So first of all I noticed that I got to 900 journals not quite sure how but I did, man that is a lot of writing. On top of all that "talking" I have posted 2,176 comments not really sure if that is a lot or not but it sounds like it might be. Ok back to why I wrote this. Last night I went to see Lewis Black. I admit that I had trouble staying awake. Yes he was funny but all the sitting down at the end of a long day at just that time. I thought both he and the opener were funny and had a great time with both guys routine. Before the show I went to Fridays and had a couple drinks and a good burger and the place was packed so things to some time but still had a great time. But that made be get to sheas latter then I planed. That wasn't a problem except I couldn't get to the merch table cause people where just standing around not heading in just standing in the way. So no shirt for me nor no bobble heads, but all in all a good time.

On my way home I went to Nietches (first time finaly) and saw a cool band who was kinda a funky jazz band, not sure how else to describe it and had a good time and a few drinks. I will admit there wasn't that many people there but a few of the ladies (with guys and not by them selves) where pretty cute. After words I went home and went to bed. It felt so good to sleep in and not have to work today. However the massive headache didn't feel good at all (Hang over and congestion headache all at the same time I think). That lead me to not wind up doing anything. I was supposed to go to target and hunt down some stuff for a costume for the club diablo concert tonight. I may or may not go still not sure it sure would be fun. Again I have never been there only seen it from the outside. So hopefully I can find what I'm looking for so I can be in costume on Saturday. I'm thinking I may try to get a pumpkin somewhere. It is to bad ex-cel closed cause I know they used to sell them.

The sabres play tonight maybe I can watch them lose, kidding kind of. Also in terms of sports I'm glad the Bandits season is back on, I'm really happy about that. I wish I could get a helmet and black lacrosse shorts and a stick since I have two Jersys I could go as a Buffalo Bandit but i don't see that Happening, I'll figure something out on saturday. Besides that how would I Cary my camera.

So If I remember correctly I went with the dark flower as my user picture around Valentines day. If I remember correctly there where a lot of anti valentines day posts. Well Today I found out that Saturday is Sweetest day. If I only knew of one of "Message parlors" in my hood that might be a great way to spend it. From what I understand it is the 3rd Saturday of October and that makes it only a day away. I'm thinking maybe I will buy myself something. I think that I may as a way of kinda mocking the holiday but also being nice finding every lady who is a myspace friend and giving them a sweetest day greeting. I wonder if they even make them at any of those myspace sites. I wish I was artist so I could draw something very dark with tears of blood that form a rose or something like that. Or maybe I can just listen to Hawthorne Heights all day. Not sure what I will do other then try to see a movie in some form. So for those of you who think it is a made up Holiday Fuck Sweetest day!!!!!!! And for those of you deep in love I Hope it is an awesome day!!!!!!!!! Oh and for those of you who are in love but think it is a bullshit holiday then treat each other great all the time and don't use it or valentines day as an excuse to treat each other great just twice a year, not including birthdays and aniversaries. Have a great weekend everyone.

So I weird thing happened today I'm listing to music at work and one of Bryan Adams song comes on and it reminded me that it was a song at a prom a long, long, time ago. That got me to thinking that you know how there are all those complication CDs has there ever been one called Prom Songs? It would be perfect it really would be. So that got me to thinking about that I wonder if kids who use myspace or friendster or what ever site they use can now (unlike when I was a kid) can have prom pictures and slide shows with all there friends. It would kinda be like an online year book. I have no idea if people actually do this. But my next thought was they could even expand it and once in College ad semi formals and stuff like that. That is about as far as my mind could go at work.

The Category is philosophy so I guess I should expand those thoughts a little bit. I wonder does having a digital camera and taking pictures and posting them change what it is to go to a prom. At first I thought no, it is just a different way to document it. But maybe it does what if you are the kid who trips and falls into the punch bowl. Before that was a funny story that maybe moved through school. But now the people who like it might post that picture cause it is funny and the person who tripped you posts it as a way of humilating you on line. To kinda follow that up If you are dancing a pose so someone can get that good shot does that change anything. What about the posse of boys or even girls who go together as friends not because they are gay. If other people take pictures and post them would that change how they view them selves going togather? Again I don't really have the answers just things to kinda think about.

Now then this gets me thinking a little bit about those sex pictures that got posted on (e:strip). The first thing is sex pictures should all ways be taken and posted with consent. I admit when I first saw them I did like them. That being said I'm not sure the intent of putting them up was right. I also think that any picture posted about anything should be put up for the same reason it is taken (generally). For example if I took a picture with an (e:peep) could be anyone lets say (e:theecarey) , (e:imk2), and (e:ladycroft) and when we took it we where having fun at a party. If I post that picture then fine. But lets say we get into a debate on (e:strip) and I get upset at one of them then it would be wrong to post that picture and say how one of those people is a back stabber or something along those lines. I know if it was me I would be pissed that this person was using a picture from when we where all having fun and is now using that picture as a negative. So I can't even Imagine sex pictures that way. I know if I had sex with some girl and she said I was a bad lay I would be upset but, hey if it was true then I could learn from it. But if she posted pictures of me or worse yet video of when things went wrong then I would be pissed. But see it would be different if we had a great time and she was reflecting back and said "Pete was a real asshole sometimes" But we sure had fun taking nude pics and posted them in a positive light. That is why I don't really have a problem with most of those famous sex videos is I think most of them where leaked not as a way to get back at someone plus in those you have to remember both people are in it.

