Expensive Horn


Why does horn cost so much? Seems like it would be a plentiful commodity ina meat heavy society.

Shuck Raw Bar and Ale in Knoxville


(e:yesthatcasey) and I visited Shuck Raw Raw Bar and Ale in Knoxville for dinner tonight. It was one of the tastiest raw bars I've ever been to and you guys know just how often I eat raw seafood.

It was refreshing to go to a non asian themed raw bar. I started with 6 oysters on the half shell and moved onto softshell crab and Citrus tuna crudo.

I also helped that the server was so freakin hot but sadly finished his shift part way through our meal.

If they had one of these places in Buffalo I would be there every week.

Tennesee Camping

On the way here the weather was amazing. Once we got here it changed to cold, rainy and windy. We ended up still going hiking.

The ground is made up of light brown clay shale and tons of rocks. I can imagine trying to farm on itm. Nothing like the amazing fertile top soil we have back home.

Our cabin is in the middle of the forest at the top of a mountain. From the hiking trail you could see the larger cabins at the main resort. I tried to get a pic but the camera kept focusing on the trees.

I had no idea before but we are in the same town as Dolly Parton.

Buffalo Reuse Trip

So on the trip down to Buffalo Reuse to drop off the electronics I decided to stop inside and check out their new digs. (e:terry) wouldnt let me bring our old toilet because he said it was junk but they had 100s of them. The place has lots of great stuff and then a hodge podge of pure junk.

It seems like they are going to have to have some rules about what they take at some point or they will get overun with crap.

Like who is going to want the piece of broken plywood in the picture below?

Electric Dramatica


The foyer light went out. I took down the fixture thinking the problem was the connection was in the fixture itself. Sadly, once I got the fixture down and successfully tested it using electricity from elsewhere I realized the problem was not in the fixture itself but in the line.

So I got out the multimeter and tested the voltage. Instead of being the normal 120v it was measuring 28v :( so I followed it down to the switch box and checked the lines going into the switch. Same problem 28v. argh so the problem in the line coming to the box from the circuit breaker. At least I think it is.

Tommorow, I am having an electrician by to check it out. In the meantime no electricity in the foyer, porch or Alex's room.

Electronics Recycling In Buffalo - Even On Sunday!

Its even better than I thought (e:paul,56949) Buffalo Reuse is a Sunking drop off point and they are open on Sundays. This means I can drop off a lot of old home things I don't want and the electronics all at once. Not only that they are open on Sundays from 12 to 4. Yippie!

Dj Bad Boy Bill


Went to see Bad Boy Bill last night at s
Sinful with the guys. It was a great time. The crowd was an interesting blend of people from guidos to club kids and everything in between.

Sinful honestly has the best dance floor in the city. It becomes this amazing slipery butter floor. The lights and sound were also top notch.

I have enjoyed Bad Boy Bill every time I have seen him. To me the best part was the "If this don't move your booty, then your booty must be dead." remix.

He was one of originators in the Chicago house scene and it shows. Check out his wikipedia article His buildup is almost unmatched. I forgot how much I loved acid house before jungle took over everything.

Sometimes You Have To Sue


Sometimes "friends" steal $600 and act like just okay because, "sometimes you got to do what you got to do." ... which in those cases is sue them.

The court house has some nice art.

Refinancing in 2012

We refinanced our house which turned out quite well. We were able to get the mortgage interest way down to 3.5, keep the payment scheme and cash out quite a bit of money for things like a new bathroom which desperately needs to be done since it doesn't even have a floor in parts.

I can't believe that in 2012, the process of signing mortgage documents is still so paper intensive. It seems like such a waste. They have so many new papers since the last time too. The stack was about three inches high. We even had to sign a waiver that our house was not damaged by Hurricane Sandy. I mean, were any houses in Buffalo damaged by the hurricane? Maybe they should just make people in damage zones sign that.

Anyways, its over and I can hopefully 2013 will be a good year.
