The title clearly says "New York Pizza" so I'm not sure what you're on about. That's a lie, I do know, but I won't humor you.

I get where you're coming from, but do yourself a favor and just get a decent burr grinder and a bag of the whole bean variety of whatever brand you are buying. Trust me, you'll learn to deal with the extra minute in your morning

Slapstick was one of my favorites, plenty of sarcasm to go around. I've been trying to get through Player Piano (his first novel) but it's a tad dry.
