Doug Bruckner is a hot dog

We ran into Tabloid Baby pal Doug Bruckner in Santa Monica this afternoon as he was parking his car.

Actually the tabloid television legend, pirate expert and Lost aficionado wasn't driving the Oscar Meyer Wienermobile. A young couple from Madison, Wisconsin have that honor. We met them on the sidewalk, fishing into their pockets for parking meter change. They told us that they drive the car for the Oscar Meyer company during the week, and in their off hours, use it as their personal vehicle.

And as we saw, they made it all the way to Santa Monica!
