Sparatic or lots

· · 🌡️ 85°F

First of all I like the Newport theme I Assume it is New Port RI and Not New Port News, VA I think there is a newport in CA also .

For those of you who like sports on Thursday the Sumer X games start.

But what I really want to know is why does TV work this way. Hey I have a fealing @mrmike won't even know but here goes. Why is it that sometimes there is absolutely nothing good on TV. Then there are 3 or 4 shows I want to see all on at the same time. That used to happen on sunday nights all the time. Now it is tuesday you have 30 days, ECW, Rescue me, and miami ink. Luckly Rescue me is on back to back so I can watch it after ECW. But I will most likely tape the other two shows hopefully. But this seems to happen often that there is either nothing good on or a bunch of things, maybe it is just me or that I have a shit load of chanels or maybe I just need a life.

inked Miami

Here are a few Pictures of Kat and a few Tattoo pics. First of all I'm sorry that I didn't mention earlier that I have been watching new episoded of Inked (Tattoo shop in the palms in vegas). Then last week I saw Miami Ink is new also (TLC). I really like both shows they are both about Tattoo shops but are so differant then each other still. Well since I'm talking about reallity shows there are 2 others I might as well write about. On Tuesday nights There is a cool show called Rockstar Supernova. Supernova is a what they refer to as a super band that is when stars from other bands get togather but they don't have a lead singer. Everybody performs but unlike Idol they have a real band playing behind them and if they want they can play guitar and sing. There have been some great performances. I know it isn't original material but some of the performances have seemed like it the way a song has been alterted. Viewers of the show watch and vote. Unlike those idol shows the next day the 3 people with the lowest amounts of votes wind up performing the next day for supernova and they pick who gets the axe. Unlike that idol show it is verry positive and the constents get advice or construtive cristicism it isn't you fuckin blow and will never make it like old simon. I think the show has a great energy. The only problem is it is on at the same time as last comic standing. Some of the comedy is verry good. Yeah I know I'm a little off topic but back to my point Kat is so hot, her lucky man. Oh yeah plus she is so amazingly talented. Oh the pics I got off a web search not Miami Inks site. Yeah I admit I am to much of a pussy to get a tattoo but I do really like good ones. Sometimes I wonder if the stories about the tattoos are made up. The reason being is that they all seem to have meaning that they show. So if someone wants to get a tattoo and get on tv they may make up a story. I think most of them are real. I would like to see an actual study if they help people heal. I would think a memorial tattoo might not really be the best thing. Yes it is a way to remember that person but I would think each time you see it on you it brings back the pain, but not sure. I'm guessing for somepeople it really is a big help.

Kingdom of

· · 🌡️ 74°F

Last Night I watched a verry violant but verry good movie called "Kingdom of Heaven". It did have a good storyline also. It was about war over jurulsehem (how ever it is spelled). With out giving to much away originally anyone could pray there and muslums or jews or christians who attacked anyone else would be hung. It is to bad the middle east lost that and isn't like that anymore. Part of the movie has the theme that everbodies religion kinda overlaps and that jews pray over muslems and vice versa. I just think that it is so sad that today everybody is killing each other over religion and over the holy land, when that isn't what realigon is supposed to be about. If you like period pieces then you will like it, If you like orlando bloom you will like it, if you like realigous philospical movies you will like it, if you like violant night movies you will like it.

I forget who posted about it maybe @terry I watched a new reality series called "Who Wants to Be a Superhero?" On Sci-fi it was interesting and I will watch more of it. The winner gets there own comic book. I saw an add that there is also a Dark Horse Comics tie in to the series but I didn't completely understand the add.

I may watch a movie or two today not really sure what I'm doing. Maybe go up to New World and buy a few CDs, not sure but I feal like doing something not sure what though.

Censorship

· · 🌡️ 55°F

First of all I understand that there are certain things you can't show on tv. For example I was fliping one night and there was this show Called Mile High it was on BBC America and there was these two guys and a naked chick in a steam room and they stard or coverd her nipples as an example that I understand. But what I don't like is when content or subject matter is edited out. Appartently that is what "Cartoon Wars" the two South Park Episodes where about. The issue was showing Muhamid as a cartoon chacarter. The Basic story line was that Family guy was going to have Him shown. In the end it turns out that Family Guy episode is aired and that they will show Mumhamid. There is a speach in there by Kyle about how you have to be able to make fun of everything and if you can't thank you shouldn't make fun of anything. As South Park is about to show Mumhamid the Screen goes black and there is a Message that Comedy Central wouldn't let them show it and it is explained right in the episode. I think it is great that they make jokes about how people are out hidding there head in the sand and how people are affrid riots will break out and everyone is going to die. Then they bash there own network for being the same way. I think Comedy Central should be ashemed. It is ok to Bash the Scincetologists but not the Muslums cause there might be a riot or they may get hate mail. I think it is bad enough that the we have less and less freedom in this country every day. But to compound that by not showing certain subject matter on TV shows is horrid. I think it is good for TV shows to have issues of race, politics and all kinds of issues. Yes it is only a TV show. But when people talk about that show with each other then those isssues are mentioned. Don't get me wrong I don't think a show should be all issues. A good Example of that was Ellen. It was a funny show. They Teased her coming out of the Closet on the show for a good long time and that was funny. But once she came out then that became the entire jist of the show and it lost how funny it was. On another note I had a good easter and watched most of the sabres game, great game. I hope everyone had a great weekend.

