Koby on Hot Dog Eating Commercial

Nathan’s Hot Dot Eating Contest is coming up soon. I found this commercial on YouTube where Koby (Takeru Kobayashi) and Sonya Thomas compete at a convenience store.
When you look at the past winners on the Wikipedia page for Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest, you see a bunch of American and Japanese flags. I find that really funny. There is one German flag and one Mexican flag; other than these, it’s all Japanese or American.
I remember when the first Japanese contestant appeared on the scene; I thought it was the funniest thing. I had never thought that the skinny Japanese had a chance, but it turned out that being skinny allows you to eat more. This completely changed the “sport”. Now the fat guys have no chance of winning.

iPhone Apps for Preschoolers
We (i.e. the creators of AllLookSame.com) developed a series of iPhone apps for preschool kids. (My wife developed the characters and I did the coding.) Our own 4-year old daughter has been enjoying them. They are now available on Apple's App Store. You can search for "bitskis" on your iPhone, or visit the official website at bitskis.com.
It's great for parents when they are traveling with kids (in a car, doctor's office, waiting for food at a restaurant, etc..). If you have kids and own an iPhone, please check it out. It's $2.
