Agreed. The mom & pop places have the best pizza as a general rule. That's what I meant by "NYC pizza". Everytime I've had pizza there it was from a small mom & pop restaurant and it was always great.

Yes, agreed on Mom and Pop pizza being best in my experience.

Well, if you get tired of the mediocre pizza choices, cat food looks just as tasty.

Some of those commercials push the boundary on who the food is meant for. It's just missing the salad and glass of Shiraz to go with it, though.

Hey, some people pay good money for portions in fancy places that look like that.

That lady is fibbing though, if you've ever smelled that stuff the last thing you'll do is smile. Cats seem to like the expensive jellied chicken paste though so who am I to judge?

Oh yeah.
That 1/3 scale would certainly go along with my 1/4 scale Mustang!
Really nice job. smile

Lots of work involved there.
How long did it take you to build that?
Bi-Wing....and balsa....a tough build.
Not like the plastic ones that came out later, with 1/6 scale.

Really nice paint/monocoat too.

LOTS of time wink

Did it fly well?
What kind of power did you have in it?

Bi-wings are touchy to fly.

Has anyone ever seen other than wrong advertising ?

I mean, really, products designed to fail and all this dumb consumer stuff perpetrated by marketing lobbyist a-holes.

Products will disappoint you. Everytime.

I think there is something a bit different that goes on with food, though- nothing is as blatantly deceptive or even outright outside the bounds of reality. There is a lot of that everywhere, but none so much as done in the food industry, although the next best thing is join the Navy, report to your submarine in your cherry red convertible.

Well, I've had women appear almost by magic and suddenly life became like a party when beer was involved. So that's sort of true.
