Social media accomplished something positive for a small business.

With all the anger and negativity pumped out there by the media it’s nice to see a story picked up by major media outlets that is positive and puts a smile on my face.

Oklahoma hotdog business still booming after photo of owner waiting by door goes viral. I love that they named a hotdog dish after the service member who took the picture.

Stickman, also made it to national news the hotdog vendor video. I saw it on local news recently. What made me happy to see is that it actually went viral through the military community first. They are supporting him. I'm 18 miles from his restaurant and will visit soon, on my way to the Clear Bay mountain bike trails of course Wink




I have a few SIGs.

Mr. Bendable, what we have here is a soldier who saw a GOOD man in distress and helped him the only way he could.

It passes angry Marzy's feel good test. It's a good story. It's a NEEDED story.

That was a great story, thanks for posting.

I'm noticing that slowly but surely we are seeing a few more movies and stories that have a Christian spiritual component to them. Times are harder than they should be, so I expect this trend to continue.

I agree that it was a feel good story that should be shared.

Just not during a news program.

OH awesome cool story!

Thanks for posting it.

I know where I'm going for lunch in a few days! 30-35 minute drive will be well worth it.

Let me know when you are going. It's about a 3.5 hour for me, but I was looking at making the trip soon, after seeing the story last week.
