I wonder.


Today's Tids Issue 5,974 

We're Ok: 

 

Now it all begins, 

The joyous spree sleeps. 

Goodbye frivolity and fun’  

Our new year a has begun’  

In earnest the year begins 

And we all wonder, 

What loses, what wins; 

Where will it all be, 

When all is said and done. 

 

Like the Venezuela attack or not, you have to say our military knows how to get the job done. 

 

Of course, while there is plenty of room for analytical observations of the volatile interactions between humans yet to come, there is still always plenty of room for dreams. 

 

One night I walked home very late and fell asleep in somebody’s satellite dish. My dreams were showing uo on TV;s all over teh world.” -Stephen Wright 

 

Hey, how could I begin a year without Stephen! 

The Question: 

Consumer Reports has just listed their Top Ten Cars and tehir Top Ten luxury cars. What are they? 

 

The Headlines: 

---Markets Seem I undeterred by Venezuela Strike; Oil Company Shares Gush; AI Stays atop the Investor’s Mind as this full Week beginning of 2026 

--US Allies Hedging their Praise of Venezuela Action while Enemies seize on it to Accuse America of Illegal Action; NK Launches Hypersonic Missiles inResponse to US Actions. .  

--NFL Playoffs Scenarios Wrapped Up; Seattle and Denver Number One Seeds. Carolina Stumbles into NFC South Title While Baltimore Blows it to Give AVC North Title to Pittsburgh 

--Iran Protests Continue and Trump Ups his Threat.  

--Minn Gv Walz Says He will Not Run for Third Term; Klobuchar Mulling a Run There. 

 

I was sitting at the breakfast table with a bunch of good ole’ wise gentlemen, and we agreed that one of the major contributors to inflation is the inability of too many people to reject ridiculously high prices 

 

In the wake of Venezuela, Trump said yesterday, “We need Greenland from the standpoint of National Security. 
They are beating the National Security reasoning to death. There is no maniacal dictator in Greenland. There are no drug cartels. The President is just exhibiting one of the more negative characteristics of our current society – entitlement.,  

 

Google and the rest of the empire builders really push us to get onto their clouds, so they can watch everything we do on all the devices we own. They need the cloud. I don't need the cloud 

 

This year in the NFL, the Patriots, Bears and Jags made a “Worst to First” turnaround, the most in History. The system is working. But, the big question is --- will it ever work for the Jets?  

 

Coffee still is an essential ingredient of my life. But I will never overpay 

 

“I remember the first time I had to go to sleep. Mom said, `Stephen, time to go to sleep.' I said, `But I don't know how.' She said, `It's real easy. You just go down to the end of tired, and take a left.' So I went down to the end of tired, and just out of curiosity I took a right. There was my mother, saying,`I thought I told you to go to sleep."  See, Stephen was human. He had a mom. 

 

The Answer: 

On their new autos list, Consumer Reports lists Subaru as Number one. It is followed by BMW, Porsche, Honda, Toyota, Lexus, Lincoln, Hyundai, Acura, and Tesla. On the Luxury Side we have BMW, Porsche, Lexus, Lincoln, Acura, Mini, Genisis, Audi, Cadillac and Volvo. Thank God for Ford’s Lincoln to the USA on the map 

 

No matter what the predictors tell us, we really don't know what will happen in the months to come. Every year is a great big surprise grab-bag! So, buckle your seat belts... and dont text while driving. We'll get there. 

 

I might as well start off the year with one of the most mesmerizing singers of all; you know, that woman with that voice
