The Things You See...


What can I say? I was out running yesterday and parked in front of the Peabody was an Oscar-Mayer Wienermobile and a second one had just pulled off and was driving down Union. Someone told me there had been a Mini-Cooper Wiernermobile parked there as well. Too bad I missed all of them together.

Here's an interesting bit of Wienermobile information from Wikipedia:
"The most recent version of the Wienermobile, built in 2004, has been updated to include a voice activated
GPS navigation device, an audio center with a wireless microphone, and a horn that plays the Wiener Jingle in 21 different genres from Cajun to Rap to Bossa Nova, according to American Eats. There are seven Wienermobiles in existence." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar-Mayer_Wienermobile

strange configuration....it reminds me (among others) of German Bratwurst laying on a bed of Dijon Mustard. This is the perfect sandwich to be used in the next film of King Kong.

(shall I stop... I am becoming either crazy or stupid...)

So funny! I saw one at the Target by UM this weekend, then I saw TWO on the way to work this morning, in midtown. They are everywhere!
