Starting out this morning with more bad news for every other morning - if ya get my drift...

If you’re a fan of orange juice with your norning rituals, there is one product that you won’t be able to get anymore starting next month. According to Good Housekeeping, Minute Maid is discontinuing its frozen juice cans in the U.S. and Canada for good by April. Once inventory runs out in stores, these drinks will be gone for good.
“We are discontinuing our frozen products and exiting the frozen can category in response to shifting consumer preferences,” a spokesperson from parent company Coca-Cola said. “With the juice category growing strongly, we’re focusing on products that better match what our consumers want,” the spokesperson added.
Minute Maid’s frozen juice cans started as a World War II staple for soldiers on the front lines looking to get a needed dose of vitamin C. Since then, the cans have become a household staple in many American family diets.
If you're like me, this was the go-to OJ in our house from Day One. It had a stature in house almost like no other product. From the day I was born 'til I finally moved out when I turned 18, there was always a pitcher of Minute Maid in our fridge. Good bye, old friend. We'll surely miss ya, but we still have the memories...

Think about the subtle genius of this wartime promotion for the Armed Forces. What they were saying, in essence, was that if you don't join in and help your country fight a war you may or may not agree with, your chances of ever getting laid are slim to none. I wonder how well it worked...

This is my opinion only, so if you disagree or wannna go all F. Lee Bailey for the dog lovers, save it. Whoever came up with this bullshit of bringing dogs in to restaurants was a jerkoff. Why the fuck would I wanna be faced with a German Shepard that's licking his nuts while I'm trying to eat my cheeseburger? And don't get me started on that 'Service Animal' bullshit. Yes, there are people who need a service animal. Fine. But putting one of those harness things on a fuckin' pink poodle that you're pushing around town in a fuckin' baby carriage is stretching credulity a bit, don'tcha think? Juss' sayin'...

And they deserve it. The Awards ceremony used to be about
style and class and true talent. They've politicised it to the
point where they've pissed people off with their poloitical
bullshit. Nobody gives a fuck what you thinnk, Jane...

Costco is set to open its first standalone gas station by the end of June as the company continues to prioritize fuel.

Mission Viejo, California, about 49 miles from Los Angeles, will be the home of the wholesaler's first gas station location.

Do you like a strong cup of tea? I found this in Belfast a long time ago.
It's the best tea I've ever tasted. Buying it in packs of four boxes
reduces the cost to just 20 cents per cup.

When we were kids, we didn't look at a sign like this and think of it as a warning to be heeded. Fuck that - that's a challenge straight up. There's no way you wouldn't go in there when no one was around. And, if the quarry was idle, there's no way you weren't exploring every square inch of the place. It had to be done - you had no coice.

A new report from the Los Angeles Times claims that more Mexicans were deported annually under President Biden than during President Trump’s administration, citing data compiled by a Mexico City investigative outlet using figures from the Mexican government. According to the report, the number of Mexicans deported from the United States in recent years under Biden exceeded the yearly totals during Trump’s presidency. 
However, critics say the way the data is presented raises questions. The article focuses specifically on Mexican nationals deported to Mexico, which represents only one portion of overall immigration enforcement numbers. Analysts note that total deportations, border expulsions, and enforcement actions can vary widely depending on how the statistics are counted - including whether migrants are turned back at the border, formally removed, or processed through other immigration programs.

  4. Lots of people tried to create frozen OJ. Failed, tasted like cr*p. Finally, one rather wealthy Floridian financed one formula that worked. Made him much more wealthy. Who?

    Ben Hill Griffin, a name that most every Floridian knows.

  6. If there isn't at least $10K worth if training, it isn't a service animal, it's a pet. If you want to complain that your service animal was kicked out of someplace, blame the idiots pretending their pets are service animals.

  7. As of early 2026, a Big Mac menu (meal) in Denmark costs approximately 58–60+ DKK, which translates to roughly $10–$12 USD including 25% VAT. A Big Mac meal in South Florida is $11.50 + TAX.

    So consumers in Denmark pay roughly the same as consumers in the US. Employees in Denmark get a decent wage, vacation and incredible health insurance. Do American McDonalds employees make $20-22 per hour + health insurance and vacation? I don't think they do.

    We, American workers and consumers are getting screwed. Pointing it out doesn't mean I hate America.
    For those of you that have not been to Denmark... let me inform you that it is a free, capitalist country.

    1. Does Denmark waste its money defending a bunch of ungrateful snobs on a different continent? Maybe we should just pull all of our troops out of Europe and let Europe deal with Russia. The US has already wasted $182B on the Ukraine. Maybe the US could have spent that money at home instead.

  9. I'm sure women preferred men in uniform. Didn't you love seeing a woman in a dress military uniform? Not the fatigues they all wear now. What about cheerleaders? Or a dress business suit, that too is a uniform.

  10. My dad refused to buy Minute Maid because their ads ruined the Rose Parade by coming on every 5 minutes.

    1. It's a semantic game. Obama called turning someone away while they're still in Mexico "deporting". It was a deliberate way to make it so no one could say for sure what was going on. Kind of like calling all deaths, regardless of cause (auto accident?) a "covid death" if anyone was infected.

      I'm with you, if they're here illegally, deport them. No one is above the law.

  13. I can't believe 17 million people are stupid enough to watch the Oscars. It's a shitshow.

  15. I like the smell of gas and diesel; the smell of earth and sage.. Reminds me of being around and operating heavy equipment and trucks. Doing work where you could see real results. This computer has no smell.
