Brother Sister Dance Party

Last night we went to the dance party at ohm where we saw Goth Trad from Japan. Its nice to have a dancing place a block away.

image

The music was pretty awesome. I danced most of the time we were there.


After wards we came home and had a brother/sister dance party in the dining room. I finally wore my "If you want my attention - Talk Baseball" shirt that (e:xandra) convinced me to buy in the summer. It was a little extra half shirty.
image

I accidentally texted this image to a number one off from (e:xandra)'s. They were so confused.

(e:terry) and robert fell asleep

Putting Shelves Together

I helped my Dad put some shelves together for my mom today. We actually managed to quite successfully get the parts together with no arguing.

While working my Dad told me about how his childhood best friend died last weekend. It was the first time I saw him really sad. I can't imagine what it is like to unexpectedly lose a best friend, especially one you knew your entire life. As he said they come by few and far between. I made me so sad hearing him be sad.

Matt and Kim at the Rochester Armory

Went to go see Matt and Kim and Passion Pitt at the Rochester Armory last night. I really love Matt and Kim. Seeing them play live was amazing. They are so dedicated to their performance.

As with every trip to Rochester, we ate at Dinosaur BBQ
image

But first, the Will Call line was insane. It was like an hour long and wrapped around the block.
image

Luckily we had paper tickets and the line was like 15 people long. Makes me wonder about Will Call in the future.
image

We stood around waiting for a bit after we got there. The crowd was massive.
image
image
image

There was a lot of crowd surfing during both shows. The best part of all was when Kim walked out onto the hands of the crowd and then danced on top of the crowd.

image

My video from their concert of the song "Now"


An their professional video


The rest of the pics are from Passion Pitt. The light set was good but I didn't get into the music as much.

Giving students iPads exposes them to threats

I can't believe we live in a world where people like Maureen Pratt from Williamsville are so afraid that children will use iPads for porn and "violent gaming" that they would question the use of mobile information technology in schools. Maybe even worse that our city's newspaper has nothing better to print than this response. She "could not remain silent" and neither can I?

image

Get with the future Maureen, people like you and the children you "protect" from mobile information access are going to be left behind in the information age. Its already happening, the slower they learn to harness information technology the further behind they will be as adults. Denying kids access to mobile internet technology because they may access porn or violent games is the modern equivalent of keeping kids illiterate because they might read about sex or violence.

Tablets, like phones are just computers you can take with you. They allow you to access the information when and where you need it instead of having to wait until you get home or to school to look it up at which times most things will simply slip off the radar. They represent an amazing opportunity to integrate the world's data stores into the fabric of our lives. I can't count how many times a day I reference valuable information on the internet to help me make informed purchases, define words, repair things, cook meals, program computers, appreciate art and music, and get me around from place to place. Not to mention the ability to tap into a vast network of people and their expertise at any moment.

You can't sanitize the internet. The beauty of it is that no one controls it. Its like the world itself. If it were all neatly controlled and government sanctioned the internet would have never happened. It would be like one big paid Disney commercial in America and other countries wouldn't even know something existed outside their borders.

Instead of just denying kids access it makes a lot more sense to teach them about what is and is not appropriate.

Gluten Free Pizza and Fried Artichoke Hearts


Robert and I cooked a gluten free pizza from a mix I bought at Big Lots last year and threw in the freezer. It was pretty tasty. It had a real nice exotic mix of fancy cheeses from Nickel City cheese on elmwood and the Lexington coop. I planned on just getting cheese at Nickel City but they don't carry mozzarella.

We also fried up some artichoke hearts. I never tried it before but it was easy and delicious. I dipped them in eggs, rolled them with garbonzo bean flour and deep fried them with peanut oil - yum.

Beard vs Mustache


I wanted to be able to curl my mustache again after seeing a real nice looking one the other day so I decided to start by separating the mustache from the beard and trimming a bit.
