What is 'NY style'?
NY style pizza has a thinner crust, as opposed to Chicago style which is cooked in a deep dish. Deep dish pizza is alright, but I'm partial to my hometown's of course

Which is actually the Italian way of doing it, so it's Italian Pizza
All you want to know about NY-style pizza. It says that Lombardi's was the first pizzeria to open in the US (1905).NY style pizza has a thinner crust, as opposed to Chicago style which is cooked in a deep dish.
One of my teachers once said, "Of ALL the American composers, Charles Ives was the BEST... insurance salesman."Which composer? If you ever need a really interesting story...do Charles Ives. I found him to be quite an interesting fellow. Grossly misunderstood...a true, original American composer and influential businessman.
So, I had a four day weekend (post-midterm break), and yet I still had to pull an all-nighter tonight/this morning to try to get on top of things. Now, I'm starting a 5 page paper that's due tomorrow on a composer who's entire life story, if I were to copy/paste every bit of relevant information I've found on him, might take up 2 1/2 pages. So, I'll get that mostly done...then go to work from 10-3, then a 3 hour rehearsal immediately afterwards, then I'll come home to finish the paper and run through my recital set a couple of times, possibly eat the first/last meal for the day, practice as much as possible, then pass out by 11 hopefully.
Fuck today
^not fishing for sympathy, just wanted to bitch for a second....everybody get's one

It was just a joke. Actually, Ives was Dr. Cutler's favorite composer (he made us try to guess at the beginning of class once, and ripped on a lot of composers rather hilariously).I love his stuff...wildly avant garde...eerie and haunting. Are you familiar with his works?
To each his own. His Symphony #3 did win a Pulitzer. He was highly regarded by Schoenberg, Schuman, Mahler, Copland...I'd say that's pretty good company. A rather naive comment...no offense.
I never started drinking coffee till I was in the workplace. I hit my first week-long training class on Nortel CDMA equipment back in 1995, and I figured something had to change by the second day. Coffee was born unto me on that day. I went all the way through high school and college without it. And I was quite the late nighter in college too...

Yeah, I took a semester on 20th century stuff, and like I said, the guy loved Ives, so we did a lot of listening/analyzing. Some of it's good, and, like all early-20th-century stuff... a lot of it sounds "shitty for the hell of it," which academia just eats right up.
