Happy Martha Vickers Independence Day, Rex!
Avatar 🌮 ♥ 1:07pm Mailman Tom:

Ms. Vickers, starred in The Big Sleep. A movie that made no sense whatsoever, but was fun to watch anyway !
  1:07pm P-90:

And July Fourth weekend greetings to all fellow Rexpatriots!
  1:08pm P-90:

(Or "Rexpats")
  1:11pm Stefan Dz:

Thanks for working on July 4th so that we've got a great soundtrack for all the festivities, Rex.
  1:16pm marc:

Chris Christie may have to go into the recording industry after his failed Governorship and disastrous run for President
Avatar 🌮 ♥ 1:21pm Mailman Tom:

He'd be the heaviest president since William Howard Taft. He tipped the scales at well over 300 pounds !

Afternoon and Happy 4th, Fools!
Avatar 1:28pm kyle a.:

As a west coaster I don't understand... Was Chris Christie's goal to resemble an old UPA cartoon character?
Avatar 1:30pm Melissa Jean:

happy 4th Rex n Foolz! after dis I'm going to a fair to ride rides and eat junk, hooray!
  1:31pm V Priceless:

Hey Rex
  ♥ 1:35pm David in ATL from NJ:

Rex, have I told you that your program frightens me...but I like.
  1:40pm P-90:

Inexplicably, a lot of girls married Mickey Rooney...
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:44pm Gaylord Fields:

So, Mickey Rooney ... he had some sort of magic spell-casting amulet, right?
  1:53pm Stuart Rose:

Well, if Mickey was such a magnet for starlets, let's stop saying that all these happy unions were inexplicable.
Mickey had, it seems, some kind of sloshed mannish boy vibe. A jailbait quality of sorts.
  1:56pm P-90:

"...sloshed mannish boy vibe." Lemme chew on that one fer a couple minutes...
  1:57pm DJ Guy:

Brooklyn Zoo! That's what's up great clip
  2:01pm P-90:

Oh no.... Rex mentioned Tito's Taco's. Now I'm craving their tacos AND burritos. And I'm on the completely wrong coast. The agony...!
  2:03pm P-90:

...their little paper cups of minced Jalopeno hot salsa...their homemade tortilla chips...
  2:07pm amira:

I like hot dogs!
  2:08pm sinner:

I want the crusty macaronis around the edges of the pan. I'll even pay extry.
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:11pm Gaylord Fields:

Now why, pray tell, do you think an R&B dance-craze disc based on picking cotton neglected to become a hit with its intended audience?
  2:12pm sam:

how many tube steaks did the mighty chestnut pound down ?
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:12pm Gaylord Fields:

@sam: Chestnut LOST!
  2:13pm sam:

WHA?!!...DETAILS
  2:14pm sam:

IMA HUNT UP A STORY
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:15pm Gaylord Fields:

He came in second to Matt Stonie, who downed 62 dogs to Chestnut's 60.
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:18pm Gaylord Fields:

I'm happy about this, as it reintroduces a strong CE rivalry, like back in the Chestnut vs. Kobayashi days.
  2:18pm sam:

holy jezzus...a fix...settin up a pay per view meat jamming spectacular ! no doubt!
  2:20pm sam:

theres enuff pay per view meat jamming already !
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:22pm Gaylord Fields:

@sam: I refuse to believe there's any impropriety in competitive eating, the oldest and purest form of sport!
  2:23pm sam:

cant argue with that Gaylord
  2:24pm sam:

Hurling the farthest is the second oldest competitive sport I think
Avatar 2:25pm dk:

i'm guessing you don't get to be a champion hot-dog swallower if you're from a place with access to decent dogs. it'd be sacrilege to force a fistful of rutt's hut rippers down your gullet after drowning them in a 32oz cup of tepid poland springs.
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:27pm Gaylord Fields:

I'll take this opportunity to announce that I am willing to take on any and all challengers in an ice cream–eating contest (on a purely amateur level)!

I am serious.
Avatar 2:27pm dk:

... from this observation i develop the following travel advice: when in San Jose, try the tacos!
Avatar 2:29pm kyle a.:

Gaylord, you're on! If I run into at Tiki Oasis again we'll make a go of it!
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:30pm Gaylord Fields:

Banana splits at dawn! I'll be waiting for all comers at my training spot, Torico's!
  2:30pm sam:

no taker here Gaylord....if I could temporarily remove my brain , maybe
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:32pm Gaylord Fields:

@sam: It worked wonders for me.

@kyle a: Don't let your mouth write a check your spoon can't cash!
  2:32pm sam:

somebody notify the news media...this could be the beginning of a new new York tradition !
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:35pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Two hot dogs with some ketchup on a bun fills me up just fine. Maybe a third one a while later. If you need a training partner for the ice cream, Gaylord, I'd be happy to oblige.
  ♥ 2:35pm David in ATL from NJ:

Criminally insane in cages. Alright. Bring the family out.
  2:36pm ETHEL:

IM COMIN FOR YA !!!
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:39pm Gaylord Fields:

@Ken From Hyde Park: You're now a member of Team Gaylord! I expect you to be able to handle at least six scoops a sitting, for starters.
  2:44pm Blurb Clippington:

Chestnut ate more than 1.8 gallons of ice cream in six minutes Saturday...(Gaylord did say "any and all comers" didn't he?)
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:47pm Gaylord Fields:

@Blurb Clippigton: I also said I didn't want to jeopardize my amateur status. Some of us aren't in it for the money.
  2:52pm Blurb Clippington:

I admire your purity of purpose Gaylord.
  2:53pm Blurb Clippington:

Just a matter of time til the Olympics latch on.
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:56pm Ken From Hyde Park:

My new meal plan: breakfast > vanilla; dinner > strawberry; supper > chocolate. And some pistachio on Sundays. Midnight snacks will consist of cherry swirl.
  2:57pm JakeGould:

How about a 50 piece McNugget bucket in 1 sitting? For a mere $10 you can be famous!
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:57pm Gaylord Fields:

Even though this is, by all metrics, quite hilarious, I wish I was kidding about this hero's journey of mine.
  2:57pm Cosmic caveman:

Lets monkey around like a chimpanzebra
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 2:59pm Gaylord Fields:

@JakeGould: I'm a vegetarian — though that doesn't stop pro CE participants who also are veg from consuming meat. But I do this out of love of ice cream. And of winning.
Avatar 🌮 Swag For Life Member ♥ 3:00pm Gaylord Fields:

Do it, @Ken From Hyde Park!
Avatar ♥ 3:01pm Philthy woman:

Thanks for infusing some energy into an otherwise rather dreary day here!
  3:01pm Sam:

If Gaylord's buyin...I predict a Nathan's like turnout
  3:01pm Cosmic caveman:

Bye Rex...bye
