Shopping At Wegman's

They only have one little truffle left. At $999/lb I can understand why. I don't get why they have them at Wegman's. Like I could see why they would have it at premier or somewhere like that, but in the regular produce section at Wegman's is kind of redic. Its looks like a little poop in the rice.

image

What is it with the New Crop thats so good? Was the old crop bad? Isn't it often a new crop? Maybe it just didn't translate very well.

image

Check out this huge antennae on this car. What kind of signal are they trying to pull in?

The new oak dinning room table

The new dining 8 foot by 4ft solid oak room table came today. It looks nice although I think the chairs are a little to "cottage, crafty, country" for my taste. It matches the shiny, stupid oak floors. Now if only I was allowed to walk on the floor and if I had friends to eat at it with - it would be awesome. Right now it is just another fucking annoying, functionless object on display. I am tired of those kind things.

image

We bought it at Consignment Furniture on Sheridan. They are over at 2217 Sheridan Drive. Buffalo, NY 14223. (716) 874-1979.

Considering the cost of a solid oak dining room table that size we got a super duper bargain at $299.00. Thats right not $2000.00 but $299.00. Some lady was getting divorced and just wanted to get rid of it. The delivery guy said the price was a mistake and we were really lucky. I think it is the first piece of non broken furniture we have besides the new couch I got for (e:matthew) for his birthday - that he hates.

Working on the yard

Now that we did so much inside the house, it is time to start working more outside of the house. Today we decided to remove a major yard debris pile, clean out the garage and remove some broken concrete.

But first what the hell does this sign mean at the church next door? Drew, any ideas?
image

The old turtle skeleton is getting cooler and cooler over time. It was the previous owners pet we found dead in the basement when we bought the house.
image

Parts of the garage got moldy again. We really need to make some sort of ventilation for it. It is a solid brick/concrete box with a water problem. This wooden kids slide got so moldy it was furry.
image

Removing the concrete was a pain in the ass because underneath it was million brick parts that had to be pulled out in order to plant grass.

image

I am not sure what we are going to do with all the concrete and bricks we have pulled out of the dirt in the yard. Most of them are from a house that stood here before ours, thinks (e:matthew).
image
image

image

Then there was this pile of yard debris from last year.

image

And (e:terry) spent the whole day breaking it down. It looks so much better now. He also used some of the broken concrete to build up our compost bin which produced a lot of compost from last year that he sprinkled around the garden today.

image

Unfortunately, we missed big garbage day, which was this morning. I have so much debris again form the deconstruction of the bathroom. Also, I have a lot of solid copper pipes. Anyone know where i can sell the copper at. I always hear about people stealing copper but k=now that i have my own - I have no idea where you would "unload" it.

Kimya Dawson In Buffalo Again

It was fun to see Kimya Dawson on Thursday night at the Tralf. It wasn't quite the same as the other two times we saw her at Mohawk Place. My favorite time was when we got to talk to her (e:paul,30882) and we got tee-shirts that she drew for us. Mine had a tortoise on it.

This time the line was long.
image

She played a great set. It was kind of annoying that you could hear and feel the Marcellas "Boom, boom, boom" the whole time.

image

She was the same goodness as always but played a little faster than I remembered.
[flv]0408/KimyaInBuffalo0413.flv[/flv]

It was weird that most of the people in the audience were there because if the Juno movie. It reminded me of the difference between seeing Tugboat Annie play in our friends church basement and then seeing them at a big concert later.

One guy yelled out something like, I liked you before Juno and she kind of ripped him apart till the point he left. I thought that was kind of awkward but he was really being a jerk. He also kept making fun of Buffalo as he was from Seattle or something.

I still love her and her music. She has a baby now.

They have food and tables at the Tralf which is pretty cool.

image

I made (e:terry) wear his little birdy.
image

the best part was not being IDed and not because the guy thought I was too old to get a drinking bracelet, but because he thought I was TOO YOUNG to get one. He wouldn't even believe my ID at first. (e:mike), my seven year younger brother did get proofed. That was terrific.

A morning on the west side

The other day we were over at our rental property fixing a interior light that had a broken switch.

When I noticed the Fargo mansion around the corner. Its really quite pretty.

image

They were working on the roof that morning.
image

Afterwords, we went on down to the neighborhood that is going to be destroyed for the stupid peace bridge. I can't even imagine if that was my house. Many of them are the same calibur or even nicer. I wish they could just move them into the empty plots on Linwood.
image

image

I just feel so bad for them. On the one street they had a million "Don't truck up my neighborhood signs."

