Walking up Cornwallis a couple days ago in the fog. Saw the dawgfather drive by, watched people smoking on their stoops, talking to strangers on the street, & smiled. The air smelled like the ocean & everyone was friendly. I love this neighbourhood! —RyleyHfx

What’s the story with the dawgfather van guy?? Am I just totally out of the loop?
he sell wieners and such from a cart, i have never eaten his products nor met him but he is quite a popular figure. he has been mentioned in the coast a few times^^
oohhhh… ok. He has quite the colourful van.
there’s a van? well it seems i don’t know as much as i thought^^^
I’ve just seen a spray painted, graffiti tagged van driving around. May be someone different, but I”m pretty sure it says “dawgfather” on the side of it. Had no idea it had anythign to do with wienies, but that would make sense!
Yeah I seen that much larger fella driving the green spray painted caravan….I don’t think he’s a hotdog vendor though.
I’m sure the huge bbq grill hanging off the back of the van wasn’t any sort of indicator…
“without the grease, all you can taste is the hog anus”

that way I can still see Bret Hart if I’m around..
He came into the store last year. Nice fella.

you won’t have to look very hard….
If I’m at the show, I’ll be where I said I was gonna be.
otherwise, it’ll be like,
“who the hell would buy those seats and not go!”
Which Silly English Kenigget will you be dressed as?
i am going to throw spitballs at you zZz^^we are in section 17? i might dress-up admiral, but i stand out in a crowd anyhoo
Tim the Enchanter?
ooh i like him but i’m only 6 ft tall… i could rawk that costume tho
You got the horns…Screeee!
There are some who call me……. Tim?
I wish I were dressing up.
I likely will be singing along though
i won’t be dressing up either, but ivan gave me a good idea for an all hallow’s eve costume…teehee
You MUST do it Painey. And you must take a picture and use it as your avatar, even if only for 24hrs, a la Suckulous. Screeeeee!
at lasertag… we’ll get tons of pics.
Something tells me introducing an enchanter into a round of lasertag would upset the balance of power. Not unlike using a Holy Hand Grenade to take out a bunch of drumcirclejerking hippies.
and orangutans, and breakfast cereals…
