I went to the sbres game last night. It was a fun game to watch but the sabres could have done better they lost in the shootout. It was interesting sitting in the second row of section 308. I'm not used to looking down but you can really see very good and it is eiser to follow the puck. There where a ton of Gretzky jersys wich was interesting (he's the coach). I'm going to saturday's game vs. the kings. I hope the sabres do better. I plan on putting up some pics from both games. Tonight is The Bandits season opener in Toronto I will be listing to it verry soon. A week from Saturday is the home opener again vs. The Toronto Rock. I bought season tickets this year and will be having a blast right up on the glass. I'm sure I will put up some Bandits pics this season as well. That reminds me I think Football has some other competion this weekend NBC has some hockey on saturday I think but not sure what time. I don't know if The Lacrosses all star game and finals will be on Live like they where last year, I hope so. I'm thinking about try to get tickets on line for the allstar game in toronto. Hopefully next time i post I will bring up some issues.

The link there is to the full news article about myspace. It was more about the young kids who use it but still interesting I admit I like both it and (e:strip). I worte the guy an (e:mail) and let him know that I liked both here and myspace. Ihave no idea if he will check out this site out or not. The article seemed more like it was about parents knowing what there kids where doing and the things they would confess online. I havn't seen any articles there about (e:strip) there but they do talk about other blogs. So if you think you might be interested check it out.

I can't belive stamps went up. For those of you that communcate through the web and pay all your bills on line then that is a nice savings but most people don't do both the minority of people pay at tops or through the internet. New york state sales tax just went up. So for those who get paid Minimum wage and just got a raise now how much of raise did you really get since the tax went up half a cent. It is like the Regal there prices sneak up every so often and you don't notice it untill you think back a couple years and compare prices. I saw Fun with dick and jane over the past weekend I enjoyed it. I had more of a point of how prices went up but lost it somewhare. On another note I thought Truffles where candy oh well little do I know.

Some random thoughts on various things to hit on. Firstly on the TV front. Starting Tuesday at 10pm New Episode of Miami Ink are on. I think it is an interesting show I saw the ad during one of the episodes I missed last season on a marathon last night (on A&E). I Posted about Rollergirls and today they had a good review of it in the Buffalo News. I thought it was a good discrtion of the show. I have seen a couple good reality shows lately One is MTV True life I'm a gun Owener very interesting. But the true life "Im moving to NY was also verry interesting. The price of rent is unbelivable. I also saw part two of Taxicab confessions NeW York New York. It was raunchy like it is sometimes but it was still entertaing.

The steelers and Redskins won over the weekend wich was awesome but the sabres lost oh well. I'm going to the game on thursday I'll be in the 300 level hopefully I will get some pics and post them then I'm going to the game on saturday as well. Both teams are from the west coast Phoenix and the KIngs will be fun if they can win both that would be awsome my sabres luck isn't the best. On Friday the Bandits (lacrosse) season starts they play in toronto. I don't know if the games are on the radio like they where last year. With Hockey and Football it will be a busy weekend. If I'm not around here I hope everyone has a great weekend. Oh yeah the Senecas are still in the news. I read some article about them moving along and calling in people to suggest designs for the casino don't remember the entire article from the news. I know I forgot something but don't really remember sith so many random thoughts. Of to catch the end of wife swap and then Wrestling to find out what happend at the PPV.

There is an interesting article in artvoice it is the cover story and can be found at www.artvoice.com . For any one who is interested in reading it is right there at artvoices website. In a previous journal [inlink]metalpeter,460[/inlink] I posted a long artvoice article about the writers trip to china. Towards the end of the article the writer presents idea about how the NFTA should expand the Niagara falls airport and how they could get a ot of flights from other countries. He mentions that Buffalo or Niagara Falls (if don't count them as the same) is in a great cental area for people from other countires to go to boston, toronto, montreal and a bunch of other big cities. Recntly I have read a Buffalo news article where they bascily dismissed or said this idea was stupid (if I remember correctly). I wish I would have thought to post it at that time. I'm guessing by now it is archieved but not sure. In any event in the new artvoice article they attack the Buffalo News and even give some exmples of bad ideas the Buffalo News supported. There general point there was that since so many people read the news they helped push there idea on the people and the city of Buffalo. Not sure if I really agree with that or not but it is a good point. From what I have read on both sides I agree with artvoice (or the writer of the article). I can remember years ago when the Concord was the most famous plane but it couldn't land in Buffalo because the runway wasn't long enough. That is the advantage the NF airport has you can land huge planes there and form asia it takes just as long to fly to the east coast as it does west coast. That seems had to belive but I assume there facts are correct. I think that the steps taken to improve the airport and get international flights into Buffalo is a great idea. Do I think a China town will form like in the article, no but it would be possible I think just dismissing the idea is a bad idea. Don't be affrid to chime in, even if it is to say who gives a fuck.

