Oscar Mayer Wienermobile crashes into Wis. home

(07-17) 17:01 PDT MOUNT PLEASANT, Wis. (AP) --

The owner of a southern Wisconsin house might not be in love with the Oscar Mayer wiener right now. The Oscar Mayer Wienermobile crashed into a Mount Pleasant house around noon Friday.

Mount Pleasant Police Chief Tim Zarzecki said the 22-year-old female driver was turning the giant hot dog on wheels around in a driveway and thought she was reversing but instead went forward and crashed into the deck and garage. No one was home and no one was injured.

2. K&R, This is possibly the only factually accurate news we will see all day

And reported without an opinion if we are very very lucky. I hope to see it on all of the national news casts - I honestly do.

4. I really, really wanted that job many years ago.

Sadly, they had way more applications than positions and I wasn't lucky. Woulda been a treat for me to drive around and give away weiner whistles and stuff. Geek city.

I applied at Disneyland, too, in 61 and 62, but I had a little acne, and that disqualified a guy from sweeping up the trash people dropped. Pity. A few years later, though, I got to play in a dixieland band on main street for about a month. Cool beans.