So somehow my mind wonders to someplace completely different. But that is me and I don't know as I can get back on track. Other then to say I think documenting things like the prom, or parties is a good Idea and can be fun. Plus it is a good way to share thing with friends on line or who are out of town. But I do think that sometimes it can effect what you are doing. My joke at a couple parties has been if I catch on fire please take some pictures of it. Yes I would like someone to make sure I don't get burned to death but those with cameras should take pictures as a way to document it. I think that maybe someone should do a study on this and maybe they could get a grant to do this study. Hey another cool study would be to see how people on reality shows change based on the Video Cameras. I think a cool one would be one of those Newport or Laguna shows where the cameras can't film in the schools.

In any event Haven't had much to say lately so In case I don't have anything else to say hope everyone has a great weekend!!!!!

I have to admit as much as I like music I don't hear enough new music or enough local music. I also admit that I have never made it to Club Diablo. But there is an event there that I'm thinking about going to. Often the problem is on Friday after a long work week I don't feel like going out But this event does sound like it might be fun. Hopefully I make it.

I will admit that the wood carvings that have been made for Carving for a cause I haven't seen all of them, in person. The ones of Jim Kelly and Chris Bermen looked very cool on TV. I guess on Friday they had some thing at the waterfront but I got to see the carvings on Thursday. Here are a few pictures in no order.

































I guess the fact that these carvings are a way to reuse trees destroyed from the October surprise It is only fair to go back in time and put up a few pictures from then.











Ok back to the Marina since the last time I've been there things have changed a little bit. By the way I'm I the only one who thinks it could be used all winter long? Granted I'm not sure what for but it shouldn't be closed at least.

So I have been a little, Ok a lot behind keeping up with (e:strip) between being sick, going out, my sis's whiny cat. But I'm finally kinda caught up today and to my welcome surprise there are sex pictures and a boob in another journal. Maybe this is a new trend I'm not sure but it looks like people have been having a lot more fun then I have lately. Tuesday I was all ready to join in the fun and go out for Pizza and go to the 24. That is until I had a slice of Pizza for lunch and it did some bad things to my throat it was burning and I could taste the pizza in my throat it was gross. It looks like everyone had a great time and I'm glad they did. I think was out cold by about 9pm. The other thing that tired me out was seeing henry Rollins the night before here is a quick recap.

I went to see Henry Rollins spoken word at the Town Ballroom and had a great time. It is hard to sum up 3 hours in a blog really but I will try to hit some key talking points. Henry really jumps around in his stories but it still tottally makes sense. He is funny even though I don't know if he allways means it that way.

-there are a couple times that he mentions that he was in a place where he was more into the documenting what was going on then just doing it and it was like he was outside his body watching what was going on (I found that interesting)
-There was something he said about Comi-con and a few people cheered and then he joked about the people and about how they don't have girlfriends and that was a nice little bit.
-Talks about how he does shows here because of how awesome the manager is and how he has bailed him out of deep snow even in Albany
- He talks about how the tour get named and that he thinks it shouldn't have to have one and gets into why it is called Provoked
- He talked about playing with this group he really liked when they had a Benifit for them Called the Ruts we found out that when we came in the music playing was them. During this story someones pnone went off. I thought he would jump of the stage but instead he started acting out the phone call on stage then went right back into story, that was so funny I almost died right there. That was a long story but it was pretty intersting to see how someone can battle through the pain to play a benifit show
-He flew from Bruit to San Fran just to see Nick Cave and it was tottaly worth it
-He bashes people who won't think and just stay in their ideas some of this was based on people who write him
-When he goes to Lebonon he sees a lot of american type places but then finds some cool places to see
-He went to both dubai and Syria. As long as you don't get a stamp from Isreale you can go to syria . and the serian's were surprised he was there and if you come from there you get extra questions But rollins wanted more then they gave him.
-I forget the country but he gets a iraqi cab driver, he allways talks to cabies by the way. The gist is that when America undid the army they made a mistake and the general crazzyness in iraq. Both guys are sorry that america will never leave the country. Rollins goes into a great example of being on fox news to prove that just because you work someplace and have a boss doesn't mean that you like them, like how the army and iraqis didn't like saddam and where glad when they got rid of him
-Talks about how Bush talks and that runs into a great one about how He meet Christopher Walken that was very funny
-He starts a story about how an aligator tried to eat some crack head and then expands that to how it would be cool to have some predators in the city and how it would change things if when you went to your car you might have to outrace a puma.
-He also talks about how the private sector is going to help the vets because the military says some of these guys where allready messed up.
-Tells eveyone to vote and that he doesn't care who you vote for
- He jokes a few times about how long the show will be and maybe it might be even 5 hours and at the end says 3 hrs 1 min.

