MMS 2006: Ciros Pizzaria in the Gaslamp Quarter

There is a little New York-style pizza placenamed Ciros at 536 Market at 5th Ave. We stopped by there for lunch today and I got what might be the biggest stromboli I’ve ever had. It was about a foot long!
It was loaded with toppings and wasn’t greasy at all, even though it had pepperoni and sausage on it. I barely cracked open the marinara sauce, but what I had was good. It was a little heavy on the tomato, but it was still very good. Check it out if you want a cheap lunch.

Welcome to sunny New Jersey

I’m in New Jersey for the next couple of days. I’m quite impressed with the scenic beauty here in the Frenchtown area. It was a nice drive in from Newark, especially the trip through farm country. I wish I could spend a little time looking around out here.
I did see a guy driving with one hand on the wheel and another on the horn. It was quite a sight. He honked at two cars on his way past us. I’m sure he got where he was going though, even if it was at the cost of a minor inconvenience to other people.

Quotable Jobs

Steve Jobs is one of the most quotable men to ever walk the earth. He isn’t FDR, but he really is great. One of my favorites is below, but Wired has a slew of them in the article.

Wired News: Steve Jobs’ Best Quotes Ever:
“If I were running Apple, I would milk the Macintosh for all it’s worth — and get busy on the next great thing. The PC wars are over. Done. Microsoft won a long time ago.”

Bob Ross’ Happy Little Trees coming to NDS and Revolution?

Bob Ross has become a legend. When I was young, I couldn’t care less about the arts, but he made painting interesting. I could watch paint happy little clouds and trees all day. Most people I now watched “The Joy of Painting” at least once in their lives. What could a man who touched so many people have left to accomplish, even after death?
Well, he’s getting his own video game. According to PlanetGameCube, a game is forthcoming for the Nintendo DS and the companies’ forthcoming Revolution console. This is a perfect application for the Revolution’s new motion sensitive controller. I can imagine waving the controller like a paintbrush. a few years ago, I would have groaned about the possibility, but now, it is not only possible, but interesting as well.
