During my long walk, in about the middle of Missouri (about 20 or 30 miles east of Jefferson City, I think), there was a sheriff deputy who stopped and asked me if I was OK; if I needed any help. He didn't fuck with me or anything; just did what cops are supposed to do. When I told him I was...

I think this video is a great NY style stretching tutorial. I actually meant to do it this way, but for some reason I forgot. This guy can outstretch me any day because he does/did it for a living, I'm guessing in Brooklyn (and because I'm falling apart).

I was already nuts, but it made me nuts, too.

Everyone (Americans) please get to know the US Constitution's 4th Amendment very well. It is your friend. NEVER cooperate with a cop if he/she doesn't have a search warrant or hasn't already witnessed you commit an infraction of the law. And in those cases, maybe still don't cooperate. Assume...

Update: I still haven't taken any more gabapentin. I think it's been around 8 days now. It feels like I may still experience some withdrawal and "side effects," but I can't say it's been too bad. I've noticed some of what feels like the same kind of itching I experienced when I went cold turkey...

I haven't driven in just over a year. Does being high on my power chair at 6 mph count? I could fuck some shit up with that thing.

I miss my Aromed.

Oh yeah. Pizzamaking.com member Floridian did some dumpster diving at Tommy's last fall while he was in town for an OSU football game; first while I was with him at the Upper Arlington location, then the next day at the OSU location. Now we know exactly what brands of flour, tomato product...

Have you ever followed the "Vinnie Pie" thread on pizzamaking.com? I was really into it (maybe two or three years ago), but then someone pissed me off and I've never been back to that thread. EDIT: I just watched both of my New York style videos (Part I and Part II) for the first time since...

And PennMac (without having to pay ridiculous shipping costs)!

Man, if you had only put that on a paper plate (or 2), it would be nearly impossible to tell which slice joint in New York or New Jersey it came from. 24-hour dough? Or very long, same-day, room-temperature ferment? I hope mine look anywhere near that good.

Did you make that? If so, then we're off to a very good restart of this thread. (Which you knew before me.)

I use a stone even when I use pans. I only use pans when making styles that are shaped by the pan (like deep dish) or when I'm trying to clone a pizza I know bakes on a pan; like Tommy's in Upper Arlington, but not Tommy's two miles away, across from OSU.

If I was to go back 20 years (almost to the day), when I started making pizza (total beginner), when there was essentially nothing useful about pizzamaking on the essentially brand new internet, this is what I would want someone to tell me. Pizzamaking Lesson 1: Get a scale and a stone (or kiln...

Even though I didn't mention it in the video, the key here is to put a few normal pipe screens into the chamber above the bowl. If I hadn't done that, I'd probably need to stack about six chambers above the bowl. The screens cause some draw resistance, which causes the flame to lose its...

Just remembered: I also tried a hair dryer with a Volcano solid valve. Didn't work, probably because the hair dryer blows too fast. However, when I hold my hand just in front of the powered-on hair dryer, it feels very similar to when I hold my hand just above the fan-on Volcano at max...

Do I sound as arrogant to others as I just sounded to myself when I re-read my first post here?

Which part? The weird face(s)? He speaks? EDIT: I just tried this for the first time in a while, and it's actually pretty fun and enjoyable. Tasty, too. Three screens in the top chamber seems to discourage accidental combustion completely. (I only had two screens in there during the video session.)

@vtac guided me here.

How have I never consciously noticed this board before? I made a little tweak or two immediately after filming this video (since I clearly combusted a tiny bit in the video). Consult the video description for tweak information.
