Explain to me what happened to Twin Peaks as we face a possible end to breastaurants<\/p>\n

\u2014 Raccoon sheriff John in Houston explains. This guy went to an Ivy League school. I trust him with this explanation:\u00a0<\/p>\n

It looks like a classic leveraged buyout scenario. The PE guys bought the company with a lot of debt way back 25 years ago, issued a lot more debt and expanded their asses off and opened a lot of new restaurants over the last 20 years and started generating a lot of cash, then used that cash to back an IPO.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Then the IPO happened about a year ago and the PE guys sold all of their shares and got out with a profit and the business itself was left with a lot of debt that\u00a0it couldn’t service when the restaurants started seeing less traffic. Restaurants are notoriously risky because all of its business is entirely discretionary and subject to almost perfect competition. If people just decide to quit showing up, you are going out of business quickly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The PE guys made money because they got in the middle of the cash flows early and then they sold out at the IPO and left the new shareholders holding the bag when the restaurant couldn’t pay the\u00a0debt.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I went to a Twin Peaks just once in my life, about 15 years ago when a friend of mine suggested we meet there for\u00a0a drink. I had no idea what it was. Turned out to be a bunch of skanky girls (much more skanky than Hooters) serving mediocre bar food to loud thugs and gangsters. Not my kind of place and I never went back. Let’s put it this way, I was not at all surprised to learn of the biker gang shootout when it happened at the Waco location ten years ago. TP’s seemed like the place where something like that would happen.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I’m not surprised they finally went bankrupt, but I am surprised it took this long.<\/p>\n

Kinsey:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

It turns out \u2018Sheriff\u2019 John isn’t alone when it comes to not visiting breastaurants very often.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Even with a small sample size, this poll isn’t great for the industry. I will say, I stopped into the Indy Hoots with my neighbor Bally while we were down there for the Big Ten title game. The night before the game, the place was empty. The next day, Saturday, there was a two-hour wait, probably more, for a table on gameday. Completely packed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

That was the first time I’d been in a Hoots since 2022 or 2023 when I was in the downtown Charlotte location. It was\u2026not great. But, we’d been drinking. It was fine for us after a long day and made sense since it was across the street from the hotel.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Florida, we’re thinking about you this morning<\/p>\n

Remember, the NHL is playing its Stadium Series event on Sunday in Tampa. It’s supposed to be 45 and sunny for the game. That’s right, 45 degrees. Sunday’s low is supposed to be 33. The Canadian hockey gods couldn’t have dialed this up any better if they tried.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The last official snowfall in Tampa came on January 19, 1977. Just 0.2 inches fell, but it was a historic snowfall.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u2014 Floridian Bob K. emails:\u00a0<\/p>\n

Just chiming in on the Florida cold.<\/p>\n

You have to love the southern way of thinking, me, Pittsburgh native but Florida boy for 30 years.\u00a0 I explained last week to my wife that when growing up in Pittsburgh, we had to start our cars and let them warm up to defrost and get them warm on the freezing mornings.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

So yesterday morning, I go out to leave and my suburban is running.\u00a0 I go back into the house and say to my wife, ” Honey, do you know why the suburban is running,” she says, yes, I started it for you because you \u00a0know you said when it is cold you needed to warm up your car, I laugh and say baby, that is when it was like 0 to -5 degrees not 35 degrees lol. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

She gave me that look and said, I am a Florida girl, 35 degrees is freezing and you can start your own darn car from now on, lol,<\/p>\n

Speaking of cold, the readers in Crosby, North Dakota would like to tell you about real cold<\/p>\n

\u2014 Dillon, a teacher up there in the heartland of the United States where they keep this country churning, writes:\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hey Joe, just figured I’d chime in on the caps since it’s been awhile.\u00a0 I understand the south and most of the rest of the country isn’t prepared for the cold, but it can be laughable for us in the tundra.\u00a0 We are up to a (no joke) balmy 12 degrees today.\u00a0 The last week we saw highs of -13, -17, -22, -11, -4<\/strong> with multiple lows nearing -30 and that is not accounting for the wind which we have had plenty of lately.\u00a0 The positive temps\u00a0 seem like a heatwave after the last week.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Touching on the mini helmets, I was always into the mini helmets as a kid constantly being a customer of the quarter machines at restaurants hoping for a helmet that I didn’t have.\u00a0 This has carried over into the next size up helmets, as I have about 40 helmets lining my classroom as a small collection.\u00a0 The kids seem to get a kick out of finding different helmets that their dad’s watch, etc.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It’s been quieter on the meat front from me as I draw the line of outdoor grilling at -20, but I have been forced to learn how to cook indoors somewhat.\u00a0 I’m hoping to get some grilling in towards the end of the week\/weekend as temps are in the positives.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"\/Western New Yorker tells the Floridians to hang in there as this massive snow storm rolls in<\/p>\n

