Pennsylvania, two thumb down

· · 🌡️ 78°F

This lack of being able to buy beer at some music venues and all stores really annoys me and I barely drink.

Last night at the chez-a-rena they sort of got around it with this scam. For $30 they has an all you can eat VIP pizza buffet, and in the VIP lounge they also gave away "free beer" but you had to pay $30 to get on. To me, and especially because we had just eaten, that seemed like a total rip off. Even @terry didn't want to spend the money. Plus the VIP space was as far from the band as possible.

I don't know how alcoholics survive here if not by stockpiling. However, in my own personal experience I've noticed alcoholics are not good stockpilers.

Google video chat and web calls

This is why I sided with google instead of apple. I just logged into my gmail on linux and was able to dial all the numbers I have in my address book on my phone and talk to them online free on my computer. It also has the entire history of all the calls from my phone. Plus I think this is the first time I have seen really good video chat on linux to mac. I guess skype also works but I don't have skype and they ripped me off on credits twice while this is just built into my gmail and fully integrates with my phone.

Here I am talking with myself between mac and linux.

I'd vote for Sam Hoyt

But unfortunately its not my district. We have no choice really because I'm sure Antoine will win again the primary and I refuse to affiliate with the party so I can't vote. It so weird that the primary becomes the actual election.

Strange midnight meals

I stayed late at work to complete a component for my new system. When I got home there was nothing much to eat so I tried to make something. I am of the opinion anything can be made tasty with with the additional of blueberries.
