Pizza Smakk
Was down in the ATX for a couple days and hung out with Drunk Steve. After a half dozen beers at Docs, we decided to journey (as in drive, not the band) down South Congress Ave for some grub. So we hit Home Slice Pizza for some Italian pies and more beer. Great pizza, great atmosphere and they serve Pabst Blue Ribbon in a can. So got me thinking about my favorite Pizza joints in order:
10. Ella's Wood Fire Pizza - Washington, DC (it's in Chinatown?)
9. Brick's - Chicago, IL
8. LA Gourmet - Dallas, TX
7. Mellow Mushroom - all over
6. Da Pizza Joint -South Padre Island, TX
5. Pizza Port Brewing Company - Carlsbad, CA
4. Home Slice - Austin, TX
3. Campisi's - Dallas, TX
2. Fellini's - Atlanta, GA
1. Off the pavement of 6th Street in Austin after Loops drops the whole pie

And before I get any of your lame opinions - no, I still haven't tried Fireside Pies off Knox. Later all...

Scary Smakk
I will try to get this post out as quickly as possible. I am a little tired from last night still and can't wait to hit the 2x3 inch square of fabric that I'm supposed to call bed. Last night was the scariest night of my life. Yes, first night at Smakk's house was also scary. Also, the time he kicked the door down and of course the day Bunny poured out the bottle of Captain. Anyway, last night I'm minding my own business hanging out in the kitchen trying to look hungry when the doorbell rings. I begin my ferocious sounding bark. I sound scary. In fact, I kind of scare myself doing it. Ron opens the door and this freakish looking short human is dressed up in some sort of costume. Lots of fur and makeup and giggling. I cower away from the door. Then the thing reaches into a bowl of what I thought were treats for me and takes a handful of the treats and runs away. I start up the bark again. How dare that thing take my treats! After this I was put in the back yard. I was forced to watch and bark through the window for at least a hour as more tiny humans came and took more of my treats. Then the real horror began. They moved me into the bedroom with the cat. Cat and I were locked in a room together for what felt like days as she pounced on me and tormented me before she fell asleep on my "bed". Needless to say, I'm exhausted. Next year I will do all I can to keep this from happening again. When I see them carving another one of these things I will be ready. -Carrot

Quote Smakk
There are always some memorable quotes that come out from our Saturday morning golf game but the best one from this past weekend came from an unlikely source - The Course Marshall. As Loops is relieving himself in the woods by the tee box of hole 15, the Marshall comes driving right on by Loops while he's in mid stream. As he passes us, the Marshall yells out, "I just caught your buddy with his dick in his hand." Haha - that is classic stuff.
