Memorial Day weekend in Southern California?
Cloudy weather, high bacteria and blue jellyfish
And there I was thinking the weather was always perfect out there - especially at this time of year. Go figure. From cloudy skies along the coast (not-so) affectionately known as "May Gray" to high bacteria levels, some Southern Californians looking forward to a beach weekend might be in for a disappointment. The National Weather Service in San Diego said marine layer clouds were covering the region for the whole weekend. Don'tcha just hate when that happens?

Bud Light sales fell for the sixth consecutive week even as retailers slashed prices - with one store charging $3.49 for a 24-pack - to get rid of the unwanted beer as the nationwide boycott over its partnership with Dylan Mulvaney continued.
Since Bud Light’s parent company Anheuser-Busch teamed up with transgender influencer Mulvaney, sales have fallen precipitously, and stores have been marking down the company’s products to get them off their shelves.
“This could be a promotional summer the likes we haven’t seen since after Hurricane Katrina in 2005, where there was so much beer inventory backed up in the trade that it initiated the price war of all price wars,” Beer Business Daily said according to Fox Business.
The trade publication, which reviewed Nielsen IQ data, said Bud Light volumes for the week ending May 13 fell 28.4 percent, following a 27.7 percent drop the prior week.

I don't know if I'd get on one...
China's first domestically produced passenger jet has taken off on its maiden commercial flight. Chinese State TV showed the C919 rising into the skies above Shanghai, heading to the capital Beijing early today. It was built by the Commercial Aviation Corporation of China (Comac) in the hope of breaking the dominance of Airbus and Boeing's single-aisle jets.
I'm very hesitant when I get on an Airbus jet. I doubt I'll ever have to get on one of these, thankfully. Juss' sayin'...
