A very happy 4th of July to all the DWs and DWettes of\u00a0 VG\/TAH. Stay safe, have fun, and try not to do anything too foolish. Or at least don’t get caught (but you can send video, we promise it’ll stay confidential.)<\/p>\n
A little more optimistic piece is in order…I tend to do my columnns in clumps, anywhere from two to five columns at a sitting. So if some columns talk about something days old – may not have been when I wrote it. As I write this just after the IDF column (the original article was heartbreaking to me) I need some cheering up. So Happy 4th and keep this in mind today.<\/p>\n
Ft. Bliss (thank God it was named for a person or it would be one of the most misnamed Army posts in history) is hosting a celebrity today. And who better on the ultimate hot-dog grillin’ day than Joey Chestnut?<\/p>\n
Chestnut currently holds the hot dog eating world record, consuming 76 hot dogs in 10 minutes at the 2021 Nathan\u2019s competition.<\/p>\n
Officials from Major League Eating announced on June 11 that Chestnut, who ate 62 hot dogs at last year\u2019s contest, would be barred from competing in the annual competition after Chestnut signed with another hot dog brand, according to the Associated Press.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Yeah, might be a little embarrassing if the Ford spox won the Chevy contest, huh? Seeing an opportunity, the Ft. Bliss MWR sent this to Joey:<\/p>\n
