OT: Do You Believe in Bigfoot?
Do you believe in Bigfoot? Have you ever had a sighting yourself? Or a family story or a friend or a friend of a friend? We have a huge percentage of our RR readers in Missouri, where there's always been a lot of Bigfoot/Momo/Legend of Boggy Creek monster mythology floating around. (Database of sightings for Missouri.)

If only he could make a Bigfoot-type face
He would have intimidated the hell out of opposing batters.

Bloomquist. God? Or just an illusion? You be the judge.

No -- but shouldn't this be somehow connected with Andy Sisco?
Anyhoo he’s “big” (har har) up in Canada, I think. I remember when I was getting my high-speed internet hooked up years ago up here, me and the rep from Bell were waiting for something to go through, and we got to talking about Bigfoot, and I was sort of laughing about how many people seriously believed in it, and this guy… well, it became apparent that he did, because once when he was out camping, during the night he and his friends “heard some crazy screams that sounded like nothing they’d ever heard before.” There’s some great reasoning.
That’s sales rep’s name? That’s right: J. J. Piccolo.
I kid, I kid.

one thing I have learned watching one of the 1000 tv shows about bigfoot
is that elk actually make really strange, scary sounds
of course, it was like the 900th show that pointed this out, and played an elk tape
Does anyone else remember Pizza Hut's "Bigfoot Pizza" from the early-to-mid 90s?
it didn’t last long, but it was big, sqaure, and really good. It turned out the secret was whole milk cheese, which you could only get on the Bigfoot.

I was... young
I spent money on dumb stuff. I dunno. It was a lot of pizza, though.

according to one random internet site
In 2007, $10.99 from 1993 is worth:
$15.77 using the Consumer Price Index
$14.90 using the GDP deflator
$17.77 using the value of consumer bundle
$16.43 using the unskilled wage
$19.66 using the nominal GDP per capita
$22.79 using the relative share of GDP
How much is a large pizza these days?
I could eat like crazy back then with no consequences.

Pizza Hut has me
suckered with their online order thing.
I click a few buttons, type in some numbers from a card in my wallet, and about 30 minutes later pizza shows up at my door. That’s awesome.
If you were thinking, you wouldn't have thought that.
They're all like that now, at least I know my family got Domino's that way
I’m more of a local pizza place type of guy myself.

I used to love their buffets
but you rarely see them anymore
I mean, you still see the old red buildings, but it seems like they are phasing that side of the business out
you probably weren't even born
suicide now

I Would Not
Be 16 again for love nor money, but I would gladly go back to 1993 and try it again. I was 38. Pizza Hut, sadly, was already ruined. When I was living in Topeka in the early ‘70s, there were like 12 Pizza Huts in the city. They weren’t great, but they were pretty good and affordable. Pepsi bought them and ran them into the ground sometime in the ‘80s. There’s one in Kenai, and it sucks out loud.
I used to be an A's fan until they left town and got good.

Which pizza place would you rather go to by the following reviews:
1. It sucks out loud.
2. It blows.
The General Theory of Royaltivity
The only Bigfoot I've ever seen...
Still don’t know why exactly he’s the mascot, but whatever.

Today, we are all Honkballers.
Harry and the Hendersons episode on "30 Rock"
Simply brilliant, particularly with the John Lithgow cameo.
“Can’t you see you’re not wanted here!!!!”
Were the people that wrote that movie high?
