I just made a beer run to Winn Dixie in LaBelle. Dang, all their unsold Christmas "stuff" was scooped into 3 shopping carts located at the front of the store near the entrance. Apparently they needed the shelf space to display VALENTINE'S Day products! Oi!
Yeah, phart, it's difficult to say no to a chocolate covered cherry and especially when it's half price. I just don't understand why Mr. Grocer doesn't think like that when it comes crown roast of pork or standing rib roast.....
That's a sensible way to look at the discounted Christmas items, of course. In the past, I have purchased discounted cards, ornaments and wrapping paper. Winn Dixie is a grocery store but I don't recall seeing those types of products there. They carry items like bags of seasonal cookies, candy and/or cakes, boxes of Christmas chocolates and "stocking stuffer" trinkets. I should have been on a hunt for a deeply discounted fruit cake to hang onto for the next year to gift a lucky someone!
Actually, I was in awe that there was not a trace of "Christmas" left anywhere on the store's shelves and that Valentine's Day will be their focus for the next 7 weeks.
I’m surprised Winn Dixie has valentine candy up already, that will be a non seller and a wasted space for making money for the next six weeks, no one buys valentine candy this far in advance and most retailers are stocking up on beer and chips for the second biggest beer event of the year, the Super Bowl.
Yea there were dozens of empty shelves at walmarts but there was a big display right at the door for the souper bowel. you might need to be careful typeing or saying or using those words that name the event,they might sue you for copyright issues. that's why alot of radio commercials and such just say the "big game" or something, to keep from being sued.
I made a trip to ACE Hardware this afternoon and purposely parked next to the Tesla "truck" that preceded me into the lot. The couple weren't quick to get out and it caused me to fiddle-fart around in car so I could time my exit with theirs. When I saw the driver's door open, I jumped out and made eye contact with her and confessed that I purposely parked next to their vehicle because I was hoping that she/they might allow me to look it over. She was more than happy and quite enthusiastic to give me a "tour".
The interior was quite roomy with a full back seat that would easily seat 3 adults. The futuristic design of the outside of the vehicle is quite deceptive because with a push of a button, the area which appears to be a "hatchback" rolls back to expose a rather large and roomy truck bed. The tires were massive and I think she mentioned that they work independently. She also mentioned that the vehicle's windshield/windows as well as body were bullet proof. Apparently, she/they like their electric vehicles because they have an "X" at home.
I've noticed a good deal of Tesla vehicles on Florida roads, my guess is that Floridians like electric cars!
I was able to look at 1 last week and there was alot of nice things about it but 1 thing I noticed was when i went to shut the passenger door,i put my thumb on the edge and the metal was sharp! the little trunk space at the front is very small, a couple kids could have a sleep over on the dash board though! it is huge.
New Jersey governor asks for Joe Biden’s help with unknown drone problem
Yeah right he sees unidentified objects in his head on a daily basis
I’m still waiting for Joe to tell us about the parade of pink and blue circus animals he seen on the front lawn of the White House
it is a absolute travisty that those drones are being allowed to fly over military bases here in the US, UK and other nations as we type.
" oh they are flying at night when there is less regulations", oh "you can't shoot them down they are aircraft" Fuck that ,shoot 1 of the sumbitches down and find out what the fuck it is before we get invaded.
balloons, drones, what the fuck else, iranians walking around our back yards eating pretzels?
The talking heads on tv say they are protected as aircraft by the faa. Well, if the faa controls where and how they fly, looks like the order to land them could be issued and if they don't land, it is a attack on our homeland. 1 mayor has already told responders to wear hazmat suits because no one knows if they are carrying nasty stuff. Why is such a violation of peoples privacy and our national security being handled so willy nilly is beyond me.

More than 50 drones spotted coming from out in the ocean heading for New Jersey and the Maryland coast
And a coastguard rescue ship followed for hours by one of the drones
sadly you are right.
Intolerable bullshit is what it is. you would think a state that knows how to throw a tea party would grow a pair and demand something be done about the swarming lights. Why new jersey? why not the white house or at least DC? odd they would pick there instead of a more important spot.
ol joe said he would unite the country.he finally did. We are ALL pissed off about the drones and lack of truth

and frankly I am pissed at the lack of rights. 201 feet above your back yard, a drone operator can spy right thru your windows and there is not a damn thing you can do about it. 199.9 feet,you can call and report it, then pooof it is gone and you look like a idiot.
they have drug their feet so long on this, any story they give out now could very well be bullshit.they have had time to fabricate 5 storys, much less 1. I will say though, if it was chinese or illegal drones, why would they bother having flashing lights and such to be "legal"?
Looks like if they were iran or china they would be stealth black with no lights,markings or anything? confusing to say the least.
I am going to make a quick statement, I want to say Merry Christmas to all of you. If I don't seem real warm and fuzzy it is because this time of year is depressing to me. Can't point to 1 thing that prompts it but i guess it is a accumulation of things that just makes me think it would be easier to sleep thru it and wake up shortly after tax time!
So Merry Christmas and Happy new year and to those that are offended by that, oh well, tough
Merry Christmas to you too my friend
I to hate the holidays it seems to be more about how much money you spend than about the birth of Christ we have our marketing and the media to thank for that
yea but the family gathers and everyone but me is actually "happy". I paint a smile on and try to enjoy it. I love my family but there are so many missing at the table now, just isn't the same.
Phart, I know exactly what you are saying, life goes on and so must you. I lost my parents at an early age and will always feel lonely without them, it’s normal to feel depressed around the holidays, so many do. Never forget the ones that you lost but they would want you to be happy. Keep a positive attitude, you have so many that love you.
and I'll tell you what you believe."
