No Baloney
Thursday, December 18, 2014 at 8:08PM I was shopping in a grocery store the other morning. It’s one of those chains with a decent variety of organic foods. Sometimes, I like that kind of stuff. Sometimes, some of it is rather silly. Take this, for instance. While looking at the bread selections, I happened to see organic hot dog rolls. ORGANIC HOT DOG ROLLS???!!! Huh? What do you put inside a hot dog bun? HOT DOGS!!! What’s good and healthful about hot dogs? No… please don’t tell me about vegetarian weiners because they are probably as exciting as sex with blow-up dolls. What’s the point?
It reminded me of a car I saw with my friend, Stewart, in the Sarasota area a while back. We were sitting at a red light. VROOM! VROOM! Or was it ZHHH! ZHHH!? It was a Toyota Prius Sport. SPORT???!!! We laughed. For some reason “Prius” and “Sport” go together like salt and sugar, and “organic” and “hot dog,” don’t you think? Anyway, I don’t believe we’ll be seeing any Prius Sports on the NASCAR circuit any sooner than I’ll be eating a vegetarian hot dog on an organic bun. With ketchup.

Very funny. Dave, Dave, Dave, you had me until "with ketchup". Do you say that tongue in cheek? Please say yes. Hot Dogs/mustard. NO ketchup. NO ketchup on my dogs. I never even saw that abomination until I moved from NY! OY VEY!
Merry Christmas and a Healthy Happy Prosperous New Year. Hope you get back to writing a little more often. Miss you.
Yes, Jojo, that was definitely tongue in cheek. Ketchup belongs on a hot dog like just like dipping lobster tail in melted margarine.
Sorry your comment lingered so long in moderation. I don't pay enough attention to my blog and I do need to get back into writing. I certainly don't expect any major trials in my future, so I may just continue with human interest stories, mostly short and comical like this one. When I write anything political, I get myself into hot water. I am too conservative for my liberal friends and too liberal for my conservative ones.
Thank you very much for your words of encouragement. It's just what I needed!
