Too Much Glitz

 

 

 


Today's Tids Issue 5,769 

Haggling: 

 

It's a cold and dreary day and my backets suck, so get ready for a grey Tids. 

 

One of the great things about March Madness games has always been the prospect of an emerging Cinderella taking down the big guy. But my guess is that will become rare as the transfer portal will be an avenue for the big money teams to snatch away a hidden gem at a smaller school. So, the NCAA’s could just become become a ritual of the same ole. same ole’. Sad. 

 

When good things get too popular, we eventually get glitzified mediocrity 

 

I don't like DEI, and I also don't like big Government using it to extort companies and institutions 

 

If Elon Musk's space company establishes a Mars colony, and you have a girlfriend on mars, but later break up because of long distance, she'd be your.... Space x. 

 

Ouch! I told you there was no hope for today. 

 

The Question: 

If you got in your car one day and headed for Mars at an average speed of 100 miles per hour, how long would it take you to get there ? 

 

The Headlines: 

--Markets Open Significantly Higher, Hoping to Rebound as Trump Seems to Soften Stance of Tariff Demands; Nvidia, Meta AMD Lead the Way; China’s Jack Ma Says his Ant Group has New AI Breakthrough.  

--Russia US Peace Talks Seem to be Going Well; Ukraine Generally in Agreement but Wary of Russia's Delaying Tactics; Russia Continues to Bomb Ukraine.  

--Greenland PM Calls Planned US Delegation Visit Aggressive and Showing Lack of Respect; Visit Inclusion of US NSA is Outrageous; Say Leaders.  

--Tiger Woods Affirms he is Dating Former Trump Daughter-in Law. 

 

Saturday's outrageous UConn woman’s smothering of Arkansas State 103-34 says that Wamans Basketball is a long way from achieving parity. There is fewer superstars overall, and there is. Also a transfer portal and big money there, too. 

 

If you really want to find water on Mars, just sent up a space ship load of Golfers! 

 

Do you know who I feel for today the people of Greenland, that's who. One day you're sitting comfortably in your quiet place and the next day a monster country from the south begins to swarm and it feels suffocating.  

 

Every time I see the words “Restart to install Microsoft updates, i feel my heart in my throat wondering what they are going to take from me next.  

 

God help us: The White House is seeking sponsorships for its Easter Egg Rolling tradition. This is after the White House lawn was looking like a used car lot to hawk Tesla's. Not that I matter much, but if this happens, and at the moment it certainly looks like it will, i will reject buying from any company that gets in volved. And that would, God help us, include Cheetos.  

 

Haggling is the word. Buyers for big retailers are working overtime to strike deals with suppliers can soften the effects of Tariffs.  

 

Netflix keeps on sneaking up monthly costs. How is Tariffs affecting them? 

 

Mars is the “Red” Planet, which makes it prefect for a Musk repub cocolonizations.  

 

The Answer: 

It would take 14, 583 s days or about 40 years. With today's technology you could get there in 7-1O months. That means  that the biggest part of the ship is for hauling freeze dried food for a round trip and six months stay. All that to live in a nuclear cold appearing landscape with no breathable air. Gravity on Mars is much stronger so the prospects of relaunching to return home is doubtful. Things work better in comic books.  

 

U2 was just named Fellows of the (prestigious) Ivors Academy. U2 is the first Irish inclusion in this British Centric society. There are two Americans, Bruce Springsteen and composer John Adams. The Bee Gees are in from Australia. So why not end today with U2. More enjoyable than a trip to Mars
