Day 21, 2003: Luigi's Pizza (Chelsea, NYC)

DAY 21: October 21st LOCATION: Luigi's Pizza (8th Ave and 23rd St., NYC) GUEST(S): Matthew Shafeek ORDER: 2 slices of cheese PIZZA REPORT: Bigger but not better. The slices at Luigi's are significantly larger than typical NY pizza slices, however, when you subtract the area taken up by the poorly popped bubbles, the uncheesed red edges, and the tasteless crust, the slice is not quite as big. The crust is firm and the sauce isn't bad so I did enjoy several bites before I gave up. MISC.: Matt would rather go to Las Vegas than his college homecoming. He just recently got back from Vegas having lost a few dollars but having gained one goatee. Someone told me one time that people in the past drank grain alcohol instead of water because the harmful bacteria cannot grow in alcohol. I believed that someone and told Matt that all people that lived in the past walked around somewhat buzzed at all times. He then asked "Wouldn't the alcohol dehydrate them increasing the need and desire for water?" I had no answer for that. Lesson learned...don't just accept theories because they sound cool. I just found out that they don't have English muffins in England.
