Please explain why certain models of Husqvarna lawn/garden
tractors exist even though you claim they never were
manufactured.

When you finish explaining that, please explain why you put an
outboard with a 25" lower unit on a boat with a 20" transom.

When you finish explaining that, please explain how that outboard
can be *so* efficient, it burns about half the fuel competing
outboards would on the same boat and under the same operating
conditions.

Oh, and is your bipolar disorder under control now?



That's sure to get you back in Tom's good graces.
BTW You forgot to wish me happy birthday yesterday.
Cheers
Belated Happy Birthday......
Thank you Mr. Duck. I was at Disney yesterday. Do you think I might
have seen you?
If you looked about 50 miles to the NW, maybe.
My eyesight aint that good.

Wasn't there a big tornado that passed through your area a couple of
years ago?

Yes, about one mile south of my home in Lady Lake.
We stopped at Pauly's for slices Sunday. It's at Town Square. Do you
know the place. Don't want to give Hairy too much info. Let him dig for
it.


Not sure which of the two Squares you're referring to. I don't live in
the "compound" and infrequently visit either "square".

Spanish Springs. If you like pizza, it's worth a try.


I've heard the name for pizza. In the 17 years I've been in Florida I've
given up hope of finding anything close to Chicago pizza I crave.

After following your posts here for a long time I feel you are a man of good
"taste". I will give Pauley's a try and if it isn't up to my standards I
will haunt you here until you are driven away. Something others cannot do!

I thought when people get to your age, they like to forget about their

You do have a thinking problem, don't you. Matter of fact we spent the
afternoon at Disney and had a nice time. What do you do on your birthday?


Not here yet, but when it arrives I'll be as old as your buddy in the music
business.


Ahhhh, so this will be your first birthday, that explains a lot.

Floridajim? Domino's, Chuck E. Cheese, and any navy mess hall.

There was one decent pizza place in all of metro Jacksonville, and the
last time I asked a "bud" down there what was happening, he said the
place had changed hands.

Good NY pizza is found in New York, New Haven, and a few other places
where there is a significant Italian population. Good Chicago pizza, as
far as I have discovered, is found in Chicago, possibly still at
Giordano's.

Central Florida?

Nah.

I like thin crust hand tossed with a good sauce not overly seasoned and

Greek style pan pizza is pretty good too.

I like it the way you do. Never had the Greek style.

A friend of mine has a joint in Chicago and when talking to him about it he
says the cheese available here is not the same. Also, I like sausage and
nothing here compares favorably to Chicago for me.

Here the green peppers, mushrooms and onions are ok, but you can't make a
pizza to suit my taste with just those. The big hang-up for me is the
cheese, too "watery" and makes the curst all soggy. I've had some good thin
crust here, but the cheese spoils it.

I hope to have Pauley's report shortly. I'm getting hungry...if I wasn't
headed for the golf course I may have gone there for lunch.

I was misinformed. My favorite pizza joint in Jax is still around...

Don't know what it is like now, but 11 years ago :) it was pretty
damned good NY-style pizza. Homemade sauce, too.

But I still long for a clam pie from Pepe's in New Haven, and a visit
afterwards to one of the Italian bakeries in the neighborhood.

it. I'll give you another chance. What do you do on your birthday?


It was almost a year ago Numbnuts......... probably enjoyed it with my
family.

Yada yada yada. You still didn't answer the question. Have you been taking
lessons from Harry?


So, we're playing games here eh?
If you really want to know...I was busy being 'born' on my birthday!

Please explain why certain models of Husqvarna lawn/garden tractors

When you finish explaining that, please explain why you put an

When you finish explaining that, please explain how that outboard
can be *so* efficient, it burns about half the fuel competing

That's sure to get you back in Tom's good graces.

Not here yet, but when it arrives I'll be as old as your buddy in the

Oh my. You are really having a hard time with this, aren't you? Let me
help you out. Do you get the family together and sing happy birthday? Do
you have a favorite thing you customarily do? In other words, "What do
you do on your birthday" Christ. Your birthday will be over before you
figure out how to answer the question. Them what calls you dumb might be

I like thin crust hand tossed with a good sauce not overly seasoned and
a
blend of cheeses. I don't care for bread with sauce and cheese on top.
Greek style pan pizza is pretty good too.


I like it the way you do. Never had the Greek style.

"Blended cheeses?"
Sounds like Chippewa Falls pizza.
Some cheddar, muenster, colby, swiss, etc.
No thanks. Just the mozz.

A friend of mine has a joint in Chicago and when talking to him about it
he
says the cheese available here is not the same. Also, I like sausage and
nothing here compares favorably to Chicago for me.

