Excerpt from a conversation with my grandchildren in the year 2065: Oh, you think times are tough now?  HA!  I’ll tell you about tough times.  Back when I was a younger man, before I married your grandmother, me and your Uncle Bill lived through the Great Depression of 2010. There was barely any food to eat, and we were too poor to own a grill, so we would cook hot dogs on the stovetop in a pan.  And later, we’d make “hot dog soup” out of the leftover hot dog oil.  There were no buns.  There was no ketchup and mustard.  We just had two hot dogs and our friendship.  That’s how we survived. To this day, I can’t eat a hot dog because of the memories it stirs up.  Rough times.  Rough times, indeed. None of this will actually be true, but I plan on being senile at this point, so I could very well spout of random things like this at any moment. The truth is, Bill was too lazy to grill out on the roof because it was “too cold” and he thought the microwave made hot dogs “not taste as good”, so here we are… pan frying hot dogs.  Ridiculous.
