Somehow misspelling wiener (as in hotdog) is wildly funny or popular , as is posting it over and over.

For years we have hoped to have a TVCHer in the house and the plan was that they would say the code-word "rosebud". Erika and Bunky and Janie have heard of this but the "weiner" contingent got to Janie.. BUT if you hear her say "wiener" or anyone say "rosebud" it is indeed a shoutout to TVCH.

Many hotdogs will be consumed on Thursday night. (making note to self to go to grocery for mine)

("Weiner" being most commonly a last name pronounced "Winer" or "WHY NER" (e.g., Jennifer Weiner, author of "Good in Bed" and other novels).

(the live feeds are making me feel DIZZY .. they are playing the replacement for CHICKENCAM, FOTH, LIZARDCAM, TORTOISECAM, FISHCAM of the past)

Just got home from spending WAY to much time at the lake today .... little red but much fun was had!

Ann - sorry, I didn't know that the pictures were supposed to be kept hush hush until sequester - if I had I would've kept them offline. Silly me didn't think that they would be spread all over the internet either.

Thanks for understanding! I totally blame Joely! Yeah, it's all her fault .. not mine!!

Anna - Tell Michael thank you for being so helpful in taking the pictures down. I've been to a few sites like that and they do get out of control sometimes. Usually I just blow it off ... but I get into total Mama Bear mode when my kiddos are involved, kwim?

I'm going to slink off to my corner for a bit now with a bottle of solarcane ... because I'm starting to look a lot like this ...

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary says that it can be spelled either way. I can not for the life of me figure out why there continues to be such controversy over this word and/or it's proper spelling.

I happen to naturally spell it this way, and that is the ONLY reason. It is not a FACT that some people enjoy misspelling the word (which is not misspelled according to the dictionary), it is only your theory.

As far as I can see, many of us are having an awful lot of fun running with the weiner theme. Speaking just for myself, I can do without the subtle insults.

People sure are having a lot of fun using the weiner/wiener theme, even to the point we'll all be having them for dinner on Thursday! I never knew the "word" was supposed to be "rosebud" until this year when I saw it in chat. Either word is fine by me! I'd just love to know someone is giving a shout-out to TVCH!!! Anyway, I can't wait until Thursday. I think I'll eat hamburgs on the 4th. LOL GO JANIE!!!!!!

PS - I had NO IDEA that was supposed to be FLAMES! I thought it looked like chocolate colored lava. Ewwwwwwwwww!!!

MkChic...If you really are Janelle's mom....I just want you to know, that as a 50 yr.old woman with a 25 yr. old beautiful daughter myself, I want to say just how IMPRESSED I am and have always been with Janelle's poise and maturity for a young woman her age.

I wish her all the luck again this year...I would LOVE to see her win. But even if she goes home first...it will only be because she is so well-liked by the public, and the others are jealous. (The story of her life, right?) She will have a bright future ahead of her no matter what she chooses to do.

Cayecaye, Mkchic has been verified as Janie's mom. Anyone who posts here claiming to be a celebrity or related is verified. And I agree with everything youy just said. I sure hope she's on the feeds for a long time because it makes live feed posting so much more interesting.

Anyone who hasn't seen those feeds moving yet.. just wait and it wouldn't hurt to take a small dose of dramamine.

I can help!

Wiener ist Deutsche! therefore the proper spelling is only one way. I before E. the other way is simply a slang or colloquialism.(sp)

When you speak the language you pronounce the LAST vowel in the combination. Politzei would be pronounced. Paw-let-z-eye. not Pawletz eeee


German is also spoken in Austria. Specifically VIENNA austria which just happens to be "WIEN" in it's own language.

Wiener-schnitzel means "from Vienna- a cutlet"

and for anyone who doesnt want to believe me...a link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_dog

Wieners and Frankfurters are basically the same thing. Frankfurters supposedly originated from Frankfurt Germany.

And Weiner is a name and is promouced differently.

I think my mom created a spelling/phonics freak out of me way back in the day and I never got over it.

I will have a large hot dog to celebrate the first show.

I wonder if it will be like last year when the very first competition put half of the house on PBJ.. which I realize will be some other diet restriction this year?

LOL! I still think there is a conspiracy in hot dog world to convince that little guy that he'll lose weight by dancing in that bun. Those little beady eyes crack me up!

Ann - we headed west to Bemidji to visit my family, watch the parade (no Olympian curlers were in it though ), ride some rides at the carnival, and play at the beach with the kids. We haven't had that much fun in a very long time! It was definately a perfect beach day!

My 7 year old is with Grandpa (he works for ISD 318) today tubing on Prairie Lake .. then they'll head over here for fireworks later!

Almost as busy as Christmas around here! Definately love Minnesota ... missed it like crazy when I was living in Dallas - dang man made lake

Oh yeah ... YAY JANIE! I'm totally on feed watch now ...
