Paul's Journal from 04/2006

04/02/06 16:45 - 54ºF - ID#32556 pmoblCategory: foodSquirrels Babies Soon, We eat food
I was in such a bad mood this morning. I wasn't sure if it was that I tried to look at my sad thesis or because I didn't go sidewalk chalking last night to get new people on the site. It has been so long since I worked on my thesis that at the time we only had like 200MB/day of data being viewed. Now it is over a gigabyte on most days.

0406/02195102.gif

We brought the squirrels outside for a little bit with the tortoise. He is so hungry for the hay in the backyard. The squirrels liked it to. When I pulled them out o fthe pouch, the boy squirrel had a boner. It was the weirest looking penis - really long and skinny. Skinny like only a couple millimeters across but like an inch long. I think that babies are soon to follow - I guess it is spring afterall. I cannot imagine how cute the babies will be.

We also went to the coop and bought a lot of vegtables. Elmwood was alive with people. In fact e:terry mentioned it was as bumping as a shopping plaza in phoenix.

These organic mini oranges are so flavor packed and only 10 cents each. Something must be wrong with them.

I decided to make mini Buffalo brugers and shrimp. Who would ever think that such diverse animals could taste so right together. Thank you oregano and garlic.

0406/shrimpBuffalo4237.jpg

I think that the non-bag style natural salad is much crunchier than the bag one. I used to think the bag one was quicker but honestly, you have to wash it and dry it anyways so what the hell is the difference. I am done with the bags.

0406/salad4237.jpg

I still can't believe the house we were gonna buy on Linwood was already bought. They go so damn fast.

04/03/06 19:06 - 49ºF - ID#32558Category: nostalgiaheloise, are you there?
While eating my delicious quarter chicken diner lunch at Roswell today, I found a good housekeeping magazine on the table.

0406/roswellChicken0626.jpg

0406/goodHousekeeping0626.jpg

It reminded me of everything I learned from Heloise as a child. Is she even in the magazine anymore?

I wasn't brave enough to touch a used hospital magazine while eating.

UPDATE - Wow, I just looked her up and of course she has her own web site nowlink now. Do you think if Heloise thinks it's okay to use the marquee tag that i could get away with it. It works in firefox now too.

Basically, a fun day of listening to kimya and programming to cure cancer.

My dermatology photo sample tagger, viewer, editor is comming along nicely. Don;t worry not real patient data, just some images from google.

He loves to eat shrimp so much. I love that he eats anything. It makes dinner more fun with the glider. He ended up double fisting the shrimp. I think that is what opposable thumbs are for.

04/04/06 00:33 - 41ºF - ID#32560Category: emailA friend of Holly Johnson with a few que
Today I got the weirdest email

Hi Paul,
My name is Theresa Chambers, my brother is Matt, Holly Johnson's boyfriend. I'm taking a Women Studies class at UB and for a project I need to interview an active feminist,so Holly gave me your name. She told me that your pro-life and very active in Women's rights, so I was just wondering if I would be at all able to ask you a few questions. Also I'm pro-choice, so I thought it would be interesting talking to you.

If you wouldn't mind doing an interview I could just e-mail you the questions or however you would prefer, if you don't have time to do it that's not a problem either. Just let me know!

Thank you so much for your time,
Theresa



The thing is I am not a women's rights scenester and I am definately not pro-life either. In fact I really don't care about the issue because it doesn't effect me very much. How did this mixup happen. I need to talk to e:holly about this.

Here is what I am thinking for a response.

Dear Theresa,
That was so last year. Now I am into Animal Rights. Sorry about the confusion but you know how it is with social trends, they move so quick.
Paul



No seriously, I don't know how to respond to this one because I don't want to say I am not "into" women's rights but really I was never very "active."

04/05/06 23:11 - 36ºF - ID#32561Category: foodGetting Buff Buying Olive Oil
Olive oil is getting so freakin expensive. What is up with that?

