Hey, Mongo,

Our AutoDog machine just arrived at home. Our thanks for the suggestion!

Our 13 year old daughter asked Mom, “Why is an ice cream machine called an autodog?”

Some days, you can’t get home soon enough.

Seeing as this thread is hijacked already….
I showed mom the link to Autodog (R) (TM) and she said, “Hey, the Linen & Things here is closing / going out of bidness, let me look and see if they have one.” Indeed, they did, and for one half of the price of that there surly table place….FWIW, YMMV etc., etc., etc…

Mongo, If I recall correctly, form your postings, you live somewhere in Washington State area.
If you hear whoops and hollars on Christmas day, that’s sis and her family cheering your good judgment in posting here. They live right there in NW Wash.

To (sort of) tie this into Naval Aviation , B I L used to work for the Navy somewhere in the Seattle area (I think it was) and is a fan of USN type planes.

Regards,

Jake (Typing way too much)

Ordered mine as well.
Just hoping that Surly’Table give a slight commission to our Blogger-in-Chief.

Have yet to ’splain what an Autodog is to our kids. Knowing me,they are expecting the worst.

This thread has ‘gone to the dogs’ but it is fun. Thanks for ‘autodog’ explaino. I’ll have funny dreams about F-35B from now on.

Lee,

The F-35B has the autodog; you just gotta rotate the jet nozzle down to dispense.