I know it doesn't really sound funny, but it is one of those things you kinda have to be there for. It was great and the time flew by.

So for any of you who are fans you know the sabres lost their first two games, to bad I was hoping they would start out strong like last year, but it is still very early and I would rather them finish strong and be week in the begging then the other way around. Not that I believe me passing out on both games has anything to do with them losing but if I does I'm sorry. First game I saw the Banners dropped and the New Scoreboard (looked the same to me as at the preseason game) and not much else. I have been and am still sick. Man there was a lot of scoring I missed in the 1st game. I did see some of the goals last night but didn't make it through the entire game. Hopefully I can get healthy cause the Bills are on Monday night, then Tuesday I'm going to see Henry Rollins, then if my sickness is over on the next night it is the (e:strip) dinner at Casa and then the 24 but If I'm sick still then I don't want to get anyone else that way, hopefully I'll be better by then.

If the above link works correctly (sometimes I have trouble with it) it will take you to my Sabres pictures on my webshots page. There is no way I'm going to post all of them here. Saturday I had a good time. Plus the sabres won. There was hot blond behind me and a Lady with nice boobs to my right. I wasn't trying to look but when play went to my left it was kinda tough not to see them. Even though the Sabres won I wish the Penguins would have let Crosby play. Friday the season starts and they are having that Party at the plaza before the game, I may go but guessing I'll just watch it on TV.

Warm Ups (in No order really)

It seems that around this time of the year things get very busy and there are lots of things to do and lots of Shows returning to TV and then cool new shows to watch. With all the stuff going on I still have 3 more Hockey Games I'm going to. I wouldn't mind taking a road trip to go see a game somewhere but I doubt that is going to happen. But hopefully as I see more games I can give highlights of the pictures I take. Hopefully these ones where good ones to pick sometimes viewing them small it is hard to tell.

A few nights ago I went to see Megadeth and had a great time at the Town Ballroom it was a very crowded and packed show. I also liked the two opening bands "The Confession" and not sure of the exact name but something along the lines of "in this moment" my one problem was having trouble hearing some of her vocals. I did like that she wore a dress and head banged.

Tonight the sabres are playing the Penguins (right now I'm guessing) and then I'm going to the Saturday night game in Buffalo, that is there final preseason game I think. Yes I'll be yelling for the sabres but I like the penguins to and want to see if their uniforms look really any different. This year all the teams are going to new jerseys but I don't know if they will really effect the look of them or not.

I had a good time at (e:theecarey)'s bonfire Fiesta. I admit I didn't eat much and there where a bunch of people I didn't know and didn't say much but still had a good time. I will admit I didn't think I would make it there but I have to thank (e:mike) who had room in his car. So here are the pictures. Oh one other thing I wanted to add was last night I saw one of I think the coolest Family guys I've seen in a long time. It was there star wars episode. I think my favorite might have been at the end when Chris (voiced by Seth Green I believe) calls his dad out that Robot Chicken did a star wars show like 3 months ago and then Peter goes on to say something like it isn't a real network and that like only 10 people watch it when he lists the real networks fox isn't mentioned either. Oh yeah on a another side note the new season of Heroes starts tonight. Ok now on to the pictures.















In terms of the fire pictures it looks like most of them came out or will come out good. The thing is that if you use a flash and are able to make it bright enough to see the people good than that most of the time makes it bright so you can't really see the fire. The above pictures where in order but these fire pictures won't be.







Some group shots?































Very soon the fire was going to get very hot when you get to the pictures with the high flame you will know what I mean.



















When we first arrived we heard that later on the donkey would be braught out hey it was a mexican theme we thought we would get to see or maybe even partake in a donkey show but it turned out to be A pinata. After the pictures I got there was some fun had with a donkey head I can't wait to see how those pictures of I think (e:theecarey)'s camera but here are my pictures.

















Those above should have been in order. Once the donkey got smashed opened it was determined that there was stuff still in there so it got kinda put back together and destroyed more. Here is what should be the last set of pictures from Carey's Birthday Bonfire Party.












Sorry (e:ladycroft) to mention how one thing reminds me about something about you again. But this party did a little bit. Of course the fire part did and your graduation party. But it also reminded me of how at both parties there where kinda these two groups of people there that generaly didn't interact with each other that much. But that is kinda natural when you have two groups who know the people in the own group and socialise with each other naturally. I'm not saying that the groups didn't interact at all. I also think that it is more common then people realise. That being said I had a great time and can't wait to see some more pictures from the party online. Hope you all enjoyed my pictures and didn't get tired of all the fire ones.
