Pete's Wacky Wiener World
'Making wieners is not a hard job. I've been doing it for 32 years now. If it was hard, I would have stopped years ago. This page will show some of the things I go through in my pursuit to make the perfect wiener! Not every day comes up a bowl of cherries. Check back here often and see what's up.'

My pal Joe hurt his neck looking at 'tomatoes' while driving with his wife.
Cinco de mayo at Wiener World and guess who going for the tequila?
My view of the shenanigans, Parade Day 2006!
St Pats Parade Day 2006
I like when they do this!
At the 2006 Philly Auto Show, I try out my favorite ride.
First snow on the farm!
My friend Joe N. stopped by with his '63 Vette. Sweet, isn't it. When you stop by for a wiener with a car like that, ignore the 15 minute sign and take your time!
Even artillery men from the Civil War like our wieners!
Happy Happy Joy Joy!!! Spent my 50th birthday at my favorite junk yard, 'Harry's U Pull It'. They don't allow cameras so I took this with my camera phone. When I was done pulling parts for my Ranger I dined at 'Harry's U Eat It'. Junk Yard Dog and a coke, my favorite birthday meal.
Now I ask ya! What's better than smoking a Onyx Torbusto while corking some homemade Zinfandel.
Johnny and Chris get ready to bottle our wine.
The gang's all here St Pats Day 2005!
Pat and his crew, St Pats 2005!
Mike sports our St. Patrick's Day Parade truckers derby!
Boy it sure has been cold the month of January!
Johnny V's 21st birthday party at the Grandview Gentleman's Club!
In this historic picture, witness Johnny V taking the initiative on his own and filling the soda cooler. I had to be resuscitated when I saw it!
Here I am, gloating over the fact that we were voted best Hot Dog in Northeast Pennsylvania by the Electric City readers!
My scarecrow keeps a wary eye on the excavator tearing up our old sidewalk, Halloween 2004.
On the left, a detail of my sister Kathy's Halloween shirt. On the right, Kathy.
This photo, taken by my sister Kathy's pal, Deb, was taken as I was showing Mike what the St. Louis Cardinals are going to do to his team, the New York Yankees!
It's that time of the year up on the farm. Geese standing around looking stupid. I notice this every year, they stand there for hours. Then, all at once, they finally decide to go. I think it's after they have covered the field in crap!
Much to my dismay, Johnny V got a new tattoo. St. Christopher. Better a saint than the devil.
My bobble head collection! I just couldn't throw out that old pie case.
My son and friends white water rafting down the Colorado River while vacationing in Vail this summer.
Johnny V eats his first chili cheeseburger after his friends tell him how good they are. Can you believe it, my own son and all he ate here all his life was plain hot dogs!
April 17 was my 49th birthday and my granddaughter, Kylie, got me this tasty birthday cake!
My sister, Margie, knitted me a hat so I had to wear it at the grill!
My nephew Chris took a road trip up to Rock Tavern, NY and got his picture taken with Paul Sr. at Orange County Choppers!
I went to the Philadelphia Auto Show on Superbowl Sunday. Here I am dreaming of the day I'm done paying for college for my son.
I can't see myself throwing bags of leaking garbage in this truck. That's one good thing about having a 1991 Ford Ranger! ;-)
When I'm not making wieners, I have a 20 acre farm to go to. In this picture you see my old antagonist, a once mighty oak tree. The oak stood in the middle of my field till this fall when the wind took it down.
Our customers are allowed to ignore the stupid no parking signs, especially when the arrive in rides as sweet as this '34 Chevy!
Apparently somebody was irritated by Roy's constant ragging.
This is Peggy or Marge. She answers to either and she doesn't like anyone sitting in the first booth when she comes in the door.
I ate at Coopers Seafood House on my 48th birthday and got a free meal and this crab hat to boot!
Sometimes Noodles needs to be persuaded to work a little faster!
This is the last thing a wiener sees before its cooked and eaten!
Doesn't everybody have an area where they answer the phone that looks like this!
This guy.......... he mutters the name, 'Joe', about every 10 seconds. Don't sit by him. But, watch how fast he can eat a wiener. I have never seen anyone faster. He shoves the whole wiener in his pie hole all at once and swallows.
This is my view on the day of the annual St. Patrick's Day Parade 2004. Its a big day for all us 'Irish'.
The joint is packed to the gills. Note the green festooning!
People keep an eye out for a place to sit!
This is Roy. If you see him at the counter, don't sit next to him. He doesn't know when to shut up. He rags about everything!
It snowed at my farm.
This is 'Noodles'. He was our cleanup man. His job also includes driving me insane and he's an expert at it! He likes the Yankees too much!
The little woman at New York, New York Casino in Las Vegas.
Don King and The Wiener King!
That's my wife, Kathy, with her pal Penn. He and his buddy, Teller, do magic tricks. We saw them out in Vegas when we stopped by the Rio casino last summer.
There she is with Wayne Newton. Boy, that guy is after everybody's wife.
This is my son, Johnny. He works the weekends with me & Bob. He drives GMC Yukons and drives me nuts. And he's pretty good at both, too!
This is my son's 'son', Juan Pauley! Take it from me, this guy knows his munchies!
Lisa, who 'secretly runs the joint', makes some fries. I keep telling her I'm the boss, but it doesn't matter.
