Nothing says Texas Chicken more than Korean BBQ!

See This Guy?

 

Pretty sure I'd be walking the other way.

Maybe not.  Looks like he is now going to wade out and meet the shark.

"Wait here. Gonna give him a whupping."

Karma....?

 

Okay......

 

That's the last time you piddle on the floor, Mr. Fluff!

Okay, so the zoo is listing guinea pigs, rabbits and chickens as possible donations. After being euthanized, the animals will be used as fodder, the zoo said.

No mention of dogs or cats, but hey........

History In A Can

Was up in beautiful Grand Bend Ontario on the shores of Lake Huron and enjoyed a beer from a local craft brewery, The Torched Brewery.

But I was interested in the origins of the name, Crooked Waters.

If you are, too, fear not, gentle readers, read on.

The Ausable River used to flow north (#1) then made a 270° bend - some said a grand bend - and then flowed southwest to empty into Lake Huron at Port Franks.

Another picture of the watershed.

But enough of that, back to the beer.

So when the beer can is properly viewed...

...you can see the green line is actually the Ausable River, flowing to the right (north) and then makes a grand bend to flow southeast. 

And that's where they plunked the village of Grand Bend.

Then between 1873 & 1875 a channel was dug to allow the river to flow directly into Lake Huron. 

And that's how the village of Grand Bend came to be one of the best beach party locations in Ontario.

And the Ausable River flows directly into Lake Huron.

And I thought beer cans were just for drinking beer, not lernin' history, too.

Are You Sitting Down?

 Any idea who this buffed bod belongs to?

I'll give you one hint (and this is the sitting down part).

That's right.

If he can do it then, yikes, the rest of us have no excuses......

They said he quipped on Instagram as he shared different photos from the shoot.

"Some celebs use Ozempic, some use private chefs, others use personal trainers. I did all three," he wrote.

"Debuting my new character: Middle aged man who replaced beer with protein shakes."

Damn, I knew there was a catch.

Of course, long before Borat, I loved him as Ali G.

Google "Ali G" for some of his outrageous videos.

Like Borat, he hilariously punks many self-important people.
