one dollar hot dogs (from brad)

one dollar hot dogs

welcome !

If you're hungry for a hotdog, you're in luck. For only $1, I will cook you a hot dog and mail it to you.

Just PayPal me a buck, and I will personally cook you a delicious hotdog, and then ship it out to you!

I'm really good at making hot dogs, so you may even want to buy a few! Generally speaking, I throw them on the Foreman Grill, to give them a nice even cook. But if I have a lot to cook, I might put them on the regular grill outside. I can boil them, or cook them on an electric griddle, by special request only. I suppose I could even microwave them if you want.

If you buy 5, I'll throw one in for free, and send you 6 hotdogs.

Now, because your hot dog may get cold during shipment, I also include instructions to re-heat your hot dog, at no additional charge.

They make great prank gifts, so if you need a joke gift for a friend, a white elephant exchange, or just want to play a prank on someone, order them a hotdog or two (definitely add the Deluxe Condiment Pack as well, which is the second PayPal button) and I'll totally mail it to them...I will even include a personalized message of your choice. Just type it into the "Special Instructions" section on the PayPal checkout.

Don't forget about our Condiment Collection! A great upgrade for your hot dog, this package adds a ketchup packet, mustard packet, and now includes a relish packet as well!

*warning: fries, cheese, and onions are not included. just the hot dog.

Sadly, I would actually order these.

ready for the road?

new spoked wheels!

So, I used my tax return to buy myself a new hybrid bike! I'm very excited about being able to keep up when we go on group rides (although the whining about my butt and legs hurting will not decrease at all). Check out my new ride.

And ALWAYS remember

top ten things i learned from "american idol" by sanjaya malakar (on letterman)

			The camera adds ten pounds to your mohawk
			Work hard and make sacrifices, you can finish in 7th place
			It's very important to "keep it real, dawg."
			I should have gone for the Immunity Idol -- oh wait, that's "Survivor"
			On-camera Simon is a bit nasty, but off-camera, he's a total jerk
			Voting for yourself 100 times an hour causes some wicked carpal tunnel
			When you forget the words, just do this (Sanjaya belts out, "OHHHHHHH")
			Honestly, I thought I was auditioning for "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?"
			Nothing
			America loves performers with bad hair -- right, Dave?

why is it called riverdance?

as asked by one of my faithful loyal readers

Answer 1)
Because it is based on the life of a river. It begins quietly, with the Cloudsong sung by the choir, then flows as a stream, represented by the soft shoe Dance of the Riverwoman, meeting and awakening the land, represented by the hard shoe solo of Earthrise, before growing and
growing until it throws itself into the sea (Riverdance).

Answer 2)
The reason it's called "riverdance" is because when the dancers reach their top speed, they tend to "sweat rivers".

Answer 3)
Because, back in the potato famine, the Irish people would go down to the river and stomp their feet to get the potato's to rise to the surface from the bottom of the river.

Okay, I made one of those up.

earth day

Today is earth day and here are the top 10 things you can do to help the environment, from the Earth Day Canada website.

1) Park It

Leave your car at home for a day (or a week or a month) and try walking or biking. If work is too far away to walk, take public transit or carpool. One city bus eliminates the emissions of 40 cars.

2) Shut Down
Turn off the lights, the computer and the TV when they are not in use. Using only highly efficient and money saving appliances can reduce the electricity consumption of an average household to one tenth of the US average.

3) Where's The Beef?
Try eating meat-free at least one day a week.
A meat-based diet requires seven times more land than a plant-based diet. Livestock production is responsible for more climate change gasses than all the motor vehicles in the world.

4) Eat It
Choose foods produced organically, locally and in season.
Support your regional farmers & farming industry: buying locally and in season is better for the environment than buying foods that have been shipped hundreds of kilometers to your local market.

5) Let It Rot
Put a composter in your backyard or use your green bin to reduce household waste.
Composting organics has two key benefits: it reduces the amount of waste going to landfills and when added to your garden, helps nourish soil and plants.

6) Don't Be Idle
Turn off your car's engine if stopped for more than 10 seconds.
If every driver of a light duty vehicle avoided idling by five minutes a day, collectively, we would save 1.8 million litres of fuel per day, almost 4500 tonnes of GHG emissions, and $1.7 million in fuel costs each day (assuming fuel costs are $0.95/L).

