When you say 'cheese topping' it makes me think it was separate from the cheese.

Like a regular cheese pizza, but also with a Cheez Whiz topping.

Unless it was a margarita pizza and you're talking about the mozzarella slices..

Yes, definitely an Omen/ sign to by a new Vespa 310. Or 300. Just go to dealer and look around, to see if urge gets stronger. Consult Yoda if needed.

Definitely the wrong horncast. And judging by the pavers it looks more like Southeast Asia. I'd stay away from it.

OMG!!!

It must be a sign from......above?

Nah, not a 'believer', but here we were yesterday afternoon at Lintz Brothers Pizza near Hermosa, South Dakota, and asked for a 'to go' box for the six remaining squares of pizza, and what is handed to me?....another one of those 'Italian backstreet cafe scene' pizza cartons with the Vespa parked in the lower right corner, EXACTLY like the carton I received (only smaller) with a hotel pizza while on a recent overnight bus driving trip, OVER 350 MILES AWAY!!!!.

Scary!

Maybe the pizza box vendor was a "travelin' man"?

I told you !….but if you need more proof do this. Get (5) quarters. Roll each one off your dining table. (3) heads, buy new GTV. (3) tails, buy new GTS. (4)of either, re-do. If you get (5) of either -sign to not buy either. Try it.

I don't know, I definitely have no interest in a GTV, and buying another GTS will screw up my semi-serious plans to buy a new RE 650 within a year, so I don't dare to take a chance on the five quarters thing.

I think it's a sign that you should buy some new patio furniture.
