I have a friend who worked as a driver for Pizza Hut. He was buddies with a few other drivers from various pizza places. I asked him what the most disgusting thing he had ever heard of was and he told me that at the local Domino's two employees were known to have sex atop of the pizza frequently.

That was Pizza Hut's new pizza, "The Budussy Supreme"

Frequently? And "were known"? Why weren't they fired after the first time? O.o


Not certain if they were fired for it. I doubt the management knew anything about it. (Or maybe they were the management.)

I have never found a good Italian restaurant in the US apart from my mom's kitchen. Pizza Hut's pasta is the worst. Besides being overcooked, overheated, crusty, and overall bad tasting, the sauce is worse than Ragu.

Their pizza is also pretty bad. However, one of the best Pizza's I have ever tasted was at a Pizza Hut in Germany. We ordered a 4 cheese pizza. They made it the American way (lots of cheese - I'm a cheese lover), but used fresh ingredients throughout. Fresh bread, fresh cheese, you could even taste the olive oil. It was wonderful.

One odd thing about Beijing is that McDonald's, KFC, Starbucks, and Pizza Hut are actually incredibly expensive relative to traditional restaurants and eateries. But they are still very popular.

Camp Virginia is to the North of Kuwait City in an area called Jahra, I guess it was the staging ground and crossing point for the maneuver warfare plan of General Mattis and coalition forces because it's the closest point to entry into Basra, Nassariya and the oil wells.
Camp Arifijan is to the South of Kuwait City, near the Ali Al Salem airbase and serves as a logistics base, motor pool, helicopter support base and repair base for any elements in the Southwest Asian Theater.
Camp Victory is located near the Baghdad International Airport, this is where most of USO come through, also features a Subway and Pizza Hut.
I wonder where they do deployments now. Makes sense to just shuttle people into Baghdad but I don't think that is possible logistically.



Hmm.. maybe it wasn't camp Victory. I was in Kuwait both before and after.

[edit] I'm pretty sure it was. I see Victory closed in 2006. I was there in 2005.

It's all well and good to say it, but it is all down to prep time... and also cost.

I quite dislike Pizza Hut, Dominoes etc. BUT find a nice local (non chain) pizza place and for $5.90 you get yourself a damn nice pizza with no creation time on your part, and cheaper than the ingredients alone would cost you.

Yes we (me myself and my kids) make pizzas ourselves sometimes, but I'll be buggered if we a) have the time to always do so, and b) can afford the ingredients to always do so.

Really, rallying against any and all food stores is getting a little ridiculous choggie... are you sure you wouldn't prefer to be on a ranch, off the power grid, off the interweb, disconnected from all living things? It certainly sounds that way sometimes.

Good points, and largely in agreement.
Whereas individuals have restraint by rule of law (where it applies), sovereign states have none. The United Nations is not going to pull you over, put you in handcuffs and take you to jail if you are a misbehaving country.
Whether it's the Tasmanians, Australian Aborigines, Incas, Aztecs, or Native American Indians, it's the same story. Imperialist expansion doomed them all. Was it inevitable? History would seem to suggest that when competing civilizations collide, the weaker gets assimilated or consumed. Still it's a stain on humanity that these "indigenous" peoples were almost uniformly demoted to "sub-human" status so that displacement or extermination could be rationalized or justified.

I wish I could say it was different today. The recent genocides (although not in the eyes of the UN) in Rwanda and the Sudan suggest otherwise. Rwanda interests me in particular. It's one of the poorest nations on earth. Christian influence there is helping to heal the scars of that tragedy. I'm no saint, I'm just fortunate enough to have the opportunity, but I have provided medical equipment and supplies to the remote villages of Rwanda. My wife has worked in jungle clinics there, seeing children suffering from malaria, typhoid, and parasitic infections. It's frustrating not to be able to do more, but you do what you can do.

I got off the subject here, but my point is this....There is a huge amount of international charity work being done world-wide by Christian organizations. Let's not drag them thru the mud because some nuts are trying to convert people in a war zone.

The conflict in the Middle East in not about religion, you are absolutely right about that. It's about globalization. It's about the resultant loss of cultural identity and respect. From the US standpoint, it's also about oil, that should be evident to everyone.

Globalization is not going to stop because some want it to. We have to be realists about that. This is what makes the modern day situation so different from the past. Citing precedent, (in prior international conflicts) loses much in translation to the modern day situation. Communication, transportation, and world trade are making the earth smaller by the day. Intolerant and inflexible societies are at risk in this new paradigm, not so much from the outside but from the inside, as the new generation adopts the global (western if you want to call it that), ways. People say we should appeal to the "moderates" in these countries. The problem is, many of the moderates, with the means to do so, have left and are now living in the US or Europe. That's the "brain-drain" we've heard so much about. Most of the moderates were professionals, university professors, etc. So, the remaining are the most hard-line and fundamentalist. That makes it tough.

Tragically, the weakest societies are at risk of just getting run over completely. As you pointed out, it happened in our own backyard with the American Indian.

I really lament the homogenization of the US I've seen in my lifetime. Standing on any corner, of any street, in any town you see the same McDonalds, Pizza Huts, Walmarts, etc. Is that the fate of the world? God, let's hope not.

From Slice:
"Earlier in 2002 we were hired by the largest advertising firm in the country to write music for a Pizza Hut commercial. Pizza Hut had hired them to come up with a whole new image to promote their new Pizza, "The Insider" which had all the cheese inside the crust. In keeping in line with their new cutting edge image, the agency hired Ween to do the music, and we delivered in a big way. Unfortunately, they didn't like a single piece of the 6 tunes we submitted and they had us rewriting the song every day for a couple of weeks before they hired someone else. In my opinion, it is one of the best tunes we wrote all last year."
Make sure you listen to the 'gangsta' version .
