The Miracle Pizza Receipt:

Pizza is my favorite food but I've never been a fan of reheated slices. I just figured this out a few months ago on lock down and it's shameful how long it took me to do so.

Pizza reheated in the microwave is too soggy. Pizza reheated in the oven can be too dry.

The receipt:
-put cold slice in microwave a minute or two just enough to melt cheese and soften the dough.
-then put frying pan on stove at high temperature and drop slice in a few minute to crisp up the crust to your preference.

And that's it, you'll have a nice almost fresh slice of pizza again. It may even be better if you like a crispy crust.

...then there is the film Krakatoa, East of Java, that had the unfortunate fate of being known more for the fact Krakatoa is West of Java, an error more well remembered than the movie, itself; the error was such an embarrassment to the film studio that years later when they re-released the movie, the title was changed to simply, The Volcano...

Very good source that tells you what to look for in a lock, and how easy something like a fingerprint lock is to break.
