2006_01_hotdog.jpgIn honor of our mayor-for-another-four-years' favorite food, Gothamist presents this awesome picture, via Cute Overload! ;) (emoticon is theirs - so cute!). Of course, putting a dachsund puppy in a sesame-seeded bun is wrong in about fifty different ways, but it's so right in one way (it's cute!), it all evens out.

Also cute: The Post's story about Jake the terrier who calms down musicians at Lincoln Center. His owner is the stagehand Crew Chief, Rich Norton, who has been bringing him to work. Also cute and lifesaving: The cat that called 911.
