NY style pizza is thin-crust, but not so thin that it gets crunchy. You have to be able to fold the slices in half so you can eat it walking down the street.

I had pan-fried trout for dinner and now I have a tiny bone lodged in the back of my throat that I can't shake loose. Any advice? It's not painful, just very very annoying. And being semi-phobic about fish bones isn't helping any.

I think it would be hard to remember that Spider-Man is hyphenated whan playing Password.

Why did no one tell me that Josh Jackson was going to be in a new show???? I just saw a preview when channel surfing!!!

Try eating a piece of bread, Jessica?

Now I *really* want some New York pizza. Damn. Ben's in the Village. Yum.

I ate a big plate of barley salad and it didn't help. The bone is kind of off to the side, right near my tonsil.

I vaguely recall being annoyed at a ditzy chick. I loved that they brought in actual sheep.

See - at the time, I worked with someone similar. Had I not been reading Bellwether on a plane, it would have been chucked out a window. And I would never have been amused/charmed by the sheep.

Don't think I don't see you going to all these cool places Kat. You too, the rest of you...

I have beachbabypixspam (here but locked to friends - [link] how do I post a guestpass? If I don't change it tonight, I'll change the link tomorrow. Or I can friend - too tired to type much less think.) & victorian house picspam (like this one, which is very pink & white. There was a pink and black one but DH was driving and wouldn't stop because I'd taken photos of too many already : [link] too - how do I post a guestpass? If I don't change it tonight, I'll change the link tomorrow. Or I can friend - too tired to type much less think.

eta - Yoiks Jessica. could it be gone, but have just scratched the surface?

You probably don't want to hear about when that happened to my sister when we were kids and traveling in Wales, do you? There was a toothbrush involved.

Um, that was sort of an unfortunate crosspost, but 3 have no advice on the fish bone besides water and coughing.

how do I post a guestpass?

The "share this" link in the upper-right corner, then "grab the link" then "grab the new link."

Maybe. I feel like I can still feel poking every now and then, though. It's one of those really small flexible ones that if you swallowed would be okay, only I haven't.

deep dish is tourist pizza.

Mmmm. I love tourist pizza.

(Does that mean if you're in Chicago, at, say, Giordano's and order a deep-dish tourist pizza, they immediately identify you as a tourist?

What about people in Chicago who *like* deep-dish tourist pizza? *Do* people in Chicago like deep-dish tourist pizza? If they do, do they have to wait until friends from out of town are visiting so that they have a pizza beard to act as their cover so that they can order deep-dish tourist pizza without fear of shame and reprisals?)

Cincinnati chili -- as described; runny-ish sauce-like meat-based stuff cooked with chocolate and cinnamon that's served over spaghetti with cheese on top, often but not always with beans and/or onions -- is actually Cincinnati chili. We don't do "tourist" chili and then eat Texas chili at home, sneering at the people who think that Skyline is really "Cincinnati" chili.

We, as a city, lack a sense of irony.

And we looooooove our fucked-up chili.

thanks Jessica. et voila:
