Yeah our Home Depot has that and the Jarritos Mexican sodas often by the checkouts. But WalMart usually has both as well and now some of the big brands are coming out with "real sugar" versions. Mt Dew for example has one.

Probably with the bureaucracy involved a couple of million wouldn't even start the ball rolling!
Having the windows open it sure smells and feels like rain.
There are other places in the world where places like McD can sell beer. I don't remember where but I've read about it.

see I understand the whole pollution thing but I can think of many reasons to bring it online again but I also understand if its been quiet that long it would take a couple million to get it back in working order.

More like 10s of millions.

I bet that was a sight to behold in its glory days when that thing was in full swing!
If you want to see if it's engine related, turn off overdrive, and drive the speed you are experiencing the issue. If it continues at the same speed, it's likely not anything directly connected to the engine, since it would be turning at a different speed.
Good evening. It's clear and 80. A couple of things, first, the Ebay seller responded, pulled the engine out of his "to go" stuff, and changed the address. Yay! He told me he did something similar, so he was able to take care of it without further drama.

yea probably that's like here in Indiana last election season we had a senator who wanted to start using abandon factories to make like micro chips for the military since apparently they come from China. I think they quickly realized how expensive that was to do

Good afternoon from Baton Rouge LA. First leg of the trip was really quick. I generally travel with the pedal to the metal most of the time. I traveled 440 miles from home to lunch in Lafayette LA in 5.5 hours, giving me an average of 80 mph! Ooops! a bit over the limit! That's even with 15 miles through North Dallas which actually was quite smooth, and a couple of bathroom breaks. The short leg from Lafayette to our hotel in Baton Rouge was marred by much congestion in BR. Took over an hour to go 56 miles.
Somewhere along a very deserted section of IH-49 through central Louisiana, a mystery voice from no where, said "there's police reported ahead". I know that there is a phone app for that, but I didn't know that it was built into the Lexus! I had already spotted a suspicious vehicle parked on the side of the highway and slowed to ~78 mph. Limit on that highway is 75 mph. I got the warning twice more, once a false alarm.
Tomorrow will be more relaxed, with a stop in Gulfport MS for lunch and to visit Traintastic, a model railroad museum there. Then another 130 miles to Gulf Shores AL where we can't check in until 4:00. Got a dinner reservation here for 6:30, so I need to go now.

The Mickey D's at the pier in Hong Kong used to sell beer...

Now that's a great idea! Could even go down a slope and put it in neutral.

Good evening folks, 66 and raining here, strong storms expected the rest of the night. Worked the last two days at the gun store and quite busy as deer seasons start tomorrow. Got a new Unitrack bridge to try on the layout to see if it looks better than the current bridge. Gonna relax with an old movie tonight and make some popcorn to go with it.

McDonalds in the US should adopt that marketing strategy

Rain finally arrived several hours ago. Two or three hours of mild thunder and lightning and still raining moderately. Should continue until early morning. This will make up for a lot of missing rain around here.
I might even be able to burn all the tree limbs I've been collecting for the last two years.

Taco Bell has some places that sell alcohol in the US (or did a few years ago). I don't drink so I don't know the details but they were called or are called Taco Bell Cantinas IIRC.That's hilarious!

Map shows where you can buy beer at McDonald's
Time for a McBeer? A new map shows where you can get hold of a cold one at one of the chain's restaurants.

It's just as well US restaurants don't sell beer. It would be some crappy American swill with no flavor that would have to be drunk ice cold so you couldn't tell how crappy it is.

It would be great, but the blast furnaces have been replaced mostly with electric furnaces in those steel mills which are still in operation. For some reason the Steelton mill near Harrisburg has been shut down recently. The powers who run this country seem to be bent on making it into a third world country, with it's citizens only providing basic services. But i guess we should not be going into politics here. Steel mill in Bethlehem has made a lot of quality steel, with much of it being used in very well known projects, like the Empire State Building in New York City. While i was already there, i took the time to walk around to the railroad side of the main complex. And what a site it was. On the railroad sidings there are still rows of specialized rail cars which were used to move hot molten steel around different parts of the plant;
