Break in, make pies, sell 'em, get busted. Sounds like a plan...

There's this report today about this guy, Jonathon Hacket, 41, who was arrested on Sunday after officers responded to a report of a break-in at one of the pizza chain’s locations, according to the Kinston Police Department. Hacket, a former employee at the pizza joint, had “unlawfully entered the business on two separate occasions.” 
During the first incident, Hackett allegedly busted in, prepared pizzas, sold them to customers, and pocketed the proceeds, police said. Hackett made and sold ten pizzas, raking in $50. Later, employees allegedly tried to prevent the dough dealer from entering the store a second time — sparking a physical altercation. He was treated at UNC Lenoir for injuries he sustained during the fight and was later taken into custody. He was booked at the Lenoir County Jail in Kinston.
Hackett’s mugshot showed his eye completely swollen shut, possibly from the scuffle at the pizza place.
He has been hit with a slew of charges, including breaking and entering, obtaining property by false pretenses, larceny after breaking and entering, and a city curfew violation. “It was very strange, you know, it’s nothing I’d ever heard of,” Kinston Police Chief Keith Goyette said.

The Yankees are getting a 'little' $3.2 Billion 'upgrade...

The hype behind proposed changes to Yankee Stadium in the Bronx says this will change the way baseball is seen forever...
 
In a groundbreaking announcement that shook the global sports world, the New York Yankees - the iconic Major League Baseball team - revealed a $3.2 billion comprehensive renovation plan for Yankee Stadium, a project described as changing how the world experiences baseball in the 21st century.
Announced in late January 2026, this plan goes further than any previous upgrade in American baseball history. Instead of simply “refreshing the seats” or “repainting the VIP areas,” the Yankees are completely rebuilding their vision for a 'holistic' entertainment center.
The stadium, located in the Bronx, New York, will be transformed into a multi-functional space with cutting-edge technology, premium amenities, and unprecedented experiences for fans. Key highlights of the plan include:
  • A modernized grandstand structure with unobstructed views and movable seating for a more immersive game experience.
  • World-class VIP areas and suites offer unparalleled luxury for the elite and loyal fans seeking the “Yankees “premium” experience.
  • Improved projection technology with ultra-high-resolution screens and the latest sound systems transforms every game into a spectacular entertainment event.
  • But the most shocking aspect isn’t just the locker rooms or the 8K screens. The Yankees are transforming the area surrounding the stadium into a comprehensive “Entertainment District,” including:
  • Luxury hotels right next to the stadium, offering a complete experience from accommodation to baseball.
  • Restaurants, bars, and nightlife venues, turning every non-game day into an attractive destination.
Never before has a baseball stadium been built as such a “super entertainment complex” - where history and modernity meet, where sports entertainment blends with tourism and urban culture. 
Another aspect that has prompted public attention is the plan to create the Yankees Legacy Experience - an interactive center dedicated to celebrating the team’s glorious history.





Okay - help me out on this one...

 File this one under 'I really, really don't get it...

Now I know there's some kind of virtue signalling in 
this one, but I'll be damned if I can figure it out. 
Did something happen with moks or something that 
I missed? Clue me in...

You can 'demand' until the cows come home, but...

 
Give one single solitary stupid inch, and they'll take a mile. These so-called 'demands' they've issued are not only untenable, they're also pandering at it's worst possible level.  Democrats have refused to support long-term funding for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) unless Republicans agree to reforms on the tactics of federal agents carrying out Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.
“The American people rightfully expect their elected representatives to take action to rein in ICE and ensure no more lives are lost,” the Senate minority leader, Chuck Schumer, and his House counterpart, Hakeem Jeffries, wrote on Wednesday night in a letter issuing 10 formal demands to GOP leadership in order to avert a 13 February lapse in funding for the department, which oversees Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and the US Border Patrol.
Republicans, who control both chambers, have already ruled out many of the ideas Democrats have outlined, but Democrats are expected to put forward legislation to codify their proposals. 
I don't need to list all of what they want, but if you need to see them, 
they're enumerated in this article you'll find here.

Enraged spandex-clad customers at a Minneapolis CorePower Yoga studio berated staffers for being “complicit” in the federal immigration crackdown during a caught-on-camera clash last weekend — demanding that they immediately condemn ICE.
Video of the clash posted to social media by Heather Anderson, who claims to have been a regular at the location for nearly a decade, shows at least 13 women “spontaneously” facing off against two female staffers inside of the studio’s lobby after a Sunday class let out.
The thing you  have to figure out is - how hard would slap any one of these bitches if they pulled some stupid shit like that in front of you? Take your time - I'll be over here...

The older photo above shows the ritual of the 'hazing' of US Navy sailors during an Equator crossing ceremony, 1944. This 'ceremonial ritual' is no longer practiced but had been for a hundred years. Any sailor who had NOT crossed the Equator before was subject to this hazing. The actual ship in this shot is unidentified but could easily be the LST that my father was stationed on at that exact time. 
This pic below is his record of his crossing.

Another lie we've wined about with for too long...

An estimate reveals that 90% of wines are supposed to be consumed within one year, while 99% should be consumed within five, otherwise they go 'bad'.
Aging wine is a risky and often expensive endeavor, as there is no guarantee that the wine will improve with time. In some cases, the wine may even spoil or turn into vinegar.
So, which wines should be aged? Generally speaking, wines with high tannins and acidity are good candidates for aging. These wines have the structure and backbone to develop complex flavors over time. Some wines that age well include Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir, and Syrah.
 

On the other hand, wines with low tannins and acidity, such as most white wines, are not suitable for aging. These wines are best enjoyed young and fresh (kinda like women?) when their fruit flavors and aromas peak.





Here's Bernie - the king of 'Do as I say, not as I do'...

 

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-VT, who crisscrossed the country last year on a Fighting Oligarchy tour with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY, spent over $550,000 in 2025 on private jet travel for himself using campaign funds, a Fox News Digital review of Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings found.
The majority of the spending came in the first two quarters, which cover up until July. That is also when Sanders and AOC had the majority of their tour stops across the country. In April, between stops on the tour, Fox News Digital exclusively obtained a photo of Sanders boarding a luxury Bombardier Challenger private jet at the Meadows Field Airport in Bakersfield, California.
 

The source also indicated seeing the New York congresswoman boarding the private jet as well. The pair were subsequently also seen in footage obtained by Fox News Digital exiting the plane in Sacramento later that evening, near where the self-identified democratic socialists hosted a second rally in one day.  
A vidoe of them boarding is here.

Everybody (well, the ladies, anyway) was kung fu fighting...

 
Johnson’s first swing with her left hand hit Zavala in the face, and some of her ensuing blows hit Zavala in the back of the head. Johnson then calmed down and returned to the Winthrop bench. It did not appear that Johnson was ejected before the end of High Point’s 88-74 victory in Rock Hill, S.C.
 

Teammates, coaches and referees immediately rushed in to try to break things up as Zavala did not retaliate.High Point is the reigning Big South champion, and Zavala was the star of the Panthers’ win in the conference title game over Longwood last March, scoring 16 points and grabbing 10 rebounds.
They were given a No. 16 seed in the NCAA Tournament and lost to fellow No. 16 seed William & Mary in the First Four, 69-63.