The ministry announced earlier that the 2005 olive oil crop is down by about 35 per cent, or 350,000 tons, after little rain and severe cold spells and snow hurt Spain's olive trees last winter.

Spain is the world's biggest olive oil producer, accounting for a third of global supply.link



Herelink is more information than you could ever want to know about olive oil. Here is even more details about what the waste is used for. Who would have ever thought one thing could make herbacide, fuel, and work breeding material.

Apparently, this happend befoe May 1996link and then afterwards we live in a period of low prices. I rememeber buying a gallon for only $8.

The shelves that used to be full of it at Wegman's are now full of nasty crisco liquid in detergent bottles.

0406/yuckyOils0649.jpg

Who thought that poeple would want their oil in detergent bottles. To me it makes it even more disgusting.

0406/criscoDetergent0649.jpg

But Olive oil is really $22/gallon. I guess I can't use it for "everything" anymore. Look how tiny the olive oil section is.

0406/OliveOil22PerGallon0649.jpg

On another front, Tom's Of Maine is now owned by Colgate. They test on animals, but Tom's of Maine doesn't so is that a conflict or what?
0406/tomsOfMaine0649.jpg

I am getting so much stronger but now I am addicted to being stronger. I want to be really strong and then start fighting.

04/06/06 23:13 - 42ºF - ID#32562 pmoblCategory: foodwashington market
Today e:enknot and I headed over to wahington market We talked the nerdy talk and ate the delicious food. I had another chicken tuscan procuito, artichoke heart extravaganza.

The prices are so good in the butcher shop, you could get a new york strip steak for less than $4.oo.

Afterward I walked out and tried to open a jaguar. It looked the same as e:enknot's car to me.

I want to rule a top level domain with a silicon fist.

I fixed all that surebert to be new and fantastic. Time to get drunk.

It was light out when I got out of work at 8PM, check the timestamp.

04/07/06 19:48 - 42ºF - ID#32563Category: geektalkDay in the life of a uebergeek
Went with e:kara over to artvoice to meet with Jamie Moses and e:zobar about some upcomming collaborations and stuff. It was fun geek talking it up with e:zobar as usual. It reminds me of talking with e:jesse but with much more clarity - and that's a good thing.

I am so borrowing his idea about putting content on an ipod to take it with you idea. Soon you will be able to download your entire journal and put it on your ipod. I think that would be a fun way to read it for some people. Of course, sans imagery. Maybe with the nano?

04/09/06 01:07 - 32ºF - ID#32564 pmoblCategory: foodColdstone Cremery
Today we headed over to the fish store to buy new stuff for e:matthew's tank and to the sprint store to finaly fix e:terry's phone after a month of it not working. While we were driving we saw that they have a coldstone cremery here now on Deleware near Kenmore Ave
. I used to go there all the time when I lived in flasgtaff. I have a feeling they are from Arizona because they were all over there.

The ice cream is so good but it's always too much even when I order the freaking small. Apparently, they do a dance and song thing when you tip them. I tried to recor dit on my phoen but I missed it. We tried retipping but apparently they only do one singing per visit. I would hate working at a store like that. When I was younger I worked at a local icecream store called parfait that was near Niagara Falls Blvd and Sheridan. It is now a cingular store.

It was kind of expensive. Three of us had icecream for $15.74.

04/10/06 00:17 - 40ºF - ID#32568 pmoblCategory: foodPalm Sunday Tastes Good
We had such a tasty day at my Mother's House. Palm Sunday is starting to rival easter for extravagance. Every holiday at my Mother's is a two meat meal. This time is was a ham and lamb holiday.

0406/altogther1305.jpg

She even managed to make e:matthew a completely wheat free cake that used ground up hazelnuts instead of flour.

This doesn't even count the six tons of candy we ate while playign Buffalo Monopoly. I was losing really bad and tried to forfeit my taking e:matthew and myself onto e:mike's Niagara Square $2000 per landing rental property. I ended up just laming myself for a while and not being able to go out for like 5 more turns.
