Please explain why certain models of Husqvarna lawn/garden

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
outboards would on the same boat and under the same operating

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.

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


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.

Wrong answer.
Here is a perfect example of what I was talking about.
It was a simple question. There were only seven uncomplicated words in
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!

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 on to
something.


Well, one think I don't do on my birthday is... suffer fools gladly!


Before you make such a revealing statement you should understand what it
means. Here's some help.

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.

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?

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!

Unfortunately due to the presence of a certain low life element on
rec.boats it is prudent not to reveal one's precise location.

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?

Unfortunately due to the presence of a certain low life element on
rec.boats it is prudent not to reveal one's precise location.


What have you got to hide?
