I was wrong. Horrible food and super slow service. I never knew brisket contained so much gristle and they neglected the gravy on the poyatos and chicken. Lucille's BBQ is crap!!!!

'Axel F' played only using samples from 'Rockit'
For those of you too young to remember, 'Axel F' was the theme from 'Beverly Hills Cop' and 'Rockit' was one of the first trippy videos to show up on MTV, showing Herbie Hancock only on video monitors. That video, I am sure, also created a subculture of guys who enjoy looking at robotic mannequin legs.

Not quite a pic of a blue screen of death on a departure monitor in the airport, but it is still hilarious when the msn.com site redirects to a "Server Error in '/' Application" that is the bane of every asp.net programmer. Screengrab by me at 1:38pm, 01-07-07. It was doing this for about five minutes. I wonder how much ad revenue they lost?

A small pizzeria in a storefront in an older city neighborhood. A couple of red checkercloth covered tables, a long counter for standees and a line out the door. Best New York style pie in town. Two bucks gets you a slice of cheese and a small coke. You really can't beat that.
On a side note, if you are interested in a NY Style pizza and are stuck in a place without a good pizza joint, give http://www.iwantnypizza.com/ a shot. I am thinking about trying it out for the Super Bowl (Two Regular Classic New York thin Crust Pizza's & 2 dozen New York Style Garlic Knots for $30!)
