rivercityvibe   “Puerile, smutty, schoolboy nonsense” – My Mom

Well the Jaguars won. How about that? I didn’t see that coming, I can tell you.

In celebration of this increasingly rare event, I am going to post about sport. The game we know and love is Football. Everyone plays it, well, everyone in the US (and Canadians with a note from mom excusing them rugby….). In the rest of the world they have something called “football” which we choose to call “soccer”. In South America it has been raised to an artform that has to be seen to be believed. That’s the reason for this post, actually. To show you this craziness:

Pretty neat, hey? Clearly illegal in Bolivia and, also, somehow gay, compared to Proper Football………….

If there is one person in Jacksonville who I would term, after the Australian fashion, a “dead-set legend,” it would be the Jags Dog Man (JDM). Every day, come rain-or-shine, he is out there, opposite Bank of America, at Roosevelt Mall, hawking his delicious hot dogs. He usually poles up around 12 pm (though he did say, that if he wanted to make money he’d be better to turn-up at 11 am. He’s such a legend, he CAN”T BE BOTHERED!). His dogs range from standard dollar ball-park franks, right through to some specialized Italian sausage (“flown in from Naples by a buddy of mine…..”) which retail for plenty and the silver-tongued devil always talks me into……

Solar powered since 1996.......

Ask the JDM about himself. He is an interesting guy. (get him to tell you about the time when a Buddhist monk asked if he would “make him one with everything……..”).

A couple of saucy little jokes in there, JDM.......

I first met the legend at a posh party in Ortega. He was down at the bottom of the garden, doling out high-end sausage to girls in summer dresses and boob jobs. We hit it off. Like I say, he’s an interesting guy, the JDM.

If you want something decent to eat at your next party, give him a call 904 534 7461. He owns jagdog.com, too, but believes the world is not ready for his type of web content just yet.
