    I can validate that the entire world’s population is on the roads in Los Angeles between the hours of 5am and 9am then 3pm to 8pm.

    As for word of advice that one should know...

    Government agencies don’t call you regarding your taxes (IRS) or other stuff. They send you snail mail. More so they don’t leave voicemails... they will just kick your door in.

    Or blow a hole in your wall... which every is easier... for them.

    Not only that, after they liquidate your assets, even if they're in the wrong, you have no recourse.

    They could care less, and since there's no oversight to prevent it... you're better off staying out of the radar.

    Hell, the state of Ohio is still trying to double-dip me for school district taxes I've already paid for years... and I don't even have kids.

    If you're not scared yet, you should be.

    Here's what you should know about pineapple on pizza: No one orders pineapple on pizza by itself, or with random toppings. Pineapple is a topping on Hawaiian pizzas, paired with ham.

    Ham and pineapple go together very well, it's a salty sweet combination. You might have had pineapple in the glaze of a full, baked ham, or pineapple slices tacked right on the side while it's baking (like my mom used to do). Its perfectly normal and putting the two on a pizza may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it is certainly not something that is random or strange.
    Pineapples can be added to other pizzas with great effect as well. If you add Pineapples to a Barbeque Chicken Pizza (BBQ Sauce base instead of Marinara, Chicken and Red Onions with a mozzarella/cheddar blend of cheeses), the savoriness of the Chicken, tartness of the Red Onions and the sweet tanginess of the BBQ sauce and Pineapples is a great combination of flavours. Pineapple does not normally come on a BBQ Chicken Pizza and must be added.

    On a side note: Pineapples are a manly fruit, as it contains the enzyme bromelain, which actively digests protein and is a natural pesticide in the wild. When you eat Pineapple, that tart yet sweet taste you have in your mouth is the Pineapple trying to digest the tissues in your mouth.
