The fry cook is in, and he’s been chopping up bits and pieces of some random soundbites and news clips with some…uh…interesting ingredients. Not sure hot sauce is gonna cover that flavor, but he’s roasting the hell out of it this week. Here’s the freshest batch of Scrapple – good luck:
1. Les kassos…
France has recently announced that they intend to phase out any and all forms of combustion engines in vehicles by 2040 by just banning them in an effort to meet the target goals set by the Paris climate accord. Hm, interesting option, for sure. Plans are in place to financially bribe owners of vehicles made after certain model years (1997 for diesels, 2001 for gasoline-powered) to scrap their cars.
2. That’s just nasty.
That ain’t Nickelodeon slime, folks. A truck carrying a load of hagfish destined for dinner tables overseas crashed in Oregon in a chain-reaction scene, releasing 7,000 pounds of creatures also known as “slime eels”. When a hagfish is stressed out, they create a massive amount of mucus. One hagfish can whip up about five gallons’ worth. Let’s see…7,000 pounds of living fossil, times five…let’s put it this way: Oregon DOT brought out bulldozers to shove dead hagfish and slime of of Highway 101.
3. Death Watch 2017 update:
Say goodbye: Honda Accord coupe, Volkswagen Touareg, and the Focus RS is a done deal at the end of next year.
4. JUST RECALL THEM ALL ALREADY.
This is getting old…tack on another 2.7 MILLION faulty airbag grenades inflators. 627,ooo Nissan Versas, about 6,000 Mazda B-series pickups, and up to 2.2 million Fords.
5. “I thought the kids were kind of quiet…”
The 2018 Honda Odyssey has already shown a small glitch in it’s infotainment system…and that’s not all it showed. Since the Odyssey now has 4G LTE capability, you can feasibly stream shows from sources such as EPIX. When Forbes tested an Odyssey out, they discovered that they were able to stream porn. Honda went into pure panic mode and worked with EPIX to quickly fix that little oversight in a freakin’ hurry.
BONUS: “Goodnight, everybody!”
Near BangShift Mid-West is the Natcher Parkway. It’s one of the many routes I take to go to Nashville and is currently under construction for upgrades that will bring the roadway to Interstate standards. On July 11th, the driver of a truck filled with “chicken parts” got surprised by a vehicle driving out of the construction zone and rolled his rig trying to avoid hitting the other vehicle. This allowed the truck to spill it’s contents all over the road, prompting a road closure. Have you got jokes? I do, but we are a family-friendly site…
Hag fish and “dump body” chicken parts…please don’t associate pork sausage meat mixed with oats (scrapple)with that highway mess. Lohnes’ palate is limited as it is. 🙂
The world is insane.
No wonder my wife spends so much time in her new Odyssey.
Hagfish?
Why anybody would want to eat a fish that bores its head like a turbocharged drill bit into anything dead and stinky and eats and eats until there is nothing left is beyond me. In Britain we eat proper fish like cod and avoid dumping it over other people’s cars…
