I haven't. I know some Asian people who do shrimp pizza.

It doesn't appeal to me. I think shrimp has the wrong flavor profile for pizza. Salmon would probably work well, though. I've never done that, either, but I could see it working.

If the pizza is genuinely good toppings are gilding the lily. I like my lily gilded as much as the next guy, but properly good pizza does not *need* toppings.

There is nothing more disappointing than this exchange, which I've had countless times:

124 Excuse m if this has been discussed, but my Gid, this is crazy, if true!
Maui Police Chief John Pelletier, who gave the order to TRAP VICTIMS IN THE LAHAINA FIRE, has now been named as a co-conspirator in the Diddy case
Pelletier ALSO happened to be the Incident Commander during the Las Vegas shootıng.
Pelletier FORCIBLY took a Diddy victim at gunpoint from Vegas to California to be r*ped by Diddy by posing as a sheriff executing a fake warrant, according to the suit.
Even after these incidents occurred, Pelletier was STILL named Chief of Maui Police, and the devastating fires happened shortly after.
Many questions have loomed as to whether or not children went missing after the fires, where entire families disappeared without a trace.
The government disputes this claims, and they have not been verified.
This story goes MUCH deeper than what we already know.

"It has a cyclops' eye set in the midst of her human-like head, long beak of jaws, in the ends one or two great sharp tusks, long neck; her arms like chicken' fledgling wings, the fingers of her hands not divided; the body big as a camel's, but in shape as the ostrich;18 the sex is only feminine, she has a foot as the ass' hoof, and a foot as an ostrich. She entices passengers, calling to them over the waste by their names, so that they think it is their own mother's or their sister's voice."

Hanta virus was the cause of death of a young married Indian couple in New Mexico many years ago. The wife died first and they were after the husband because, hey, always look at the spouse first.

The uptick in the mouse population was tied to the unusual heavy rains. The rains meant more food (might have been pinon nuts) for the mice, therefore, more mice. More mice, more spreading of the disease.

Learned that from an old episode of Forensic Files.

206 Homemade mayo is really easy to make.

It actually is, and it feels like magic. It goes from this slurry to suddenly being mayo out of nowhere. Time consuming but very rewarding. Tastes way better than store bought by ANY company. Like ice cream that way. Make your own and you will think even the finest gourmet stuff tastes like plastic.

I watched like 11 hours of those when I was sick once. It was informative, slightly disturbing and saddening all at once. The lengths to which evil people will go to do horrific things to others. Like the episode where a doctor deliberately infected his wife with HIV to get rid of her, and faked blood drawn from his arm by inserting a capsule of blood under the skin.

The US House just EXTENDED the statute of limitations for people who committed COVID fraud, allowing those who stole COVID relief funds to continue to be prosecuted.

Democrats are apparently VERY afraid of this, considering 127 of them voted against it.

There a competition every year called Kings and Queens of Corbets. All sorts of wild entrances like that. The video is from this years completion which happened. A few weeks ago.
