    Manhattan can very well walk to the Lombardi and unload the trailer themselves if they want to eat tonight.

    CT has decent pizza if anyone dropping off or has downtime in CT! Plus no citibike jerk will try to share the road with you

    My pizza place if anywhere has probably been closed for decades. Its literally a small tiny bar type eating place with a table top oven big enough to bake it. In Frederick on Main street and I think Patrick cross street. I'll have to double check it. Anyway 3.50 a pie. It's made the same as if you bought the dough, pepperoni and cheese at the store. Nothing fancy.

    A truck friendly alternative was Midway PA at the Sbarro there. Get a whole pie, ignore the price gouging and go with everything on it.

    We do have some pizza here in Arkansas, Lakewood has a pretty good shop. One town in White county just opened a Simons (Oklahoma) and so on. But it's not the same.

    Im going to say this once. And use just enough words to convey it. Here goes.

    "I have never had anyone go to Congress, unknown and all of a sudden everyone knows this AOC. She is supposed to be a freshman in there, way in the back, quiet and unnoticed until she puts in some time up there."

    I could care less about AOC at this point having read some of the outrageous... Plans for our future Governance.

    I would not speak anymore after this particular post on this type of a subject. I don't mind people getting up there to do good work, but it takes time to season them properly.

    How would you like it if some 21 or even 18 year old pipsqueak showed up in your Board of Directors and make a decision affecting 15000 people and their families today?

    Never thought I'd say this but yep I'm done with NYC.
    Will say this though the 14th street market is gone and the fish market has moved to the bronx so not much OTR going in and or out of Manhattan these days .
    Charge accordingly.
     
    x1Heavy Thanks this.

    Here in Massachusetts we actually do. Said youngster is the MAYOR of the City of Fall River...;)
    (and he’s got serious issues of his own).
    My point is that it’s bad enough that folks are already (over)paying tolls to get through and/or around NYC and now they want to add a congestion fee? And they wonder why people are moving out of New York State and why drivers aren’t crazy about delivering to that area,with all the shenanigans!
     
    x1Heavy and jammer910Z Thank this.
