Ying Yang
Category: estrip
I like that in the chat when you send something and it is thinking you get a spinning Ying Yang. I like that symbol. I forget the exact meaning of it but know the basics. That Male has a little female, Female has a little male, Evil has a little good, good has a little evil. It is about balance and that two opposites have a little bit of there opposite in them. It is part of eastern thought and confusionism from what I remeber. The ying yang is used in a few adds. My favorite Soda/ Pop Pepsi uses its own version of the Ying Yang and a Cigeratte company might be Salem uses it also. There might be some other companies that I don't know about that use it also. I have to admit I also like all the therme choices. I don't have a favorite really. I think the Amerika theme was the best but maybe it was because it said made in china I found that funny.[bgcolor]#eefff7[/bgcolor]

Marine Drive
In the artvoice or as (e:jason) would call it one of the shit rags I read an interesting story about the marine drive apartments as asbestos. I admit i didn't get it all but it was still interesting.

I read a story in the paper that I wanted to write about but kinda blanked on the facts, I think it was in todays papper. There may have been to articles. But the one I remember was about the Casino possibly beeing bulit in downtown. First of all I Didn' get a chance to read about the anti casino people meeting with canidates for mayor. The article had to do with eminentant domain and how often people who go to Casinos don't spend money on places out side of the casino. I think that with good promoting that wouldn't be true. I know some casino's have there own entertainment. But I think that if some Bars and businesses that warn't in the casino advertised then people might go to them. I think you could have good sports and casino packages and or promotions. It would be nice for a casino to be in downtown Buffalo because it would bring more people to the city and maybe some people from the Buffalo suburbs into. Part of the article did mention that they need to be creative and maybe have slots on chip strip. I think a cool Idea depending on where the casino winds up being is a Buffalo shuttle service from some of the bars to the casino and from HSBC arena to the casino. That would also encourage people from the casino to go to other things in Buffalo. I'm not a gambler but If I where to go to Vegas or the Fallsview resort casino. I wouldn't want to only gamble. What if I lost all my money before it was time to sleep. I know there are a few tours of Buffalo it would be cool if they could be advertised in the casinos. I know somepeople are really for the casinos and some are really opposed to them. I think if done right it could be a real boost to buffalo and maybe if really done right it could spawn some more delopment downtown. I wish the Rich stadium was downtown. I think a water front stadium like Cleveland would be awesome. I don't know if you can have sports beting at indain casinos. But if you can that would be cool. We could all bet on the bills to lose to teams they where better then and bet on them to lose to teams that are better then them and we would lose all our money. The point I'm trying to get to is that if promotions are done right the casino (if it ever happens) could be verry good for buffalo. Check out the Buffalonews for the article.

I'm pretty sure the Seneca's have to break ground on a casino in erie county by the end of the year...they debated putting it by the airport or on the waterfront. I think downtown would be cool. liek you said they could promote the bills and sabres as well.

tired
At work I fill orders. I do mostly smaller orders that go ups and fed ex. Some of our orders are bigger then some of the small truck orders in terms of weight. Then I process them. There are also orders that go by trucks. Orders with oxy are heavy. I'm not the only one who does line orders. But today we had a lot of line and truck orders so I'm a bit tired. Plus my co worker had to leave for part of the day. So for some of the time I was filling the orders boxing them doing the paper work then using the software to send them UPS and FED EX wich includes pallettizing them also, by myself. Today I was not Happy. Our boss/co worker helped out on the line when he could. Tommarow is going to suck to. I like what I'm doing but some times I have to listen to heavy music to cope with the stress. It can really help sometimes. My job isn't stressfull intself it is just that in the back of your head you know they pay more for the same work at other companies. The other factor is you want to get all the work done but sometimes there is just to much. Don't get me wrong some overtime is nice. But it would also be nice if we didn't have to do it to get everything done. But you can't work to late otherwise you are no longer effective. I may be back on complaining again on thursday but it is payday and on saturday I'm going to the fair I hope it is nice.

NFL
Category: sports
Last night before WWE came on I watched about an Hour of the Steelers Vs. Philadelphia. I don't know who wound up winning. I did check in on it during the breaks in wrestling. I'm really looking forward to regular season starting. I'm usaly a 3 game person depending on who is playing. I watch the two day games and then the game at night. The Bills are not the only team I like. I'm not a Falcons fan but I like to watch there games becuase watching Vick is fun. The same can be said of the Packers sord of. I'm not a packers fan but a like Farve. But what i find interesting is that in California it is 3 hours earlier. Since they are live that might be odd waking up that early to watch football. But at the same time the 8pm game would be on at five and over around 8 or 9 then you could still watch your prime time programing. Or at least this Is how I assume it would work I'm sure twisted could give me more info on watching live TV based on eastcoast times.

Brawl
Yesterday I went to the Ball Park Brawl V. It was a lot of fun and the bisons won wich is cool. Charlie Haas and Jackie formaly of WWE where there and she won her match and Charlie wound up in a great match winning the Natural heavyweight title and then he wound up attacking Harry Smith (son of davy boy smith) to set up a match today after the rochester game. Sabu and the Sandman had a great main event match. Mic Foley did comentary and wound up counting the 3 count. Todd Gordon who was a big part Of ECW was in the sandman's corner. It was a lot of fun and I had great seats in the second row. To bad greenday had to be on the same day. On my way to the wrestling I saw an add for "The Stripteasers" at nietiches but I missed it, it was on friday I was pissed. I did go to the Karibana fest. It was small and some people warn't set up and those that did didn't have anything on the grill. I'm guessing they where figureing they needed to be set up by the end of the parade. Not sure when the music started but there was a stage set up.
