But if you would like to see more go to here I have a second album of pictures here , hopefully those links work. Some of the pictures could have come out better and I only labeled some of them. But if you think you might like them check them out. The enigma is really amazing some of you may have seen him on TV before.

MIA 05

I went to Allentown and Music is art and Had a great time both days and it was a lot of fun. The sideshow tent had a bunch of shows in it. I didn't see to many of them. They Engima was there they had people hanging from hooks. I went to see the stripteasers a few times. From what I understand they have a show at Roxy's I think on thursdays.

They had all kinds of interesting art. Plus there where dancers and lots of differant bands and styles of music. Plus there where some very sexy ladies there also. I took about 200 pictures and have them on webshots. I can't name every band that was there but bands that I enjoyed was Klear, The Voo Doo Dollies, Anatara, Zilla, The Human Marvels (Enigma does some tricks ass he performs), Cute is what I am for, Anal Pudding, Seven day faith, Cute is what we aim for, Gamalon, Agent me, The Rabies, Sanity and some more.

I also bought two pictures of NY City that looked cool. Allentown allways has a bunch of neat looking art to buy. I hope I did a decent shot of explaining stuff. When I have all the webshots pictures titled then I hope to include the link. Also some of the pictures looked nice on the camara but came out darker when downloaded. If any one knows of a cheap way to get pictures devloped let me know. All in all it was a lot of fun.

10,000 links

First of all I have over 10,000 views, wow. I guess that means people like to read my journal. I admit I don't know how that compares to others on the site but that dosn't matter. I admit I like to write blogs. But they are sitll a little strange. What I mean is you can write it as if no one is going to read it. Then is will mostlikely be verry personal. Or you can write it personal and make it so there is nothing to private. Or you can write stuff that you want to share or give your own view on. Like a political stance. I do a little bit of all of it. In any event I'm glad that people are reading it, if they where not I would feal kinda bad I guess.

I would also like to thank Paul for mentioning Music Is Art in the news journal. I know there are a lot of festivals and events going on in Buffalo. I think MIA is not only a lot of fun. But there is a lot of good variety and it sounds like this year it is really going to be expanded. In addition at Musicisart.org you can find out all kinds of information about it, like who will benifit from it.

I think yesterday I went to the sister site. Sometimes refered to as (e:strip) West. Once I logged in I saw something cool. Under what to write about the last topics on (E:strip) where listed and you could click on them and they would bring you here. I thought that was neat.
if you type that into your browser it will take you there. I just wanted to mention one more thing. I have seen 3 recent shows on Coldplay and they all have been great. MTV's Ask Coldplay and Coldplay Live leak, VH1 Story Tellers Coldplay. I admit I missed the Greenday story tellers and I'm still upset but maybe I will catch it some other time. Yes I like Greenday and Coldplay and they are both coming to town this summer.

This was in the Buffalo news but it was to big to scan all of it so I tried taking a picture of it. I don't know if it will be readable or not. It is information about Music Is Art. They are having a festival on Sat and Sun. Yes that is the same days as Allen Town. Yes you can do both they are both free and both in the same area. Last year it was a lot of fun. It sounds like they are expanding it and even including Jazz and Country. From what I've seen it looks like Sunday is the better night to go. But that makes sense since you want to end it off big. For more information You can go to musicisart.org . I'm guessing there maybe more info on it in Artvoice and or Gusto but not sure. Both festivals are a great way to spend all weekend. Oh and don't forget to wear songblock if you are someone who might need it. I forgot once at one of those outdoor festivals and after that I never forgot again.

Pride

First of all I'm glad The Pride weekend was a suscess. I my self didn't go to see the parade or any of the acivities. But I also didn't go to any of the activities when I was in Toronto during Pride week. It was either last year or a couple years ago, I was going up there for something else and it just happended to be Pride week. That being said I still think that it is good that more people attentended.

But Pride itself is an interesting topic. I think if you are gay, black, white, Jewish, Korean, Budhist or what ever you are you should be proud. I don't know if this is ever true with Gay Pride. But often with Pride people overdue it. They are so proud of what they are they look down on others. Often Pride is another way of packaging hate. In stead of saying we hate blacks and hispancs and asains or what ever group(S) that person hates. They say We are proud to be white or what ever group they are in. But just be cause you say the same thing dosn't mean you share their same views. It dosn't matter if you are in a minority group or a majority group. When I was growing up I thought that some people where prejudiced and most people where not. But as I have grown up and learned a lot more. I have come to belive that most people are prejudiced aganist some body. Weather it be nationality, skin color, gender, religion, sexual orintation. You could even add political assocations but I don't know if that would really count. But what I think matters the most is how you treat some one. That is do you let your bias or prejudice influnace how you treat people. I think as long as you don't prejudice effect how you treat others then it is ok. Somestero types are really true. For example Irish Dancers dance from the waist down only. Yes that was part of a joke from I think chris rock but I'm not sure. I'm irish I thought it was funny. But there is a real reason for it, something along the lines of that the english made dancing illegal. From where the troops watched if you danced from the waist down they couldn't see it. So now it is carried on a tradition and a true sterotype.

I think that one of the goals of Pride Fest is to help everyone get along. I think it is ok for people who think homesexuality is sin to think that but to still except homosexuals as regular people. I think it is fine for them to be excepted into church as well. I don't know if Homosexuality is really anymore acpeted but it at least is loosing some of the stigma and is out more in public. I think it is good that there is a "gay community" (what ever that is) and that there are places where gays can be excepted and gay clubs and bars (never been to one). However it is still important to remember that there are lots of people in this country who are filled with hate and there are still lots of places like the millitary and Major sports where if you come out you would be ruined. But Pride being successfull is a step in the right dirrection and I hope things get better for not only gays but exceptance of everyone who is differant than you. For any one still reading this sorry for the book.

