I don't think my boss, co workers or family know, if so they have never mentioned it. I do use my own Photo. But that is good cause it makes it eaiser to vent. And i can be more personal.

Lifestyle:
1. In what way has estrip changed your Internet surfings habits? Describe the amount of time you spend on estrip, when you use it and about how long?

It depends on what topics get posted. Sometimes It seemed to take hours to read the AJ/Jason/josh political wars was way to much reading and took to much time so I stoped. Maybe an hour a day. Assuming there isn't an interesting chat going on publicly. I think I still spend about as much time on line. But I do it here as opposed to using a forum site.

1a. How many journals do you usually read per day?

Depends on how many people have posted but I would guess about 14. I always have to read (e:thecarey) , (e:ladycrofts) , (e:jenks) and (e:Imk2) if the journal is something I don't care about I skip to the next one.

2. In what ways has estrip changed the way you perceive your local community?

not sure.

3. How has journaling about your life affected the way you spend your free time?

I'm a litlle bit more social. I go to some (e:strip) parties, go to bars and wind up having a fun time my self as opposed to with peeps cause I always mess it up some how. Sometimes I will hear about an event that I forgot about and will wind up going (Henery Rollins).

4. Has estrip changed your living situation in any way?

no

5. Do you find that you mediate/document more of your experiences now that you share them with others?

Yes because I never had a journal, so I do document more.

My writing was always kinda crapy, and it still is. But at least I get practice typing and do some writting.

7. Do you have other online journals? If so, with what service and has estrip affected your usage of that journal?

Well I do have my space but I was allready on (e:strip). So since (e:strip) was first it really couldn't affect it. I do journal sometimes there but that isn't why I joined it.

8. Have you ever gotten in trouble for using estrip at work?

I don't use it at work. One I don't have the time. and more importantly I like to be able to vent freely with out people at work talking to me about what I wrote. Not to mention my Sociopolitcal views varry grately from theres so it would just cause more arguments and debate wich can be fun but all day would get ugly.

9. If you have stopped using estrip, why?

I may have stoped using it for a little bit. Something happend but I don't remember what so I may be miss remembering.

Well in Honor of journal #669 I thought I would have a little bit of fun and put up some pictures of ladies that it would be fun to 69. I followed a few guidelines other wise there might be hunderds of pictures up. I tried to use small pics. I wanted to use mostly actresses I think there are a few exceptions. This is only a partial list of famous chicks. I also decided not to use any nudity. The reason is that some of them like Tara Reid and Jamie Pressley (how ever you spell it) have legit nude pictures. But some other peoples might not be like Jessica Alba. This is not meant to be a sex fantasy post. I wouldn't post that here. That is why I didn't use any Porn Stars like Jenna Jamison, Tara Patrick, or Asia Carera. These are just the people who came to my mind first.

On sunday went with the family to Old Man Rivers and that river walk park. Think it is called Niawanda Park or something like that. I had fun and the weather was great. Not sure if I prefer them to Missipi Muds. Missippi muds does have that cool upstairs part. There was a good crowd. Some kid had a pet farrett on a leash and it was walking around the resturant. Then in the park there was from a distance looked like a dalmation but it had a fluffy white tail so it was an interesting day.


The link is to one of my webshots albums for MIA 06. I thought I would post 3 pics. All the pictures came out good as pictures. But some of them are kinda dark and some of them are great. Looking at them is at least a good way to kill time.

Mainly writing this post to vent and once writen I will as a test make it a private post and see if it works. So some of you may wind up reading it or it may be invisable we shall see.

Phones gernerally realy piss me off. Last night I get a phone call from someone who dosn't have anything to say. What the fuck, if you don't have anything to say or any reason to call then don't call. I saw some stand up comedian go on this same topic for about 3 minutes. But it is true why call if you have nothing to say. For example this morining Jen and Mike where on line. I could have said Hello to both of them but I didn't really have anything else to say; so I figured why bother.

Phone messages. I get mostly junk phone calls. The ones where they say that it is verry important that you call them back and they give some phone number. If it is so fucking important for me to call back then give me some details am I going to die in a month and life insurance has run out, is my dick small and I don't know it. and this pill will add 4 inches, has my credit information been stolen, tell me so that I know what it is about. The one that makes me the most upset is when they ring you pick up or the machine gets it and they say please hold for an important message. What the fuck, hold you called me ashole. Shit like this makes me wants to do like that guy did on the snickers commerical and fly to that tellamarketers place and smash his phone.

I was looking for some files on the computer today to add to my screensaver wich didn't work PPS files and webshots won't work togather I guess. I found a picture of Timika. I gotta admit I kinda miss that bright pink hair. For some reason I felt like running my hand through it, I think I may be losing my mind. Considering it is a picture.


Update:
When I put it into draft mode then I couldn't see it either when I was loged in. So I figured fuck it we'll keep it public. I think I confussed this with another site that I go to where you can make posts private and public sorry about that. I restored it so that is ok. Maybe I'll go for a walk down elmwood today and take some pics who knows.

I went to see the newest Fast and the Furious movie. I liked it a lot. If you like hot chicks fast cars and some action then it is your thing. With out giving anything away I'm glad that it had a story and that they built the story up. Not just starting with kids racing cars in Japan. If you have seen the ads someone makes a Cameo. If you don't know who it is I won't ruin it. Hopefully they will come out with a 4th and it will pick up where this one ends. That brings me to my Next Point saw a Preview for Miami Vice. My first thought was The Movie looks good and I'll go see it since I liked the show, wich ironicly started as a TV Movie if I remember Correctly. My next thought was Colin Farell great actor and He makes a good Sunny/Corket/Burnet but then I thought hey but Don Johson would be better hey and here's and Idea lets get the other actors from the show back also. Maybe they want to distance them selves fromt the show in case it flops or maybe because they want to do a series of movies or maybe even bring out a new verison of the series. I wounder if the old cast members where even contacted?

