Website says... Not sure when they closed either, (apparently sometime after Feb 3 if your wife was there). But, given their website referenced Covid cases in January and that they've had an exposure, I thought "closed for about a month or more due to covid" was a pretty fair statement. With what's posted on their website, I assumed they closed around the end of January or beginning of February, so that would be about a month, but it could have been more. And there's clearly no doubt it is definitely due to covid. Not sure what was wrong about what I said?

Yes: Pools are worth it....
This is where mine’s at. I guess the one silver lining to the mess our pool project has been.

[SERIOUS] The I need help, my house is freezing thread
If anyone needs propane in the Dallas area, hit me up. I oddly happen to have a surplus of the grill sized bottles in my garage right now, if it would help anybody.

Yeah, no shit. That's a great looking tortellini dish @BearCountry11.

Favorite Hot Sauce
Based on my findings so far, y'all are seriously overrating that Secret Aardvark stuff. It's okay, but it's nowhere near the Marie Sharp's or Melinda's.

I figured that might be the case. We rarely go out downtown, but will gladly make an exception for any place you're backing/endorsing. Looking forward to both.

The Sopranos
Nah...the Sopranos is like sex and pizza, even the worst are still pretty good. Even the shittiest episodes still have a little bit of gold in them.

Looks like Jimmy's has closed for about a month or more due to covid, according to their website. I'm guessing they must be pretty resilient when it comes to all this shit, in terms of not being in real trouble of closing permanently, but damn they have to be taking it in the shorts this last year. Of course, I don't really think they've always done themselves any favors with their operating model during covid either. I mean, I guess they kind of started offering a very cumbersome curbside model with their groceries, but they also did away with their lunches altogether from what I could tell. Seems they could have come up with a curbside model for that if they really needed the revenue. To me, that was a much bigger reason for going to Jimmys. Honestly, I can order just about anything they sell from Amazon these days. Or Eataly is on Instacart and has everything Jimmy's has times 10. But, what the hell do I know? Love that place...hope they make it.

Homemade Pizza Tips...Just the Tips
I don't have an Ooni so other people's MMV. But I just use the same metal peel for everything. I may not know what I'm missing, but haven't ever felt the need for a specific turning one or a wooden one. I don't get all that into making dough so I just get that pre-made from Central Market or Whole Foods (both are pretty good). Grease never worth the squeak for me, personally. But, I also don't like to bake. On the pepperoni, I've tried a lot of different ones and Molinari & Sons and Fiorucci are my two favorites (again I think both available from CM or WF) but people also love DeLallo which would be a close second for me. Take the time to read this whole thread. There's a ton of knowledge in here.

The Boat Fanatic Thread
No truer words. You were right. Shoulda been more confident in it. Also, no truer words. Gotta trust your gut and do what works for you on some of this shit. Not saying you should spend half a mil on a Riva, but you seem like the kinda guy who might appreciate at least a Chris-Craft. If I was buying a day boat, the list would begin and end with a Chris-Craft Corsair.

For me, it's more about the stying (fit & finish). I see one and I just know it's gonna be sexy as hell. And...upon closer inspection, it always is.

Damn that's cool as hell man. Nice work!! Now, you need to get her some Mario Luca Giusti dishes. From everything I know, it's THEE best there is when it comes to yacht ware. The Tessa Blue collection would look amazing with that tile work. Here's some that I got, although we (and by "we" I mean Mrs Landomatic) decided "we" are probably not going to use it (doesn't really go with the new boat, but will be replacing it with more Mario Luca stuff). This shit is legit...all plastic.