South Park Vs. Family Guy

· · 🌡️ 43°F

First of all if any one likes South Park and missed this weeks then you may not want to read my post. I got to watch South Park it was an interesting one. Basicly they bashed the Muslums getting mad over Cartoons of Alah and bashed Fox's Family Guy. Fox Edited out Aliajah and they showed Rioters and translated some guy talking in arbic that had nothing to do with the profit but basicly said Family Guy isn't funny and about how the Jokes have nothing to do with the story line, it was interesting and in some ways they where right on. I do like Family guy and think it is funny show. This episode is to be Continued untill next week. I don't think they will run a Terrance and Philip show like they did when they where supposed to be revealing Cartmen's Father, from what I understand that got a lot of fans Pissed but we shall see what Happens next week. I like shows that bash everybody and are funny and fun to watch. Watching both South Park and family Guy is a good way to Relax. I wonder if Family Guy will try to get back at South Park or if they started it first. I know on Clerks The Animated Series DVD Family Guy is Called an Unfunny Show by Kevin Smith wich surprised me, I think there is some Beef that he isn't talking about or maybe I missed something. On an unrelated note hopefull The sabres win Tonight and the Bandits win on Saturday.

Rememberance

· · 🌡️ 36°F

First of all I'm not really sure I should post what I'm about to say it is kinda to personal for a blog, but maybe it isn't to personal but I feal like venting a little bit. I maybe should have made the topic Death since That is what I will be writing about but two TV shows have got me thinking about it but I will also talk about the shows and what is going on outside of them.


First of all I have read a few articles on South Park on usatoday's web site. Basicly Isaic Hayes who voices and sings as Chef left the show. He basicly said that the show had gone to far and was hatefull. Matt and Trey Basicly said he had no problems with bashing all kinds of people and Religion Untill we attacked his religion Scincetology. They did bash the hell out of it in The Closet episode last season. They also bashed some famous members of it like Tom Cruise and a few others. But I thought it was funny. This weeks New Episode was the writering out of Chefs Character (well of course it wasn't that simple) Bur I don't want to give anything away for those who may want to still see it. But they did leave it open in a way that he could be brought back. Not that Hayes would ever do the voice. But that was the First show to deal With death.

The Second Show I watched that dealt with death and Remeberance was The L word. {this is a spolier so if you don't want to know what Happened skip ahead} There was a chachater Named Dana Fairbanks who is a gay Pro Tennis Player. She died and this week they where having a Funeral with ashes at a church and the minister said that she would have found a man and had a family if she lived longer, so one of the friends yelled out she was gay then they leave and latter they steal the ashes and go drive up to this waterfall and and have there own memorial for her. I admit some of it was hard to watch (yeah I'm a pussy some times) but it was a verry powerfull episode. There where some flashbacks to how people meet luckly that didn't lead to any weird dreams.

But what that did get me thinking about is how would I be remembered. I think my family, My Friends and My Coworkers and My E:strip friends would all view and remember me differantly. I admit that I don't want any body to miss me or be in pain or cry when I'm gone. That is one of the subconcous reasons why I often don't get to close to people, yeah I'm Fucked up. I mostlikey need some couseling. It has always kinda bothered me how at Wakes people who are there often don't talk about the dead person in the casket they talk to each other about what is going on in there lives and they are happy. Grantened I don't want people to be in pain and crying and frialing around like a fish out of water but that person is dead they should be the attention and you should be talking about them and things you remember not what is going on in your life. I guess that is how people deal with the death of a family member. I wish I could remember the exact quote but I heard once that dying isn't tough on the dead it is tough on the ones they leave behind, and that does make sense, sord of. Not really sure where I'm going with this post exactly. But I do think that is is important to remember people who have died and to grieve and that everyone does that differantly. I think that is one reason why some people want to be famous so that there name will be in lights and they will be remembered. I had another point but I lost it in hear somewhare today my mind was really racing last night and I had a lot of thoughts sometimes it is tough to get those out in the way you think them especailly hours after you have those thoughts.


Awards

Not sure How I didn't Know the Grammy Awards where on until today. So I will tape Bones. It is really a good show. House was good last night. I taped but havn't watched to episodes of the seceret life of women. The one episode looks really good. I missed Miami Ink. I like the show because it is a reality show about a Tattoo shop but you also get to see Tattos people get and why.

red sun

· · 🌡️ 23°F

Since I'm a walker and a buser and it was a holiday today I got to sleep in a little. It was nice to get an extra hour in the morning. As I got to work the sunrise was really cool. There was lots of red it was really cool looking. 24 was amazing last night and the rest of the premeire is on tonight. I don't want to say to much for those that tivo'd it or taped it Last night after 24 I switched over to showtime and caught most of the L word. Before they repeated the episode there was an add for Family Business. They didn't mention a specfic date but that the new season is coming soon. I then watched what I missed and the entire show made sense. I wish I wouldn't have taken my camara out of my coat last night I could have had some great pictures this morning possibley. Tonight wrestling and the sabres are also on so after 24 I will watch wrestling and listen to the game and check it out on commercals hopefully I stay awake for all of it.

hockey NY Rollergirls tats

· · 🌡️ 35°F

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.

Marathons

· · 🌡️ 34°F

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.
