What's Charlie Chaplin and Milton Berle? Chopped liver? OTOH, without "The Honeymooners" we wouldn't have The Flintstones, The Simpsons, and most of the TV sitcoms during the last 30 years.

Speaking of the Simpsons... I've never looked forward
to watching a cartoon sitcom but any time that I've
watched a episode of the "Simpsons," it's never
failed to have at least one funny that actually made
me laugh (vs just a smile).
 
I also loved Southpark the first season. That was the
shock value, I suppose. Once they took the summer off,
I slowly lost interest during the 2nd season.
 
One good funny I remember is when Cartman went
trick-or-treating for Halloween dressed as Hitler. LOL

I hate cartoons, except Southpark. I remember a scene where the 3 boys
were going to Kenny's house for the first time and Cartman was singing
"In the ghetto" as they were walking on the wrong side of the railroad
track.

How many dishes from history had only transient appeal? You're judging
culinary evolution by its successes while ignoring its failures.
 
Have you ever seen a Medieval cookbook?

I remember when you and Jill joked me about worrying that
my feet might get cold. Nonsense.
 
My only point is that a chest freezer will hold in the cold,
making it more efficient. You see those open chest freezers
in your grocery stores often. No lids.
 
With an upright freezer, all the cold air drops right out
immediately when opened.
 
As soon as that warm air hits the frozen food, condensation
starts. Of course, the frost-free feature will eliminate that.
 
Bottom line, chest freezers are more energy effecient, that's
all.

Yeah. Interesting to watch. I think I did hear that it will be
held indoors this year (without a large crowd). I'll find
out in about 5 hours.

The President has limited control (except his bully pulpit) over what the
states do in regard to the pandemic. He can withhold funding (directly
and indirectly via refusing to declare a place a disaster area), but
that's about it.
 
Look at how many governors have told him to pound sand.
 
If you read carefully, you'll see that her city was opening in a controlled
manner until the mayor screwed the pooch on social distancing.

My grandmother was from Virginia. Her potato salad was:
 
Potatoes
Onions
Celery
Miracle Whip
Vinegar
Sugar
Salt
Pepper
 
Then there's German potato salad, which also include vinegar. French
potato salad, which is made with a vinaigrette. And a whole raft of
other vinegared potato salades.

Your President still sets the tone and verbally abuses governors who
didn't want to open fast enough. Those governors were right.
 
The mayor of Amsterdam also allowed a BLM demonstration to happen
during the Covid crisis. She was so keen to show how politically
correct she was that she endangered public health in the process.
 
Stupidity is international, but Trump takes the cake.

Huh?
I was in the jr. high and high school bands.
National Anthem was played using sheet music.
The sheet music shows the proper notes
(not all the extra crap that singers add)
 
It also shows the tempo meant to be played at.
Meant to be played a bit faster than most singers do.
 
Google a version played by a military band. It's not
so bad when played that way.

This would mean that you know nothing about pizza, have never made a pizza, and quite possibly blind. Anybody with pizza experience would know that has a restrained amount of cheese. That's entirely on purpose.

Oh, what would a Hawaiian know about pizzas anyway :)

You must have noticed that I didn't just list all the fruits I could
think of, but curated them carefully.

Sweet/savory foods have a long tradition in Western cooking.
 
Pineapple on pizza is terrible. I'd rather have ham and onion.

I'm quite fond of broccoli on pizza. I don't do meat and fruit together.

Most of my pizzas contain broccoli.
With a red sauce and always the main ingredient
on a white pizza.
 
 
George H.W. Bush:
" do not like broccoli. And I haven't liked it since I was a
little kid and my mother made me eat it. And I'm President
of the United States and I'm not going to eat ... "

ham, onion and fresh tomato would be a nice combo
to me.

saurkraut and italian sausage, we liked it on a thin
whole wheat crust with a fairly sweetish tomato paste
based sauce. i still can't find a decent italian
sausage that i like around here that comes close to
the kind they put on their pizza. :( it was a very
sweet italian sausage - homemade and i never got the
recipe.

Where is "all over America"? How many places and where were they located?
