could Aaron Landry’s regular-guy pizza blogging be any more timely? I mean, it’s like he foretold the collapse of expense account dining as wrought by Wall Street. I wonder if he has any stock tips for us? Also, till waiting for his book on the Incredible Revolutionary Pizza Diet.

Re: Zimmern’s food blog.

“Plus, a culinary death match with dozens of local Portland chefs, a day of lobstering with Linda Greenlaw, and, of course, plenty of moose and beaver.”

Andrew, did you get a Palinoscopy?

I watched some Bizarre Foods last night during timeouts of the FANTASTIC Oklahoma-Davidson hoops game (god, I wish I could shoot like that Curry kid).

I have to say that while I enjoy
Zimmern’s food opinions, watching him gnaw at a lobster surfside is reminiscent of watching bovine birthing videos.

Not very hard to get a free pickle at the 10th Street JJ’s downtown. Just tell them you were supposed to get a pickle when they hand you your sammie. They rarely have any idea what you actually paid for.

That and they owe me for the many times I have paid for hot pepper and never received them.

Wait, people get free pickles at Jimmy Johns? Bastards.

I think the comments are pretty damn funny. The local “famous” really do have problems, don’t they.

If this were a similar fight in my line of work it would go like this:

“I can’t believe that woman from Hennepin County got a free pickle at Jimmy Johns.”

Then we would bitch in the comments about how Hennepin thinks they run the State.

A guy sings a couple Show Tunes, and suddenly the rumor mill starts.
