Dominos and TiVo team up to ruin America

I live in New York City, home of the best pizza slice, but every so often I see a Domino’s commercial and that melty cheese and glass of coke just looks sooo good I’m practically salivating. The worst part? The only thing to eat in my apartment is some leftover Chinese food and a box of cereal with probably expired milk. <br><br>Well, Domino&#39;s and TiVo have a solution. They are teaming up so ultra lazy couch potatoes like me can order pizza through Tivo! While you&#39;re fast forwarding through that Domino&#39;s commercial, grumbling about how hungry you are, an ad will pop up asking you if you&#39;d like to order a pizza. You will of course select “yes,” which will direct you to a menu. <br><br>If I can see my own scenario playing out with two medium pies on the coffee table, my guess is this partnership will work on loads of lazy Americans. The only problem (besides, um, potential obesity) I forsee for those too slothful to pick up a phone to order a pizza: who’s gonna let in the delivery guy. <br><br>Do you think this TiVo and Domino’s collaboration is a new low?

    Let your mind play at the stove. I am a cook by trade and what ever you like and want to try can be done at the stove. Let your mind and taste buds do it for you. Make a small sample to try and if you enjoy it, you will not forget the recipe. Make yourself rich by doing it yourself. Make yourself happy by creating what you like and what your taste buds like. Just play and have fun, create and enjoy. Why make others rich, when you can make yourself rich by what you created for your mind, body and soul. Just play and have fun and create your own style of taste.