Radiation Poison Be Gone

How cool is this. Someone at Roswell invented a drug that reduces damage to healthy cells that are exposed to radiation. Sadly, I could not find the information on the roswellpark.org homepage so here it as at medheadlines.com

Radiation damage is one of the most frightening aspects of catastrophic nuclear events but, more often, cancer patients suffer the gut-wrenching side effects of the radiation that is administered in an effort to kill the tumor and save the life. In what one scientist describes as his "eureka moment," a new drug was envisioned that has turned into a very viable potential weapon in the fights against both cancer and nuclear emergency.

Drug protects from radiation damageAndrei Gudkov, affiliated with the Roswell Park Cancer Institute, has developed CBLB502, the code name for his new drug that protects healthy cells from the damage caused by radiation even while killing off the cancerous cells. The eureka moment came when he got the idea to put one of cancer's own sneaky little tricks to work against it.

Random Pics and The Church of Ani

A co-worker of mine just figured out that I am gay. It took him only 2 years to figure it out. I thought I was gayer than that, lol.

Here are some random pics of stuff from my camera.

There are all these holes in the backyard. What are they from.
image

image

We gave Basra a bath
image

For such a hhuge freakin house we didn't have that high of a gas bill considering it was for 4 people.
image

image

I was at the Boulevard Mall the other day trying to escape the floor refinishing fumes at home when I saw this car tire with a license plate jammed into it.

image

Then I found this squirrel paw? on the street. I wonder what happend to the rest of it.
image

Last thursday we went to go see the Libera at the Church of Ani on Deleware. They sang really good but I got very uncomfortable in the wooden fold out seats. I would probably never go back there for another show if it meant sitting on those chairs for an extended period of time.

image

image

I saw these converse at the mall and thought of (e:twisted).
image

At Michael's they sell customizeable paddles. Who buys these, fraternities?

image

There is a page in the Elmwood Village called the Elmwood Villager. I never saw it before. The term villager sounds so agrarian and poor.
image

We went to cheektowaga on vacation.
image

It actually beat our vacation on Deleware with the view of Walgreens.

So Many Years Ago

I recorded this from the radio so many years ago. It is so obviously a lie now. Bush clearly knows exactly why the people were saying it.

Niagara Gorge and Topless Terr(i/y)s

We went hiking at Niagara Gorge on Sunday. It was s o nice to get outside in a teeshirt and run around. Here it is from the top, we hiked down to the bottom.
image

It was cool to touch the ice when you are all hot and sweaty from hiking in the sun. If only it felt like that in the winter.
image

Apparently, they are having some issue with New Zealand Mud Snails
image

We were with a guy who had a broken arm and walked with a cane. I don't know who thought it was a good idea to take him on a frozen cliff path hike. I guess he survived so it was good.

image

The water was so pretty.
image

Check out the waves
image

We finally got down to the shore
image

At one point we found the last pieces of ice and chucked them in the water to take out our winter aggression.

(e:terry) caught this one right out of the water. Yes, this is how people get swept away and die.

::Download Flash Video::


Then the ice boom broke or something because all of a sudden there were a million icebergs, some of which were a good 10 feet long.

image

::Download Flash Video::



Once we sat own in the sun, off came Terri's top. She is the most unbashful woman I ever met, I think it is cool that she exercises her right to be topless. The visitor center viewing area about 200 feet above quickly field with dude's watching her from above. It wasn't remove enough for me to take anything off - next time we will have to go to Zoar Valley, lol.
image

This is Dave's cousin Pat.
image

On the way back up, the other topless terry was playing Karate Kid.
image

Here are Dave and Otsi.
image

And (e:matthew), (e:terry) and I
image

I took this picture for (e:jacob). It is the new indian casino. I thought the design was pretty cool and he would like it.
image

On the way home I took some pics of the river overlooking Grand Island. It looked so beuatiful. Too bad it is so disgustingly polluted. I remember working at this factory on that road for a day (as a temp computer specialist) where their primary business was burning formaldehyde to make other chemicals. The woman I worked with was covered in growths and their was a yellow line on the floor that separated the clerical staff from the workers that had protective gear on. I quit after one day despite the secretary telling me that an air purifier would help make it safe.

image

Then there is the oil refineries at River Road. They smell so freaking bad. That whole area should be moved somewhere more remote and away from the water.