That's ok. I'll eat an extra one every week - and dedicate it to you.

Here the green peppers, mushrooms and onions are ok, but you can't make a
pizza to suit my taste with just those. The big hang-up for me is the
cheese, too "watery" and makes the curst all soggy. I've had some good
thin
crust here, but the cheese spoils it.

I like sausage on my pizza too. Even there, touch is important.
Better too little than too much. Too much can overwhelm the sauce and
mozz. There's a place near U of Chicago I went to for lunch when
painting a house in Hyde Park. Popular with the students, but I never
tried it. Ground the sausage. Kept me from trying it. Didn't look
right.
Wife has brought home frozen pizzas with that ground sausage.
It's just not right. Sausage should be in chunks, so you can chew it.
Then you got the sauce. Some are too sweet for me. Nancy's had a
real acidic sauce. Gave up on them.
Went to lunch with some suburb folks when I worked a McD HQ.
Roosevelt Road I recall, near Oakbrook.
They raved about the pizza. Sauce tasted like - ketchup.
Another lunch in an Oakbrook Plaza restaurant this same crew was
ordering something called California pizza. Pineapple on it.
Damn, it's lucky I'm not a lunch person. I'd starve.

I hope to have Pauley's report shortly. I'm getting hungry...if I wasn't
headed for the golf course I may have gone there for lunch.

Good luck. And don't be kind with your criticism.
Pizza demands truth.

--Vic


It's hell being a Chicago pizza snob like me. For the most part it's
probably what you grew up with. I'm glad I grew up in Chicago.

Nothing down here with anything close to the Chicago style pizza sausage.
Green pepper, onion and mushroom is the only toppings I will order here.

O' for some good mozzarella!

I'll appreciate you thinking of us down here when you have your next cheese
and sausage pizza. Could you do it today, please.

You do love your cholesterol, don't you?
I just remembered one reason I like Greek pan pizza. They make it with
heart healthy olive oil. The pizzas are a little greasy and might not
have a crispy enough crust to suit your taste. Try one at Takis on 441
in Leesburg if you get a chance.

There's some fantastic Greek food in Tarpon Springs, the best being
kind of outside of the touristy part of town and get to where the
locals live and eat. Hellas is at the spong docks, but is very good,
the mousaka is fantastic!

That's ok. I'll eat an extra one every week - and dedicate it to you.

Here the green peppers, mushrooms and onions are ok, but you can't make
a
pizza to suit my taste with just those. The big hang-up for me is the
cheese, too "watery" and makes the curst all soggy. I've had some good
thin
crust here, but the cheese spoils it.

I like sausage on my pizza too. Even there, touch is important.
Better too little than too much. Too much can overwhelm the sauce and
mozz. There's a place near U of Chicago I went to for lunch when
painting a house in Hyde Park. Popular with the students, but I never
tried it. Ground the sausage. Kept me from trying it. Didn't look
right.
Wife has brought home frozen pizzas with that ground sausage.
It's just not right. Sausage should be in chunks, so you can chew it.
Then you got the sauce. Some are too sweet for me. Nancy's had a
real acidic sauce. Gave up on them.
Went to lunch with some suburb folks when I worked a McD HQ.
Roosevelt Road I recall, near Oakbrook.
They raved about the pizza. Sauce tasted like - ketchup.
Another lunch in an Oakbrook Plaza restaurant this same crew was
ordering something called California pizza. Pineapple on it.
Damn, it's lucky I'm not a lunch person. I'd starve.

I hope to have Pauley's report shortly. I'm getting hungry...if I
wasn't
headed for the golf course I may have gone there for lunch.

Good luck. And don't be kind with your criticism.
Pizza demands truth.

It's hell being a Chicago pizza snob like me. For the most part it's
probably what you grew up with. I'm glad I grew up in Chicago.

Nothing down here with anything close to the Chicago style pizza sausage.
Green pepper, onion and mushroom is the only toppings I will order here.

O' for some good mozzarella!

I'll appreciate you thinking of us down here when you have your next
cheese and sausage pizza. Could you do it today, please.

You do love your cholesterol, don't you?
I just remembered one reason I like Greek pan pizza. They make it with
heart healthy olive oil. The pizzas are a little greasy and might not have
a crispy enough crust to suit your taste. Try one at Takis on 441 in
Leesburg if you get a chance.


I've been to Takis in Leesburg several years ago. Can't remember if I had
pizza or not. Probably had gyros another of my favorites and down here are
pretty good, especially over in Tarpon Springs.

Do you live anywhere close to this area, or is that a closely guarded
secret?

