How is it that New York’s ex-governor Cuomo was removed from office and prosecuted for making a few women ‘feel uncomfortable’ — but not for mass murder?
Pizza is crust, thin please none of these thick crust abominations, dom pepino sauce, cheese, and olive oil, not too much.. Cooked in a coal fired oven.
Excuse-moi! My son and I make French Toast using eggs, milk, vanilla, and sliced brioche (imported from France, natch.) And the ONLY topping we use is warm pure Vermont dark amber maple syrup. Ambrosia! ;-)
Thick Texas Toast bread instead, nice firm and gooey. With a sprinkle of cinnamon for the smell. Add powder sugar. Otherwise, same. And I can actually eat them without getting sick, unlike pancakes (stupid sugar crashes). No I don’t know why I can eat French Toast and not pancakes and not have the reactive hypos trigger.
Our gluten-free pizza generally takes 3 hours from start to “that was really good”. :) Yeast does do some interesting things at altitude, especially when it’s warm. We also double-team the process, with $SPOUSE doing the crust and assembly, with me getting the goodies ready for assembly. Calico (AKA Colby-Jack) cheese actually works well on our pizza.
No idea why, but we both had to give up tomato paste. Apparently the extra citric acid plays hell with both of our GI systems.
Apropos of nothing, Gabriel Byrne’s first leading role in a movie was in a film called Defense of the Realm, in which Denholm Elliot played a supporting role. When asked what the experience was like, he replied:
“Never act with kids, animals, or Denholm Elliot!”
Quite possible if you didn’t have that friend, you were that friend.
And it wasn’t a llama. It was a stray cat. The traffic cone was orange and smelled of vomit and beer and questionable decision makin. The new friends were NotThatJeff, Kirby, and Jo. And the cuts and bruises were all deniable. As in, everyone denied knowing they even existed, the circumstances of the hypothetical injuries, where they might or might not have occurred, and any sirens that might have been heard over the music.
It was a dark and intermittently stormy night when [redacted] and I were driving the last leg into Chattanooga. We were tired. The rest of the NTTs had already reached the hotel. [Redacted] mentioned a telephone call from Law Dog. That got me started.

[pause] So, just to be clear, the locals were OK with you doing that, but using an illegally imported rare mammal to hit him wasn’t OK? [long pause as I nod and REDACTED laughed] No, do NOT tell me. It always sounds like a good idea at the time. Yes, we’ll get the cash. [another pause] The mammal had fun? Well, that’s a relief.
And so on. Because anyone who knows the North Texas Troublemakers knows that such a scenario is not just possible, but potentially probable.
