I loved that episode (although I didn't have it memorized like Katie).

KG, you remind me of Wilson from Home Improvement. The guy over the fence with all the knowledge, but we never get to see your face. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has thought that.

I don't think KG is grumpy enough for the part of Mr Wilson. I tried to find a YouTube clip of the old Mr Wilson...I don't recommend it. It's been edited with lots of potty mouth language.


Ok, so some you you have already left to go look it up. I know how you are! :eek:

If they put liquid Viagra in the tank, would it be as big and shiney as the 1952 Weiner (mobile)?? Would you be able to drive it longer (pun intended)? And if you drove longer than 4 hours would need to see a doctor? (or in KG's case...call and brag to your friends!!)

Sorry (well not really) I just can't help myself!!!:rolleyes:

Better to be thought of as Wilson, or even Mr. Wilson, than Cliff Claven.

No one has ever related you to Cliff have they? I agree that even Mr Wilson would even be a better comparison than that.

My smiley needs to slow down before he bursts!
 
Well, it's a little known fact that...HEY!
 
LOL...you guys crack me up. I knew I would get a laugh from reading this post!
 
Aww... the weinermobile is shrinking....

What's crazy is when I started researching bento lunches, I kept coming across something called weiner cutters, I kid you not.

Turns out they're these little contraptions that put strategic cuts into hot dogs so when they're cooked they shrivel and turn into an intended shape... like a tulip... or an octopus or crab... yes, strange but would you expect anything less from Japan? LOL

Yeah... I bought a lot of things to start making bentos for the kids but I drew the line at the wiener cutters. LOL...
