Sex dwarf?

Marc Almond is in the hospital with severe injuries after being in an accident as a passenger on a motorcycle. The name Marc Almond may not be familiar, but most people know his 80's band, Soft Cell with their "Number 1 hit, Tainted Love" --

I associate Soft Cell with a lesser-known song called "sex dwarf" -- a classic in my book. Not to mention, Marc is a fairly accomplished artist on his own.

Anyway, here's hoping he doesn't emerge a vegetable. This reinforces my feelings that riding around at high speeds on a motorcycle just encourages a world of hurt.

the left coast!

wow -- there are actually more than a few californians [inlink]haikuster,22[/inlink] on this site. hey (e:haikuster) ... what would it take to convince you to send me a case of two-buck-chuck and a bag of jerky from trader joe's? ;) -- okay, truth be told, I go to Cleveland as they have a TJs down there (don't laugh... if you shop there, you probably know it's worth the trip!) --

we need the joe! i love wegmans, but the joe needs to be there to fit the rest of my cravings. even though they can't sell wine in NYS -- blast!

lo-cal vs. no-cal

hey (e:haikuster) !

well, if you're actually able to do it, [inlink]haikuster,28[/inlink] I would say for not only my personal tastes, but also to save anything that a broken bottle of wine could stain and/or ruin.... the Charles Shaw sauvignon blanc would be just dandy! chardonnay is WAY too sweet for me. oh, and if you could grab a tub of the Australian red licorice, well, I'd be stoked for that too ;)

see what can be done about freezing an in-n-out burger [inlink]j3sse,6[/inlink] as well -- okay, perhaps that's too much to ask. but hey, that's what a hamburger's all about!

(e:twisted) is one of the other west-coasters... though she is significantly up the 101 a piece (SF Bay Area) --

I'd take you up on the turkey trot - but seeing as you do 17-mile runs and I do about 5, i fear you would outpace me like the proverbial Kenyan

8*

iForgot

I was going to talk about iPod stuff -- but I'm too tired. But I did see an interesting article (thanks to (e:Twisted)) about what can basically work like Tivo for the iPod. Too cool. I'm sure at some point the iPod will become passÃ© -- you know it's getting there when your grandma mentions wanting one and it's the topic of conversation on some second-rate sitcom. but like i could give a crap.

anyway, check out the article if you're interested --

Thank you, drive thru

".... yeah, I'll take a double-double animal style, choco-vanilla swirl shake, and fries... well done." *sigh* I miss in-n-out burger

-- they were the best, and they were simple (and they still are).

so dig this: living in kenmore, i've been trying to get the feel of the stepford neighborhood dynamic and have been uncertain whether it's prudent to show my political colors. i figured, "screw it if they have a problem with me" then today i saw a sign for mary lou rath on my neighbor's lawn. well crap, now when i put up a sign for kerry / edwards i'm going to look like i'm doing it in reaction to what frikkin' gladys and abner kravitz are doing. blik!

this is p-w-e-i-zation

koffee

[inlink]paul,2050[/inlink] -- hey Paul, thanks for taking the time tonight. elmwood is always such a wonderful place to just get out and explore. i will make one correction to your journal, however... in order to link to me, you need to link to (e:j3sse) or else it goes to (e:jesse) -- which isn't me.

man, even the state i saw that Ti Powerbook in -- it is still such a cool machine. i'm such a pushover when it comes to good industrial design.

speaking of which, what the hell is the deal with all of these manufacturers that are coming out with the adonized iPod mini lookalikes (i think so far it's been toshiba and sony)? ugh, so typical to leech off what is truly innovative design (whether you like it or not, i think it's hard to deny that it's innovative).

okay -- so for tomorrow's entry, per (e:) Paul and (e:Twisted) 's suggestion, I'm going to talk a little bit about what can be done with the iPod (like anyone cares, right?) -- suffice it to say, anybody who looks at the iPod as just a music player doesn't know much about it. when's the last time you booted your machine off your MD recorder?

signing out -- Â¡ coffee& esta muy bien !

More knowledgebase for craigslist bflo!!

Jesus tap-dancing christ

Is anybody looking at/using craigslist buffalo besides horny middle-aged white men, people looking for/selling freakin' Bills tickets, and special interest groups? It would seem that just about every question I've put up has gone unanswered, and more importantly, nobody ELSE is asking questions.

Even the section that is usually worth a look (the personals) is a tad one-sided. Yes, the m4w section is chock full of interesting posts, but everything else (even the m4m) is noticeably bare! Perhaps the article in the Buffalo News should have thrown out a mention to CL.

Well, since I really don't see craigslist as competition for elmwoodstrip, I'm hoping that at some point more local people will start checking it out. I mean for fuck's sake... how else am I going to find out where a good bike shop is or a place to buy cheap computer equipment (anyone? anyone?) ?? Or if there are any good jobs downtown? Or what place makes the best pizza, wings, thai food, etc...

where oh where is my craigslist?

Whoa, what?!!

Okay, I just moved to kenmore and I want to know what the hell the deal was with the driveby?!! At first it sounded like something str8 outta compton, but upon closer inspection, it sounds more like a pellet gun was used. Or was it a potato gun? Or a burp gun? What happened?!
