Jason Vs. Paul time to end!!

[inlink]jason,15[/inlink]

So I Come On here Today and the WAR is still going On. Hopefully some of what I say might help to end the war. I hope It does because I'm tired of reading the war.

"The Shit Rags" in my mind are Artvoice, The Beast, The Buffalo News, The Riverside Review, The West Side Times and any other papers or little presses I may have forgoten. I read them to see what is going on around Buffalo. If there is something political in them then I will read it. Every Paper pushes news stories that have opions in them off as fact. Oh they do that on TV also. If you are reading or watching something that fits with what you belive then you don't notice the Bias. But if it is something that does not fit into what you belive then you notice the bias. There are 3 sides to every story and the truth is in the middle somewhere. To find the truth we also need to look at our own bias. Most papers and news shows have an agenda or a bias. But that Bias dosn't mean that the stories they tell are not reliable. I being a White man from a poor family that would then be considered middle class but still knowing the poor side and having friends who lived in the ghetto have a filter system based on those experances. Someone who grew up differantly has a differant filter. Even people with the same poitcal views can read the same article in artvoice and get a differant meaning from it. That is why when there is a shooting or a car crash and there are meny witnesses there discription of what happened is often differant and sometimes controdictory. They both looked at the same thing but they where wearing differant lenses. Every single person has there own little filter that they see the world through. I think when we look at the news we have to understand that and also understand that the person who is writing or presenting it is doing so through there own filter as well.

I admit that I am a democrat and I don't like Bush. I saw this hot Girl with a pink shirt on at Record thatre that said Lick Bush, and on the front it said something about axis of evil. I do belive that there is a real axis of evil but I would have loved to lick her bush. But at the same time when we where attacked I'm glad Bush was in office I can't imagine what would have happened if Gore was in office. I agree with some of what Kerry says. But I do agree with Bush making Partial Birth abortions illegal. So these issues are not as simple as some would suggest.

I HOPE What I've SAid Has Helped To STOP the WAR. That IS Going On, AT This Site, IF Not At least I tried. Take Care. And lets all Remember that we all live in the same community and we don't have to agree but we at least have to try and get along.

Various Thoughts

[inlink]paul,2033[/inlink] The house on the Corner of Elmwood is right in my neighboorhood near walgreens. I think it is a cool looking house. Sometimes there are people on the porch or on the lawn or having a party there. A couple times I have walked past it and saw people doing art down stairs. I wasn't looking in but with large side windows you see in with out looking. So when I found the pictures I went to the website that had inside pictures of it as well. It looks awesome inside.

On Sunday I'm going to watch the bills, I bet they lose again. Then I'm going to see God Smack and Metallica. It should be an awesome show. I really hope that they play songs from all of there CD's. I like when they play songs that we the fans have foggoten about or wouldn't think they would play. Two songs that come to mind are "Where The Wild Things Are" and I forget the name of the songs on load and unload some of them are very good.


I'm going to see Ghost In the Shell 2 later today I hope it is very good. If I see a returant that looks good I may give them a try. There are a lot of retrurants that I would like to try. The next time I go to one then I will do a review. It may not be so professional but it would be ok. But I''ve been meaning to eat out for at least a month. Wait I did eat out a couple weeks ago maybe I could do a review later.

I know I had something else. Oh yeah in artvoice there is another article about Pano's but I havn't read it yet. Someone made a good point About HOW UGLY the Building IS. They went To Kostas. I went there once years ago, before it looked nice from the outside. They do have an advantage in that they are allready built into a a buliding. I think if Pano does expand what he should do is expand up onto the Porch of the atwater house or do something so that his buliding looks nicer. Yes the the buffalo looks nice but that is about all he has going for it. 4 epeeps and 4 guests cool.

3rd post CanidateDebates

Tonight The Vice presidental Debate is on. My first thought was why? What a waste of time. But then I thought but what if you like the vice president and more then his running mate. For Example what if you wind up liking Chaney and relising he is the man but you still think Bush is a dumb lame. There is a possiblity that you may dislike the VP of The guy you prefer or vice versa, if so then who do you vote for? Oh Baseball Playoffs start tonight I wonder who will win in the ratings.

Caffine?

i admit i don't like coffee I have even tried the flavored stuff that has lots of suggar.[inlink]southernyankee,77[/inlink] No matter how much sugar you add it still tastes bitter or what ever the flavor is. If it was sour thaen sugar could cover it up. Caffine is the most used drug in this country or is that substance one of the two. Think about all the people who use it to wake up in Coffee, Tea and even Pop. Not to mention some people even use chocalate to wake up. Some people can be awake for hours and won't feal awake untill that caffine kicks in.

