Celebrate America’s Regional Hot Dog Styles at Eating Out. [snicker]

My favorite hot dogs are Nathan’s. But, damn they’re hard to find here.

Unrelated (depending on what you put on your hot dogs): Ass Rocket.

But, does this remind you of a certain blogger?

Some of you know who I mean. If you don’t, the video is still funny. I think.

The James Beard Foundation took on the incredible task of defining American Cuisine. You can download the paper here.

I read it. It was well done, but not terribly interesting.

This is a subject that I love, and I’ve spent many an hour contemplating what might be the quintessential American dish. I usually end up with steak or hamburger as my answer.

Here are the top 5 answers from their study:

1. Hamburger or Cheeseburger
2. BBQ
3. Fried Chicken
4. Mac’ n Cheese
5. Apple Pie

Not a particularly sophisticated list, but I have no arguments.

I hate to blatantly copy. But, MJ at Friday Fishwrap posted a link that made me laugh so hard, I cried. You have to see it:

Watch the chicken and the mule on the left…

I’m begging…run your blob URL through it.

I’m just sayin’

I know you’re sick of seeing this same god damned half-scooter. The fucker won’t die, regardless of what we do to it. This was on Saturday:

Slots are still available, if you want to send your kid to culture camp.

Seems like K is always watching one of those how to kill and get away with it type shows. Yesterday, I watched one with her.

Typical sitch: Young trashy woman marries wealthy old man and has him killed. Now, she’s in jail.

S: Dumb bitch. All she had to do was blow him for a few more years.
K: [silence]
S: I mean, he was too old and fat to fuck her.
K: [crickets]
S: I know, it’s gross to us. But, she’s straight…

…another minute of silence..

(I’m not easily deterred)

S: I could probably eat an old lady for a couple million…
K: That is eee-NOUGH… [the rest was in Spanish. It wasn’t nice]

K leaves the room.

Syd chuckles. So fun.

I’m beating his ass ON THE SPOT.

Just because.

As usual, the rest are at The Oyster.

Got some new slang for a fart: Dropping Ass.

I learned this while reading an article on bar etiquette, bartenders, and what they hate about you. It’s pretty entertaining.