Glad everyone who went to see Soundclash and Soulive at the square had fun. I was stage Right or the left side of the stage on the grass. It was hug fest again. All these girls kept hugging it seemed, they where all preaty cute to. Even Two guys behind me hugged. Yeah being hugged by a cute girl I don't know might have been strange but they could have at least been considerate and thought about me. One funny thing was there was this cute short little girl who I swear looked just like Katie Holmes but with lighter hair she was a hottie and always kissing verry softly her man. One part that made My day was these two girls where togather (no out ward signs that they were lovers or anything) When one of the girls hugged this other girl and she didn't lose it, but when the hug got to be a little longe she pulled back on the hoodie she was wearing and let girl know but it seemed preaty friendly. I really enjoyed the show but it is so hard to concentrate on the show when there are all these ladies standing around me. There was even this tall thin blonde chick and her boobs where right at eye level How am I supposed to watch who was on stage. I manged somehow and got a few pics. When I got there I didn't see any of those you going to burn in hell signs, did those guys find somplace else to protest or do maybe they like Soulive?

I plan on going to see who ever is playing on thursday, it maybe Blues Travler I hope to maybe take pictures of some fine ladies who knows. Oh yeah I put one MIA 06 pictures on my webshots page but it is only day 1. I have to make album #2 this week some time.

Post #669 is coming up soon so I have to find pics on the web of ladies you know I would like to 69 but since I'm in the 600 I would say it would at least have to be 6 of them.

My computer is starnge I was on here the other day and the banners would show up on (e:strip) now there are no banners, whacky computer. If anyone is still reading this? Has anyone here ever wrote a post and made it private? I'm thinking about maybe doing one private as a way to maybe vent somestuff with out having people read it. I belive once you post it you just click on that eye but I have never done one before. I know I'm forgetting something else I want to talk about but not sure what that is.

I hope the weather is nice on thursday for the square. I want to go see SouLive. I saw them once at townballrooom. They are a great live band with all kinds of instruments. On another note I've started to upload pictures to webshots if I ever get them all up I'll post a link to them. I wanted to stay out of the main st. debate but I got drawn in. Its a verry interesting topic but sometimes people yell or get angery really quick when you talk about race, culture and social class so sometimes debates or discussions can become diffacult. Maybe if I go to the square I'll take the camara.

That is the art I bought I just lost 7 pictures to the site they are to big to really post and shirnking them all takes way to much time on my computer currently so right now posting more pics really won't work som maybe if I get access to a high speed internet acess computer I'll put some more up. What I wanted to do was tell a story with the pictures but I guess I will have to do that with my webshots page I'll let you know when they are put up. If anyone said anything to me in chat I wasn't blowing you off but my chat frezes some times and if loading pictures it dies basicly. Why is it that when I run into people I don't think to break out the camara. I do think this on chick was checking me out at Allentown or maybe it was just my giant cookie.

I will include more pictures later but I'm short on time.

On my way to the bank I ran into (e:Ladycroft) that was a pleasant surprise unlike the artic wind that was Blowing. Then later I ran into Paul, Matt, Terry and Holly and talked for a few.

I like how at MIA they have interactive art that you can watch. Hopefully when I post more pics of bands you will see the pictures behind the stage change or get added two how ever you say that.

I know I heard some bands that I liked who names I don't remember but the ones that I know I liked where The Juliet Dagger and
The Voo Doo Dolies and Klear. Klear has another new lead singer He is a lot better I think then the guy they had last year.

Some of the dancing was really amazing. They had more Poleplay dancing on sunday again. Sorry for scatterd thoughts. The night endend with people who dance to fire to the performance of Robie's band Amungus not sure if I spelled it right. I did buy some art to that when I put it up I will hopefully put up the artists web site. I have tons of pictures and will try to tell the story with out puting up to many of them.

First of all I ran into 3 peeps. I ran into Walt, Lee and Lee's mom. Then late at night I ran into Chris I can't remember if he posts as chris I know he was at the Holloween party. I thought I saw Tony from a distance. Yeah I admit I didn't think to get the Camara out for lee and walt and I did think about it when I saw chris but my batteries where preaty low and I needed to save what was left for the fire dancing at the end. I ran into a UPS Driver I know from work at one of the food stands that was interesting, I belive it is called Pistol or pistols great baked Potatoe really good.

Not sure what my favorite band was a saw a few I had never heard of. Lisa Loeb was good I actually had heard some of the songs she did that surprised me. Toy Box Heros I think they are called was Preaty good and so was last Conserative. My two favorite things I think where the Stripteasers and Pole Play presents Eye Candy: of course I had trouble with my batteries when girls in langire danced on poles (no nudity it is a family show). Anal Pudding is always interesting.

There was some preaty cool art both there and At Allentown. I will be going back today. I have to see The Juilet Dagger and The Voodo Dollies. Plus maybe buy some more art. No pictures yet but hopefully next week some time. Hope everyone has a great time this weekend.

I will be assuming the weather is ok be going from my place to MIA and between that and allentown all weekend. Who knows maybe I'll run into some of you peeps there. There is also a Music festival at Nietches on Allen That I will not be at. Oh yeah plus a buddy of mine found me today on myspace so that is cool. I usaly run into him somewhare there so it may be an interesting weekend. Completely randomly. I'm looking for some more art for the house. Even though I have wrestling posters and sabres poster and a couple starwars ones that I have to meassure and frame still. Not sure what I want really I usaly know when I see it. Have a great weekend all. Hopefully after the weekend I will post a few pics and then put them all up at webshots but not sure.
