2011 in review

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 1,300 times in 2011. If it were a cable car, it would take about 22 trips to carry that many people.

RI’s red hot wiener sales cool in weak economy

http://www.boston.com/news/local/rhode_island/articles/2012/01/02/ris_red_hot_wiener_sales_cool_in_weak_economy/

“Some red hot wiener makers blame fast-food restaurants that sell $1 entrees to cash-strapped customers and chains such as Subway that sell food at gas stations and convenience stores.”

IMHO,what might be another part of the cool sales, the insistence of total healthy food regiment have probably deleted hot weenies from being a part of a one’s diet heritage.  Having some weenies once and a while won’t kill ya.

When we grew up, stopping at the New York System when we had the spare change was common as we walked down broad street before we were old enough to drive.  The typical diner had the wieners (grille) located near the door, so it was a quick stop in and the wieners were quickly made and wrapped.