Seoul

I hope this works. I downloaded a few pictures and am going to up load them. I hope it works. One of the pictures is off an old looking temple and a new buliding in the background. I have seen a better version of this but I think this is still a good picture. I think that it is a good example of how cities can have both old and new buildings and have a good look to tehm. Yes I think that preserving old building is important but new buildings and high rises are also good.

Asain Girls And Blondes?

I admit I have a weaknes for Sexy Asain Girls and for Blondes. All Blondes and all Asain Ladies are not sexy. But the ones that are are overly sexy. I like all ladies but There is something about jet black hair and those sexy eyes and some of those features. I also find busty girls hot to. I find Tats and piercings hot to. But I'm wondering if preferances for peoples looks is really a put down on them. For example there is this myth that black guys are bigger then white guys. This myth was started my whites meny years ago. It was part of the idea to make blacks more animalistic. The thought was that blacks where not men. There are a lot of other sterotypes that fit in with that. I'm wondering if thinking a certain type of women is hotter is really saying they are more sexual and less of a person. For Example there are lots of very sexy women on car magazines and at import shows. They are selling sex basicly, and using the women so they will look at the cars. Or is that they are using the cars so people will look at the models.

What got me thinking about this is a couple things. In Toronto there is a strip club that had mostly forgein girls from varrious countries [from what i could tell or was told]. Then in The Beast I saw and add for Asain Escorts. Then There are ads for Asian Mesages in another paper. I don't know if they are legit or if you can pay for sex. Then it got me thinking about Asia Carrera and Tia [not related names are pronoced the same but spelled differantly] and some other Sexy actress I have seen. Then I thought about ladies like Anna (that sexy tennis player) and other Russian or Czech girls and that sexy way they speak english, even though they are tough to understand. Anna is so sexy there are so meny things we i would love to do with her. There are differant kinds of attraction. There is the kind from knowing someone or knowing about them and nowing how they are. That is the better kind of attraction. Then there is the kind that is purely sexual. I think that when I find someone sexualy atractive then it is kinda saying they are less of a person. I dissaprove of the Term Jungle Fever or Yellow Fever (also a magazine tittle it was very good the one time I saw it) I think the terms are kinda demeaning. So I do have to say that Having a thing for Asains, or Black Girls, or Tall telumundo girls that have junk in the trunk and the front. Is both a Put down and a compliement to them. So I guess it is kinda racist. I kinda lost the point I had in my head as I was writing this.

Stats and Artvocie Panos

[inlink]jessbob,72[/inlink]

I like the stats. I did take a course of stats in college but I don't remember how you figure out corralations. One thing that does effect how meny views you have is how often people read the journals and how they read the posts. I will use my self as an example. I come on line and see who posted after me and I start there and read through all the journals. Lets say Dan's band posted after I left so I read them first. There might be 3 differant entries and I read all three but that would only count as one view right? But if I had still been reading when they posted then I would have clicked on there name once and read it. So then I read 6 more peoples journal then they post again so they go to the top of the list of jounals so I read them again. Here is another example I read Soyeons post earlier today so that is one view. Now if she where to come on line right now and post something then she would be at the top of the list so I would read it again so she would have two views as opposed to if I came on in an hour from now then she would only get one view. I come on here early in the day on saturday and read. So when I come on Monday there are posts from most of saturday all sunday and a lot of monday. So there are some people who have multiple blogs on a day for 3 seperate days. But If I had my own computer and I logged on each day then those people would have 3 views from me as opposed to only one. But I still enjoy the stats. I was verry surprised that I had as many views as I did. I wish i remembered how to do corralations if I did I would love to do one with every single stat on that list. Jessbob you make a good point about the stats also.

There is another article in artvoice about panos. I have not had a chance to read it yet. Hopefully after I do I can put up my comments about it. I think what makes a great city (at least to look at) is some modern bulidings and some ancient. There is an amazing picture I have seen from Seoul, Korea. It is really amazing. There is and old temple and it looks like there is this verry new modern buliding right next to it. The person also took pictures inside of the temple they are amazing, I saw the picture on line. There was also a great drawing in the Buffalo news (wish i would have kept it it was amazing) Of what they thought Buffalo could or should look like. It had great old classic looking buildings and new modern gorgous buildings as well.
