Very nice! I assume you have it on a patio or something? I want one of those at some point in my life. I have an old model that does charcoal/wood (and can get a propane attachment). Charcoal and wood is fun to play around with…but propane is probably a no brainer if you need to churn out quite a few pizzas or like simplicity. It is kind of an art to use. It takes awhile to figure out a good dough recipe, figure out how to do the temp right, figure out how to dry out cheese, figure out how to get the pizza in and out. If you like Neapolitan pizza it is incredible. I have made pizza that rivals even the fanciest Italian restaurant I have ever gone to. If you don’t like Neapolitan pizza these little pizza ovens don’t really make much sense. You can mess around and make Detroit style etc. in it…but just use your normal oven at that point. I bought mine when it was $300 for the Karu 12…or course COVID related issues have skyrocketed the price to $400.

I mean, wouldn’t shock me if we see the price go up here soon for YTTV
-
I checked into cable just for fun, once again, the intro price seems decent…until 3-4 boxes/plus DVR and then it is just LOL. I wish there was a cheap streaming option for the local channels (Fox/ABC/CBS) and then I can easily mooch off someone for ESPN and FS Wisconsin.
-
Okay, I retract my last statement....I need ESPN for Kansas Basketball. Does ESPN+ let you watch all of ESPN...the the main channel and stuff? If so, then still a net win money wise.
-
Isn't there an ATT one or something....though that and Direct TV are basically just cablebox-less cable.
-
I will take the extra $15 a month.

Just had Lou Malnati's, and I actually like Rockys a lot more. I get it's unique, but I get a huge craving for it every few months. Extra cheezy super-rony and side of breadsticks? Yes please. I really like Lou Malnati's thin crust It certainly gets overshadowed by the deep dish (which I think is overrated anyway). I always ordered that because I am not really a deep dish person...always offended my Chicago 'burb friends. That being said, if I remember right, it was really expensive. Like pushing almost $20 for a one topping large.

I also decided to try a pothole pizza. I went with the pepperoni, wife went for the supreme one. The pepperoni one honestly reminded me of making a homemade pizza with one of those pre-made pizza crusts you can get in the bag at the store. The sauce was also very basic and thick/pasty like a generic pizza sauce is. The cheese blend was really solid, as long as you like a garlicy cheese. It was thick, but wasn't like a Lottza Mottza that it is difficult to even bite without everything wanting to come of the crust. The supreme was actually pretty good too...though a bit spicy. The supreme had the sausage and I thought that was pretty good. However, the mushrooms were by far the most disgusting mushrooms (in any instance...pizza or not) that I have ever had in my life. The taste was horrid and the texture honestly made me want to gag and I like mushrooms. They honestly tasted like they sat in soapy dishwater and then got thrown on the pizza. For $4 it was a good pizza and probably hangs there with the $8 range frozen pizzas in general for the typical pizza lover. That being said, probably too greasy for me to buy again. Maybe on hand for a grease bomb when drinking one night. For similar taste I could just do the homemade one I mentioned earlier and have about 80% less grease.
-
It certainly does happen where they will throw someone out for this...even before an interview. They either assume you are going to ask for too much or they are worried you won't stay around for long.

Unfortunately for quite a bit of Wisconsin Charter is your only real option...heck some probably wish they had Charter...but even that isn't an option. TDS is moving into more and more areas, but their customer service has got to be 10x worse, especially if the service isn't already hooked up to your house (or even worse the community is in process of getting it) and you are the one dealing with that.

When I moved I decided to pick up the modem thing in the store the day before because they wouldn't ship it to a different address before hand. I stood there for over an hour and there were only like five people in front of me...literally all I was doing was picking the stupid thing up. Most of the time 2/3 employees were sitting on the computer helping no one. Some lady wanted to pay her bill and the only way to do it in person was some kiosk thing that wouldn't work. She said she was in there for over two hours and they basically shrugged and said, "idk, try again tomorrow, hopefully it is working then." Though one time I had to call them when setting up cell phone service and they were actually pretty nice/helpful...took like 10 minutes. I must have got the one decent employee they have.

Yah...unlikely. When does the consumer ever really benefit.

Love streaming services. Smart TVs combined with streaming services for the win. Can put a TV anywhere and get logged in…boom TV. Stick TV out on the patio in the summer, boom. Put a bunch of TVs on the wall for the home bar, boom. Put TV anywhere in the room and not have to worry about where the cable hook up is, boom. In almost two years I have never had to call YouTube TV and they never send someone to come in my house to fix things. No scam first year pricing and no massive price hikes. The only downside is no Brewers, but thankfully I have someone close enough to me to share their login information. I guess I’m just not attached to my TV shows and specific stations to need to bow down to cable to have everything. The Brewers are the closest thing, but I wouldn’t even consider paying cable prices to watch it on TV. Id just watch the national games and go to a handful in person…I’d be perfectly fine. I think I could do with an even cheaper option, but the wife demands Big Ten Network which I couldn’t care less about.

