Maybe Pepto-Bismol will sponsor his training.

The only thing that's permanent is change

Hi Dirk, yes, that's the joke to which I was referring, or at least the first part. He felt lethargic after eating, ahem, 70 hot dogs, and of course he didn't want them with any extras. Maybe it was a little too subtle.

I like the Buddhist jokes though. I used to tell people I was Zen Buddhist, non-practicing, but that's a little subtle as well.

Makes my head hurt...

I think I eat 3 or 4 turkey hot dogs a year. I haven't had a REAL hot dog in over 20 years because"someone" decided they were no good for my heart disease.

Grilled turkey dogs are definitely not the bomb, no matter what you like on top of them. I have learned however that mass quantities of onions helps to kill the taste.

+1 - that would be a great endorsement. Perhaps Draino might work too.

Just a couple of beers will turn him into a sweet smelling belch machine. Poor mate if he’s got one.

Let's just sit back and digest a bit of this man's heroic career:

Hey Paul, I don't really know much about him, just decided to look for a pic and then couldn't stop. I was hoping to see a before/after picture of his stomach.

Some of these pictures might be from other years. But there are pictures of him wearing a mask, or at least trying to.

I was just looking at the belt, and it's a bizarre image, I'll guess because it just isn't capturing the detail. But it's like a Uncle Sam Grim Reaper holding a hot dog and a black drill? ray-gun? black squirt bottle too close to stars?

Anyway, I'll just leave it like that in my mind. Uncle Sam Grim Reaper holding a hot dog and a black drill. Yea Joey!
