I Kimmed (retro)

I thought you all might like to know what employees at your local pizza place have to deal with every now and then. The following is an actual phone call received by a manager. The manger will be in this color. The customer will be in this color. All names have been changed to protect the innocent.

Thank you for calling A Pizza Place, my name is Pizza Manager, how can I help you?
Hi, I'd like to order a pizza.
OK, can I have your phone number please?
555-6464
Alright, what can I get for you?
I would like a large thin half cheese half no mushroom pizza.
A half cheese half no mushroom?
Yes, half cheese half no mushroom.
O.K. so you just want cheese on the whole thing?
No. I want half cheese half no mushrooms.
I'm not sure what you mean by no mushrooms. Do you mean a supreme with no mushrooms or a veggie lover with no mushrooms?
Is that what I said? I want a half cheese half no mushrooms pizza.
Sir, you can't just have no mushrooms. You have to start with something in order to make it no mushrooms.
I.. want.. a.. half.. cheese.. half.. no.. mushrooms.. pizza..
Can you hold on a second please?
Sure.
The manager puts the customer on hold and turns to his cook and says:
Do you know how to make a large thin half cheese half no mushrooms pizza?
The cook looks at the manager dumbfounded and shakes his head. The manager picks the phone back up:
OK sir tell me one more time what you would like.
What I told you, a large thin half cheese half no mushroom pizza.
I'm really sorry sir but I don't know how to make that. You can't have no mushrooms as a topping it just doesn't work that way.
Why are you making this so difficult? Get me a manager.
I am the manager sir.
Screw you then.

911 (retro)

We all are aware of the significance of today's date. When you turn your TV on today I have great confidence that you will have trouble escaping from the broadcast of 9/11 specials. Some of them will probably be good while others will probably be not that way. How does 64tacos feel it can best acknowledge 9/11? By giving you the opportunity to express your feelings about what's being shown on it's anniversary. Go to the forum, register yourself (it's free and really fun) then put your opinion up for others to comment on or comment on the opinions that are already there. Don't have an opinion? Go there anyway and form one based on everyone else's. If you don't want to discuss 9/11 that's fine. Start your own topic.

Chat rooms (retro)

While we were working on the basement we started talking about possible other things that we would like to have in the future. One thing that was mentioned was a chat room. We decided that it would be cool but didn't put much more effort into it than that. Well I got up this morning and Juke had already figured out how to do one. So now we have a chat room. Keep in mind it's very primitive but it's a great start and we're looking forward to seeing you there.

End of innocence (retro)

Sunday brings a new surprise for you all every week. A new person of the week. This week is going to be the last week for that surprise. We do have a very special person to end it with.

Who is this week's Person of the Week. You Are. I don't have to tell you why that is because you already know.

I have decided I don't like the format of 64tacos right now. As a result of this I am going to completely revamp it. 64tacos is getting a makeover. Some things will be kept. Others are history. As always your feedback is appreciated so if you have any concerns about this please email me at qorc@64tacos.com. (link has been removed)

There will be no more updates until the makeover is complete. When will this be you ask? I don't know. If you would like to be emailed when the new site is up send an email to igottaknow@64tacos.com (link has been removed) with the email address that you would like the email to be sent to.

One last thing to make Juke happy. Everyone should go check out www.kungfuchess.com. It's interesting.

POTWRB (retro)

Sunday is upon us. This means that it's time for a new Person of the Week.

This week we honor Robert Butler. Rob was one of the best cart attendants this side of the Mississippi. He also had a second life as Sidekick Squeeg. Right hand man to Super Shovel. With their partner Salt Boy they formed the Porch Patrol. The Porch Patrol helped protect the Meijer entrance ways from pesky slip and fall accidents and allowed for easier transport of shopping carts. The Porch Patrol has retired and all members have gone on to different things. Because of your dedication and willingness to push slush around with a squeegee you Rob, are our person of the week.

Stupid stupid idea (retro)

After looking at the results of the poll, it appears that all of you visit at least once a week and about half visit everyday. With this in mind I feel as though I haven't been fulfilling my duties. Unfortunately for the website work is occupying about 60 hours of my time a week. Because of this I'm left with little time to work on the website. As I know you all would like more content I am proposing this. If you have something that you find interesting and would like it to be viewed by anyone on the internet send it to us and we'll post it here in a new section we're calling 'The People's Voice'. It could be anything from a rant on how your hard shell tacos were soggy to a movie review. Our editors will edit it so don't worry about typing or spelling to much. If it's a movie review we ask that you use the 64taco movie review system. (We'll provide the pictures so don't worry about that.) I've added an email link to the menu so use it to send your stuff.

POTWKKPM (retro)

Here we are on Sunday again. Every one knows what that means... New Person of the Week!!!!!!!

This week we honor Kreiste KAat Pfchish Maan. Critter deserves this honor for many reasons. He is a New 1. He is one of the original Basement dwellers. Despite not reaching 10th level he has amassed an overwhelming amount of clip-ons. Perhaps the greatest reason though is he enlightened us to the 64. Were it not for Pheeisch our lives would all be dull and without purpose. He is truly a prophet and a great man. This is why we honor you Codder.
