New Haven Mayor John DeStefano was on the phone today to talk about the passing of Flora Consiglio, an original founder of Sally's Apizza.
Gary Bimonte, one of the owners of Pepe's Pizza, also called in to share his memories and thoughts on the passing of Flo.
Gorman Bichard is working on a documentary about New Haven pizza, so he also checked in to share Flo's historical importance in that realm. With her death, the last original link to to the birth of New Haven pizza is gone.
Joey Bugs brought in breakfast and bed bugs this morning.. not in the same bag/box, but still.. gross. He was on to tell you how to avoid getting bed bugs, and what to do should you get them.
TOP 10 LIST:
For homeowners trying to sell their properties themselves, the best advice is usually to keep it simple. That's what the experts do when they put up for sale signs , except for one homeowner. Instead, they've taken a more unconventional approach and included extra bits of information... like the neighbor is an 'a**hole'.That refreshingly honest For Sale sign appeared in New Jersey.
TOP 10 : WAYS TO MAKE YOUR NEIGHBORS HATE YOU
1) Let your dog bark and roam freely
Incessant barking is a classic annoyance endured by neighbors of dog owners. Nobody likes to be awakened and kept awake by the howling of a bored dog during the wee hours of the morning. Additionally, nobody likes to step in dog poop en route to their mailbox
2) Neglect your yard
A neglected yard affects the appearance of your entire neighborhood. So, if you don’t mow often, fail to edge, allow weeds to spread, don’t trim trees and bushes on a regular basis, then chances are, a neighbor or two doesn’t like you.
3) Neglect the general upkeep of your home
Was your roof last reshingled during the Reagan administration? Is the siding literally falling off of your house? Is your fence a tap away from collapsing? If you’ve answered yes to any of these questions, it’s time to either fork over the money for maintenance, or dust off the hammer and get to work.
4) Collect tacky yard ornaments
Nothing says trashy quite like a few tacky yard ornaments. If your yard is adorned with a pink flamingo, plastic deer or a tribe of gnomes, your taste will be called into to question.
5) Leave your Christmas lights up year-round
Don’t be that house – each neighborhood has one. After the completion of the holiday season, you put off taking down your Christmas lights by a week or two. Soon weeks turn into months, and months turn into a year.
6) Undertake loud DIY projects during odd hours
Some people either keep odd hours or simply can’t be separated from their DIY projects. Resultantly, they’re up hammering, drilling and sawing when they’re neighbors are sleeping.
7) Throw noisy parties and random times
Noisy parties are another common source of neighborhood noise pollution. Don’t relive your college years and throw rowdy shindigs at random times. Not only is it an issue of interrupted sleep for your neighbors, but it’s also the accompanying trash and parking problems that come with most large gatherings.
8) If you have a downstairs neighbor, walk on your heels
There isn’t a better way to annoy your downstairs neighbors in an apartment complex than with your feet. If you dance or stomp frequently, they probably hate you.
9) Fight with your significant other regularly
The nightly yelling matches with your significant other likely have your neighbors concerned and/or appalled. They don’t understand that you two just happen to be hotheaded and believe in the healthy venting of emotions
10) Spy and gossip
If you’re overly curious about the lives of your neighbors and purvey gossip related to them, it’s probable they’ve built up some resentment toward you.
