God bless you President Reagan. Thank you for your service to our country. Lemming. Poor Kevin Noble, his brain riddled with FAS. Hey, JoeTechnician, I'll be in Florida in two weeks. Care to get together for a beer? I'll be in Masaryktown, near Brookesville. Masaryktown? Yup. Seems like your kind of place. Masaryktown compared to Florida state average: a.. Median house value below state average. b.. Median age significantly above state average. c.. Renting percentage below state average. d.. Number of college students below state average. e.. Percentage of population with a bachelor's degree or higher significantly below state average. I'd be wary if I were you. Your part of Florida, while affluent, is not the kind of place I'd choose to live. Uh-oh. It doesn't land on harry's approval list? No major league hospitals, The Cleveland Clinic in Naples is only open for about 3 or 4 years. Give it time. We just had a Bascomb Palmer Eye Institute open as well. Thanks, I'll stick with the first-class teaching hospitals in my metro area. universities, No, it's not a university town...yet. The founder of Domino's Pizza has donated a quarter of a billion dollars to build the "Notre Dame of the South" just 15 miles East of where I live. We'll have to see where it stands academically in about 15 years from now. On the side of right-wing extremism, just like the founder of Domino's http://members.aol.com/kq4ym/avemaria.html orchestras, Naples Philharmonic Orchestra http://www.thephil.org/index2.html Regional orchestras can be fun. museums, and all that goes with them. Neither does your "town". Museums are found in large cities...which Naples is not. I live in the Washington, D.C.-Baltimore, MD area...and am about 40 miles from each. i am in downtown DC three days a week. Some of the best museums in the world are in my metro area. Not even any great historical significance. Not sure how that matters? Yeah, well...that sorta figures. |

What a brilliant PR move! It's W.A.S.P. pizza, anyway. Nobody in their right mind likes it. |

He can go to the other coast where he'd be more welcome. |

LOL, everyone knows the best pizza is in New York City.

New Haven and Pepe's is The Source of pizza and is known around the world for being the best. Here's one little article: New Haven: the birthplace of American pizza By Matt Wiegle On July 9, 1988, two stories dominated the front page of the New Haven Register: first, Oliver North was going on trial for his role in the Iran-Contra scandal; second, Sally's Pizza on Wooster Street was celebrating its 50th anniversary. Since then, North has sunk into relative obscurity, having attempted in vain to gain office in the very government he tried to subvert. However, Sally's and its slightly older neighbor Pepe's remain positive icons by continuing their roles as the progenitors of American pizza and by having nothing whatsoever to do with foreign policy. In the early years of the 20th century (the Pizza Legend goes) Frank Pepe immigrated to New Haven, where he created the first American pizza by putting tomatoes on top of old bake-shop bread. His creation was so successful that in 1925 Pepe opened his first pizzeria on Wooster Street. By 1938, business was booming, the whole family was involved, and Pepe's nephew Sal Consiglio split off and opened his own pizzeria, Sally's. Soon, Pepe had moved out of his original store, now called The Spot, and opened a larger restaurant. Sally's and Pepe's remain locked in their Wooster Street rivalry today, two blocks apart. The pizza from both establishments is refreshingly thin and light. While chains like Pizza Hut have become increasingly obsessed with using cheese as stomach ballast, packing as much as possible into their pies, Sally's and Pepe's wisely demur. Pepe's pies look exactly like good oven-cooked pizza should: cheese sitting on top of but not dominating the sauce, with a flour-dusted crust framing the affair. They're as delicious as they look. Pizza from Sally's is even better. Arriving at the table in shapes that make equal distribution between dinner party members difficult, these pies have almost no visible crust—the toppings go to the edge. Their sauce is tangier than Pepe's and the slices are softer. It's a joy just to hold one and fold it in half. Even the mouth burns from a Sally's pizza taste good. A charming sense of tradition inhabits Sally's as well as Pepe's. Sally's, for example, is furnished with brownish-yellow booths that set off its brownish-yellow walls, which makes everything inside look a bit like an old sepia-tone photograph. The Spot is adorned with old photos of Frank Pepe in a service uniform and in a chef's hat, posing in front of vast shelves of tomato sauce. He wears the same bemused yet glum expression in each picture, which suggests something of the guy's attitude toward either life in general, or the army and pizza-making in particular. Wooster Street is a beautiful area that does New Haven proud, but the section that Yale students have to walk through to get there does not. Closer to home, there's Naples Pizza; if its tradition of pizza-making is not as rock-solid, its tradition of serving it within a more reasonable walking distance is. Cheap slices provide a good way for friends to pass an evening: talk, order a slice, talk, eat, talk, order a slice. There's a big TV, there's beer, and if Naples can't muster a defining personality, at least many personalities have left their mark. Naples' tables are filled with carved messages of all kinds, from the initials of couples who have probably since broken up to the scribbled names of sports teams who now suck. Some of the carvings are so deep that they may have taken decades to complete. Modern Apizza is another excellent pizza place; although removed from both the Wooster Street area and central campus, it features glorious Sally's-esque pies that have won the New Haven Advocate Reader's Poll for two years running. Although the great food still means Modern is crowded at peak hours, it's much easier to get into than either of the Wooster twins. While each of these places offers its proud traditions, XandO on Elm Street offers the tradition of stealing the other guy's idea and creating a corporate version. The chain coffee shop recently refashioned itself as a "coffeehouse and pizzeria," hiring a chef away from Pepe's to create its own brand of New Haven pizza. While it's good, XandO itself still feels like the set of a bad sitcom and looks uninhabitable. When Sal Consiglio died, 2,000 people attended his wake and The New York Times ran a half-page "In Memoriam"; if XandO's guy bit the dust, the only turnout would be his hyena-like spawn, scrabbling over his corpse in an effort to get to the will. You can make the food, but you can't copy the love. Go to Wooster and feel some. Photo of a Pepe's pie by John Yi.

In article , says... You truly have no class. I'm certainly not going to bow down to someone who I abhorred while he ran the country simply because he's passed on. Nobody asked you to, or even expects you to. But one with class wouldn't have referred to the man as a "nice pig" on the day he died. When Clinton dies, you'll all be talking about how he was a philandering liar. I'll be hoping that his soul rests in peace. Just looking back at the OT threads in *this* newsgroup would not support your prediction. Look at the Wellstone threads. The "arguements" generally centered around the left wing politicizing of his public memorial. I took a quick look and found nobody bashing Wellstone - it was the political rally that was focus of the arguements. I wish Clinton would rest in peace now... He's a former president but doesn't seem to want exercise the tradition of keeping his mouth shut. He should enjoy his retirement. |
