HAPPY 4th of JULY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Remember that if you are off Today it is because others are Working....

If You have a Paid Day off thank your company for paying you to do Nothing.........
Then Try and Make up for the time off not saying it is possible to make up the 8 hrs of work but at least try they did just pay you to do nothing ....

Hoping that watching The Women and Men on Espn3.com works we shall see... How can one not like competitive eating it is awesome......

I want to expand those thoughts I posted on facebook cause I'm not sure if what they mean is understood by others..

I'm still not sure if I'm doing anything tonight but the point is a lot of people are and a of people have to work at all those firework displays.... Plus you have people working at stores so you can have stuff for the celebrations.........

Think the work thing everyone should get granted this mainly is true at places where you have a certain amount of work that needs to get done....

Thought process got broken up Happy 4th everyone....

So even with out Megan Fox
1. Guess she called Bay a Nazi and the powers that be not him made him get rid of her.... Why is stating a fact that he didn't object to worth firing someone for.... That is how I run things and you should know that coming in and if you can't work in that style then save us both time......
2. The New chick is just as hot and kinda has that same kinda look to her
3. So guess that changed the story a tiny bit but not much....
4. Stars from the other movies are in there as well

I thought Transformers was a lot of fun.... Again not really sure how much 3D stuff was in there but I never am... If you liked the other movies or the Micheal Bay blow everything up you will enjoy.......

The Social Network: Watched that last night and thought it would be more... When I first heard of a facebook movie I thought how stupid but then it got good reviews.... I also thought it was R and it was like PG what happened to all the nudity there are parties and hot tubes but no tits boo.... I still enjoyed it..... I do find it ironic that myspace has just been sold .... And that Justin Timberlake (played the napster guy) is now a big part of the new myspace..... Again have no idea if it will change at all or if this is just a way to get people talking about it.... I like myspace but never really have the time for it....

In terms of Previews Two movies that look very good are Mission Impossible ghost...... And Cowboys & Aliens .... Don't get me wrong I like Daniel Craig and all but this and the other spy movie makes me think we really need another great James Bond Movie soon..... This is just me I wonder if they are trying to figure out if they should do 3D. If that worked wouldn't it be amazing that when James looks over his shoulder the guys skiing down the picnic tables skis come right at you and when snow flies it looks like it jumps off the screen and all the movie places a blast of cold air comes in... Or when the missiles shot out of the car they fly right over your head and you hear the sound of them fly buy and the blow up only from the back speakers.... If they filmed it only in 3D and had the movements right it could be amazing they could even set up a special bench for people to sit on for after the movie.......

Not sure what I will watch tonight....Hoping for something I haven't seen but not sure that will Happen......

So there is supposed to me a meeting to see if they can work something out about getting a place to eat at the Naval Park... My take is after the two articles......

Fontana seeks meeting on Naval Park restaurant

Council Majority Leader Richard A. Fontana said today that he wants to facilitate a meeting next week between the Brown administration and the Buffalo & Erie County Naval and Military Park over a proposed restaurant on the waterfront.

A partnership of established restaurateurs had been prepared to open an indoor-outdoor eatery in the Naval Park this summer, with Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp. offering to pay $200,000 for the buildout.

Mayor Byron W. Brown put on the brakes, claiming he was not consulted in advance by the city-owned Naval Park. He also has said he wants to renegotiate the lease with the cash-strapped museum so it pays a larger share of utility costs, and creates a new revenue-sharing formula.

"What I see as majority leader is an agreement that could happen. I've asked both sides to come together. We're going to meet, hopefully next week, and see if we can get this thing settled and hammered out," Fontana said.

Fontana said he also supports the mayor's attempt to lower the city's share of the museum's utility costs.

"Frankly, what I see the mayor asking for is very fair, it's doable, and I just think the process needs to happen."

City leaders faulted on Naval Park restaurant
Higgins calls delay in opening ‘a failure’

Rep. Brian Higgins expressed anger and frustration Wednesday over the failure to get a restaurant open this summer at the Buffalo & Erie County Naval and Military Park on the waterfront.

