Fourth of July Shocker .... Kobayashi Goes Down !!


Break Out the Alka-Seltzer....... Kobayashi Tops His Own Record by Eating 63 Dogs....... And Still Loses !!

We're proud to report that the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest Champ is once again an American. Joey Chestnut, a college student from California, munched and contorted his way through 66 hot dogs and buns in a mere 12 minutes!!

If you have never seen this event before, it must be experienced. It was on ESPN today, and it had all the pageantry and tension of the Super Bowl. Watching it is like reading the stock ticker as Chestnut and Kobayashi quickly showed them to be the ones to beat. In the last minute, the two were literally neck and neck, but Kobayashi nearly puked up a mouthful of the garlicky dogs, and at the end, it was clear that Chestnut had won.

Joey Chestnut............... A true American Hero !

The picture, though, has a feel of Clyburn's re-election. Surely there is one with faith that will take up the cause, lest a Libertarian put the 6th to shame.

I remember back in the day I was the only card carrying Libertarian in the 6th. Then I got real and joined the GOP.
