Bye Felicia -
Went to our local community VA yesterday for a physical. (Tests/Everything looked great.) My Dr. made the comment, "You are in great overall shape for a 61 yr old." 6'1" 192 lbs. BP 112/77. ๐
Passed by our local Taco Bell on the way home. It had been a long while, (just shortly after Covid hit) being a Sucker for Taco's, I was Jonesing for some and pulled in.
6 Supreme Hard shells and a large soda, just short of $19. I had to ask if that was correct. (?) Last time I was there, you could get a 12 pack of Supreme Taco's for around $18. When I pulled up to the window, I asked about the price of the 12 pack, thinking it might be a better deal. $26. Nope. ๐ค
I can go right across the street to Little Caesar's and buy 3 pizzas for what 6 Taco's and a large soda cost me. ๐
Wow.
Guess I need to hit Poblano's on Taco Tues. (Believe they are .99 cents ea.) [And] You can load up sides at the Condiment bar, Guac., Salsa, Jalapeno's, cheese etc. & get a big bag of just cooked tortilla chips/salsa with whatever you order. Much Mo Betta. ๐

Price of all food has sky rocketed, fast or otherwise, drove through Whataburger a few days ago when getting some lumber at Lowes, a double meat single slice of cheese Whataburger Jr. small fries and a ice tea was almost 10 bucks... same item was less than 6 dollars only 18 months ago.

Thanks Joe! AND people will continue to vote for the people who caused this(commies and TINOs alike)! Just gonna get worse and worse from here on out.
Believe what they are telling you! They think the 1% should pay more and have less. News flash, on the WORLD scale.......WE are the 1%!
Everyone THINKS they are talking about billionaires, but if your household makes 75k-100k a year, then YOU are the 1% compared to the 3rd world where they make 1k or less per year!

Food cost so much now that it's cheaper to just eat the money.

Our "glorious" leaders never think thing through. Shut down the country and pay people to sit on their butt and then wonder why there are shortages that drives the prices up. Handcuff the energy producers, causing fuel shortages and then wonder why the price of fuel goes up. People making more on the dole than they were working before the shutdown and then wonder why there is a labor shortage and why the cost of labor has skyrocketed. Less workers mean less production of goods and they wonder why prices go up. I wish I could say it was a nefarious plan by those in government because they could be voted out. Unfortunately, it is nothing but stupidity and ineptness no matter who we have running the country so it ain't going to get much better for a while, if ever.
Sorry for the negativity, but venting is good for the soul.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL! Bob

We went to dinner last weekend to have a get together with our sons Dil and grandkid
A nothing special cheeseburger was 14.00 with a bag of chips came with it upgrade to French frys 3.00 a glass of beer was 6.50 and 3.00 or so for a diet coke
Just my wifes and mine was 59.00
The place automaticly added 9.00 as a tip just on our two burger order
L I was not too happy wife had paid while i picked out a table
I would never gave a tip as we had to stand in line give our order at the register all they did was bring it to our table
I am sure they did the same on each of my sons bills
Last time we had went about a year ago I think is was 12.00 for a cheeseburger platter with the frys and we could tip what we wanted
The place has about 4 items on the menu burgers or sausage
And as stated even the use to be cheap fast food drive-thru ate just crazy prices
Go Brandon your sorry *^#%*)

It seems to me that all these eating out places will get most peoples business just once and done. Soon we will here the cries of restaurants shutting down due to lack of customers. Paying someone close to 20 bucks an hour to wait on you at McDonalds sure doesn't help make a HAPPY MEAL happy!!

Hard to justify the prices of restaurant food when the service is crap just about everywhere.
My wife and I have taken to eating at the bar most places, cause the bartenders can't wander off. If the food's what I ordered and you keep my sweet tea full, I'll tip you pretty well. But if I have to track you down with my empty glass, just don't expect a tip. I swear they think their job's done once they take the order.
Sign of the times, I guess. Service is crap in a lot of industries.

I am on the road almost every weekend due to attending a gun show. An have found that its cheaper an awhole lot better food to dine at small family owned restaurants or dinners. Like stated before Bars with restaurants an pizza place restaurants. Offer way better service an way much better tasting food. I dont mind spending for good food an tipping for good service. Found along time ago what you pay an fast food joints is usually the same amount for a sit down dinner. Just use that stupid phone an look at the ratings an prices before you dine

I always get "Diablo" sauce, @asphalt cowboy. Not very hot eating it, but very similar to your bear photo the next day. Sweet Jesus.
I always think of the Johhny Cash song, "Ring of Fire." ๐ค๐๐๐คฃ๐ฎ