Shoot even a standard oven be getting cramped at that size.

I always want to like Red Baron....but it just looks better than it tastes in the end. Also, Romas aren't good...but they ain't the worst. That is Totinos....and really I don't think it can even be debated. To be honest I am not even sure how they even sell them anymore. What cult eats those things?
-
That's why I went with an Amazon Fire Stick. Amazon is big enough where Google can't bully them around. The Amazon Fire Stick can go forward or backwards 15 seconds using the remote. Right now you can get one half price for $20 on Best Buy. The problem is if Amazon and Google get in a tiff, Youtube and Youtube TV disappear from Firestick. Same with Chromecast and Amazon Prime. You will get teh "no longer supported" from them. Not completely true. Many times if you have it downloaded it stays on. When Roku dropped Youtube TV nothing happened on my end. I know there have been other instances where you are basically grandfathered in.

TIPO "00" I use the red bag Caputo, personally. Make sure to use a calculator to figure out the proper yeast needed and give yourself time the next day for the dough to warm up/finish rising.
-
Most be pretty local, never seen that one. Though the packaging and the pictures online honestly looking very "meh" for the price.
-
If Lottza Mottza or PotHole is your favorite pizza just admit all you want is grease and a disturbing amount of cheese/toppings with a sliver of crust to make it edible. I personally find it to be too much for the amount of crust. The taste isn't bad....but its just excessive for toppings. A toned down version would be better for me. I tend to get Portesi if I want to be fancy/expensive with my frozen pizza these days. I just can't decide if I hate the sauce or if it is decent. It is a very dark/pasty sauce that is hot with little sweetness. Not exactly my preferred style of sauce.

Someone being brutally gored by a bull warms your heart?

I always love when massive companies can't even bother with automated emails to just mass tell applicants they aren't moving on in the process. Some do, but many don't. I always feel you can learn a lot about how working for a company will be simply on the application process. How the job is posted, what is in the job posting, and how interviews are. Slow interview process with a million steps? Probably a good sign how trying to submit leave etc. is going to be.

Out of college I had an interview scheduled for a company that was a solid 6ish hours away, but they were going to pay for mileage so I was willing to drive. About a week before the interview they emailed me seeing if I wanted to just do it via video. I kind of figured they had already found someone and they wanted to get out of paying me to drive there so I declined the video interview option. Thought it was a little dumb they wouldn't just cancel it all together, but if they were going to waste my time I at least wanted to use them as a practice interview out of college. Of course after the interview they admitted they preferred someone experienced and it looked like they were going to have a few of those people to pick from. The best part was about a month or two later (after I accepted a job offer elsewhere) when they kept calling me and emailing me seeing if I was interested in the position still. Too often do I feel companies are focused on finding experience and not really taking into consideration how long that person may be hanging around. My current employer loves hiring people that everything about them says "I won't be around long".

I was goin to say this. You will probably save a massive amount the first year for intro TDS rates. I think their entry level internet is like $30. Now I think that goes up after the first year, but even then it is still less than Spectrum. Worst case you save a bunch of money for a year and then go back to Spectrum and save money for a year again. I thought Spectrum required you to be away from their service for two years...but I could be wrong. When it comes to my area I will probably just test it out the first year to save a little money on internet and they are going to rip up in the right of way to go past my house anyway...might as well have them do it to my house at the same time.

TDS internet is much faster. Is there customer service a pile of trash? Yeah, but then again if your other option is Spectrum can't say it is much better. TDS is typically cheaper, but I believe they do they same thing Spectrum does and makes it look better with a cheaper first year. A lot of people love TDS, but I have seen a lot of very upset people too. They do a really crummy job running the cable and often times will leave it half done for months or never come back to clean up their mess. If you get the service in the winter and your utilities are buried the cable will just chill on your lawn all winter. As you can imagine when spring comes they are ridiculously backed up and people end up have the cable on their lawn all spring/summer....hopefully getting buried before winter comes again. They really don't care about you at that point because you have service and are paying them. They are more worried about hooking up new customers so they can get more people paying them. My town has yet to get it because they refused to pay for any of the infrastructure setup as TDS didn't want to run cable out to service the rural part of town.

If y’all go can you scream incorrect player names (Rizzo, Baez, Bryant, )? I’d say Kimbrel too…but we know the closer won’t be seen too often anymore.
