"Man-dog"
OK...since I'am the CREATOR of the Man-Dog....I will provide the "official" definition.....
The Man-Dog:
1) Has to be longer than the hot dog bun itself (no need to go crazy on the lenght of the dog itself...after all, not all dogs are gifted )
2) Has to be circum-sliced (by Mooch himself or anyone approved by the Mooch)
3) Ketchup IS the KEY ingredient regardless of what anybody says! (mustard and relish is simply an add on)
4) When the Man-Dog is topped with the extra "bling bling" (Fish Hunter's chili beans with some shredded cheese) then the Man-Dog has now been upgraded to "Man-Dog with extra Bling"
I'll be coming up with a book (DVD also available) on the proper techniques of prepping the Man-Dog...and I will also be doing a book-signing at the local mall the weekend after the release of the said book. If you want a free copy with my autograph, send me a PM.....and I'll see what I can do.
By the way, I'd like to add on to rule # 3 (because I'm the creator,thus, I CAN)
*Ketchup should not only be "poured" but "smeared" (with a proper knife) "into" the ridges of the man-dog.
-

The saga continues......
From my recollection, The title of, "Official Creator," of the term man-dog has been in contention with no real resolution. I believe to dub something with a "Man" prefix you must first and foremost.....actually be a man. Usage of ketchup on any food automatically lands you in kiddie status....well....that and the 6 pack of yoo-hoo you insist on drinking while consuming your dogs.
So, peter pan......how could you have possibly coined the phrase if you insist on slathering it with sauce designed for kids?
:smt003
Just for newbie clarification......I'm not claiming creator status.......I'm just an innovator.

That photo created the worst most painful nightmare to date.

BTW, I got an odd cell text msg from the Mooch Saturday afternoon. It simply said, "Hi Boys. I like mandogs. That's all."

DTI = Domestic Tranquility Index
A constantly variable account that determines "What can I get away with Today?".
It requires frequent monitoring, regular deposits, and allows occasional withdrawals.
BE AWARE: overdraft penalties can be severe!
And for the record, my anniversary is 14SEP. Because the MT backcountry hunting season opens on the 15th.
She has no problem with it, AND I HAVE NEVER FORGOTTEN AN ANNIVERSARY! (22 and counting).

Luckily the WAF love to eat fish, so no problem getting permission, lol
