I second that. Les you wrote beautifully, as always, and can make pizza too! Are you sure you still want to go to a higher level of attainment? Sounds like you already are there!

One almost sacred event my wife and I share is pizza night on Saturday. I've been making pizza for many years, constantly tweaking the recipe, experimenting, and researching how others do it. I watch all the pizza shows on the Food Channel, and I roam websites where they talk about it (pizzamaking.com and encylopizza.com are two great sites).

Mmm. Pizza :-p

Did you ever see "Dirty Deeds"? (It has John Goodman in it as an American mobster trying to expand the gaming business to Australia. Not exactly a classic, but entertaining anyway.)

Ahhh!

I'm not on the list! But I'm funny!

*cries*

People see me on the street, and just burst out laughing. Now don't tell me that's not funny.

*Puts self on the funny list*

*Giggles*

*Runs and hides*

Buy a bigger car. If you park at Walmart, you can sometimes even plug in your extension cord. :biggrin:
