And the hit parade just continues.....Granted 95 is damn old.

Kind of related yesterday a local DJ in Toronto Martin Streek was found dead of an apparent suicide two months removed from being let go from 102.1. He got me through a shit tonne on Sunday nights when he would do live to air from the now defunct Whiskey Saigon

Stealth edit:

I can't be the only one who thought an actual board Icon had died when they read the topic title right?

in unrelated news, 2 dozen Oscar Meyers bologna packs have been shipped with the packaging "extra tangy".

Fried bologna sandwiches are pretty epic. Not all that fond of hot dogs; they smell like sweat.

OMG; thought I'd be clever in joking that the hearse was The Weinermobile, but it actually led the funeral procession:

Quote

The 27-foot-long Oscar Mayer Wienermobile was parked Saturday near Molchan's grave at a cemetery in Merrillville, drawing smiles from dozens attending his memorial.

To be honest, if I had ever stopped to consider Oscar Mayer's life I would have assumed he had died years ago.

Oscar G. Mayer wasn't the one that founded the company, his grandfather was.

Toss a fried egg on that next time, and you'll be in business. And on your way to a heart attack, but that's a neither here nor there.

I did mine up with processed cheese, tomato, and mustard. And then fell in to a coma.

The story going around is that Streek's death was a result of his firing but no one in their right mind wants to confirm it.

And again RIP to the hot dog guy

Wow. Very sad

Although I liked Ball Park hotdogs better.

Barry Egan · « **Reply #24 on:** July 10, 2009, 03:54:48 PM »

- 2 thick slices fried bologna
- 1 slice processed cheese
- 1 fried egg
- thinly sliced tomato

RIP Oscar Mayer
