"Dogecoin jumps after Elon Musk replaces Twitter bird with Shiba Inu"

York(CNN)Twitter's traditional bird icon was booted and replaced with an image of a Shiba Inu, an apparent nod to dogecoin, the joke cryptocurrency that CEO Elon Musk is being sued over.

Musk addressed the change Monday afternoon, tweeting, "as promised" above an image of a year-old conversation in which another user suggested that Musk "just buy Twitter" and "change the bird logo to a doge."

*I don't have Twitter so I can't verify this

Why doesn't MSNBC mention James Comey's big mouth right after

the Access Hollywood tape is what caused so much damage? If Comey hadn't done that the sex tape revelations would have been enough for tRump to lose 2 weeks later.

Restaurant Impossible. The Trump-burger is on the menu

for $14 too!

I started to watch a new episode of Restaurant Impossible where he re-vamped a dying diner " Leah's Korner Kafe" in Colemam, MI. I always read the current reviews on-line first. It turns out that there is something called the Trump Burger. After reading the reviews post-make over I learned that some people left this place without even ordering since they read that a "Trump Burger" was on the menu.

It describes the burger and all it comes with then at the end it says "Making America Great One Burger At A Time".

It didn't mention if it is served with one or two bottles of ketchup. That is how tRump would make over the interior, Jackson Pollock style.

Latest winter storm boosts California's astounding snowpack; drought conditions improving

https://ktla.com/weather/latest-winter-storm-boosts-californias-astounding-snowpack/

"New data shows California’s already epic snowpack, not surprisingly, has improved even more thanks to last week’s winter storm that buried the Sierra Nevada mountain range under several additional feet of snow."

"Thanks to California’s extraordinarily wet and snowy winter, several regions of the Golden State including the Central Coast and Central Sierra, are no longer considered to be in a drought."

"Water managers, however, caution that no single wet winter could erase the challenges caused by years of extreme drought."

“While winter storms have helped the snowpack and reservoirs, groundwater basins are much slower to recover. Many rural areas are still experiencing water supply challenges, especially communities that rely on groundwater supplies which have been depleted due to prolonged drought,” said Jeanine Jones, Interstate Resources Manager at DWR.
