Bah, "chain pizza"! :angry: Pizza Hut is THE GREATEST PIZZA IN THE WORLD!!! :D

I'll make sure and stick the track's phone number in my wallet as I don't have a cell phone. I'll call if one of the mules pulls up lame or a spoke falls out of one of the wheels of the buckboard wagon. :D

Yo, Ray,

Looks like that manure-mixing Tex put one over on you. I clearly felt the tug on my leg when I read that first pizza post.

If he keeps insisting that Pizza Hut makes the best pizza after he gets to Chicago, we'll probably have to ship that mule and buckboard back home to his family, as I suspect Tex'll get fitted for some QuikCrete loafers...

:laugh2:

I have an old Springsteen bootleg album where mid-song he tells a story about his car breaking down and coming across a mystical old women sitting at a campfire in the middle-of-nowhere.
Despite him and Clarence looking like a "couple of bums",she agrees to grant him one wish.
Before finally deciding on "I wanna be a Rock n' Roll stahhhhhh" he does "seriously" consider a new transmission for his crappy car OR owning his own Pizza Hut". :rolleyes:

Tex:

As you crooooze into Chi-Town make sure that you have lotsa qwahtahs. The toll booths get more and more frequent the closer you get to the center of town. The closer in you get, you will find that you will pay more and more to drive on worse and worse roads.

Then again, they may have fixed all this by now....I mean heck, the place IS run by Democrats.

Wish I could be there...... :D

Tex,

I think you ought to order pizzas with Jay Guard's favorite toppings (and I am NOT kidding): double jalapenos and double anchovies!

Yeah, it sounded crazy to me, too, but it's not bad at all!

How crazy a Texan are you? :laugh2:

Pizza Toppings...

I'm an old-fashioned kinda guy... sausage and pepperoni (ON TOP).

Some places actually put it under the cheese... Has to be on the top. (crispy)

I was gonna suggest one of those Uno "deep dish" pies for ole Tex... but you locals probably consider Uno's a "chain" joint, too. ;)

What is the toll these days on the 294 Tri-State Tollway?

Ron,

In the cash lanes it's $1, 50 cents if you use I-Pass and you just keep driving... Whatever you use in Indiana works here.

BTW, Uno's pies are excellent...

I remember when the toll road was a scant 35 cents... LOL. No I-Pass here... Does one need $1 in change or does the "basket" take one dollar bills??? LOL.

I remember when a large Uno pie was a scant 14 bucks... LOL.

It's set up now if you don't have an I-pass, you'll go to the right and there will be booths with attendants that will
make change.

I think I had an "Uno" about 20 years ago when I was in Chicago; it was good.
