OK, OK.... this is a well done commercial etc, etc. Looks like a high budget, Arnold Schwarzenegger action flick. Shoulda saved it for the Super Bowl afaic. Whatever. That's all beside the point. The point is.... TACO BELL HAS FRENCH FRIES NOW????!!!! I don't know whether to be jubilant or horrified!!! On one hand, I've been wishing for ages that Taco Bell would start serving some kind of French fry or tater tot type side order, so I would no longer have to walk over to either the McDonald's or Burger King next door (depending on which TB I'm eating at) to buy an order of them to carry back to Taco Bell with me, so I could have fries with my burrito. Thing is, I've pretty much cut that stuff out of my diet, but now, I've got a reason to start going back again. Damn!!! Yay!!!! Damn!!! |

I noticed that this A.M. when I had the urge for a bean burrito...just seems too 'off-menu', but I would be careful if I were you. Taco Bell is the food of criminals, now - your old azz could get car-jacked, robbed and...who knows what terrible things could happen to an old guy just lookin' for some nacho fries...

Well OK then, if it's weird Taco Bell stories we're doing here, I can top that....
Man in Florida Discovers 'WWII Hand Grenade,' Drives It to Local Taco Bell A good thing to do if you ever happen to find a grenade is to immediately call the authorities, as one man has evidently just learned. A Taco Bell in Ocala, Florida was evacuated on Saturday after a fisherman reportedly stumbled upon a hand grenade while magnet fishing and then drove it to a local Taco Bell, the Ocala Police Department said Saturday. The man was not identified by police, but he had reportedly been magnet fishing in neighboring Ocklawaha when he discovered the grenade. Police said that after having arrived at the fast food restaurant, he dialed 911. It’s not clear why he chose to transport it to the Taco Bell before alerting the authorities, but no one was hurt in the incident. The department said that a bomb squad with the Marion County Sheriff’s Office was present “to ensure everyone’s safety.” “The bomb squad removed the grenade without incident and advised it would be disposed of properly,” the Ocala Police Department said in a statement. The man reportedly alerted the authorities at around 5 p.m. local time, according to police, at which time the Taco Bell was evacuated. The Ocala Police Department tweeted around 6:45 p.m. that the restaurant had reopened for service. Interestingly, the cops identified the grenade as “an authentic WWII hand grenade,” though it’s not clear what kind. An image appears to show it could be a U.S. Mk 2 grenade. We reached out to the department for more information and will update this post if we hear back. Magnet fishing turning up relic weaponry is actually not as uncommon as you might think. The BBC reported last year that bomb squads in the U.K. are “regularly” called to magnet fishing sites where people have turned up even live ammunition. One teen who spoke with the BBC about the hobby told the outlet he’d hauled in guns and even a live grenade while magnet fishing. As the BBC noted and as you have probably surmised, it is for this exact reason that the hobby can be dangerous. Anyway, if you happen to pull a potentially explosive weapon on your next magnet fishing excursion, definitely just call the police. |

This is kind of funny...The last time I went to Culver's for some food for the two of us, she wanted an order of fries w/cheese sauce. Crazy Wisconsinites!

^^^Nothing so odd about that - one of The Missus & Self's old 'binge date' haunts were regular runs for the Shoney's Counter for chili-cheese fries and chocolate shakes...then the run home and 'first to the toilet' competition. Soooo good!
Now, I DO love Taco Bell's nacho cheese sauce, so I will be trying the fries...
