Today's Tids Issue 5,918
Limits:
Shohei Ohtani is one incredible baseball player – period.
I’ve been told that reading the Tids is good for people in the hospital... or are they saying, you have to be sick to read the Tids.
Until we get past this era of revenge and gotcha politics somehow, we will never have peace in America.
As long as you don't achieve anything, you know no limits to your possibilities.
The Question:
Today 222 years ago, the USA doubles in size. What happened?

I like Apple and they make great products. But going forward I think investors will be looking at pr ogress of other things on the drawing board. Those that aren't dependent on the whims of consumers. Things that become intrinsic in the digital future. They can do it, can’t they?
As I look around at the ramped discombobulation of the world I'm reminded of this one liner: “I'd like to slip into something more comfortable, like a coms?” But then, that would be giving up wouldn't it. We can never stop fighting for integrity in our world that has taken a deep dive into frivolity and selfishness.
Every day that I think it is a good one to plant bulbs for spring flowers, l look at the weather forecast only to see a gullywasher on tap for the next day. Bulbs should not be sitting in soggy puddles, So I recalculate which is actually great for a procrastinator.
“Procrastination always gives you something to look forward to.”
Trump said last week: “100% Tariffs are unsustainable”. I say
100% tariffs were a laughable idea in the first place.
The Amazon web shutdown shows us just how fragile a digital reliant earth can be. Worried yet?
Often I lose a perfectly good Tiddlet because I can't read my handwriting in my notes.
Often I lose a perfectly good Tidlet I've written because the cloud moves the curser.
You just got to love teh driving emotional forces in the first Movement of Beethoven's Eroica Symphony.
Just when you think the NCAA has settled on teh cream for their polls, #2 Miami loses to Louisville. I think the portal is actually spreading talent around as bench sitting star recruits on power teams look elsewhere so they can play.
Never put off until tomorrow anything you can do the day after tomorrow.
There is no tomorrow for Today's Tids. That’s why I have ot procrastinate everything else.
The Answer:
Thomas Jefferson arranged to purchase from France and the Senate ratified the action (Dismissing constitutionality questions) on October 20, 1803. Everybody knows that. Napolean needed to raise money for his war of the moment and offered the US a deal -- only $15 Million, while still a lot in those days was a bargain so much land. Monroe and Livingston were flabbergasted at their good fortune.
Have a good day says a smiling Tidster!!
