It’s what clouds are for.

 

 

Today's Tids Issue 5,872 

Fundamentally: 

 

The greatest thing. 

Ive come to know, 

Is having eyes 

To see a smile. 

 

Have you noticed lately how when people are describing events or aspects of their lives they are often using the phrase, “since Covid”? 

 

I was thinking the other day that all the ups and downs, exclamations and heartbreaks of our lives are merely a b nanoblip in the magnitude of time, Humbling.

The Question: 

Stevie Nicks started a new tour in Brooklyn last week, It was good one they say, with plenty of memories and heartfelt feelings by Stevie for the past. Who were the original members of Fleetwood Mac,? 

 

The Headlines: 

--July Retail Sales Rose for Second Month, though Missing Analysts Target; Sales Up in Non-Store Retail Operations; Food and Drinking Establishments surprisingly lower in Normally Hottest Sales Month; Dow Opens Strong, Nas Not so Much; United Health Jumps as Warren Buffett and Berkshire Buy 5m Shares.

Do you get the feeling that it will eventually be called the Trump Olympics?  

 

Guessing is fun, but facts are better. 

 

The cost of staying one night in a hotel are loony. I mean, it’s a room regardless of amenities. I mean, you’re in a room and you  sleep in it and then you leave 

 

A new report says peoepl are drinking less alcohol which indicates a big move towards healthy living. But at $16 and up for a fancy cocktail,, I’d be cutting back too.  

 

You may have missed it yesterday, buy Gavin Newson in his outbursts against Trump and Repubs indicates he is in for teh 2028 Presidential PrizeRepubs could love that. 

 

“Yesterday I asked a chicken to cross the road and it said, ‘What for?”  Stephen Wright. 

 

Remember when Hampton Inns first appeared as above average no frills value hotels and you said, ok, I can handle a night with plastic cups. Now Hampton Inns till uses plastic cups and they have added waffle makers to free breakfasts but the prices are now in the luxury atmosphere.  

 

Over in England scientists are saying that deleting emails and photos on phones could save a lot of water. Yes, data centers use lots of water for cooling. Who knew? Sounds archaic in our whis bang digital universe. 

 

Trump wants the Nobel Prise so much that he is willing to risk his reputation for humility to he get it. 

 

I like Stevie Nicks and her deep resonating voice but you have to admit she has made a good levvain being ultra cool and and a mediocre dancer. 

 

When the so-celled real media gets caught up in the fever of events like the Putin/Trump meet, the only other news is about healthy eating and celebrity divorce settlements 

 

Do you know what realy happens when disruptive new elements like tariffs enter the traditional scheme? Smart people in business figure it out and work it into their  company plans and investment strategies.  

 

The Answer: 

In 1969 Peter Green formed the classic band that first included Jeremy Spencer, Danny Kirwin, Bob Welsh, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie. When Green left in 1970 Christie McVie, John’s wife joined. By 1974, Welsh, Spencer and Kirwin had departed. In scouting for members they found an American folk twosome called NicksBuckingham. They invited Buckingham but he said he wouldn't join without Nicks and the rest is history. Nicks new tour is a tribute to sadly deceased Christie and an ailing Buckingham. And of course the rest of the groupThe music world was hoping for a Lindsey/Stevie tour. 

 

Weekends are good for dreams. Stevie kicked off her tour in Brooklyn with that song. 

Have a dreamy weekend, E-v-e-r-y-b-o-d-y!!
