JUST WHEN YOU THINK YOU KNOW SOMEONE

I discovered a website that allows you to create your own surveys. Because I'm slightly self-absorbed (not really) and this blog bears my name, I made a quiz that tests your knowledge of my competitive eating alter ego, Mega Munch. Check it out here: How well do you know Mega Munch? (Nice title, eh?) When you're done, come on back here and let me know how you did. I think there's a link at the end of the survey. Seriously, it's easy and it's only 12 questions.

Oh no, I only got a 57%! I guess that means I technically failed. I think I missed the military one and your favorite food. Also might have missed the mystery condiment and mystery meat. But the ones I got right I was sure of!

Oh crap, D. I'm slightly embarassed (and you should perhaps be very afraid) that:

"You know me 97% well!"

100%, but after six years I've pretty much memorized the answer key!

I hereby challenge you to two contests:

1) How much human breast milk can you drink in 24 hours?
2) Who can put on the most weight proporationately?

Bring it!

If you can get a breat milk hook up that'd be amazing. I've been searching for the longest time. I think it'd take a while to make enough for a gallon challenge.

A 57% isn't too bad, Liz. Right about where I thought people would come in. There are a few tough questions in there.

I'll provide the answers in the next post. Not that Heather, Skinnyboy and Jeremy need them...they KNOW me. I wonder if Skinnyboy and Jeremy got tripped up on the same question (Favorite food)?

JEREMY (I'm assuming Jeremy posted that comment, not Lisa. For those that don't know, Jeremy and Lisa recently had a baby boy named Hudson...hence the preoccupation with breast milk.) -- Your challenge is intriguing. My question to you would be, What is the delivery method of the milk?

As for going up against Hudson in a proportionate weight gain contest, NO WAY! At the rate he's growing, I'd have to gain 100 pounds by the end of January!

Hudson has made arrangements with P-Diddy to get breast milk from a Cambodian immigrant from Queens, NY. (please reference the Dave Chapelle show if needed).

Hudson will allow you to drink from 4-0unce bottles with the slow-flo nipple attached; although he asks you make the exception and allow him to drink directly from the source. Call it strategy if you will.

Burgers . . . your favorite food, right?

I think I will use this quiz on the Vespa site. Easy to set up?

Dave,

Your viral marketing tactics are impressive you have gotten a lot of visitors -- from all over the world. It's great.

My Vespa site (www.vesparestoration.blogspot.com) now has a tracker. I have visitors from a few different continents, but nothing like you.

You have REALLY filled a needed void in the competitive eating circuit.

As a retired strategic marketer, may I "highly" suggest that you consider setting up a MySpace account for the competitive eating circuit -- a place that you can all come and unite as one. This is a very powerful way to market. We know that when we can have one-on-one interactions with our clients and friends we can impact them in major ways. Though I am not competitive eater, I do not believe I am presumptious when I say . . . I believe this is the next thing/step the competitive eating circuit needs to make to bond it closer. In my heart of hearts, I believe you are the one to do it Dave. You may not be a top teir eater in the ciruit, but trust me, your impact will be as great and you will go down in history as the Competitive Eating man who elevated the sport through bringing it together before the popular media.

Jeremy - Thanks for the kudos. I just write about my food exploits and people visit. What can I say?

Yes, burgers are my favorite food and yes, the quiz is easy to set up.

And speaking of competitive eating hubs, there's already one at www.eatfeats.com. Pretty much everyone in the IFOCE and AICE hangs out there to get the latest CE news and gossip.

The best part is the slanderous comments left by "anonymous" readers or not-so-cleverly created aliases. The other cool feature about Eat Feats: No one knows who the author--the androgenously named "OJRifkin"--really is. It's the greatest mystery in competitive eating history (we don't have a lot of mysteries).

I got an 85% That's not too bad, given that I only started reading recently.

As for OJ Rifkin - I always figured it was a "Marilyn Mason"-type pseudonym, except that both first and last names were from a murderer. Oops, make that a murderer for the last name and someone who was "responsible for" another person's death for the first name.

OJ (Simpson) was framed! I wanted to hear how he WOULD have done it but that didn't happen. Another example of how whiteys keep pushing the black man down.