7) Keep Your Eye On The Temp
Set your thermostat above room temperature in the summer and below room temperature in the winter. For each degree you adjust, you can save five per cent on your utility bill and one per cent on your energy use.

8) Bright Ideas
Replace incandescent light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs (CFLs). A CFL uses only 25 per cent as much energy as an incandescent bulb and lasts 10 times longer.

9) Don't Dump It - Blue Box It!
The simple act of recycling has more impact on the environment that the average Canadian thinks. The amount of wood and paper North Americans throw away each year is enough to heat five million homes for 200 years.

10) Tell Someone
This is a great opportunity to brag. Tell someone what you’re doing to make the world a better place. Support the cause. Encourage them to get involved too!

riverdance

I bought my mom two tickets to Riverdance for her birthday, and today we went to the afternoon show at Shea's. It was fantastic, I almost wanted to get out of my seat and join them, but being that the people in the audience paid to see the professionals and not myself, I stayed put. It got me to thinking that I wish I could dance like that, with lightening fast footwork and such grace. Much to my surprise, the show also consisted of beautiful vocals, wonderful instrumentals and many more types of dance besides the typical Irish fare you would think. I would definitely recommend treating yourself to a production of Riverdance, if the opportunity arises.

As I was watching the show, I was also reminded of summers gone by spent on the court playing a little game we invented called Riverdance tennis. Yes, it's just as you would imagine it to be, only so much better. I can't wait to break out my irish tapping shoes and give the beat down to my friend Theresa this summer. And to any others who would like to challenge me in a game of Riverdance tennis, it would be my pleasure to do a jig on your face Michael Flatley style.

that's why he's my boy

Crosby played with broken foot from mid-March on:

PITTSBURGH (AP) -- NHL scoring champion played the final 2 1/2 weeks of the regular season and the playoffs with a broken left foot, an injury the Pittsburgh Penguins star didn't disclose until Saturday.

Crosby revealed the injury when he explained why he won't play in the world championships in Moscow. Crosby was expected to join Team Canada for the second year in a row after Pittsburgh was eliminated by Ottawa in the first round of the NHL playoffs.

Crosby believes he broke a bone in the foot while blocking a shot March 16 against Montreal, but he didn't miss any games. He had five goals and nine assists in his final 11 regular season games and three goals and two assists in five playoff games.

"The first two weeks were pretty sore," Crosby said as the Penguins players assembled Saturday before breaking for the summer. "After a couple of weeks, it starts to heal and it got a little better after that. It just needs time. ... After a couple of weeks, it didn't have any effect."

The game after he was hurt, Crosby had a goal and an assist against Ottawa on March 18. Despite getting hurt, the 19-year-old Crosby became the youngest player to win the NHL scoring title with 120 points.

Crosby is disappointed he won't play in the world championships, where he was the leading scorer last year with eight goals and eight assists in nine games."It would have been a huge thrill to play for Team Canada," he said.

He's also my boy because of this. Ooooh baby!

deep thoughts, by jack handy

here are some of my favourites:

Dad always thought laughter was the best medicine, which I guess is why several of us died of tuberculosis.

A good way to threaten somebody is to light a stick of dynamite. Then you call the guy and hold the burning fuse up to the phone. "Hear that?" you say. "That's dynamite, baby."

One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. "Oh, no," I said. "Disneyland burned down." He cried and cried, but I think that deep down, he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.

I bet when the neanderthal kids would make a snowman, someone would always end up saying, "Don't forget the thick, heavy brows." Then they would all get embarrassed because they remembered they had the big hunky brows too, and they'd get mad and eat the snowman

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean ? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

I hope if dogs ever take over the world, and they chose a king, they don't just go by size, because I bet there are some Chihuahuas with some good ideas.

bet the main reason the police keep people away from a plane crash is they don't want anybody walking in and lying down in the crash stuff, then, when somebody comes up, act like they just woke up and go, "What was THAT?!"

The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face.

to be continued...

seriously

yes folks

I've so run out of things to blog about that I posted the same Sanjaya crap twice. Oopsies. Instead of deleting one, I'll leave it there to make it look like I've been doing something.