“There is no excuse for not having a restaurant facility in that building for this season. Next season is not good enough. It should have been done this season,” said Higgins, D-Buffalo, a leading waterfront proponent.

The Buffalo News reported Wednesday that Jason Davidson, who owns the Waterline Cafe at Waterfront Village Center and coowns Fables at the Central Library, was going to team up with Michael Shatzel, owner of Blue Monk, Cole’s and Brennan’s Bowery Bar & Restaurant, to open a restaurant by the July 1 target date in the Naval Park. Erie Canal Harbor Development Corp. offered to spend $200,000 to get the building ready.

Mayor Byron W. Brown complained that the Naval Park, which leases the building from the city, failed to consult him first, and he put the brakes on the project before it could advance.

There have been significant advances at Erie Canal Harbor this summer, and the public has continually listed a quality dining experience as among its top priorities.

Higgins suggested that the inability to get the restaurant open was a failure of leadership.

“I don’t care about the bureaucracy; I care about outcomes,” he said. “There is no good reason why people of good will can’t come to

some kind of consensus about getting an operator in there who can offer something valuable to the public, and then figuring out all the other issues that need to be worked out later on.”

“There has to be a will to do the right thing. It’s just very disappointing, very, very disappointing,” he added.

The mayor said the issue was one of dollars and cents.

He said the city was looking after the interests of taxpayers by trying to work out a formula for future revenues from the Naval Park, which pays no rent and has an annual utility bill that the city pays and that the mayor estimated at between “$140,000 and $200,000.”

“What we asked for, essentially, is some sharing in net proceeds,” Brown said. “That means when we get to a point in net profitability, the city believes that it should share in those profits. That’s what we’re asking for.”

He added, “While I said in concept I love the restaurant idea and would like to see it happen, at the end of the day the tenant has to negotiate with the owner.”

The mayor said the Naval Park had yet to respond in writing to a June 20 letter from the city.

Col. Patrick Cunningham, the Naval Park’s executive director, said a response is forthcoming, but he added that the city was proposing to renegotiate the lease with terms unfavorable to the cash-strapped park.

So I have Posted These and a former article To Facebook cause I find this interesting and here is my take....
1. Brown Did the right thing I can't believe that I agree with him on this but I do... See they tried to make a deal with the person renting the building not the owner of that building....

2. Maybe it is Just me but the Naval Park is kinda small would a restaurant be a good fit.... Maybe there is room in that building ....

3. Do you really want to bring people into that building who are there just to eat and not pay to see the stuff inside?

4. Now that the Square has moved down to the Waterfront do you really want a place to eat right across that bridge? Reason I say this is if the place is any good they will eat there... Now that T.A.T.S people claim that you going there and eating and drinking is what keeps the concerts free.... Now if this is true wouldn't that also be what keeps the cheap shows cheap as well....

4a. So if there is some band who's music you like instead of paying what ever the high price of food is why not just go to a sit down place and listen to the music for free?

The Hatch and Formally Shanghai Reds... Granted it would be great to have a place that isn't as far down as them... But the news is acting like no one at this end of the Marina would walk down there Is this true? Or would people.... When pressed for time I agree they wouldn't.... But the next question I have to ask is would this new place hurt the Hatch's business ? Maybe a Little.....

5. A couple years ago when there was that pond hockey thing they opened up the parking lots and had it there since the ice was to thin or to soft or something and they decided to keep the marina open all winter long.... Has it anyone come up with a way to use it really during the winter... Yes looking at the ice might be fun but anything like ice skating any thing so that a place to eat would be an all year thing.... In this case if the place in Museum would be a good idea...

So I admit I have no Idea what Canada Day is but Happy Canada Day.....

Happy 4th Of July......

Happy Long Weekend.....

I may not even go see any fireworks this year I don't know the 4th on a Monday Kinda Blows..... It makes the Bisons game thing a sunday and there are shows I like on that night and treking home on sundays blow.... Same thing on monday on a sunday schedulle when I have to work the next day....
