Some pictures from back in the day
Jessica Ho (e:hodown) - Yearbook Quote: Some people think happiness is friends and love. I just want power and money.
Paul Visco - Yearbook Quote: To flash to the Real Intraworld Push: hard to the other side.
My mother has turned my old room into a craft/storage extravaganza.

Buffalo Transportation
(e:terry) is lucky that there is a bus because otherwise he would be really stuck with his work being so fara way. (e:lilho) on the other hand is not so lucky. I cannot believe there is no public transportation to the airport during all flight hours. The first bus goes at 6:18am which is late. When I tried to plan the trip using the NFTA public transport planner it gave me the following response. I think it meant the not only the trip to the airport but the broader trip to NYC.

Rave History
The interviewer is asking Xotec about the scene before him. Does anyone else remember those parties at the Ellen Terry Theatre. Those raves were so crazy. maybe it was just my first time being messed up but it changed my life for a lot of years. That theatre was like Showplace but cooler. Unfortunately, like showplace it has the nasty slanted floor. That made dancing way more dangerous.
(e:hodown) remember the stilt people? Who is Toni Billoni, the name sounds so familiar?
XOTEC: Non existent! (Other than two events Toni Billoni did in the early 1990s). Before I met the rest of the Tribe I was heavily involved in producing the first series of raves in the WNY area, at the old Ellen Terry Theatre on Grant and Potomac [now torn down], the Masten St Armory, the infamous TCI building [also torn down], etc. Anyway, it was at the first party at the Ellen Terry that I met Marcos, Christ and God and this whole sick twisted ride began, from hooking up at my first raves to playing together Friday nights at Asbury Alley [now Route 66, but historically quite seminal in terms of the development of WNY's underground electronic dance music roots]. We actually began throwing events as a collective in May a party in the basement of the Lafayette Hotel. Talk about underground! From then on we worked together to bring WNY some of the most twisted, unique events around.

Kuni's is closing
I suppose something will be able to fill the spot as it is a prime elmwood location.
I can understand why he would want to take a break. That restaurant was always full and he definately put his all into it. Being that committed to a project can really drain you over time. Plus he must have made enough money to retire for a while.

Last day of work - Server Maximus
The server is getting better everyday. I appologize for this not being the most interesting topic but I promise it will be the coolest result. I have learned so much more about server admin this last week. Now I am really getting to be a pro at it. Well not exactly, but I am much more confident in being able to make it do whatever I want and I love CentOS.
One of the lastest upgrades now allows me to convert regular video to flash .flv video files using the command prompt - which means php can do it - making video accessible to more users via the flash player. That in addition to having extra space will allow us to incorporate a lot more video into the site.

Making of a Server
Well, even if I don't like Ruby on Rails enopugh to switch yet, I have to say setup takes about a 5 minutes which sure as hell beats setting up PHP the way I want it. It could be because I have very customized desires for PHP while I have no ideas what I want form Ruby yet. Either way it was fast and easy. The next part I am working on is the mail server. That is my least favorite part but I guess in the end, one day to set up a really rad server is worth it.

Visit to the Suburbs
I am so sick of not being able to take normal pics with the oh so fancy nokia 7710. i cannot belive the camera is broken as the camera was the selling point for me. I have been redued from 1.3MP to 300pixels as only the preview of the image looks normal.
Amvets had this scary doll reaching up at me. I felt bad for her.
We ate at fuddruckers. I guess I have made a full 360 since the days (e:hodown) and I locked their doors with superglue during a vegan terrorism raid.
They had all these local history images.
I also got to eat ostrich. It really does taste just like beef. Suburban food is really crappy though, at east in comparison to something like Jimmy Macs.
The superflea had so much strange crap. Stuff I couldn't even imagine befoe like this 14k and diamond jesus. It seems so anti-jesus to me.
(e:terry) contemplates his food at fuddruckers.

Hello Motorola
I have decided that I am done with the piece of crap nokia 7710 forever. It had such potential. I know that I bought a phone not made in the USA but it is ridiculous that the camera stopped working [inlink]paul,3983[/inlink] only 3 months after i bought the $400 phone. I just want to get the camera fixed. I understand that it is not under warranty. I am willin got pay to have it fixed. What is more ridiculous is that they sent this totally insane email as my reponse to a repair request.
My favorite part about this email is the accented e in America at the closing.

At that point (e:mike) had already given up and gone home. We decided that we would go out anyways. I really wanted to take a break from server admin crap and I thought danicng would provide suitable exercise.
[size=m]Why they invented child locks[/size]
About 5 minutes into the trip down mainstreet citybound (e:lilho) says, "I need to puke." She unrolls the window and I thought she was just going to pull an (e:southernyankee) but instead she just opens the door and just kind of rolls out head first while the car was moving down mainstreet. Mind you she was not unconscious or anything. We were carrying on a conversation right before this.
Luckily we were turning into a parking lot but we were going about 10 miles per hour. Unfortunately, she did lose her purse and her ID in the incident. Well, at least she thinks so. Might put a crimp on her trip to NYC.
I have never had anyone do that. I yelled stop and tried to grab her but it was too late she just ejected like a pilot in a plane going down. Thank god she didn't get ran over. I mean it could have been a really traggic situation. I am going to refer to it as NTS, "Near Traggic Situation" (Visco, 2005).
Read the same story from (e:terry)'s perspective [inlink]terry,451[/inlink]
We never made it to see Darren Jay, by the time we got there are around 3:15am they were still charging $10, so we left.