\u2014 Guy G. knows snow, he knows industrial leaf blowers and how to heat a house in the dead of winter:\u00a0<\/p>\n

I was thinking about all the Southerners, and their winter experience this morning. I was in Dallas last week, where everyone was freaking out about the impending doom.<\/p>\n

I flew back into Buffalo, Friday, to abundant sunshine at the airport, to drive home\u2026directly into a blizzard. By the time I got to around 5 miles from home, I couldn\u2019t see the next power line pole. Roads covered, whiteout conditions\u2026typical (southtowns of) Buffalo weather.<\/p>\n

Today, as I finally get around to seeing the accidents, and other weather related chaos, it reminded me of when we brought our daughter home for the first time, in late 2019. The hospital rushed our paperwork, so that we could get out, and try to avoid the storm. It didn\u2019t work. About halfway home, we got off of the highway, to take the back roads. Slower, but at least wouldn\u2019t end up in the median.<\/p>\n

We got to the last town before our house, where our favorite ice cream shop is. She wondered if it would be open, in the storm. (In case you didn\u2019t know, when the wife asks about a spot you\u2019re nearing, just stop there.) Of course they were. It\u2019s Buffalo. We don\u2019t close because of a blizzard!<\/p>\n

As true northerners, we\u2019ll keep pushing through. Doing hard things in the middle of nowhere, and getting an ice cream sundae during blizzards. Currently have 4\u2019 of snow in the yard, and now ice cream sounds like a good idea. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Will Screencaps readers get pink eye if they watch the YouTube show on the toilet?<\/p>\n

\u2014 Phil S. in Florida says:\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hey Joe, just got caught up on the YouTube show. 2 takeaways. 1: Keep it up, it\u2019s early but I see something here. 2: Stop telling people to watch on the toilet! That\u2019s how you get pink eye. Nothing that happens in the bathroom should be spread onto your phone. I used to be a chef and I see bacteria everywhere. No one cleans their phones. If you\u2019re doing something you wash your hands after completing, you shouldn\u2019t be handling your phone during it.<\/p>\n

Now as a sports fan and a person with common sense, with this Greenland stuff unfolding, and watching the woke state of Minnesota (whose state bird, flower, and food are all protest) protesting yet again, I propose a 3 team trade. We get Greenland since it\u2019s gonna happen anyways, Canada takes Minnesota off our hands, and Denmark gets all the beaver pelts and maple syrup they want. Maybe Canada can sweeten the deal for Denmark if we toss Oregon their way too. No one\u2019s missing Portland.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Karl in Michigan wants you to see the venison backstrap he cooked up:\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"\/\"\"\/I can’t stop laughing at Dick Durbin walking out onto the Senate floor with the AI image of the headless ICE agent<\/p>\n

And to think that someone on his staff let him walk out on that floor with a massive poster of the headless agent. This isn’t some MAGA gotcha moment. Dick’s YouTube account has this video proudly posted right this minute. Go look.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here we go again<\/p>\n

Dollar-fifty beers in Spain (actually $1.79 based on current exchange rates)<\/p>\n

\u2014 Mike T. says these big boys are \u20ac1.50 each at 100 Montaditos bar in Rincon de La Victoria:\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"\/\"\"\/<\/p>\n

Kinsey:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Let this serve as a big wakeup call for those of you who think the Ts are blowing through their retirement money in Spain. They’re suckin’ down $1.79 beers and walking like 25k steps per day between bars.\u00a0<\/p>\n

1 Euro is $1.19 USD right now.\u00a0<\/p>\n

As for those Cheetos things on the bar signage, Mike T. found them on TikTok:\u00a0<\/p>\n

And here’s the beer section at the grocery store:\u00a0<\/p>\n

That is it. It’s cold everywhere. The kids are finally back to school after seven days. The house will be quiet again. It’s just Mrs. Screencaps and the dogs. Life rolls on.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Go have an incredible day. Live it up at work or in retirement.\u00a0<\/p>\n
