I'm thrilled to hear they make a natural casing dog..I did not think they did. Do they use a natural casing dog on those "salad dogs" in Chicago at that famous drive-in place. It's owned by this old couple and was featured on televison. It's the place with the big hot dog on the roof. On tv, it looked like they had a skinless dog.

I've enjoyed watching Ian on PBS for quite sometime now.
I hope this Travel Channel gig doesn't interfere with his PBS program.
8pm est on St. Patricks Day? Damn! I'll be wearing my kilt and most likely be singing The Black Velvet Band for the 3rd or 4th time of the day.

PS $450 bucks for a new kilt this year. OUCH!

Ian Wright has been on The Travel Channel for years with the old Lonely Plant series which is now called Global Trekker. He was one of the first travelers and thought the best next to Justine.

I was at Vienna Beef on Thursday and while touring the plant, the manager gave me a "head's up" on the Ian Wright segment of "America the Wright Way." http://www.travelchannel.com
