eyes looking at the China tariff's question. Regardless of all the hullaballoo yesterday, that is an issue that effects many of the other promises.
Happy Birthday, Jane Austin. If you need a little good old-fashioned romance in your life, she is always there. You can generally find the refections of her beating ehart in a nice English meadow somewhere.
The Question:
I just read a good list of 20 First Ladies ranked from “Most Esteemed” to “Least Favored”. Name the top five most Esteemed.

I liked Malania’s hat.
The rush to tariffs is slowing it seems. Maybe some intelligent financial person got to the Taxer-in-Chief.
Trump wore his "I’m a mean bastard" face yesterday. I think the country deserves something more uplifting.
I like the idea of making the Cartels public enemy number one.
I detest the drug business and am not in favor of the current liberalization of recreational drugs. Recreational? Give me a break, Addiction is a killer, and it starts sometimes in the most innocent of circumstances. Wake up, enablers.
Changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico is megalomania exemplified. But then, Obama changed the name of a mountain named to honor an assassinated President McKinley.
Memo to the Real estate broker-in-Chief: The high cost of housing is one of the biggest problems in the US economy.
I thought Amy Klobuchar did an excellent job in her Inauguration Day speech of setting the stage for an American event.
Basically, Trump’s speech was telling all the presidents sitting there behind him that they did a crappy job. No wonder none of them looked particularly happy.
So why would Biden preemptively pardon his relatives saying they did nothing wrong? After all, yesterday Trump premised not to use the AG office against his enemies and grievances. Right?
I have felt more sarcastic in my life than I do today.
I just found an example for the definition of Gobbledygook. It was in a newspaper story about the city of Newport establishing a new government office -- Department of “Resiliency and Sustainability”. Say what!
If the world gets too whacky for you, you might find it comfortable listening to the music from The Lord of the Rings.
Kids today wonder why Little Red Riding Hood’s Grandma isn’t in a nice Assisted Living Community. The only wolves there are mindless old geezers.
Until the end of the game flurry it appeared that Ohio State could do anything they wanted with Notre Dame.

Of the other more recent First Ladies, Malania is 30, Pat Nixon 29, Nancy Reagan 27, Maimie Eisenhower 24, Hillary 23 and Michelle O 20.
I heard this song on the radio the other day, I liked it. I remember it from the past. Some things from the past get lost and are never found again. So maybe this will help keep a memory alive.
