As for brick oven pizza, I agree - Bertucci's is great pizza. They do have odd topings, but it is fun to try. I'm also a big fan of California Pizza kitchen.


The best grocery stores I've EVER been to are the Lund's and Byerly's up in the Twin Cities. I've never seen anything close to it. They have a cheese specialist to assist customers because they have so much cheese. They have an olive bar with 10 different kinds of imported olives. The best meats. The best bakery. The store is carpeted. They have a coffee shop with rustic fireplace. Has anyone ever been to Lund/Byerly's?

I realized I spelled Bertucci's wrong after I left. But I don't think they have any in Chicago anymore(at least from what I saw on their website).
:( We had a department meeting there with my former job out here. They bought like 12 pizzas for like 20 peopple. There were several of us chepskates who brought a bunch home.

Here is the pizza menu.

I have to admit when I have cheap hot dogs at home, I put some on. I won't put it on GOOD hot dogs though. :shhh:

Or if you are the Toledo fans, you say at halftime, 'we need ta ketchup' when ordering your dogs at the concession stand. lmfao

Actually, Toledo fans didn't realize that there was such a thing as a good hotdog.

How does one university find so many neanderthals? I guess you guys walk on your knuckles, also? :moon:

You seem to have confused your two universities - UT is the one that let's anyone in, while Miami is the one that requires the wine and soft cheese degree.

Nah, he just doesn't hang out here all day like some of these other posters do. Those folks are suffering from serious addiction to message boards. They even like to change their avatars around every once in a while to keep their sanity :cookiemonster:

The Toledo knobs sure do love lurking the NIU board, eh?

Well considering their likely unemployed social dweebs what else would U expect lmfao lmfao lmfao lmfao lmfao

In terms of MAC football recruiting NIU owns Wisconsin, Minnesota and Missouri. NIU is actually #2 on the pecking order in both WI & MN and #4 or #5 in MO after Kansas & KSU (who don't recruit MO as much as they used to)

WI, MN & MO populationwise are growing much faster than the rest of the midwest (except IN) and each has only 1 instate 1A football program. WI & MN in the 2000 census passed MI by 250K and are only 750K behind OH, they will equal or pass OH by 2010-2015. MO has 90% of IN's population and BSU has to compete with 3 better BCS programs for instate talent. Illinois passed PA in the 2000 census also.

NIU has the upper hand in a population recruiting base that is nearly as large as IN,OH & PA combined currently and will equal those 3 states that have 15 D1A programs by 2010. Wins over OH St & Iowa will not only solidify NIU"s advantage in those states but will enable Joe Novak to keep better instate talent from going to out of state BCS programs.

Good points! A few MACC titles will go a long way to keep more talent in state but the competition for talent will still remain fierce. We've come a long way since 1998.....!

Hey, I'm looking forward to playing PSU in the near future.

It took me twelve seconds to come up with, it took me 6 days to be bored enough to coming back to this moronic thread.

It's probably unAmerican but I don't like nor hardly ever eat "hotdogs".....but I do like many smoked sausages, brats, etc.
