Kalaroka Shark Media. Is a taco
a sandwich. I want you to ponder
2
00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:15.519
that I will come back to it. Hello, I'm Johnny Mack with five
3
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:18.359
good news stories. All right,
it is a taco sandwich. You think
4
00:00:18.359 --> 00:00:21.839
about that, well, I'll tell
you about how I've had it with these
5
00:00:22.120 --> 00:00:28.679
snakes on this train. The Eastapan
Railroad Company set about twenty seven hundred passengers
6
00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:33.719
experience delays when a snake was spotted
on a commuter train. That's right.
7
00:00:33.799 --> 00:00:38.159
Officials were told there's a snake in
car number eight here on this eleven car
8
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:43.600
train. The train was stopped at
Kamagome station. Passengers were evacuated so staff
9
00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:47.560
could search for the snake. The
snake wasn't located, though, and the
10
00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:51.759
train was returned to service after about
fifteen minutes. But they kept the passengers
11
00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:54.640
out of car number eight because there
might be a snake in it. I
12
00:00:54.679 --> 00:00:57.359
guess they weren't too worried if they
put the train back in the service.
13
00:00:57.399 --> 00:01:02.479
Anyway, it made its way to
the maintenance center Shinagawa. Ward they searched,
14
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:06.560
an employee found the eight inch snake
hiding under a seat in the car.
15
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:10.400
The snake was turned over to police. Police, who were apparently snake
16
00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:15.760
experts in Japan, identified it as
a young, non venomous Japanese rat snake.
17
00:01:15.239 --> 00:01:19.120
The snake was released in the wild, where presumably it will make its
18
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:23.439
way back to a train station and
interrupt your commute yet again. Firefighters in
19
00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:26.719
Minnesota had to use a supersized ladder
truck. That truck known as the Tower.
20
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:33.000
Why a cockatil had escaped from her
owner and became stranded. Nope,
21
00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:36.920
you're thinking tree. I was thinking
tree. Nope, on a hospital window
22
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:42.000
ledge. The Dulu Fire Department set
on social media that Nina the cockatiel had
23
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:46.319
escaped and was on a six story
window ledge at Saint Luke's Hospital. The
24
00:01:46.319 --> 00:01:51.319
firefighters arrived with Tower one, a
truck which has a one hundred foot ladder
25
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:55.400
in bucket. They went up to
rescue Nina the cockatiel. The firefighters also
26
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:59.280
said thank you to Saint Luke's security
for the assist. The cockatiel was brought
27
00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:04.560
down safely and reunited with her owner. Shocking news, Messi has retired.
28
00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:07.359
No, not Lionel Messi, the
soccer guy. By the way, we
29
00:02:07.400 --> 00:02:09.879
have a whole podcast about Lionel Messi
called the Messi effect. It's not that
30
00:02:09.919 --> 00:02:15.000
guy. This Messi is an eight
year old Labrador retriever who was working for
31
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:19.240
the TSA. When he was working
for the TSA, Messi would sniff for
32
00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:23.919
traces of explosives. In his free
time, he enjoyed watching planes and playing
33
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.199
on the grass and maybe doing a
little fetch action with a tennis ball.
34
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.759
They threw him a surprise party,
and I guess they did some sort of
35
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:35.879
explosives thing. I'll read verbade him. The event took place in a large
36
00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:38.240
room where a training aid was concealed. Messi and Peter searched the room.
37
00:02:38.240 --> 00:02:44.319
When Messi successfully hit on the device, Messi was shared with tennis balls tossed
38
00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:46.159
by the other canine handlers. Messi
thought that was a lot of fun.
39
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:51.439
The official end of his duties was
marked by the removal of a patch from
40
00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:54.919
his harness. That patch said do
not pet. Now you can pet him,
41
00:02:54.199 --> 00:03:00.479
and by golly everyone did. Messi
now in retirement, will lived with
42
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:04.840
his handler Peter nice Hey. Good
news. Remember like forty years ago some
43
00:03:05.039 --> 00:03:08.719
jerk had stolen the weather vane from
the railway station here in Vermont. Yeah,
44
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:12.360
I remember when that happened. Well, that was annoying. While the
45
00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:16.680
Vermont Agency of Transportation is announced it's
back. Judith, a spokesperson, said,
46
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:21.960
we're delighted to see this valuable historic
artifact and beautiful piece of art returned
47
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:25.919
to its home here in Vermont.
It's a nineteen ten weather vane made by
48
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:30.759
Wa Snow Iron Works, Inc.
It sat on top of White River Junction
49
00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:36.039
Station in Hartford before it was stolen
in nineteen eighty three. The weather vein
50
00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:39.680
is of a steam locomotive and coal
tender. Forty years later, it showed
51
00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:45.159
up at an auction at Southeby's.
But the Southeby's folks, they've got a
52
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:47.919
database of stuff that's been stolen,
and they confirmed the piece was the stolen
53
00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:52.560
weather veane, so the auction house
pulled it from sale. Southeby's even paid
54
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:55.360
the twenty three hundred dollars to ship
the weather vane back to Vermont. They're
55
00:03:55.400 --> 00:03:59.360
trying to figure out right now a
good location to put the weather veine so
56
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:04.360
that it might be enjoyed once more
and presumably not stolen. Do you remember
57
00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:10.400
my question is a taco a sandwich? Well, an Indiana judge has resolved
58
00:04:10.439 --> 00:04:16.000
this. The judge has ruled the
tacos and burritos are indeed Mexican style sandwiches.
59
00:04:16.040 --> 00:04:18.879
That's right. You see, there
was this strip mall and there was
60
00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:21.120
one of those deals where, like, you know, you can't have like
61
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:26.560
nine sandwich shops in a row.
The agreement allowed for the opening of made
62
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:31.160
to order sandwich restaurants like Subway and
Jimmy John's. Those were as specific examples
63
00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:36.240
of made to order sandwich shops,
but barred traditional fast food places like McDonald's,
64
00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:40.839
Arby's, and Wendy's. Martin had
struck a deal in twenty twenty two
65
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:45.160
to open a location of a place
called The Famous Taco. But they were
66
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:46.839
like, hey, hey, that
sounds kind of fast food, and the
67
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.480
argument is, no, it's not
fast food, it's a sandwich, the
68
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:56.079
judge wrote. The proposed Famous Taco
restaurant would serve made to order tacos,
69
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:59.879
burritos, and other Mexican style food, and would not have outdoor seating,
70
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:03.519
drive through service, or serve alcohol. The Core agrees that tacos and burritos
71
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:10.319
are Mexican style sandwiches, and the
commitment here does not restrict potential restaurants to
72
00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:14.439
only American cuisine style sandwiches if you
want to open your own place. The
73
00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:18.160
judge points out this also applies to
Greek Gyros, Indian non rops, or
74
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:23.480
Vietnamese buying me. And those are
your five good news stories for today.

