And with this kind of thing, we deserve it. Sun Mar 15 07:11:13 -0700 2009 4506090 19113 Pylon 1 4506395 I think it doubles as a do-it-yourself x-ray machine. Wonder if they have their marketing correct, do Americans or Italians really want this? Maybe it'll take off in Japan.

Has any one out there seen "Idiocracy"?

That's not a pizza, it's a biscuit with tomato sauce and cheese. Mon Mar 16 11:59:13 -0700 2009 4506090 14386 BobB 2 4509796 I LOVE a thin - biscuit like crust - so I'd probably like it !! (depending on the sauce and cheese of course) Mon Mar 16 12:03:25 -0700 2009 4509784 174753 NellyNel
