WEEKEND MORNING COFFEE: Tommy On Board For Top Gun 3. End Of An Era For Super Bubble & Fruit Stripe. My Pillow Guy Gets Cancelled By Fox News.

 

 

♦  Another day, another sequel. Since last summer's sequel to Top Gun was a big hit, Tammy Tom Cruise has said he's on board with the idea to make Top Gun 3.  The 3rd installment will pair up Tom with co-stars Miles Teller and Glen Powell. The movie won't be released anytime soon since Tom is busy filming the 8th Mission Impossible so he has his hands full with that.  Read More

Comment: Tammy has carved quite the lucrative career out of sequels. How many more MI movies do we need? Well, if you ask him at least another 19 more. I see him doing the same thing with the Top Gun franchise. It's an easy way for the Paramount and Tom to make money since it doesn't require much of a plot / story line...a chimp can crank out the story.

♦ Ferrara company announced they're discontinuing Fruit Stripes gum and Super Bubble. Noooo, they were my go-to gums growing up. I liked Fruit Stripes because the flavor in the first few chews was so intense but it didn't last.  The company said they halted production of both brands and remaining inventories will be carried by retailers until it's all gone.  Fruit Stripes was introduced in 1960 featuring Yipes, the zebra mascot. Super Bubble was introduced in 1946 and it was the first individually wrapped bubble gum. And, let me tell you, you could blow some big bubbles with it. The reason both products are being discontinued is lack of demand and today's youth think they products are uncool.  Kids today...they don't know what they're missing.  Read More

 Comment: A pack of Fruit Stripes gum contained 5 flavors: Wet n' Wild Melon, Lemon, Cherry, Orange, and Peach. My favorite was Cherry. I sometimes would chew different flavors at the same time and concoct my own combo. For example, a stick of Lemon + Orange = blast of citrus.  Super Bubble was a big part of my childhood. I used to blow HUGE bubbles and even a bubble within a bubble. That was my claim to fame in the playground. 

♦ My Pillow Guy (Govt Name: MAGA Asshole Mike Lindell) has been kicked to the curb by Fox News. According to Lindell, he's claiming that Fox News cancelled his product commercials because he hired Fox new host Lou Dobbs for a right-wing, conspiracy slinging media channel Lindell started. Fox New is saying, "hold my fly swatter" at Mike's claims.  A spokesperson for Fox News is saying that Mike has not paid his bills and that's the reason the network stopped airing the commercials.  Lindell has been in financial dire straits for the past few years. His financial situation is so bad that his attorneys quit because he hasn't paid them. Banks are refusing to loan him any money. And Amex has cut his credit. His My Pillow company is in the dumpster. Plus, Lindell is facing billion dollar lawsuits from voting software firms Dominion and Smartmatic.  These two firms are suing him to oblivion over his BS election fraud conspiracies.  Read More

Comment: For all the worshiping Lindell does of the Orange Mussolini, I find it HILARIOUS his master has turned his back on him. I cannot wait for Dominion and Smartmatic trial to begin. If Lindell takes the stand during the trial, it's a safe bet he will go on a delusional rant that will be epic.
