The Ultimate Hot Dog Eater for the past 6 years has come down with a case of the sore jaw. This really sucks as it’s almost time for the annual coney island hot dog eating contest!

Did anyone ever watch the MTV show “True Life” when they followed the lives of competitive eaters? There was one segment of Kobayashi where he says that after the contest, the hot dog smell would permeate through his skin making him smell like a hot dog for a week. crazy!

Earlier in the year, Joey Chestnut destroyed Kobayashi’s record of 54 hotdogs by eating 59 1/2 hotdogs! So I was actually somewhat looking forward to seeing both of them compete against each other. that would’ve been some entertainment there. but it doesn’t seem like it cause he’s reporting opening his jaw by a fingernail width causes him pain.

i wonder how many hot dogs i could eat. i think i did 3 one time. how about you?

Random website of the day…..

So I was told about this one site where you can go back to the old skool way of writing letters…through the post office! But paying for stamps is like “not cool” so someone came up with this craaazy idea of letting you write and send letters for FREE. So what’s the catch? After you send your letter, you’ll be presented with offers from their sponsors.

Who loves starbucks?

So my favorite drink from Starbucks is the White Mocha Frappuccino w/ whipped cream on top. Trying to be healthy, I cut out the whipped cream and noticed they had a “light” version of my drink.

I went to the Starbucks website and compared the number of calories I would be able to cut down on and I’m amazed!

Grande White Mocha Frapuccino w/ whipped cream: 450 calories

Grande White Mocha Frapuccino LIGHT w/o whipped cream: 200 calories

So if I do my math correctly, I can drink 2 of the Light and still get less calories than one! My wallet says no.

What’s your favorite Starbucks drink? Does anyone here do the grande latte, no whip, reduced milk, extra whatcamacallit, etc etc type drink?

2012 London Olympic Logo

london-olympic-logo.jpgThat is the 2012 London Olympic Logo. In my humble opinion, it’s pretty ugly. I’m not the only one it seems….

“he “iconic” logo for the 2012 London Olympics was unveiled here on Monday, but critics immediately condemned it as “hideous” and a waste of money…

“Lord Coe has described this logo as ‘ambitious, interactive and youth-friendly’. I would describe it as hideous,” he said…

“Questions need be answered as to how we have ended up in this situation. Was there an open competition to supply the designs? If so, what on earth do the rejected ones look like!

“We need to know how much money this exercise has cost, because whatever it was, it’s been a complete waste of money.”

you get the idea….what do you think? do you like the logo?

missuniverse2007.jpgNo, I didn’t watch the Miss Universe contest but since it was hosted in Mexico city and I was in Mexico this Memorial Day weekend….okay..I was just trying to find a reason to post a picture of her. hehe!

MEXICO CITY- A 20-year-old dancer from Japan was crowned Miss Universe 2007 on Monday night, marking only the second time her country has won the world beauty title.Dressed in a black, red and purple Japanese-style gown, Riyo Mori nervously grabbed the hands of first runner-up, Natalia Guimaraes of Brazil, just before the winner was announced. Then she threw her hands up and covered her mouth, overcome with emotion.But she gathered herself together enough to catch the diamond-and-pearl-studded headpiece valued at $250,000 as it slipped off her head when Miss Universe 2006 Zuleyka Rivera of Puerto Rico crowned her. Mori immediately placed it back on her head….
