SP #3 The dog
Another simple pleasure I enjoy may seem somewhat strange, but those of you who know me will not be surprised. Sunday morning during Bob Strader's prayer, he thanked God for Dr. Pepper and peanut butter among other things. I give an A-men to that and add hot dogs to the list. I know some people are grossed out about the ingredients of this particular meat product, but I choose to remain ignorantly blissful. Imagine this scene...opening day at the Ballpark in Arlington (which I choose to continue to call it--Ameriquest Field doesn't do it justice), a nice, spring, 74-degree day, sitting on the second level just above 1st base, Mench is up to bat, and you are holding in your right hand a ballpark hot dog and in your left an over-priced, icy Coke. Just doesn't get much better than that. What would you add to the list?
