Got a crazy idea we can turn into a blog phenomenon

What has caused more than 16,000 Web sites to link to it?
Don Ipock for The New York Times
The recipe for the Bacon Explosion, modestly called by its inventors “the BBQ Sausage Recipe of all Recipes,” according to this New York Times story. The instructions are for making this log of two pounds of bacon woven through and around two pounds of sausage and slathered in barbecue sauce. The recipe first appeared last month on the Web site of a team of Kansas City competition barbecuers.
Got any pet-rockish or other kind of crazy ideas you think we could turn into a blogging-dream-come-true that’s not too risque?
They say a diverse collection of well over 16,000 Web sites have linked to the recipe, celebrating, or sometimes scolding, its excessiveness. A fresh audience could be ready to discover it on Super Bowl Sunday.

Uh, if I have a million dollar idea, you better believe I\’m not handing it over to the RRStar.

Ah, but dude: I didn’t say I’m necessarily looking for an idea to generate a million dollars. Just something that could get a lot of Web traffic.
Remember that guy that did a funny little jig everywhere he went around the world? It was a You Tube phenomenon.

You never know what will lead to a great idea, unless you’re bouncing it off other folks.

Jim: I don’t know what happened to your post. I asked an administrator of the system here, and she said she doesn’t know what happened either.
Can you post again??