Weekend Yah

Even though I have to work on friday. I will start off on thursday. I think thursday at the square is one of the many great Buffalo events. There are always lots of hot ladies there. Thursday was no except ion, some of the ladies there where amazing. But that wasn't why I went. They are a nice distraction though. The first band was Breaking Point. I thought they where good. I bought a CD for the second band they did a metallica song wich suprised me "for whom the bell tolls" the girl selling Sumberged stuff was amazing also. Then the main act or headliners Theory of a Deadman. They really rocked, I had a great time. Plus the weather was great, perfect for a free out door show. They also annoced that on July 7 & 8 The Tea Party will be playing at Sphere. After words I watched the end of wrestling and watched MTV true Life: I'm dead broke. It was interesting. For anyone who thinks they are poor it would be a good show to watch and see how you compare to the people mtv featured.

I didn't do very much yesterday I started watching entourage on HBO in demand it is a good show and chated with an internet friend of mine. I admit that chating through IM's can be very nice. I'm not really a phone person but IM"s are cool I had two big pieces of Pie that where verry good.
The Pie kinda was my dinner.

Today I went to see Lords of Dogtown. I thought it was very good. I have also seen Dogtown and Z boyz wich is a documentary. This is a more hollywood view of it. I have to admit it was verry good. On the
back from an enjoyabel movie I stoped At Burger king for a nice lunch on the go. But I went to Starbucks for the first time. I went there to buy a CD. I know i don't know how to spell it right but i'll give it my best shot intiagony rising. I saw them I think last year downtown they are a girl band and where very good. Tonight I'm tapeing Hero, it is a jet li movie. I still have no idea what the Dyke March is. But I may go up on elmwood and see. I had such a nice walk today out in the lovely weather that I may not feal like heading back up there. Then there is some parade tommarow they are supposed to have floats and stuff who knows maybe I will head up that way. My mother also graduates again from Epire so I'm going to that but the two pridebuffalo things I don't know. I'm not gay so i don't see the point but I do like parades. On another note wow there sure have been a lot of vistors. And what is the pLabs link about and what happened to the estrip west link Just kinda wondering?

Katsino

[inlink]katrina,13[/inlink] There are a lot of people who think a Casino in Buffalo is a bad idea. I'm not one of them. But I think I know some of the reasons they disagree with them. People get addicted to gambaling and lose there money. Often they are local people. The jobs are poor paying. The casino makes a lot of money and dosn't really have to share it. Crime rates do sometimes go up around Casinos that means we need more police. It could cost us more to police it then the money we will make. Casinos in New York state are illegal. That means that they can only be run if the indains own the land and run them. That is another concern. I know someone who lives in the falls and they claim that the casino hasn't spawned any devolpment like they thought it might. The indains did build one hotel but other than that the falls really hasn't profited much. Maybe next time you see one of the anti casino bill signs or bumper stickers ask the person why. I'm sure they have more valid reasons then I stated.


I myself am for a Downtown waterfront Casino. That being said I don't think that a Casino will slove all the problems, it is not an emergancy fix everything Pill. I think it is one of many things that would help the city. Somepeople think it alone will fix the city. I think that it would be good to have more jobs In Buffalo. For someone who dosn't have a Job i think it gives a lot of opertunities. Plus it takes some power away from temp agancies I think they have to much power. I think there could be a good deal made so that the state, county and City get some money from the casino. There are two very nice Casinos on the Candain side of the falls. They got them built before us cause The Donald gave money to vote done legalisation of gambaling when they first wanted to bulid a casiono in the falls. I think the idea of a walmart in Downtown buffalo is kinda a good idea because you do need a place that sells a lot of stuff since more people are moving in and the area is growing. But I think it would be better to revitalise the Main Place mall, if that is possible. What killed the mall is that all the big chain stores moved out to the Galleria mall or other malls. I would also prefer for shops to open up as opposed to a wallmart. But I don't think anyone who isn't allready downtown or close to the area would drive in just to go to a wallmart. I prefer Target my self but that is just me.

Tim

I am the first to admit that I don't get really political on this elmwoodstrip. I don't know all of Tim's politics. I do know that he is a preservationist and an interesting guy. He is very nice so I thought I would pass this along to anyone who might be interested.

Tops

The other day these thre guys in black suites and black sunglasses show up at my house and say I had better mention I go to tops also if I know what is good for me then they say they where never there. I'm of course kidding but I do shop at tops also. I know some people go to Alda and Sav-A-lot. The way one needs to shop is by wich place has more stuff on sale that they need. I do know somepeople use coupons and will go to multiple places in a day and get what is cheaper at both stores. I've gone to tops a couple times to get SOBE it was on sale for a dollar. But they didn't have a lot of falvors. But they did have the sobe lean wich is usaly hard to find. I'm not a lean person. This brings me to another point when you see things that are fat reduced are they really any better for you. I say not. because when the fat is reomoved something has to take it's place. Often from what I have found is that things with fat removed have much higher sugar levels. That gets me to Splenda and other fake sugar. I eat enough crap with all kinds of chemicals in it so I'm no one to talk. But if you are trying to be healthy just buy something with sugar in it. I'm sure the the sugar is better for you then what ever chemical they add that acts as sugar.