Thin crust, New York style, tomato and three cheese pizza - finest

Chicago style pizza sucks. As does most pizza.

Oh, and for the record - giving credit where credit is due - Frank

There's some fantastic Greek food in Tarpon Springs, the best being
kind of outside of the touristy part of town and get to where the
locals live and eat. Hellas is at the spong docks, but is very good,
the mousaka is fantastic!


I don't care for Greek food. Or Thai food. Or Indian food. Or any
variations of the above including French or that abomination of
cuisine Irish food.

Dont' even mention Irish food - I'll puke on your shoes.

I do like some Chinese food espiecally if it's authentic.

I'll take medium rare roast beef, mashed potatoes (not too soft), fresh
green beans (not too soft), popovers (great vehicles for getting gravy into
you mouth) and good gravy.

Oh, and a cold glass of milk.

If that isn't available, Chicago thin crust pizza.

What ever kind of Chinese food you have it will be authentic to
someone. I really like good Chinese but it is difficult to find in
South Florida. I have three essential tests for a restaurant before
I will try it: It has to smell right when you open the door;
There should be ample numbers of Chinese help working there;
and ideally there should be a fair number of Chinese patrons.

The only place to get good NY pizza is in NYC. Your opinion may be
different, but you are just wrong. ;)
Part of the reason NYC pizza is so good, is the NYC water. Below is a
link from a LA native who used to think NYC people were snobs about
their pizza, until he went to NYC and tasted their pizza.

I am sure Pepe's is good, it just isn't the best. There I said it,
and i feel much better. Now when Pepe's opens his store in Yonkers, he
might finally perfect his really good pizza.

Here the green peppers, mushrooms and onions are ok, but you can't make
a
pizza to suit my taste with just those. *The big hang-up for me is the
cheese, too "watery" and makes the curst all soggy. *I've had some good
thin
crust here, but the cheese spoils it.

I like sausage on my pizza too. *Even there, touch is important.
Better too little than too much. *Too much can overwhelm the sauce and
mozz. *There's a place near U of Chicago I went to for lunch when
painting a house in Hyde Park. *Popular with the students, but I never
tried it. *Ground the sausage. *Kept me from trying it. *Didn't look
right.
Wife has brought home frozen pizzas with that ground sausage.
It's just not right. *Sausage should be in chunks, so you can chew it.
Then you got the sauce. *Some are too sweet for me. *Nancy's had a
real acidic sauce. *Gave up on them.
Went to lunch with some suburb folks when I worked a McD HQ.
Roosevelt Road I recall, near Oakbrook.
They raved about the pizza. *Sauce tasted like - ketchup.
Another lunch in an Oakbrook Plaza restaurant this same crew was
ordering something called California pizza. *Pineapple on it.
Damn, it's lucky I'm not a lunch person. *I'd starve.

I hope to have Pauley's report shortly. *I'm getting hungry...if I
wasn't
headed for the golf course I may have gone there for lunch.

Good luck. *And don't be kind with your criticism.
Pizza demands truth.

It's hell being a Chicago pizza snob like me. *For the most part it's
probably what you grew up with. *I'm glad I grew up in Chicago.

Nothing down here with anything close to the Chicago style pizza sausage.
Green pepper, onion and mushroom is the only toppings I will order here.

O' for some good mozzarella!

I'll appreciate you thinking of us down here when you have your next
cheese and sausage pizza. *Could you do it today, please.
You do love your cholesterol, don't you?
I just remembered one reason I like Greek pan pizza. They make it with
heart healthy olive oil. The pizzas are a little greasy and might not have
a crispy enough crust to suit your taste. Try one at Takis on 441 in
Leesburg if you get a chance.

I've been to Takis in Leesburg several years ago. *Can't remember if I had
pizza or not. *Probably had gyros another of my favorites and down here are
pretty good, especially over in Tarpon Springs.

Do you live anywhere close to this area, or is that a closely guarded
secret?- Hide quoted text -

There's some fantastic Greek food in Tarpon Springs, the best being
kind of outside of the touristy part of town and get to where the
locals live and eat. Hellas is at the spong docks, but is very good,
the mousaka is fantastic!


I don't care for Greek food. Or Thai food. Or Indian food. Or any
variations of the above including French or that abomination of
cuisine Irish food.

Dont' even mention Irish food - I'll puke on your shoes.

I do like some Chinese food espiecally if it's authentic.

Southern Mexican, Tex-Mex, Italian and good ole' 'Merican eats -
that's the ticket.


Costco pizza *is* American, and it's not too bad if you're into
quantity instead of quality.
