Ewww. Though in Taiwan they put seafood on pizza. The Costco combo pizza was something like Shrimp and one other seafood. It actually wasn't bad. Generally I do not get seafood on my pizza, but we wanted to try a slice.
The Golden State Warriors hosted the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday night, in a showdown between the two guards elected as Western Conference All-Star starters, Steph Curry and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.
DALLAS – Rytis Petraitis double-doubled with 18 points and 10 rebounds and two other Golden Bears finished with double-figure points but the California men's basketball team's three-game win streak was snapped with a 76-65 loss at SMU on Wednesday.
THOUSAND OAKS – The California men's golf team climbed two spots into a ninth-place finish with a 4-under-par 280 in the third round of the Southwestern Invitational on Wednesday.
Cal's third-round 280 at Sherwood Country Club was the fourth-lowest third-round score from a competitive 14-team field, which saw No. 5 Texas claim the title with an 8-under-par (844) 54-hole score. The Golden Bears finished at 15-over-par for the tournament. Junior Daniel Heo and freshman Ziqin (Eric) Zhou paced the Bears on Wednesday with third-round scores of 68 and 69, respectively.
The California track & field team will split its squad for the first time this weekend, with the distance runners headed north to the UW Invitational in Seattle and the rest returning to Albuquerque, N.M., for the New Mexico Team Open. Both meets will begin Friday and span two days.
The No. 3 California men's swimming & diving team will face off against rival No. 9 Stanford for the second time this season to close out the regular season at Spieker Aquatics Complex in Berkeley on Friday. In the last meeting earlier this season, Cal bested Stanford, 181-172, in a double dual tri-meet with Arizona State. Coverage for Friday's meet will be available on ACCNX/ESPN+ and Meet Mobile.
Listened to SplitZoneDuo podcast yesterday, their recap of the cfb season per their commentators predictions. Sigh, early on I heard mention of Florida State and their "sole FBS win by 5 over Cal" entirely regarding a FSU prediction. Well, I thought, that's out of the way. No toward the end of p-cast it was repeated over and over to emphasize FSU shortcomings....with Cal just along for the ride...but I could hear the dog or bear whistle.
When they reviewed the most interesting games of the season, Cal - Miami came up in passing with the take home word being "messy."
This is at the basis of my unhappiness with campus administration's support of Cal football: the loss to FSU is just more evidence that football is tolerated a whole lot. If they could find a way to ditch football without bringing on a firestorm of criticism, they would.
It's way past time to punch back on these creeps that want to burn down everything. It's more likely that the GOP's longtime hostility towards air traffic controllers (since Reagan fired all of them in 1981) is to blame.
Democrats need to have a unified message and punch back. Go low, no more moral high ground. If Biden were still president, trump would have tweeted immediately that this was all Biden fault. Hell, he is currently blaming this on Biden and Dems and DEI.
I heard Trump had letters sent to ATC that they should quit? Is this true first of all, and secondly why? Not that this a$$hole ever needs any valid reason to do anything. He and all his cronies make me sick to my stomach. How many more days do we have to go?
Yeah, when I happened to turn the tv on he was rambling so bad I almost, but not quite, felt sorry for him. But it was sorry to watch the President be so out of it.
99% of what I know about Faberge eggs is from the movie Octopussy. I recall seeing one in London and thought it was an interesting piece of engineering, but the whole thing seemed like doing something difficult for difficulty's sake - something only a monarch could command people to commit so many resources to do. It made me feel slightly uneasy about it because it seemed like... exploitation.

Unliked pizza
I'm a big fan of anchovies on pizza. So much umami.
And it's defense against my wife ordering a salad and then deciding that half of my pizza was actually what she wanted for dinner.
No 1 likes eating anchovies straight from the can. He did put some on one of the pizzas I made and I will have to say, it wasn't too bad, in limited quantity. I guess my tastes have changed a little since I was little.
I think anchovies is an ingredient in Caesar salad. Also A-1 steak sauce.
Anchovies definitely are. Not sure about A-1 though.
Sorry, I meant Worcestershire sauce!
Yes I think so.
https://www.frysfood.com/p/lea-perrins-the-original-worcestershire-sauce/0005160000004
Ingredients
Distilled White Vinegar, Molasses, Sugar, Water, Salt, Onions, Anchovies, Garlic, Cloves, Tamarind Extract, Natural Flavorings, Chili Pepper Extract.
Allergen Info
Contains Fish and their derivates.
Anything with Pineapple. Fruit (tomatoes excepted) do not belong on pizza.
If people want fruit on their pizza it very much belongs for them. I don't know why folks worry about what other people have on their pizza.
Freedom of choice is a great thing. More for me, then!
Agree. Hard to beat the combo of savory (pepperoni or Canadian bacon) with pineapple for me.
Back in the day, a Japanese friend and I liked to put squid on pizza we made. Strangely, a lot of non-Asian people didn’t like it.
I tried anchovy pizza once. Never again.
I never tried it once. And never again is still too often!
When I did my EAP year abroad in England, tuna and corn pizza was all the rage. I did NOT adopt that Britishism.
Ewww. Though in Taiwan they put seafood on pizza. The Costco combo pizza was something like Shrimp and one other seafood. It actually wasn't bad. Generally I do not get seafood on my pizza, but we wanted to try a slice.
Speaking of ewww. All the mayonnaise and corn on pizzas in Asia.
That sounds remarkably random.

I'm... surprised.
If anyone decided to stop watching after the first quarter, they'd be shocked.

I love how everyone just knows what the cause of a tragic event was immediately after it happens. No need to investigate or anything!
I just turned on the TV and that is all Trump is talking about. No mention of the families.
And just like that, Trump goes straight to blaming the democrats for putting politics over safety. I hired the smartest ATC people ever!
Now he's just rambling.
All he had to do was STFU after talking about the crash and the deaths.
Yeah, when I happened to turn the tv on he was rambling so bad I almost, but not quite, felt sorry for him. But it was sorry to watch the President be so out of it.

Are Fabergé eggs better scrambled or poached?
99% of what I know about Faberge eggs is from the movie Octopussy. I recall seeing one in London and thought it was an interesting piece of engineering, but the whole thing seemed like doing something difficult for difficulty's sake - something only a monarch could command people to commit so many resources to do. It made me feel slightly uneasy about it because it seemed like... exploitation.
I had forgotten about that in Octopussy. I learned how to steal one by watching Oceans 12.
