Restaurant chain
Ruby Tuesday announced its plans to
destroy one of its locations next Tuesday in an explosion that will be broadcast live on its website. The explosion signals a new era for the chain, something the company has been trying to do with its slogan, "It's a brand new Tuesday."
The bomb will go off on Aug.

With
reality stars posing as fashion designers and
singers turning into restaurateurs, it's no surprise that Starbucks and Subway would expand into something other than caffeinated beverages and sandwiches. Tomorrow
Starbucks is scheduled to launch a new smoothie line. Called Vivanno Nourishing Blends, the smoothies come in two flavors: Orange Mango Banana and Chocolate Banana.

I was talking to a friend of mine and she mentioned how the dishes in chain restaurants always have ridiculous names. She thought that a breakfast dish at Baker's Square — called Chorizo Skillet — sounded a bit like a bad band name. Can't you see it now?
