SkyMall - Hot Dog Contraption

As promised, here's my first stab at bringing your attention to the fine merchandise featured in the SkyMall catalog. What better item to feature than this innovative hot dog griller and bun warmer?

Few people eat as many hot dogs over the course of a year than I do. But OH THE DRUDGERY of making hot dogs myself at home! In a typical middle-class home like mine, I am limited to using a pot of water, the microwave, the toaster oven, or the grill. How unbearable!!

But with this new labor saver, "it's easy to make great tasting baseball franks right in your own home." Thank you!! Thank you for inventing this find product. I'm sure the amount of counter space I dedicate to it will be well worth the convenience of ballpark quality frankfurters in my home kitchen.

Do you realize that this device is perhaps the best if not the only way to "grill the perfect hot dog at home every time?" I, for one, have serious consistency issues cooking them the old fashioned way. Sometimes I get ice cold, rubbery sausages, while other times I end up with charred sticks. But NOT any more!

And talk about luxury! Warm buns!! Surely this can't be for people of my socio-economic status... Since when I am entitled to perfect hot dogs AND warm buns all in the same meal? And yet, for a mere $49.95 plus shipping even a poor chump like myself can eat like a king, 3 meals a day, every single day! Put me down for two - one for the kitchen, and one for the office!
