On saturday is Live Aid 8. I admit I had forgotten about it. They want to send a message to The G8 summit and and trying to get ride of poverty. It seems like a good cause to me. I looked it up on AOL and they list the cities and who is performing. I know MTV and VH-1 will be showing the concert live. But what I don't know is who they will show and how all that is determined. MTV and VH-1 might have the same coverage I don't know. I also Know that 1077 the lake will be broadcasting it on the radio. I don't know who they will be playing or how they select it either. I'm not going to either one but there are a couple of good concert events on Saturday. There is one at the innerharbor Firstward Area. I don't know all the bands performing but I know Jackdaw is one of the bands and they are very good. Also The Juliet Dagger is playing in Niagara falls. I don't know where the outlet mall is but that is where they and a few other bands will be performing. I Don't know what I'm doing for the 4th but I hope everyone enjoys the holiday and the long weekend.

travel One thing that I do like to do is to travel places. There are a lot of places I would love to go but can't Afforid like europe or maybe a long cruise some place tropical. But I think by ones self is easier and less stressfull. I'm trying to find out about goi to toronto. I want to go on a friday so I only miss a day of work. My sister makes more money working on the weekends so she wants to go during the week. I have to find out when others at work are on Vacation. I don't want to take off two days when someone else is off. That isn't fair to the rest of the crew. There arn't that many of us, so it can reallly up the work load. All the coordinating drives me crazzy. I think that is one of the reasons I never call any one. Cause you kinda have to do the same thing well what do ya wana do, what day is best for you, ok what movie time and what movie and all that drives me crazzy sometimes. Maybe it is just the heat who knows. But I doubt it. All that give and take stuff is anoying.

Tech Support PhilosphyFirst of all This is going to be a rant so be warned, well it won't get to angery but it kinda touchs on another post of mine. I am having problems with secure sites. Aol has been very helpfull but nothing we have done has fixed the problem. So I figure lets try dell. Now we have tech support but it only covers the hardware. So if you want software coverage you have to pay another fee. But the thing is with dell you buy all the software from them. You go to there site and custmise the way you want your computer and what software you want. So I think it is bullshit. I think most tech support if it is for TV's or Cars is Bullshit, if something breaks in the first 3 years or goes bad. It should be free to get help. The buyer shouldn't be penalised because there is a bug, a glitch or something wasn't made right. I do understand that there are some wear and tare issues in terms of cars. But if something goes wrong you shouldn't have to pay for some guys time. You should be able to take your lemon of a ford back to ford and have them fix the problem. But it seems that there is this new attitude about stuff that if something goes wrong it is the consumers fault. I think the philosephy is all wrong. I understand you can't guarentee a TV for 10 years. But a 90 day waretntee is a joke. What if something goes wrong on day 100. But yet all these stores will sell you a longer guarentee. Bullshit you have insurance if it is defective or something goes wrong with it fix it. If it is something I cause and you find I caused it then yeah it is fare to charge me. What gets me even more pissed is some of these stores that have a stocking fee charge. Hello fuckers you have stock boys that is what they do they take it to your car for free but you return it you have to pay them, What the fuck is that. I'll tell ya what I'll put it back in the warehouse those guys have nothing else better to do anyways. They are paid to do a job let them do it and don't give them a bonus cause I returned something. I think everything that is sold should have a real and fair minimuim time that it should last with out problems. Price is a factor in that. If a VCR goes bad within 3 months maybe you get a replacement or something. My point is that manufactures and stores should be responsible for quality, don't shelp it off on the buyer. I hope this attitude changes.

Hot Weekend I admit it has been very hot lately. But to be honest I would rather have that then the rainy summers we sometimes have here. But it does tire you out at work and you need to keep filling up with water. I had A good time at The Artvoice street Fest on sunday. I saw and heard some good bands and saw some dancing. A lot of the bands I had never heard of. I enjoyed The Rabies they where good. Just before 7 i left and went down to the Gus Macker. They where having a few bands down there. I guess I missed the opening band. Yeah I skiped Government Mule for The Juliet Dagger. Fat apple performed and a band I realy wound up liking called Mincus or maybe Minkiss not sure how it is spelled. But who I went to see was The Juliet Dagger. They did a short set but it was good. It was a small crowd. I don't think to many people knew about it. I learned about it that morning on myspace. Plus they where on at the same time as something that was heavly advertised in fact a couple peoople either from PA or CAnada (simalur acents) asked how to get there and I told them. The band before the Juliet Dagger said they where going to see Gouvernment Mule and some people left the show, that was funny but kinda wrong. It was a weird vibe but a good vibe. I havn't downloaded my pictures yet but Maybe I will remember to upload them once I do.

Upset First of all this color I would call lemon or maybe lemon merange Pie, unsure but I like it it is kinda calming. But I'm still upset about a few things. Today I wake up and my ear is fealing unpluged but ringy still. So I go out to go up to the bank and enjoy the weather and maybe take out some cash and go buy Tea Party tickets. It seems as soon as a start walking and enjoying my self Bam there comes the ear pain. Then as I walk up Brynt some guy some guy is yelling to me like he knows me. I don't know this guy with braids and a dewrag. But I look over anyways and basicly I say I don't know him then he askes me if I smoke weed. What the fuck it isn't even 11am. If I want weed I will go find it don't come up to me. Don't get me wrong but I think it should be legal. One reason why is that if it where legal you would go and buy it from a store, not have people come up to you on the street when you have something else to do. With the ear ache I just went home. Maybe I'll go up to the bank later and find some good food on elmwood. the other reason I'm pissed is I can't get secure sites to work. Plus I get a pop up when I'm off line. My mother was in contact with AOL and they told her to do all sorts of things and nothing worked. Then we call Dell and guess what Customer Service only covers the hardware. If you want tech support for the software there is another completly differant charge. So We ddcide to do that and the guy gives me a couple things to try and I try them and find spyware and get rid of all the spyware, and guess what I still can't get secure sites. So I have to call them back again. Plus there is guarenty that they can solve the problem, they claim that most of them do get fixed. Maybe I did something wrong but I think I did what the guy said I wrote it all down. My mother tried to get netscape and and netzero and neither one of them will work. So I'm a little pissed right now. [bgcolor]#0000fb[/bgcolor]
