There is nothing more satisfying than a well-wrought phrase; unless it is one properly punctuated.

Funny!! I would've used that clerk as my excuse to high-tail it outta there and never go to a gym again. Period.

More importantly, I know you thought we'd just gloss right over that "promise of our first-born" part......

Do tell. :)

Confusing and time consuming. As is evidenced by the infrequency of my entries, it's not like I have a day to figure out the best use of these toys!

You know I'm all about the love....

I added you as a FAVE (as you did for me!!), but I wonder what else I should do. For some reason, it's very confusing to me.

I do remember that! I don't see how there's any wonder about why Indiana school students can't pass the ISTEP tests.

Remember the national campaign for AT&T? When people complained, they tried to say the mistake wasn't a mistake, but that we were supposed to think we actually were the world!! Stupid outsourcing.

AT&T
You're world. Delivered.

Comment on When did ordering a pizza become so difficult?

Excellent home pizza tips. Thanks!

Not to turn this into an entire thread on pizza, but if you want darn-sure-close to real NY-style pizza, make the 45-minute drive south to Zionsville for Amore Pizzeria. It's more expensive than what you'd pay in New York, but it puts Papa John's to shame.

I totaly agree with you. I am also a New York born and raised transplant to Indiana. New York style thin crust pizza has always been a passion of mine as well. When I used to fly as a commercial pilot, I had the unique opportunity to travel the eastern USA from Maine to Flordia to Louisiana to Iowa. I can honestly say that NY thin is quite hard to find outside of the NY area. Most people say they serve it, but it always lacks something. The crust, the sauce, the cheese all must be right - or no NY style. There are only 2 chain restraunts that come close in the Lafayette area. Papa John's, which I would rate 7 out of 10, and Luca's Pizza in the malls which I would rate 8 of 10 (although they are too skimpy on the cheese). What makes a NY thin style pizza? Besides amazingly thin but crispy crust and good tasting sauce (not too sweet), the cheese is to me the real deal breaker. Most pizza joints try to pass off pizza as mozzerella cheese only - yuck! Any true pizza lover knows it is the blend of cheeses. The secret I have found is smoked provolone cheese. If you can buy a 3, or even better, a 5 cheese blend package of shredded cheese, look for the smoked provolone and get ready for a mouth watering avalance of true pizza flavor. Who makes the best frozen pizza? Call me biased, but after working for Schwans Home Deliver frozen foods and ice cream, the frozen pizzas made by Schwan's win hands down. Want the flavor and quality of Schwans from your local grocer? Impossible you say? Not true! Buy Red Baron frozen pizza - which just happens to be - you guessed it, a Schwans brand. I usually buy the plain cheese, and add my shredded 5 cheese mix and tons of sliced Hormel pepperoni for my culinary delight. Bon appetite!
