Hey Don, How about fasting this week:) drink plenty of water and do some deep knee bends:cool: We had a shakey's it was ok. I grew up in New York where Pizza was very different from these places I see around here. In NY they could not sell these pizzas side dishes:cool:

[aero3113]

Anywhere outside of New York I don't even consider pizza pizza. I cant understand why other states are so bad. Can it be the water? If anyone wants to visit I will buy you the best pizza you ever tasted !!!(must show up in vintage mopar though)

There was a Shakey's in Boise a few years ago, Maybe five? A kind of dirty place but the food was not too bad. I don't think its open anymore.

Rodney;

I am in Boston not Brussels so I will pass on the sprouts. However I will try some Boston baked beans. I gotta maintain my form.

When I'm in Boston, I look for a bar selling lobster. Mmmmm. Thinking of trying the lobster pack from Long John Silver's next time I'm near one to see if it's any good.

[radioguy7]

No, no, the Secret Agent Spy Scopes, man!

Pizzeria Employee in "American Graffiti": "Shakey's Pizza." Wolfman Jack (as himself): "Uh, yeah, listen, you got anymore of those Secret Agent Spy Scopes?" Pizzeria: "Hit Parade on a Stethescope?" Wolfman: "No, no, the Secret Agent Spy Scopes, man! That pulls in the Moon, the Stars, the Planets, the satellites, and the little-bitty Spacemen." Pizzeria: "You must have the wrong number, Pardner!"

I remember going to a Shakey's Pizza in Boise when I was a kid...

According to a quick google search, it's still there, on Overland road.

Quote "That said guys, around here you can order hors d'oeuvres with your pizza. Things like Italian garlic bread, cheese sticks, salad, etc. Chicken fingers are also on menu's as hors d'oeuvres in a lot of places. I think Don may have either ordered two meals or pizza with the hors d'oeuvres. What I want to know is how Don ate all that stuff."

...when I was younger,no problem eating that amount along with a six-pack,ergo-no more "sixpack",

I'm agree with that. That's also what I said in this thread. However, he never did say if he ate all that.

[Plymouthy Adams]

if you should ask him in person, stand upwind...!!

I ate two pizza triangles (about 1/4's worth of the whole) and 2 chunks of the crappy chicken crap. The onion tasting fries and the onions went in the trash. The no tell hotel I an staying at has a snack thing every evening. Last evening they had mac and cheese. So I got that and chickened it up with the rest of the crappy chicken stuff. Still have 3/4 of the good pizza. So this evening what does the no tell hotel serve but pizza. It was so-so, so I still have 3/4 of the good pizza in the fridge. In the olden days I could drink a 6 pack before supper and a six pack after. These days two beers and I am all beered out unless it is a really hot day.

[Joe Flanagan]

So what else is going on up there at the no tell hotel? Or can't you tell. That's the first time I've heard that expression since my Dad used it many years ago.

[n1gzd_plymouth]

I don't think it's a Boston thing, I think it's a lousy hotel thing.

I live near boston and I have never heard of that. I would say that this is a lousy hotel thing.

Perhaps you could steer Don to some good eats locally, he seems to be having a hard time finding sustainence. Theres gotta be some good places in the North end.

He might like to play with you coupe while he is in the area also.
