  1. Zzzzzzzzzzzzz Seems a lot of people have yet to realise that it doesn't matter who is elected US President - he or she will do exactly as they are told.

    Bingo ! People have got to stop drinking the Kool-aid.

    Gillard said it would have a "huge global impact"

    Of course! That's one Globalist puppet promoting another.

    More Clintons, Bushes, Obamas,etc? C'mon, seriously?. You have got to be out of your mind to support these traitors.

    None of these people are leaders. They are obedient political soldiers that follow the orders from their sponsors.

  2. I've never been to Italy, but I've been told the pizza in Italy doesn't taste at all like the pizza in the U.S. That may be what the OP is looking for and he's going to be disappointed here, although Duke's is close to American-style pizza.

    I have visited Italy many times, even been to the city of Pizza. Thought I would try a pizza while I was there, Sorely disappointed. I guess I prefer those American style deep dish pizzas ... tongue.png

    For those of you who have never been to Italy, but would like to know what real authentic Italian pizza tastes like, I can save you a trip. This is how to do it.

    - 1st step: take delivery pizza in a box.

    - 2nd step: vigorously shake box up and down, so that approximately 25% of the sauce and cheese adheres to the inside of the lid.

    3rd step: rip off the lid and flip over 180 deg, so sauce and cheese is now facing up.

    4th step: take the lid to an open burner on a gas stovetop, and excessively char and blacken the cardboard lid.

    Last step: sit down and eat your authentic tasting Italian pizza.

  3. Those NY pizzas in the photos look OK. Being a professional artisan bread and pizza baker, I've made thousands, I do see some problems with those pizzas though. The crust is too blonde. The oven temp should be hotter(more char and oven kick). Also the crust is too tight. The rim is flat, no life and bubbles. The dough was over mixed. Too much mixing over oxidizes the dough and makes the gluten matrix too tight. This results in a bland and lifeless crust. In the pizza world, Crust is king.

    You are correct but it beats ANY pizza in Thailand

    Hey, I found these NY pizzas over on Soi 11. (sorry just kidding)

  4. One thing I've learned in Thailand is that it does not matter how good pizza looks. You don't know until you taste it.

    It's funny you said that. Relating to bread, there was a famous 19th century French bread baker who said (loosely paraphrased), visually, if all aspects of a loaf of bread looks great, it will also taste great. Meaning it could never look great if all the right things were not done. Carmelization of crust, shaping, openings where bread was scored, oven kick, etc. At first I didn't believe him, but damnned if he wasn't right.

    But you are right about pizza. Too many variables. You could find a place that makes a magnificent crust(highly unlikely), but the sauce and/or chesse is crap. If any one thing is not right, the whole pizza suffers.

    Crust is king.If you think about it, pizza is flat bread with toppings. The sauce and cheese are toppings. You could have a pizza without sauce and cheese and it's still a pizza. There are famous pizzerias in New Haven Connecticut, that make pizzas topped with olive oil,fresh clams and herbs baked in coal fired ovens, and they're great. No tomato sauce or cheese. After eating one of those, no one would dare object to them being called pizza.

  6. I agree with you on both counts, but absolutely no one in Thailand has a crust that I like - a real New York crust - and The Duke's is better than most.

    U.G. you are right. Thailand needs real NYC pizza! NYC pizza is king of the world! Authentic Neopolitan pizza (when done well)has an excellent taste(char from 900f ovens,"00" flour,San Marzano tomatoes, Bufala(sic) mozzarella are all excellent). But, it is hoity toity. Too delicate and prissy to be called world's greatest. Leave the Neopolitan pizzas to frat boys named Biff.

    The best NYC pizza is far more robust and significant. Of course, more times than not, you'll hear it discredited on Thai Visa, by some "bloke from the culinary wasteland UK". Who once tried crap pizza in a Times Square tourist trap, and knight's himself "Sir condemnator of all that is NYC pizza".

    It's sad to see the ignorant, indoctrinated masses, favor tradition over true superiority. To say Neopolitan pizza is the greatest, "because pizza was invented in Italy"(debatable), is foolish. It's like saying the Egyptians invented beer, therefore the world's greatest beer can only come from Egypt. Or the first artists were cavemen, so caveman must be history's greatest artists. It's SO F@+K#*G STUPID !

    Finding great NYC pizza in NYC is not easy. Maybe 1 out of 20 places. Finding a great NYC pizza in Thailand? All of us New Yorkers are still waiting.

    Is 71 cuda a 71 barracuda

    a serious hot machine..

    You guessed it, That's the car.

    I don't know if a pizza thread Is the right place for American MuscleCar trivia. But since you asked, here it goes.

    The 'Cuda is the factory high performance version of the Barracuda base model. Initially, many first generation Barracudas were Hot Rodded for street racing. The slang name on the street was shortened to "'Cuda".

    When the factory decided to market it's own high performance model of the Barracuda, they used the street racer's slang 'Cuda. So the 'Cuda is the high performance model of the Barracuda. As is the Trans Am to the Firebird, or the Mach 1 to the Mustang.

    Heaven is cruising in a 1971 Hemi'Cuda convertible. Top down, on a warm sunny day. Packed with hot, oversexed chicks, NY pizza, cold beer and a few billion $$$ in the trunk.

  8. What makes an breakfast American?

    Must it have heartattack side effects?

    Must it just be a lot of food but greasy?

    Must the cook be a overweighted individual?

    Just curious!

    "Just curious" ah?

    Remember curiosity killed the cat. Don't be a cat, Wise ass.

  9. OK so whats the white critter with the red lips next to

    Superman

    And why is there a chick (as in chicken) in profile wearing shades to the right?

    I'm so confused.

    I think the chicken looking thing might be Howard the Duck painted yellow...dunno.

    The yellow bird is the "canary in the coal mine" wearing nuclear blast shades. He is expecting imminent doom

    or

    he is a Hitler chicken who is looking at the bright future of HFC.

    The white character with red lips represents the general public.

    confused, shapeless, hapless, lacking true knowledge of events. Yet it has a big mouth, that spews out spiteful, vitriolic rhetoric. Hate born out of a festering resentment of it's bondage by an elite cabal.

    Or

    It could just be Casper the friendly ghost.

  10. This mural is a warning.

    - first the images are superimposed over camouflage. Which represents war, secrecy, concealment, militarism,etc

    - next there are American Super Heroes. Only now they no longer appear friendly and have turned theatening and offensive.

    - Then red and gold china flag colors are combined.

    - Hitler is saluting the fascism that is growing in our world. Only now it's more subtle. Camouflaged by corrupt govts, Corporate journalism, MSM, fiat monetary systems,etc

    Could I please have some of what you are smoking? ;)
