Cokes at McDonalds

Not sure that I am buying this explanation of why Cokes at McDonalds tastes better. I have two friends that work at Coke who have confirmed that Coke supplies a slightly thicker syrup to McDonalds to make it taste better. The only other customer that receives the special blend is The Varsity in Atlanta.

My coworkers in Augusta (that I work closely with) have a company-sponsored basketball team that advanced to the semi-finals of their season ending tournament. Brent is supposedly a beast inside. Nikkar is older but can still keep up. Tonight they play the number one team, made up of former college and semi-pro players (they lost).

I am hearing that Dock’s father Neil had been in the hospital, and had been in lots of pain. Neil had been playing golf every week. My coworker Todd and I need to go visit him.

Wednesday: worked until 630 again. Grilled BBQ chicken, salad, and roasted potato wedges for supper. Ceil had heard that the old sitcom “New Girl” was good. I hadn’t thought it was a show she would like, but she loved the first two episodes. Guess we’ll be binge watching that now. Wednesday was Aces forward Kate Martin’s birthday.

Thursday: up early to lift weights at the gym.

Friday: might get a haircut. Might play golf. But Friday night Matthew and I are going to the Rolling Stones concert at Mercedes Benz Stadium. We haven’t ever seen them before. Should be interesting.

Also it sounds like Matthew is moving, to a place closer to his work in Decatur. He might be taking some of the furniture taking up space in our garage.   

Old-timey curse words: thundernation, fopdoodle, gadzooks, snails, trollop, bedswerver, rantallion, quim, beardsplitter, bescumber, defenestrate. Okay the only one that’s halfway good is thundernation. I could probably come up with a better list on my own, like "cheese and crackers!".

JOE MAUER [B-R Bio] was the first player drafted this century, the #1 pick in the first round of the 2001 MLB June Amateur Draft. He signed the richest contract in history for a catcher. In 2010 he signed the fourth largest baseball contract in major league baseball history for $184,000,000 with the Minnesota Twins. By 2013, his principal position was 1st base. He appeared in the “Faces in the Crowd” section in Sports Illustrated. High school football player Mauer appeared in the Christmas issue 2000. He graced the SI cover in 2006, 2009 & 2018 as well as in the top/center on the cover of SI’s 50th anniversary of FITC issue here.

DENISON: the US faces a rising three-theater threat today in Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing the conduct of war. The likelihood of space warfare with Russia and China is escalating. And the US military’s new cyber chief is warning that China’s hacking network is seeking to “pre-position” for future attacks on our critical infrastructure.

Article: how can Christians be so divided in their beliefs about Donald Trump? Need a similar article about Biden and Obama.