I hope to talk more about advertisng soon. But for right now I will start with one distrubing add for a place called HUSH. there is a new Lunge in Casino Niaigara called Hush. I don't know if it is supposed to be a gay club or gay friendly club. If it isn't then they sure picked a bad model. I can't tell if it is girl or a guy. I don't have any problems with guys who look like girls or vice versa, or gays or transexuals. But that being said I don't understand how that ad could be aimed at stright guys and girls. To me it seems as if they are trying to sell androgeny wich is fine. But I have a fealling that, that was not the attempt. Hopefully I can do a little more reaserch and get more answers. I don't even have time to rant about that creepy burger king who wakes up next to the guy in bed but maybe that will be my next post who knows. Go Redskins, Go Sabres I'm off to watch sports and see if I see any other weird adds.

Over the holiday there were a bunch of marathons. I did watch some of the Monty Phyton one. I wasn't in the mood to watch the Tlight zone. But sometimes other stations willl put on atleast 3 episodes on in a row it is a good way to get caught up on shows that you have missed or that you might be interested in. I have heard of some people who wont watch a show untill there is a marathon that way they get the entire story at once instead of waiting a week. I wish I could have watche the 24 hours of 24 on A&E but that was to intense. But it is a great way to cathch up.

There are lots of sports to do in the winter. I used to ski some but never learned how to snowboard or race snowmobiles or any of that stuff. I admit I love watching it but don't see it as often as I like. There have been lots of differant kinds of sking in the olympics for a long time. But snowboarding was (im my opionion) put in because it was verry popular and to try and cut into A huge market and a sport wich is growing at a large rate. But that being said both snowboarding and sking can be seen live at the X games. For more info go to EXPN.com . One aspect that I really like is when they do Moto X on the snow that is amazing. The schedulle I got is for what will be shown on TV. Sometimes what is shown changes based on weather and snow conditions. Also some of the events that are finals the last of runs are on sportscenter live from the site and then some times they give you some sports news and then go back to the event live. I'm not going to get into the debate of if it is better for them to be live or not (they used to be taped and then showed). I have never tried it but I think there is a way you can watch all the events live over there site. I'm sure some the the athletes at Winter X will be at the olympics also it happend the same way 4 years ago, wow I can't belive that was 4 years ago I can bearly remember it.

Before I get to the show Rollergirls that I taped last night and watched today. When I got home last night a had a phone message on my machine from a buddy of mines father that his son had a daughter. I didn't know what to say on a call back so i left it at that. It is hard for me to imagine him with a kid.

There is this show on A&E called Rollergirls it was on last night and is repeated tonight at 10 pm. If you go to www.aetv.com you can get more info on the show. One thing I got from there are the pictures below. The show is a reality show that follows girls who play Roller Derby. I used to really like watching that it was fun. Plus there are a lot of fine chicks playing it. It is also a ruff sport. The league they play in is in Austin, Texas. I don't know if each show is going to be the same way. But this one Was about the Rookie Venis Envy number 9 and 1/2 and her life outside of the game and with her team mates and what goes on outside of the sport. But they also had highlites and a preaty good overview of one of there games. I think it is a good series, at least based on the first show.

Cool all 5 Pictures Worked. I decided to only do 5 incase they didn't work. If you are interested in seeing more pictures from the new years game I went to I have two links for you. They are (this one is the newyears day game) and (2 previous games). Over the season I will add more pictures the two albums. I'm going to 1 more game for sure and i'm thinking about going to a game a couple days before that one.
