Seeking softness.

 


Today's Tids Issue 5,750. 

Beyond the masks:

 

Weve been talking about muddled minds on Wall Street. And today seems to indicate that while the new Admin is getting a headline a minute it is also creating what the investment community hates most – uncertainty.  

 

Three men were about to be executed by the firing squad. The first man was brought forward and before they could shoot him he yelled "avalanche"! The firing squad panicked and in the confusion, the man jumped over the wall and into freedom before the firing squad could regroup. The second man thought what the first man did was clever and when he was brought forward for his execution, he yelled "earthquake"! Again, the firing squad panicked, and the second man took advantage of it to jump over the wall and into freedom. The third man thought he saw the pattern: yell a disaster and jump over the wall. When he was finally brought forward, with a smirk on his face he yelled "fire"! 

 

Whoops. 

 

This may be the shortest Tids in a while. 

 

The truth is that Musk is not an altruistic kind of guy. 

 

The Question: 

Quick, name the seven planets in order form the sun out to the icy vastness. 

 

The Headlines: 

--Nasdaq Much Lower; Bitcoin Plummets; Consumer Confidence Falls Feb to its Buggest Drop in Four Years; Tesla Sales in Europe Drop 45%. 

--UK Beefs up Defense Spending; PM Kier Starmer Says Europe Sees Dangerous New Era, Says Russia Aggression Does not End in Ukraine. 

--US Congress In Midst of Difficult Budgeting Session; Razor Thin Vite Margins for Repubs Plus Inviting Presents Little Room To Meet Trump Tax Reduction Promises Versus Conservative Push to Lower Deficits.  

--Pope Remains Critical but Stable.  

 

If your eyes are still focused and keen, for the next 3 days you'll be able to see all the seven planets in the sky at once. The next time you see the planets simultaneously is 2040. 

 

My wife says if I don’t stop making puns about Russia, she’s going to hit me. If that’s the way it’s going to be, then Soviet. 

 

In case you are interested, I'm not cheerleading or denouncing the Trump effort. There's plenty of that. I’m just writing about what I see happening. 

 

Any dividend from the big Government agency hair cut should be used to lower the National Debt. Sending checks as dividend to the people is just plain inflationary.  

 

A new restaurant concept is generally adding stuff I don't want to things that were already great. Just cooking great old recipes very well just doesn't count any more. And you’d be surprised at how many restaurants on te star list don't cook old recipes well. 

 

When I want to slow down and feel softness of a gentle world I play piano music form Renee Michelle. Hey, but that's me. Everybody has their own way of finding the same things 

 

Speaking of trying to avoid exerting your own opinions on others, these edicts form the white house are in some cases designed to micromanage companies. I'm not buying that; I have always been a big believer in letting companies run their businesses their own way land let the consumer activity determine if they live or die or become a successful niche biz somewhere. 

 

While Docs gladly take the Hippocratic oath to uphold ethical standards, politician tend to gravitate to a hypocritic Norm to obscure ethics. 

 

If American switched from pounds to metric kilograms over night there would be mass confusion. 

 

Think about it. 

 

The Answer: 

The hot little guy is Mercury and the one in fleece and long underwear is Neptune. In between we have Venus, Earth, Mars Jupiter, Uranus and Saturn, Of course Pluto farther out was axed. 

 

I think this feels pleasant:
