Oh man, when I saw this story this afternoon, I laughed. Twice.

Link!

So, these two old birds have been mailing this old hot dog back and fourth for 54 years. While that story is strange, the pictures are where the magic is happening.

I can hardly tell when the fingers end and the hotdog starts.

Now, I've eaten some rather foul hot dogs in my life (the top winners are Cleveland Circle cinemas in Brookline MA, 7-11 in Lewiston ME and a mystery dog from a neighbors grill) but this thing is just nasty. I'm sure these two old bats consider this training for finding a man in their age range. Strange food story quota met. (This story got me thinking that I haven't heard a good "Old Guy's Balls" joke in a while.)

On to some cool tech / Microsoft is taking over the world news. Well... maybe?
From 6.10.04
Microsoft VP Peter Moore (formerly of Sega), in a Game Industry.biz article:

Moore said that Microsoft has no intentions of following Sony and Nokia into the handheld gaming business, commenting that "we're not in that business and there are no plans to be in that business right now."
But recently there has been a flurry of new articles (are blogs news? Mine ain't even close... its more like Cracked (the poor mans MAD)) about the "Xboy". This new digital music player is suspected of being designed to compete with Apple's iPod. I guess Brier Dudley of the Seattle Times started this whole rumor and all Microsoft has done is deny it. As the old Yiddish proverb goes "He who denied it, supplied it." Well, I'm all for the Xboy (minus the aweful name.) Anyone who knows me, I'm all about convergenance, and just 5 months ago, I finally got my phone and PDA unified and as my previous post mentioned I love it. If I could only cram my iPod in there as well, I'd be happier than a pig in shit. Throw a PSP or Nintendo DS into that package, and I'm a mobile warrior, only needing to stop to power up (or juice up as I was going to type.)

Anyway, I believe I have meet the quota on all requested blog topics and I got work to do (12oz curls and a Cuban cigar.)

ciao babe.

Where'd you get the cuban? Does he taste good?

Is that your own little amnesty program?

He got the Cuban as part of a lend-lease arrangement. Jon's trying to start up a Red Sox pharm team, the Brighton Bacons. I understand the Cuban's a pitcher.

And we ALL know Jon's a catcher . . .

That dog is down right fucked up man.

I don't know what's worse, looking at the photos or looking at the photos and knowing that one of those old hags probably dipped it in her special sauce at one point.

Was that too much . . .

Why don't you make an entry laughing at all the people who have checked your site, daily for the last two weeks and got nothing in return for their loyalty?

Bah....

It only took one day shy of three weeks. Shit, ever heard the phrase, "Use it or lose it"? You're probably down to a nub.