Kalaroka Shark Media. Is a taco
a sandwich. I want you to ponder
2
00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:15.519
that I will come back to it. Hello, I'm Johnny Mack with five
3
00:00:15.720 --> 00:00:18.359
good news stories. All right,
it is a taco sandwich. You think
4
00:00:18.359 --> 00:00:21.839

Anyway, it made its way to

14
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:06.560
an employee found the eight inch snake
hiding under a seat in the car.
15
00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:10.400
The snake was turned over to police. Police, who were apparently snake

my question is a taco a sandwich? Well, an Indiana judge has resolved
58
00:04:10.439 --> 00:04:16.000
this. The judge has ruled the
tacos and burritos are indeed Mexican style sandwiches.
59
00:04:16.040 --> 00:04:18.879
That's right. You see, there
was this strip mall and there was
60
00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:21.120
one of those deals where, like, you know, you can't have like
61
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:26.560
nine sandwich shops in a row.
The agreement allowed for the opening of made
62
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:31.160
to order sandwich restaurants like Subway and
Jimmy John's. Those were as specific examples
63
00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:36.240
of made to order sandwich shops,
but barred traditional fast food places like McDonald's,
64
00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:40.839
Arby's, and Wendy's. Martin had
struck a deal in twenty twenty two
65
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:45.160
to open a location of a place
called The Famous Taco. But they were
66
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:46.839
like, hey, hey, that
sounds kind of fast food, and the
67
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:50.480
argument is, no, it's not
fast food, it's a sandwich, the
68
00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:56.079
judge wrote. The proposed Famous Taco
restaurant would serve made to order tacos,
69
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:59.879
burritos, and other Mexican style food, and would not have outdoor seating,
70
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:03.519
drive through service, or serve alcohol. The Core agrees that tacos and burritos
71
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:10.319
are Mexican style sandwiches, and the
commitment here does not restrict potential restaurants to
72
00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:14.439
only American cuisine style sandwiches if you
want to open your own place. The
73
00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:18.160
judge points out this also applies to
Greek Gyros, Indian non rops, or
74
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:23.480
Vietnamese buying me. And those are
your five good news stories for today.
