This article is about grilling but in ain't about chilling. I smell a new world record when Joey Chestnut faces the great Kobayashi at the annual Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest this July 4th.

	Civil engineering student Joey Chestnut set a new U.S. hot dog eating record at a Thursday qualifier for a spot in Nathan's Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest this summer, according to a Radio New Zealand report. The 22-year-old Chestnut, who attends San Jose State, ate 50 hot dogs in buns in 12 minutes in Las Vegas to break Sonny Thomas' record of 42 set last year.

I hope he bought the 2 ply Charmin Ultra!

Wonder what kind of social life he has? It would probably be quite a turn-off for a girl if he took her to dinner and his competitive eating streak kicked in as they were dining and he polished off both their meals in 2 1/2 minutes.

Where does it go? Do the large intestines swell up to hold that kinda eatin'?

VJ that's probably a question best left unanswered.
