Hello Everybody,

Today is the 4th of July - with hot dogs, fireworks, and parades
for everyone. Well, almost everyone. Anchorage (a city in Alaska)
had to cancel 4th of July fireworks due to an extreme heat wave,
with many Eskimos going into heat stroke (temperatures in excess
of 85 degrees Farehheit do that to those who prefer living in ice).

Of course, none of that stopped Joey "Jaws" Chestnut from winning
his 12th hot dog contest in New York, downing 71 hot dogs in 10
minutes, easily distancing himself from 17 challengers to the throne.
He would have beaten his record of 74 hot dogs (set last year) had
he not slowed down after the first 5 minutes after having eaten 45
hot dogs. Such a pace would have given him 90 hot dogs had he been
able to keep up the same pace. Fortunately, he was able to keep
everything down and claim his 12th championship without default.

On the women's side, Miki Sudo won her 6th consecutive hot dog title,
finishing with 31 hot dogs. Not a bad show, but not nearly in the same
league as the men's champion.

For all those contestants (both men and women) who came up short,
there is always next year. I am sure they are all looking forward
to it.

Yes you are. There's a new god on the block, in case you didn't know it. His name is Trump.

If you worship him all your problems will go away, wherever you live. You'll become rich, because he'll ban all those damn immigrants that's taking all our jobs, healthy because he knows the best healthcare system in the world and you'll live under the comforting blanket of safety that only He can give you thanks to his military might.

Hello Bj”rn,

Americans have three gods - The Red, The White, and The Blue.
Trump is Orange. And wants to be worshipped by all.

If you worship him all your problems will go away, wherever you live.

You'll

become rich, because he'll ban all those damn immigrants that's taking

all

our jobs, healthy because he knows the best healthcare system in the

world

and you'll live under the comforting blanket of safety that only He can give you thanks to his military might.

Even Swedes have no problem learning what Trump has taught them.
Why can't others? The sooner everybody realizes Trump is always
right, the better the whole world will be.

Americans have three gods -

* The Red
* The White

Most Americans worship all three.
Which one do you want?
You can even have them all.
Up to you ...

No crackers Mate - just bloody hundreds of grey nomads. The top end is full of them.

I wonder if they have a hunting season for the buggers...

Perhaps if all three could show up here and present their business cases to me as to why they are the one (or three) to be worshipped. Then I could make an informed decision and not have to rely on some old book of hear-say.

Although I am on the move, partaking of a road trip, I'm sure the all-seeing omnipotent can locate me for this advisory chat.

No intrinsic value. Even the womenfolk have clocked up too many miles.

Cheers,
