Oh, and I'm not much of a hick myself.

no kidding? small world eh. I graduated high school in 1998, what about you? I made it down for my 5 yr reunion a few years ago in a bar in Winfield. I know everybody are not hicks, there are actually some decent people there. I never was a fan of the town though, my mom still lives there so I usually make it back up there a few times per year.

2000 for me. I still don't mind the town, but there's no way I could actually live there anymore!

did you know Jon & Tasha Schmeidler? I still know them pretty well, I hired both of them when they moved up to Lawrence when I worked at that restaurant, I think they graduated a year before you did. There are only a few other people I keep in touch with from there but none of them still live there.

Gotta have ketchup on the dog. Mustard without ketchup is like peanut butter without jam. It may still be good but not as good as it could be.

wtf is a "hot dog barbecue?"

I definitely know the name, but wasn't friends with them or anything. I keep in touch with a core group of my friends from back then, but most of them have moved on as well.

That's when you throw hot dogs on your grill and not in your microwave.

Don't knock it unless you've tried it. It sounds gross but it's actually really good.

That's Carolina bbq. Vinegar based, and cole slaw all over it. I hate cole slaw, but loved it on hot dogs, hamburgers, and Carolina bbq. It's awesome. Wendy's had the carolina classic. It was a double burger with mustard, cole slaw, and cheese on it. fuckin outstanding!!!

I would like yo inject that it is proper to eat a chili dog with a knife and fork if it helps keep chili off your new Dale, Jr. shirt.