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow: You've no one but the Devil's lawyer to blame for this androgynous American Idol stowaway, who, despite being detested by the judges, somehow remains in the hunt for the show's coveted prize as this year's top 40 footnote. We stopped watching after the auditions (the only digestible part of the show), but it's our understanding that we have Sanjina to thank for the "ponyhawk," a hair-novation destined to tickle your underarm as you noogie hordes of copycat hipsters.

and because I missed it, last weeks hair update:


looking very sexy for latin week.

my friend Kelly recently introduced me to Facebook. Facebook is, according to their website, a social utility that connects you with the people around you. Facebook is made up of many networks, each based around a workplace, region, high school or college.
You can use Facebook to:
share information with people you know
see what's going on with your friends
look up people around you
I think Facebook is a fantastic way to meet up with old friends who you haven't seen for years. I actually connected with a really great friend from elementary school who I hadn't seen in close to 15 years and who I always wondered about. It's wonderful to be able to catch up on old times, and to hopefully reconnect and make some new memories together.
But be warned, Facebook will take from you countless hours of your life that you'll never get back. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

sadie turns 4!

I'd like to take a moment to wish my feline friend a very happy 4th birthday! Even though sometimes you're a jerk, we still love you and we're glad we rescued you from the Becks shed. I hope you enjoyed your chicken flavoured fancy feast birthday gift.

anna nicoles baby daddy

Nassau, Bahamas - DNA analysis has proven that former Anna Nicole Smith boyfriend Larry Birkhead is the father of her infant daughter, an expert in genetic evidence said Tuesday following a closed court hearing in a legal battle for custody of the girl.

Dr. Michael Baird, who analyzed the results of a March 21 DNA test, announced the results outside the court. "Essentially, he's the biological father," Baird told reporters.

A jubilant Birkhead said "My baby's going to be coming home pretty soon."

i almost forgot

the weekly Sanjaya hair update. How could I. This past performance he went for the slick look, and I do believe he may have gave those luscious locks a little snip. Can't wait to see what he has on tap this week!

take a whiff, we're the pOOp

  tigers

by the closest margin of victory ever seen in the Wainfleet Fantasy Hockey League, team pOOp took the Stanley Cup! Winning by just 1 goal, pOOp was given a run for their money by Sugar Ray Emery but, in the end, they just weren't strong enough for the machine that is the pOOp.
The management at team pOOp would now like to take this time to thank the players who played so tirelessly the entire season, who took the hits and gave them back, who hit the top corner and the 5 hole, and who made those awesome gloves saves and blocker stops!
To Jarome Iginla, our leading scorer, you are fabulous! Evgeni Malkin, I'm glad we went out on a limb and trusted our instincts that you would be an awesomely high scoring rookie. To the Sedin twins, I'm sorry we tried to ship you out at the beginning of the season, but I'm glad nobody wanted you (although Lecavalier and St Louis would have been awesome to have) To Wade Redden, I believed in you all season because I love you, but you really stunk it up this year. To Ryan Smyth, you were doing so well until you chose to be traded to the Islanders. And then look what you did, you little jerk. You beat the Devils and now the Leafs are out of the play-offs. You make pOOp mad.
Roberto Luongo, you sir, are a pleasure to have as a goalie. Congratulations on your fantastic record breaking season. Cam Ward, eh, you did alright.
In conclusion, I had a really great time playing fantasy hockey this year, I don't know what I'm going to do in the off season not having a team to set :(
Thank you to all my fellow Wainfleet Fantasy Leaguers. Mike, I'm happy I beat you, really, this is an amazing and glorious feeling. I feel like the queen of the fantasy hockey world. I'm not going to comfort you when you cry yourself to sleep tonight, but maybe tomorrow night I will. Damien, our little protege, you make your Aunt Karrie proud! Mark, it was a pleasure beating you. Steve and Chris, I'm sorry you guys came in 5th and 7th place respectively, but that's what you get for trying to play a Canadian game. Chris, thank you for setting your team. And finally to T-17, you suck. Seriously, thanks for not playing ever and stealing my Sidney. I hate you.

aaaaand i'm spent

seriously, I've run out of things to blog about. I've finished the internet and I'm done. Closing down shop. No, not really, but this blogging thing is a lot harder than one would expect. Hopefully, I'll find something soon to write about, that I'll be overcome by some stroke of inspiration. I give props to all the bloggers out there that update everyday, sometimes several times a day. You are good, and perhaps need to get out of the house more.
And to all the hecklers who yell at me whenever I see them about how I haven't updated my blog in three days, I'd like to see you write a blog. Okay, there's only one heckler, and you know who you are.
Mr Souvlaki Nazi. I challenge you to a blog-off.

cute or creepy, you be the judge
