Beverage Digest made news with this month's soft drink sales report Tuesday. They reported that Dr. Pepper has surpassed Pepsi as the second-best selling soft drink in America. Not only is Dr. Pepper now more popular than Pepsi, it's considered more of a doctor than Anthony Fauci or Jill Biden.

Dr. Fauci was grilled by the House Select Corona Virus Committee Monday and the questions and answers grew more heated and personal by the hour. There were a lot of egos in that committee room.

Taylor Swift fans protested outside her venues in Europe holding up signs demanding that she support Palestine. I do wish Taylor well, but I finally made myself listen to a few of her songs and it's all reverb and relentless self-pity. Taylor Swift could sing at my funeral and I would get up and leave.
