RETIRED: Marlboro Outwit the West Funny Farm

228 92 October 16, 2010 at 01:35 PM
Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

I don't really like the chain pizzas.... we have alot of family owned places that make good pies and steaks
Back in the early 70's there was a guy named Willy Thieson who opened a bar called Wild Willy's in a little strip mall 2 blocks from my house. It was just a little neighborhood bar that wasn't doing very well. He decided to make homemade pizza to sell in this bar. He lived in an apartment nearby and he modified the oven as to reach a higher temperature during his experiments with pizza making. After a very short period of time this pizza he came up with was so good it over ran his bar business. So, He rented the empty spot next to his bar just to sell the pizza on a to-go basis to try and regain his bar business. It was absolutely the best pizza I've ever had to this day. A short time later he closed the bar and concentrated on his pizza business with a new and bigger location nearby. That place did so well he opened up a few more locations. Within just a few years his pizza business became so popular he decided to sell out his new company for mega millions. When he sold it the new owners changed the quality of the pizza and franchised it out all over the country and it's sucked ever since. Maybe you've heard of it. 'Godfather's'.
