"America was? I've been keeping up with this Howard Johnson's. Yeah. And the very last Howard Johnson's outpost, the iconic orange roof. In Lake George, New York has closed for good. It was not able to reopen from Memorial Day weekend, dwindling, customer base, it just, you know, it just didn't, it just didn't happen. The pandemic was no good. And so after nearly a hundred years of having Howard Johnson restaurants died in the American landscape, it's gone for good. The end. It is. And I can remember as a very young child are stopping at Howard Johnson's here and there when my family would travel, especially when we did this one trip to Florida. They were famous for, this is before Baskin Robbins, 28 flavors of ice cream. So obviously, if there was a Howard Johnson's and you knew about it, you were traveling with your mom and dad. You would just sick of these stop there. Would please stop there and they were famous for these really quirky sort of sandwiches like not a clam roll, but a clam strip roll, which was part of the clam but not the belly of the clam so it was mostly fried bread and bread. But nonetheless, it was salty and tasty and the food was pretty good. The last one that closed because I read the article too did not really have the Howard Johnson's menu. It was a mom and pop place, but they kept the name Howard Johnson's. Yeah, they were like Holiday Inn. They had their own hotels and motels. The franchise has kind of been over for a long time, so that this last hojo in Lake George opened in 1953 and in 1953, there were well over a thousand Howard johnsons all around the country. By 2000 by 2010, bob, there were only three hojo's left, Lake George, Lake placid and Bangor Maine. In Bangor Maine, really, the appeal was, you know, you'd be driving through an area you didn't know about. You never been there before. You got to get something to eat. You're wondering, is this greasy spoon over here? Really good. Is it fantastic? Or is it awful? And we're going to get sick. Oh, there's Howard Johnson's. We can pull in there. It's not great food, but it's good food, and we know what we're going to get. It's going to be clean. And that, of course, was the model for McDonald's when they started out. Well, the Lake placid hojo closed in 2015, the Bangor hojo closed in 2016, and it was this Memorial Day 2022 that the very last Howard Johnson's shut down. And listen, it was bad because the Lake George location that had the Howard Johnson's name that just closed down, they got into trouble, the owner, or the operator rather, got in trouble for sexually harassing 15 female employees. And when they sold the restaurant changed ownership and blah blah blah blah blah, it was eventually put on the market. Right now, if you contact exit reality in Lake George, they are listing that 7500 ft² hojo restaurant for $10. You just take it over. Maybe I should buy that to go along with my $10 side boob thong bathing suit. Man, am I living? What a summer I'm having. All right, we got morons in the news next. It's bob and sherry. We've got them. Individuals. Some hope people. And sherry. You're a more. It's morons in the news. The legoland. That is a very exciting amusement park found in many states. They're in Florida, California. They're all over the Midwest. They're great for kids of all ages as they say, you see these amazing creations of Legos, and they even have one or they did. I don't know if they still do, is a little cheap made out of Legos and little tiny kids could get in that Jeep and drive it and go through a series of stop signs and different little alleyways to go. And if you did a good job, you got a prize at the end of the trip. Well, that takes us to Great Britain where they have a LEGO land also, and a 21 year old motorist. Officers attempted to pull over an Audi a 7, they observed maneuvering recklessly all over the road. However, the driver refused to pull over, and that resulted in a 35 mile chase that took them from southeast London to Kent. They were even forced to call in a police helicopter to aid in the pursuit. Eventually the pursuing officer caught up with the knucklehead in minster cat when he ran out of gas. And that was the tip of the iceberg. When officers asked for his license, this guy pulled out a fake license he received from LEGO land. He passed the theme parks driving test, which entails using a brick built electric car to navigate. I'm looking at the license plate. It says, driving license and has the picture of the guy as a little kid. LEGO land driving school, an official member. Passed. The cups took a look at that and they said, I don't think so, you don't really have a license. Let's see the insurance. You didn't have any insurance either. He was arrested on the spot, and by the way, they found a class B drugs driving with no insurance, driving with no license. He is going to be in jail until his hearing in September. How do you go that many years without a he's 21? He was probably about 6 years old when he got this thing. You've been carrying a LEGO land lice legoland child slices. Since you weren't wrong. And you're 28 wrong. It's wrong, but there's a part of me that's like, look at you hanging on to that thing for all those years. Yeah. My kid just lost the car keys three seconds after she put them on a table. I'm so impressed with you. Today's moron of the day is a two for for you. We're gonna start in Georgia and effingham county near Savannah where authorities have announced that they have successfully captured the two monkeys that have been on the loose for over a week roaming the area. The sheriff's office said that they will have more details about the monkey's escape and where they escaped from and how they were captured as soon as the Georgia department of natural resources concludes their investigation and report because it took rangers from George's DNR to come in to catch the monkeys. So we're living in very interesting times when, for a solid week, a pair of little monkeys were terrorizing residents near Savannah, Georgia. But wait, for our second part of today's moron of the day, we have another exciting story. And this one is an escaped cow in a ball places, bob, Massachusetts, a place where you don't, you don't get a lot of excellent escape live stakes, livestock stories, this one comes to us from where a Massachusetts, which you know where that is, right? Is that in the Boston area? I think it's in the Boston area. Yeah, metropolitan area. Authorities released the video and we have it for you on the bob and cherry Facebook. They said this cow showed a total disregard for the move over law while being chased down a road. The cow whose name is Rosie was first spotted on a busy road and then made its way to a wooded area of the department of wildlife management in Massachusetts said that they had no difficulty capturing Rosie and had brought her safely back home. So, you know, in a world where a lot of the news seems extra bad lately and terrifying, it's kind of nice that today's more out of the day is a lost cow and a couple of naughty monkeys. Isn't it? Doesn't.

"Because it's six thirty in the nba. That's a weird thing in the west coast and you'll just flat out. You'll miss games informed. I informed chris. Cody the tampa bay. Lightning were stanley cup champions and he goes wait. The game happened was out the clock confusing. Would you like that. I have a friend who swears. Never move back to the east coast because it's football sorts at ten one. And then he's done. I'm sure you get used to anything. Oh i feel like you would aggressively like it though. It would take you a second. Just that you're unaccustomed for brief moment and then you go back to normal. I actually thought that i was going to be that guy where i was going to move to the west coast for the sports but then once i became a soccer fan like they're important games. Start at four thirty in the morning. And that's that's not for me but if you're like just into american sports like out even dare say like go live in hawaii. I i wouldn't spend ncaa tournament in hawaii and you just wake up two games happening. It's the greatest. It's awesome if you're a baseball fan though. Like if i was. If i needed to watch every marlins game like a lot of people work still for that. I would wanna watch every marlins. It's a bad example. I mean watching any baseball game of any team. Sounds like a sentence. The judge is going. Well watch out a baseball one hundred and sixty two game season all nine innings more like baseball anymore. I can't watch game after game after game after game inning after inning. It's much. I think even when i love baseball i couldn't do that. Three or four innings. Terrible with all sports you owe is a you. You don't sit down and watch anything right and you'll watch a game you all the game on. But you're like in the kitchen you're in the garage your euros.
