Two Brothers Need Your Help

These brothers need your help this holiday season.

Say "Hi" to Tigger and Tiger.  They’re 14 years old and they were left homeless when their owner recently passed away. They’re confused, not sure why they aren’t at home and why they’re in the shelter. And they need to be adopted as a pair.

Although they’re sad and scared, Tiger, on the left, is warm and cuddly.  Tigger is warming up.  They weigh 13 and 14 lbs., respectively.  They’re neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, litter-trained, FIV-neg and FeLeuk-neg.

The adoption fee is being waived for the right INDOOR home. Please share this post to help these two handsome boys find a loving home.  The shelter is overcrowded and the need for their adoption is urgent.

The Aiken County Animal Shelter is located at 333 Wire Rd., Aiken. If you would like to arrange to meet Tiger and Tigger, send an e-mail to info@fotasaiken.org. Walk-Ins are welcome from 11am-4pm everyday except Sunday.

If there is one thing we have here in the CSRA is a lot of great places to eat.  It also seems that new ones are opening almost monthly.  Could Augusta be on the map for a McDonald's Spin-Off CosMc’s?

CosMc's first location is opening this week in Bolingbrook, Illinois.  McDonald's does have plans to open at least 10 new CosMc's. And 9 of those are in the great state of Texas.

The name caught my eye first thing. And after looking at CNBC, it seems that CosMc is one of the many McDonald's Mascots that have appeared in some of the company's advertising and art they've used in the stores.  CosMc, well, he is an alien from outer space and loves McDonald’s food.

It seems that they are going back to the original plan they had when they opened McDonald's.   Quality food and you get it fast.  At the founding of McDonald's, it was burgers, fries, soft drinks, and milkshakes.

Just like the founding of McDonald's, it's going to be simple.  The menu will include your favorite comfort foods like the Egg McMuffin and M&M McFlurries.   Hash browns, pretzel bites, doughnuts, cookies, ice-creams, and new spicy queso and avocado tomatillo sandwiches will also be on the new menu.

It seems like they may be going after Starbucks with specialty lemonades, blended drinks, and teas, with flavors such as “popping pear slush” and “tropical spiced” that can be customized with tapioca pearls, flavored syrups, and energy or vitamin C shots.

When you finally get to visit CosMc's, you'll see a smaller building than the regular McDonald's.  It will have more drive-through lanes.  You will also be able to pay for your order at the menu board where you order to speed things up.

So, could Augusta end up on the test list for the McDonald's spin-off restaurant, CosMc's?  I guess only time will tell and till then we can get our fix and one of the more than 40,000 McDonald's locations around the world.

Here is your first look at CosMc's.  Just out side of Chicago, this is the first location and is set to open this week.

You will in this video and better look at the menu.  You can still see the ice cream cone and brownie on the menu

Here you see what the drive through will look like.  You see its traffic pattern and how traffic will flow.

Here is hoow the concept came to be and the mascot that they are using to brand it after.  Going retro with the old school mascots!
