Where’s The Beef?

Just got this email from Administration:

If you plan to attend the employee BBQ and haven’t responded, please do so by tomorrow at 4:30pm so we have a count for food. Please bring your $5 to [redacted] or I by Wednesday June [redacted].  We will have beef, turkey and veggie hot dogs to choose from.

I notice the hot-dog menu is Pork-Free, no doubt in sensitivity to our Jewish and Muslim staff.  They’re having trouble getting turnout from everybody else.  Wonder why?

You mean people pay attention to the meat that’s in hot dogs?

  2. “Please bring your $5 to [redacted]”

    Sounds like a River City Iowa picnic:

    What the heck you’re welcome.
    Join us at the picnic.
    You can eat your fill of all the food you bring yourself.

  3. “One hot dog without so much rat in it later”

    And I like beef dogs like Hebrew National–a touch oily for every day, but they’re good. But I don’t know that Hebrew Nationals would be acceptable by today’s politically correct.

  4. And speaking as someone who loves the South, hot dogs are many things, but they ain’t BBQ. Grilled, yes, but it would be fascinating to see what happens to the average dog after 12 or more hours at 230F. Or disgusting.

  5. Eat more pork! The Bible says it is okey-dokey.

    Acts 11:
    [5] I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me:
    [6] Upon the which when I had fastened mine eyes, I considered, and saw fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.
    [7] And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat.
    [8] But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean hath at any time entered into my mouth.
    [9] But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common.
