...Pizza--Linden St. Once upon a time there was this guy named Joe who owned a pizzeria across Mass Ave from the Yard. Joe was, to put it mildly, something of an eccentric--he drove a hearse to work, for example. And he decorated his place with portraits of all the presidents, an incredibly tacky nude, and a salute to Christopher Columbus (the godfather of pizza, apparently). Oh yeah, he also served pizza, and would, on request, launch into half-English, half-Italian tirades about anything and nothing. His pizza was something less than great--greasy, soggy and altogether none...

Then, one day last September, his neck was broken in an auto accident; he was no longer able to make the flamboyant motions needed to fling high the pizza dough. The 33-year-old father of three children sued for damages. Rejecting a defense claim that pizza can be simply flattened on a table with the hands, and considering other injuries to Calogero, a twelve-man jury awarded him $335,000. At his old salary...
