Surely that can't be true!! Crusty Kruller worked at Dominos and Papa
John's so he's the expert here, isn't he? Well, he thinks he is.

The Supra is a most honorable car. My guess is that you wish you had that ride. Perhaps it is time to get a 2021.

Yeah, there's that too. But I've never had to wonder if my yeast is
dead (Unless I find myself not needing any more Monostat 7)

So do I. My heart has been broken several times when the software
developers didnt keep up with MacOS changes, even though they had plenty
of opportunity to fix their programs. My current newsreader is used because
I cant use my old one and its children that I used for twenty-five
years. Im just now getting used to the new one.
There will be another seismic shift in Apple Mac software soon. I wonder if
my current newsreader will survive.

Most folks prefer to read Usenet posts in chronological order - and yes, I
am speaking for everybody in the country. When I was using Thunderbird, I
didn't have to click anything to read the messages because you could read
the messages in the preview window by scrolling down the message list.

I don't have to click anything in Google Groups either because all the
unread posts are already open. It's a sweet setup.

Cor!!! When you get here you can teach me))

I always end up liking software that I'm used to. And at that point I

Just saying but... one click on a reference link to see
who he was replying to (you), would be much quicker than
your post to him complaining about no quotes.

Oh please tell me that itsjerknotjoann is not the expert????

Very strange because he is always pulling people down for doing things he

Those are pretty funny, if not highly predictable. OTOH, Italy is a country
of people with a great need for a shtick. Jews got shtick, Hawaiians got
shtick. Now Italians have a shtick of their very own. This is a good thing.

Nice) Most of my life I had sports cars until later years when I went
for SUVs. My last one was a Mazda MX5. I think you call them Miata?

I do the same in a different way. I read all new messages
before I respond to any. The ones I read and want to respond
to, I'll mark them as "unread."

Once I read all, I go back and respond to some.
Some already responded to, I'll skip.

Just like you, I'll often buy a frozen pizza and enhance it.
Some day, I'll try the Newmans brand but haven't yet.
Wild Mike's make's a good large one.
Even those Tostino's retanglar ones are ok on occasion.
(quick and easy to do)
Tombstone are also good with a bit of additions.

Mainly though, I'm talking about homemade ones using
scratch dough. Probably 70% of mine are homemade.

I have no problem with my crusts. Made with AP flour.
I should try a oo flour crust someday.

Anyway, my crusts always turn out fine. It's the sauce
that I'm still trying to perfect. Don't even know what
I'm after but someday, I'll get it and know it's right.

This next one, my plan is to add just a tiny bit of sugar
to the sauce. Not enough to turn it sweet, just enough
to alter the taste a bit.

I'm always open to sauce suggestions.

No I really had a 1987 toyota supra! Suffice it to say I was the most
popular guy at work.

I don't doubt that you owned the Supra. What I meant to say was that you probably wish that you still had it. I wish I had the cars that I used to have during the 80's.

I had three cars during the 80s.
1974 Impala
1984 Chevette
1984 Honda Civic

The only one I miss is the Civic, and only when I'm parallel parking.

My first car was a used Torino. The exact model
car and green color in the movie.
I nearly waxed the paint off.

Indeed - I'd like to get a 90's Miata but my wife is deathly afraid of that idea. I remember my dad getting a convertible when I was around 6. It was just wonderful riding around in the night air. It was the kind of elation that a dog probably feels. That only happened one time. My mom probably put her foot down on that one. That car was gone, gone, gone, after that one ride. My dad was probably trying to sell on the idea. My dad was a great salesman but that was a no sale. My parents are lucky I didn't jump out of that car.

Oh dear! What a shame. I have always loved mine

Btw I have started to respond on here a bit differently. When I respond

reasonable quoting using the tradional appropriate number
of ">"'s is best for usenet. top posting is really icky.
inline replies i put a blank line because it is easier to
see.

is there no option for quoting in your newsreader?

The gentlemen make a serious point with humour!

There must be a reason ham and pineapple pizza is popular but surely it
can't be for its taste. Ham and pineapple as a dish is a strange enough
combination although sometimes eaten -- but how did it get ontop a pizza?

Although Hawaii is justifiably famous for pineapples, the combination of
ham and pineapple is not originally a Hawaiian dish. It reminds me of pork
with apple sauce and similar combos.

Let's just not call it pizza. I think we should all be rebelling at the
idea of changing recipes to the point where the fairly resemble the
original item. A good example is the Martina, a classic cocktail of gin
and dry Vermouth. You can vary the amount of gin and the garnish. It is
debatable whether it can be made with Vodka. Nowadays, people are making
all sorts of strange lady cocktails and calling them martinis because
they are serving them in martini glasses. It is time to stand up and
say no.

My son used to make that when he was into low carbs. It was okay. It's just a baked food dish. There's no reason to compare it to anything except baked cauliflower mash with stuff on top. He also used to make spaghetti squash with tomato sauce. Again, it is what it is. A vegetable dish with sauce. These dishes are just fine - if you're into vegetables.

Most, if not all, foods that are called "Hawaiian" and contain pineapple are not Hawaiian.

Don't you worry about a thing. I don't get confused - ever.

I saw a Jensen Interceptor on the street the other day. It was totally beautiful. I've always wanted one of those.

Some original Hawaiian dishes: loco moco, Spam musubi, poke. The hallmarks of Hawaiian dishes is simplicity, no herbs, and humbleness.

Back in the 60s, ham steak with a pineapple ring was the mainstay of
Berni Inn's menus in the UK.

Sometimes for a quick lunch I'll have nuked frozen cauliflower with
spaghetti sauce and provolone. It's good.

And if you're not into vegetables - you should be.

Poke isn't humble on the mainland. Sushi-grade fish is expensive.
