Pizza! The Movie

Pizza! The Movie, A Review by Albert Grande, pizzatherapy.com Pizza! The Movie was an ambitious project to begin with. On the surface making pizza seems simple enough. C'mon you make dough with water, yeast, salt and maybe add some olive oil. Stretch out the dough, throw on a little olive oil, some tomatoes, some cheese and pepperoni or whatever. It's easy. Right? Not so to anyone who has made pizza from the heart, and certainly not for someone who makes a movie with heart about pizza. Pizza! The Movie will not be all things to all people. The film does not pretend to be. There will be pizza fans who are disappointed. After all fimmaker Michael Dorian had to narrow his focus. Dorian has done an excellent job of hitting all of the high spots of pizza. He tackles New York Pizza . He discusses Chicago Deep Dish pizza. He uncovers the Chicago Deep Dish controversy. He travels the country from end to end searching out snippets and facts about the pizza culture. He interviews Pet...

First an update on the pizzatherapy.com forum . I found wonderful free forum software called phpBB I have installed all of the files. Then I uninstalled everything I installed. I have deleted all of the files. I have reconfigured and ftp’d everything. I am still unable to get the forum up and running…I am still working on it though…If any one can help, I would appreciate it. Enough of my problems, I want to discuss my favorite topic: pizza I love talking to anyone about pizza. I enjoy discussing how to make pizza, pizza tricks and tips.

Pizza Notes from pizzatherapy.com
Here in pizzaland, it has been the best of times, it has been the worst of times. I guess I will talk about the negative first to get it out of the way. I have been thinking about a pizzatherapy.com pizza forum for a while. I have gotten several emails from pizza fans who felt it should be a reality. OK, I know there are certain times, when I have to start paying attention to what people are saying, and this is one of those times. I am committed to make sure pizzatherapy.com has a forum. Here are a few of the reasons: 1) pizzatherapy.com has built up quite a following of pizza fans throughout the entire world. I have been very consistent about sending out issues of Pizza News . Pizza News readers are loyal. A forum would be way for these pizza fanatics to touch base with each other and start a conversation. 2) Certain pizza questions could be handled by certain forum members. This would be great way for people to connect with each other. 3) A forum will also form a community. I feel...
Hello, my name is Albert Grande. I am a pizza man. My passion is pizza. Here is my website: http://pizzatherapy.com I want to speak about Spiritual Pizza. The Magic of Believing by Claude Bristol is one of my favorite books. I have read this book many times and I always seem to get something new out of it. If I know I need to wait in a line, such as at a bank or food shopping, I will take the book along to read. This seems to make the line move faster. Simply put, The Magic of Believing states, the energy of the subconscious mind can help individuals achieve any goal. If you believe it, it will happen.

Bristol speaks about two people cooking an item using the same ingredients, and the same recipe. One item turns out to be a failure while the other is a successful culinary achievement. The successful cook, saw the finished product in their mind's eye. This succe...
