Honestly as long as I can still play the peg game I’m probably good for 4-5 trips there per year. My wife loves it- we ate there the day we got married before getting on the flight to our honeymoon lol. And it looks like the core menu is still there, you can still get an Uncle Herschel’s or Old Timer’s.

But now you can also get a hasbrown casserole shepherd’s pie which sounds pretty dang good.

That’s about how many times we go a year. Love the peg game. My wife loves it also. She also loves the shopping section. We went last week. The shopping area was still the same, but the dining area was different. I don’t know exactly how to describe it, but it had kind of a sterile look to it. The food hasn’t changed, but the dining area just didn’t have that folksy feeling it used to have. Still, if I had to make a list of things to worry about, the change at Cracker Barrel would be way down the list.

Yeah I don’t view this through a political angle at all like the right wing dorks but I hate that my fellow millennials keep insisting on sucking the soul out of design and aesthetics in favor of this boring minimalism.

“… She was arrested after storming the stage at New York City’s Shakespeare in the Park to protest a Trump-inspired Julius Caesar and kicked off Uber and Lyft for saying that she did not want Muslim drivers. She also lost two bids for GOP congressional nominations in Florida, symbolically refusing to concede the second because of the “voter fraud” she says was caused by her inability to communicate on social media. She found out at the end of last year that she would not get the White House job she thought she was promised, and lost her ability to make money on X after violating the platform’s doxxing policies.

Yet, here we are. Loomer, the proud, defiant, extremist troll, is one of the most influential public figures in what is still the most important country on the planet—“back from the dead and rose from the ashes,” she told me.

How did this come to pass? “I am a genuine person, and I speak my mind. I am not fake,” she offered. “It’s a story of persistence. As I like to say, persistence will beat the resistance.”…”

“… In just the first seven months of Trump’s second presidency, she successfully lobbied Trump to end Secret Service protection for Joe Biden’s children. She has pushed the president to fire six members of his National Security Council, remove three leaders at the National Security Agency, end an academic appointment at West Point, fire the director of the National Vetting Center at the Department of Homeland Security, dispatch an assistant U.S. attorney in California, and remove a federal prosecutor in Manhattan. After Trump’s intel chief stripped 37 current and former national-security officials of their security clearance Wednesday, she claimed credit for first labeling 29 of them as threats to Trump….”

She’s not fake? Her face says otherwise. She is only 32…

Seems a good time to post the McCarthy-Cohn-Trump pipeline.

Roy Cohn: The ‘evil’ master architect who mentored Donald Trump

Decades before Trump erected his Tower, an insidiously well-connected New York power-player was cutting a ruthless path through US society, politics and courtroom battles. A new film charts Roy Cohn’s outsized influences on America and the 45th president, writes Sheila Flynn

Reminder to all that McCarthy took the side of SS troopers that executed American POWs over the government of the United States who was trying to get justice for the murders.

Fairly certain this statement would still be true even if it was referencing Kevin (McCarthy).
