The new not phone Nokia 810

Nokia is finally releasing the new not phone. I love the one I have but would really like the additional real keyboard. I am surprised they did not integrate cellular capability, although it is nice to have a device without a monthly service free.

This one also comes with GPS. It is really a great pocket linux device.

Eating Day

Well, yesterday I ate a bagel and some mushrooms and that was it for the day. Today I made up for it a bit with steak and eggs for breakfast, tortellini and Italian sausage for lunch and crab legs, artichokes for dinner, followed by home made apple crisp. For once everything was cooked at home accept breakfast. I wish I took pictures of anything else but I didn't charge my camera after breakfast and I haven't used my phone since Tuesday.

I had never eaten breakfast at Off The Wall. It was quite yummy. The potatoes were excellent.

Afterwards, we took (e:southernyankee) for a ride downtown to see the new waterfront developments and noticed this smoke stack right above the Hyatt was going crazy. At first, I thought there was a fire but then we saw it was coming out the stack.
image

There are still so many flowers and leaves at our house. I hope that it doesn't turn into another october surprise.

The Blackout Party

No, not a party I blacked out at, but rather a party in the dark with glowsticks. I had no idea this was happening. We just went to Marcellas on friday with (e:lilho), (e:southernyankee), (e:mike), (e:libertab), (e:terry), (e:jim) and (e:james)

It was like a rave nostalgia party. It was as much like being at a rave as going to a 70s party was like being at the disco in the 90s, however, I had a great time.

I stole these pictures from the Marcellas website (e:lilho) took a lot of pics but I didn't even bring my camera.

image

The drag queens got decked out.

Teen Vogue

(e:lilho) still reads teen vogue. I think it represents a much deeper problem.

image

Her horoscope in this month's issues says

With Mercury in your third house until the 11th you'll have a way with words this month. Use your pumped-up negotiating skills to score a few extra perks from your parents, like a later curfew or a bigger allowance.



This is so inappropriately appropriate for her.

I can't believe that she compares herself to the girls in teen vogue.

Although, I have to admit there is some eye candy.

Southernyankee and Lilho's Visit

Last night when I got home from work everyone was already drunk and then they got drunker. I had a bit to drink myself but not enough to be really drunk because I wanted to get stuff done today.

image

We played dress up with (e:lilho)'s clothes

This is still when it was only half crazy. I have been forbidden from posting any additional information.

The shoes that go bling

After our lunch break today, (e:southernyankee) needed to get some "buffalo" clothes at Marshall's today so I went with her and got some shoes. Well, not just any shoes, but shoes with metallic parts that go bling. I love them. 310 shoes They must be really rich to afford 310.com.

Its hard to tell but in disco lights it would look great.

I better catch up with my journal now

First, I appointed (e:jim,41585) as commander.

I have so much to say but every night when I go to blog, I instead program more on the new version of estrip. It looks essentially the same, but it is re-programmed from the ground up so that it is compatible with all the new code I am producing at Roswell - which means more updates and features for you guys.

Anyways, instead of boring you with those details I will share some pictures. I had lots of fun at the estrip dinner this evening. I hope everyone else did too! I know the waitress sure did, we gave her a great tip.

I loved this sign.

image

On Sunday, I went to the wedding of Kristina Kling and Rocky Costello at the Lancaster Country Club. I can't believe after 15 years they are finally getting married!

I actually got dress up!
image

(e:hodown) even put a flower in her hair

image

We had fun with the disposable camera from the table.
image

I don't understand this picture. I think Rocky and Kristina were sticking cake in each others face. I was rushing to get the picture and light got blurred but it looks like is that Kristina whipped out a laser sword.
image

I never thought I would see Rocky married
image

Here is the proof
image

it was nice to see (e:zizzler)
image

When I first met rocky 15 years ago he hated me, then we became pretty good friends. Now I actually see him more than Kristina.
image

After 100 years the bench met the garbage. It is the one thing no one took form our front lawn when put out.
image

Monday was fun, (e:james), (e:jim), (e:matthew), (e:terry) and I lounged around in the sun with basra

image

and ate pixie stix.

The Robber
We saw Avery Leeper (e:paul,32762) on Delaware by the jewish center - he is the guy who robbed our house last year. He told us the same sob story about having to get to his pregnant girlfriend in Medina or something. It amazes me when those crack heads don't have the creativity to change their story at all, even after a jail term. Come on, at least a slightly different story. I don't even have the pretension of being nice anymore and I hate when they try and pretend like they are some random street person I never saw before or that didn't already rob my house.

Calling 911
Then at night some guy collapsed outside our house. At first I wanted to go out but then I decided not to when I realized it was the drunken guy that is always wondering around on our street. Instead I watched for a minute when I noticed him rolling around in the oncoming traffic lane. He seemed to drunk to stand up. We decided to call 911 and believe it or not, in the heart of the city, the ambulance was there in 5 minutes flat. At that point he had wandered off down the street toward the park at North and Franklin.

The next morning I went and looked where he fell down and noticed this weird mix of stuff. Look at it. Later that day it was gone, he must have come back.

Lobster Omlettes and Sprinkers

I still can't get over how much fun I had dancing last night (e:jim,41532)
I thought my body would be broken today but honestly it felt good, much better than if I had gone on a programming marathon sitting on the couch.

We spent Sunday "preparing" for the wedding reception at 6PM. We started the morning out with a lobster omlette.

Nothing goes better with lobster claw than cleavage. period. I really don't think any man can argue that. I think lemon, butter cleavage might be the only thing to top that. (e:lilho) your sister has raised the bar, how are you going to up this one?!
image

It was so yummy looking, I was dying watching it cook.

image

image

Of course it needed a dollop of caviar. It was almost like the New York City on a million dollars a day meal, minus the Russian Belluga.

image

After that we spent the day running around in the sprinkler. This rocket sprinkler really rocks. It is fun the play in and entertaining to watch.
image
image
image
image
image

I no longer have a happy trail. It is more like a happy 4 lane highway. I guess, what do I expect I am Sicilian after all.

A saturday filled with caviar and champ

I picked (e:hodown) up from the airport and we headed on over to downtown Kenmore where she was going to get some jewelry repaired at Hoefferts jewelers.

image

Then we headed to premiere to buy some caviar and cheeses. The most expensive caviar they had was from an American Paddlefish (WIKIPEDIA - American_paddlefish) . It was $56.00/jar but when we brought it home it was covered in mold inside ;(

image

So we had to drive back, the woman we returned it to commented that the jar was warm. I was wondering if she was insinuating that we made it mold in the 15 minutes we had it in the car? Luckily, they switched it out for another bottle and their was no spitting required.

I learned a lot about caviar here I am curious why the Iranian Caviar is so freakin expensive

Caviar is good with creme cheese. (e:hodown) taught me to eat it like this.
image

(e:terry) likes to play on the scaffolds, will we ever return them.
image

Then we had champagne, which reminded me a lot of the housewarming months.
image

image

Even (e:cindy) drank a bit too much.
image

It was fun lounging around.
image

Then we hung out on the porch with the ants and the water rocket.
image



Ants love yogurt
image

(e:matthew) cleaned it up
image

For a little we had 2/3 of the ho clan on the porch. You guys probably don't see the he-ho Josh that much.

Bringing The Tortoise To Hell With Me

We did not attend the animal blessing this morning with Basra. I don't think (e:matthew) realized it was a church service and animal blessing. I mean I have no idea how the Episcopalians do it but in the Catholic church I kind of remember a whole mass with candles they put up on the animals necks at some point.
