Well there are many polls on Myspace and I assume face book also that I often don't do and some of them are questions. So I can't believe I'm doing this what Have I got myself into and will I even be able to come up with that many?

1. I hate the idea of taking a shower:But once in it I like it as long as possible as long as it is very Hot (no 10 min shower for me, yes I have been burned)

2. I love eating it is more about the pleasure of it then being hungry most of the time

3. I hate taking a dumb oh gross. Sometimes I wish they made a pill that had no waste and gave you all your calories and tasted like food that would be awesome

4. From my blog you would never know it but I'm shy or some form of something like that

5. I graduated from Canisius but still suck at spelling

6. In high school I played 3 sports Track, swimming and Cross Country

7. I love art and have it all over my walls but I'm messy and lazy so the floors and every place else is a mess

8. Strip clubs are awesome even though I never go

9. I think I might like porno more then I like real sex but not sure about that one

10. I have never really understood what it means to miss someone if you have them in your thoughts then how are they missed?

Um I have to make it past 10 this isn't going so good

11. I'm bi-costal (born in CA and live in NY)

12. I like art and have even pictured how to draw something in my mind but it all ways comes out looking like crap since I have no art skills

13. Can't cut a straight line with a scissors

14. I have liked multiple teams in every sport I like Except Lacrosse

15. I am happy with my body, but wish I was taller and wider and that every part of me was propotionatly the same

16. Not good at the dress up thing I need to be comfortable and love Hoodiies

17. I like to keep warm on heater vents (yes have been slightly burned but not to point of pain or any damage)

18. I think people should have a moral code and live by it, or at least try there best to follow them

19. When I first joined (e:strip) I didn't think it was a blogging site I thought it was like a site where all the elmwood stores where connected in some way that is what the name implied

20. I like blogging and am not sure why. Some blogs of mine are on multiple pages but I have no idea if anyone reads them on those other pages

ok so now it gets tough it is like when you climb a mountain from what I have heard that you can see the top and it is close and you can't move or really breath so you just sit there. But I will finish and if I get a spurt of thoughts maybe add some more.

21. I love Tattoos and would love to get one, but I don't think that is the kind of pain I could take plus needles kinda scare me a bit.....

22. My user name is Metalpeter and it is on any site where I can use it and the term has many different meanings. When I was first online I thought maybe about using something else since using something that has a sexual meaning as one of the meanings might not be the best. But then someone I talked on line with liked Peter Steele from Type O Negative so I kept it.

23. I don't know if they are still up but there are more revealing shots then my costume on line from a long time ago, and some private ones someplace else, but I'm not saying where.

24. I like Action movies and shows. But what I like more is to people's stories and I think that is why I like TV so much and like all kinds of different shows and reality TV and even things like the Tattoo shows. For people who read I think the thing about the stories is also true just the media is different.

Oh boy 25 is tough what do I say and is there any bonuses I can add?

25. As anyone who has seen my blog can tell I like to take pictures for fun but don't know what photo documenting is called when you use a digital camera and aren't a pro.


I have no idea what else to write or if I even did this right or said the things I was supposed to. Have a great weekend everyone and for you sports fans hope you enjoy the Super Bowl, oh wait they might sue me so the bowl that is super. Yes that brand name is pretty costly so hope everyone has a great time and hope to see some of you at (e:drew)'s party.

Well I got the survey from (e:ladycroft)'s Journal [inlink]ladycroft,154[/inlink] (look below for answers). On a quick side note in today's paper in the first sunday section there articles about dating that I didn't get to read. I did find a very interesting article about some one I know and went to School with named Aaron Bartley. The term for Aaron I guess would be a community activist. Hopefully I will be able to put the article up it will take some time for me to figure out how since I can't find it on line but I have an idea. Ok here is the survey.

Reading something Ladycroft wrote got me thinking. I have slept in a bed that was to big for just me, on couches, the floor, sleeping bags, recliners, a footon, sleeper sofas, the bus, cars, arm chairs, matress (no bed) and I tried a hammock but i didn't work for me. I was planning to post some pictures from around where I live but I'm short on time so that will be my next post. Then ladycrofts post got me thinking. So I decided to start a poll or survey. I used to sleep in a recliner. that was amazing comfortable belive it or not but now I sleep on a futon. The matress is super thick and soft I find it more comfortable then a bed. So for anyone who feals like responding go ahead. I'm not sure where my favorite place to sleep is I think a verry comfortable couch.

Where do you sleep and where is your favorite place to sleep?
a. couch
b. Recliner
c. Bed
d. soft rug
e. wood floor
f. Matress
g. Strangers bed
H. Popason
i. futon
J. Hammock
k. sleeping bag
L. Big Arm chair
M. or other

First of all I don’t know how often I’m going to do this but the idea came to be that when I express an opinion that I could make it into a poll. I know it isn’t as fun as a fire pole but oh well. Anyone who wants to or feels like it can answer in the comments section. I will not keep stats on the results. .

I know there are some parts of Grant street that are nice. For example Tops Plaza and the Post Office. There are a couple places on forest. To bad there isn’t a good restaurant where Plate-oh was. But that got me thinking about Elmwood sprawl or growth. I grew up on grant and near grant and grant is a poor neighborhood , not all of it but some of it. Parkdale I know used to be a crazy street with lots of drug activity. I know someone who bought a house that used to be a drug house near the post office. The way Richmond is zoned you can’t have any businesses on it. But that doesn’t mean that you can’t have some businesses that spring up on the side streets and main streets like Forest, Delevan, and Utica. I wonder if the fortunes of Elmwood will spread to Grant and help it out. I know there are some good businesses there like Guericios and Frontier and sandbor sports. But It would be nice to see it become an Elmwood Jr. I wish it would but I don’t think it will. What do you guys think? (I say C)

A)    Grant is fine how it is
B)    Grant will become a better neighborhood on its own
C)    Elmwood will expand but not as far as Grant
D)    The Elmwood neighborhood will branch out to Grant
E)    Buff State will buy houses and rent to students helping grant
F)    Homeowners wanting to be near Elmwood will push out drugs
G)    Other (what ever you think will happen)
