Ya hafta live in the New York Metro area to get <span style="font-weight: bold">real</span> pizza! ...

I have to agree. Lived there a few years (& in the LA area also) and in general, I think New York has the best pizza. (But no smelly little fish on mine, please.)


I got ~real~ pizza from me li'l Italian gran'ma...

But a real CHEESEBURGER came much later in life. :devilgrin:

would that be a cheeseburger in Paradise?
 
ummm....

You ain't lived until you've had a genuine, authentic New Mexican Green Chili Cheeseburger, with real New Mexican Hatch Green Chili!

Wha'tis WITH ya crazy New Mexicans 'n yer Green Chili??? I've eat'n it, 'n I didn't get it. So I ate it again, still... nope, I dun understand. So I tried it a 3rd time... and I gots t' tell ya... I think its all in yer head. Most'uv it tastes 'n looks like green goo from t' rump of that Slimer Fella from Ghost Busters.

Now, if y' said "Crawfish" then I'd be drooling 'long widd-ya!

But Green Chili... nah I dun think so. See a shrink. Git'er head fixed. Cuz I ain't hadda one that hadden ounce 'o flavor or spice.

An bout that Fancy New York'rs pizza... Juz cuz she's all greasy don't mean she b'longs in m' mouth. It jus means she in t' heat with too much fat. I'll be keeping m' $5 Little Ceasers if I wanna hava heart-a-tack, as she dun taste much betta. But I 'gree wit mosta ya bout how Jersey stinks.

Maybe dis done rile up some'a ya left-ern-ers an' t' nearly-canucks? May t' flavor wars begin!

Indeed. Since my son lives there I have a good excuse. Not a place I'd go without a good reason (but there are a lot of great attractions within reasonable distance, like Grand Canyon, Hoover Dam, Lake Meade, etc.
 
Personally, I'll take the Green Chili on anything, any day!
And you can keep tha Mud Puppies fer yerself!
As for Pizza I can take it or leave it, Mox Nix to me!
As fer Vegas, Been there done that got the tee too, dun need to go back less there is a Bluegrass Festival there I wanna attend.
As fer Gamblin, when the good lord asked me if I wanted and luck, I thought he said truck and I replied NO THANKS i'v got one.
The saying if it wern't for bad luck i'd have not luck at all ...... applies!
It is 100 miles to State Line {Wendover} Nevada from here, I won't go unless it is friday night and they have all you can eat sea food buffet. {NO there isn't any Mud Puppies included.} Slots, Dice and Cards don't interest me one Iota!

Sure...my Vegas wife! :devilgrin:

It's Courtney Hansen. She does the "ins-and outs" of Spike TV's Power Block. Also has been on Overhauled, Trucks, and numerous other car related shows.

She comes from a gearhead family and is actually REALLY nice in person.

Here's another Vegas wife - Jessie Coombs formerly of Extreme 4x4 - and she's also been on MythBusters. She was at the Lincoln Welders booth. Another very nice young lady.

His booth was right across from Courtney Hansen's booth.

He stared a lot in her direction.
