Secret Pizza Word Number One: Allison!

6 comments

Remember my Secret Pizza Word from October of 2009? Basically, there is a secret word only I know, and if you say it in front of me I owe you a cheese pizza. The guy who gave me the idea had the rule that you had to immediately stop whatever it was that you were doing and buy the sayer-of-the-word a pizza right there and then, but since that might not always be feasible, I made a coupon out of an index card. It’s also fun to see exactly how long the word has been in effect.  You can see it’s pretty road weary – I’m writing the next one in pen.

Anyway, sitting around my living room on Friday night, Allison from Robicellis mentioned that she used to play Cranium, and I gasped.  She raised an eyebrow while I dug into my wallet and pulled out the well-worn, totally goofy coupon I had made a year and a half ago.

My secret word was cranium!  It was well after midnight, but the pizza place was still open (I love New York), and since there were a few of us, I ordered two.  It had been my secret alone until about two weeks ago when I spilled the beans to Jen about what it was and how I was sad it was so obscure.  My next word is much more common. You still get no hints.

(Sorry about the crappy iPhone photos. Actually, they’re probably fine, but vanity dictates I tell you I snapped them with my phone.)

    It reminded me of the secret word on Pee Wee Herman’s Playhouse. Eventually someone would say the word and he and everyone else in the house would start screaming and the camera would flash around the room and zoom in and out. Winning a pizza is way more fun.
