Off-topic business brainstorming
in reply to a message by 'Cole
The stockmarket in Greece is more excremental than ever (-4.17% today) and I think my days as a financial guru are numbered. Gotta open a franchise of some US company in Greece. Tried Victorias Secret but was turned down. Dont think Cracker Barrel would fly either, with all due respect to 'Cole :P
Well the last time I lived in the States was in '92, so I'm a bit outta touch. What's hot over there right now?

Does Subway own Godfather's Pizza? Coz they're always together, it seems.I looooooove Godfather's Pizza. It's slammin' pizza. No other pizza on EARTH has the right to call itself "pizza", coz Godfather's is da bomb! :)-- Nanaea

Well Nan , you obviously haven't done research on St. Louis style pizza because if you had, you would KNOW that Imo's is #1 !!! LOL I'll have to freeze one and send it to ya!SJP.S
Around here there are alot of Pizza Hut/Taco Bell's. It's kinda weird.

To use an out-of-date phrase, don't go there, Nan! Pizza ranks right up with religion and barnyard animal fetishes as topics we'd be wise to avoid on this board. It's a Pandora's Box with double cheese!!(besides, the best pizza in the freakin universe is made in a wood-fired oven by a coupla old Italian brothers in a hole-in-the-wall shop in the Preungesheim district of Frankfurt. I couldn't believe it was still there - and still as good - as I'd remembered it from when I'd lived in the neighborhood 25 years before, but it WAS!!)

Have pity! My mind is still numb from an overload of Science Fair and Liquid Plumber imagery.
