I'm a baby
Well, despite all my posturing and trash-talking, the hot dog eating contest did not occur today. A number of factors entered into the decision:
1 - I, and my lovely opponent Christy, were suffering from colds and allergies, respectively. To attempt to stuff hot dogs down our throats without all our breathing capacity might be called... unwise.
2 - In addition to that, we were all hung over. Three straight days of marathon drinking sessions will have that effect on a person. While somebody like Mickey Mantle might have been able to function while suffering from a major hangover, we are not like The Mick.
3 - Lack of time. A certain friend and reader of this website had to go the airport at 11, and we simply had not enough time to squeeze in the contest.
4 - Lack of planning. I didn't really have any hot dogs in the house, nor did I have a way to cook them. There weren't any buns either. Oops.
But mark my words. We will have this contest soon. And, I *will* kick Christy's ass back to wherever it is such a sweet ass came from.

You forgot reason #5... you wimped out. We all know I'm more man than you. A certain exgf of yours knows of the contest and contends that she too could kick your ass. But you're still a man in my eyes....

:-) yep, I think Christy could totally take you if/when this hot dog eating contest happens.

I can't believe that your girlfriend drunk dialed me. The message was so blurry that I couldn't even start to figure out what it said. Anyways, no harm, no foul. We should have lunch sometime once I move to Chicago...only 13 days 'till the big move!

Candi.... OOOPS, sorry about drunk dialing. Tim was going thru my phone deleting people, therefore I sought revenge by going thru his phone dialing people I didn't know. Good Luck moving!
