Hush
Category: advertising
I hope to talk more about advertisng soon. But for right now I will start with one distrubing add for a place called HUSH. there is a new Lunge in Casino Niaigara called Hush. I don't know if it is supposed to be a gay club or gay friendly club. If it isn't then they sure picked a bad model. I can't tell if it is girl or a guy. I don't have any problems with guys who look like girls or vice versa, or gays or transexuals. But that being said I don't understand how that ad could be aimed at stright guys and girls. To me it seems as if they are trying to sell androgeny wich is fine. But I have a fealling that, that was not the attempt. Hopefully I can do a little more reaserch and get more answers. I don't even have time to rant about that creepy burger king who wakes up next to the guy in bed but maybe that will be my next post who knows. Go Redskins, Go Sabres I'm off to watch sports and see if I see any other weird adds. [bgcolor]#ffeef3[/bgcolor]

The king in the old days was a good Character. But he has the scary plastic head. In the first add you could tell his hands where hairy and he had on gold rings. The newer ads arn't as creppy but looking in through the guys window. I prefer burger king food but they need to get rid of this new guy and let go of the crepy ads.

Marathons
Category: tv
Over the holiday there were a bunch of marathons. I did watch some of the Monty Phyton one. I wasn't in the mood to watch the Tlight zone. But sometimes other stations willl put on atleast 3 episodes on in a row it is a good way to get caught up on shows that you have missed or that you might be interested in. I have heard of some people who wont watch a show untill there is a marathon that way they get the entire story at once instead of waiting a week. I wish I could have watche the 24 hours of 24 on A&E but that was to intense. But it is a great way to cathch up.

Winter X games 10
Category: winter sports
There are lots of sports to do in the winter. I used to ski some but never learned how to snowboard or race snowmobiles or any of that stuff. I admit I love watching it but don't see it as often as I like. There have been lots of differant kinds of sking in the olympics for a long time. But snowboarding was (im my opionion) put in because it was verry popular and to try and cut into A huge market and a sport wich is growing at a large rate. But that being said both snowboarding and sking can be seen live at the X games. For more info go to EXPN.com . One aspect that I really like is when they do Moto X on the snow that is amazing. The schedulle I got is for what will be shown on TV. Sometimes what is shown changes based on weather and snow conditions. Also some of the events that are finals the last of runs are on sportscenter live from the site and then some times they give you some sports news and then go back to the event live. I'm not going to get into the debate of if it is better for them to be live or not (they used to be taped and then showed). I have never tried it but I think there is a way you can watch all the events live over there site. I'm sure some the the athletes at Winter X will be at the olympics also it happend the same way 4 years ago, wow I can't belive that was 4 years ago I can bearly remember it.

Rollergirls
Category: tv
Before I get to the show Rollergirls that I taped last night and watched today. When I got home last night a had a phone message on my machine from a buddy of mines father that his son had a daughter. I didn't know what to say on a call back so i left it at that. It is hard for me to imagine him with a kid.

There is this show on A&E called Rollergirls it was on last night and is repeated tonight at 10 pm. If you go to www.aetv.com you can get more info on the show. One thing I got from there are the pictures below. The show is a reality show that follows girls who play Roller Derby. I used to really like watching that it was fun. Plus there are a lot of fine chicks playing it. It is also a ruff sport. The league they play in is in Austin, Texas. I don't know if each show is going to be the same way. But this one Was about the Rookie Venis Envy number 9 and 1/2 and her life outside of the game and with her team mates and what goes on outside of the sport. But they also had highlites and a preaty good overview of one of there games. I think it is a good series, at least based on the first show.

Sabres
Category: photos
Cool all 5 Pictures Worked. I decided to only do 5 incase they didn't work. If you are interested in seeing more pictures from the new years game I went to I have two links for you. They are (this one is the newyears day game) and (2 previous games). Over the season I will add more pictures the two albums. I'm going to 1 more game for sure and i'm thinking about going to a game a couple days before that one.
