The Ranting Beaver

Given that Americans are so much overweight and some 'fast food' companies are trying a healthier approach, you gotta like the chutzpah of Taco Bell when they rolled out the Bacon Cheddar Gordita Crunch.

I think their goal is to see how many items they can get on the menu that can induce a heart attack in one meal. Just saying ...

Saw one of these the other day and they get really good mileage (partly because they are so tiny, I'm sure), so I thought I'd check out their ability to survive a crash. Safety first y'know.

Not too shabby if you ask me. Granted, a Hummer rolls over one and that may be the end of that ... just saying.

Just want to wish The Beaver and Mr. Scary a happy new year. I look forward to many more posts from you both in the coming year.

And to the rest of you peeps -- have a great year ahead. Have a laugh, have a rant, but just don't have a bad day.
