Child Porn Photo?
Category: sex
Today I have listened to a cool sounding Band named Silverstein. I had heard they where good and then read about them in (e:Hodown,219) journal. The CD is preaty good it also has a DVD that I still need to watch.

But on to my main point. I understand that the Buffalo News wants to have great pictures and pictures that capture the Eye on the front page but I think they may have gone a little to far. I think the coverage of irish dancers is cool and watching them is amazing. Not that I know much about dancing but i would think dancing from the waist down only and hoping and landing would be tough. For anyone that saw the news today I think you know the picture I'm talking about. It as an up skirt shot of two girls legs and a bunch of dancers in the background. The legs where crossed and there was shadowon the legs meaning that the light was hitting the dress and shadowing the legs this made it an upskirt shot. If the picture would have continued you would have seen everything. I have to admit it was a little bit shocking, I wonder what other pics where taken that couldn't be used.

With The Party and watching stuff I taped I don't think I will have time this weekend but I really want to see the new movie V for Vendetta, it really looks cool. I still Have to decide what to bring other then myself and my camara. I saw some kind of peach alcohol at wilson farms but I don't know if it is supposed to be drank warm or cold or if it is really something you are supposed to mix. Hope everyone has a great St. Patricks day Weekend.

St. Pat's Weekend
Category: holiday
I admit that the saying "every body is irish" is a little racist it means to me everyone changes who they are and become irish for the holiday. It implies that they are less of a person. Maybe I have just allways read into it. But in any event I hope everyone has a great weekend. I know there are all kinds of things to do. For example the old Neighboorhood Parade on Saturday I belive. There is the Delaware Parade on Sunday wich I plan to go to. I know there are at least a few places that have Events after the parade (s). I belive Jackdaw is performing at Crocidile Bar at 11pm on Friday and at Cozumel after the sunday parade around 4pm. For anyone who is interested there web site is www.brokencans.com Not sure why that is there website as opposed to jackdaw but I hope to see them, I havn't seen them in Years. Of Course saturday is Matt's 25th. I hope everyone has a great Holiday weekend and if you like Hockey or Basketball those are on also.

I do kinda agree with ya in that everyone celebrates it togather. But to me it still seems like it is a forced inclusion sord of. But I guess it dosn't to the people who celebrate it and arn't irish. In Buffalo like many other places it becomes a big drinking holiday where that is the focus as opposed to the Holiday, not that there is anything wrong with that.

Timika I think it is awesome you got to see A Sabres Game in DC that is really cool. Hopefully I will talk to you more about DC in person.
ajay - 03/17/06 11:37
I wouldn't agree with that, Peter. I take it to mean that on this day, we're all celebrating together.

Of course, since noone mistakes me for an Irishman, I have to resort to buttons and stickers. If only people knew the Irish in me.... ;-)

you would be happy to know I went to the Sabres game in DC on Tuesday. The Buffalo supporters were louder than the home team! We totally shamed them.

Progress?
Category: buffalo
I know that there are a lot of people in Buffalo who are Anti Casino. I can understand that and they have good Reasons. I disagree but that isn't the point I'm getting to. I know there are a lot of people who don't get The Bass Pro deal and think that the money can be spent in better ways. I know there are people who think the Elmwood Hotel is a bad idea. There was a lot of opposition to Pano trying to destroy that cool atwater house. The problem is that us citizens are hurting Buffalo more then we are helping it. Yes the politicans are evil and hurt the city to. But If I wanted to start a buiness I wouldn't come to Buffalo. If I did I would get all kinds of oppostion and I would have to have meetings. I think that it is good to have stanards and ask questions and say we don't aprove and we think it is a bad idea. But what about when there is something you think is a good idea and then others bitch about it. I think we all want Buffalo to grow and get more Business and have more out of towners visit. But if we shoot down everything business that wants to come here then no one will ever come to Buffalo.

Nice point, Peter. To thrive and grow, WNY must adapt to change. Some of which is not that comfortable. It is complicated and people are passionate about the details- as you said it is good that people have standards and ask questions- but they have to ask the right ones: What is good for the future of WNY? How will this (whatever it is) effect people now and the next generation? To get stuck on the wrong details and wrong questions, well.. answers your question: progress? "um,no. Not around here.."

Hockey hoops
Category: sports
For those fans of Hockey The sabres are currently on OLN. I'm currently listening to the game on NHL.com . They have a free part of there site called NHL radio and you can listen to games using media player it works preaty good.

I belive strting on the 16th Mens March Madness starts. College Basketball or at least the finals is fun to watch. I never see as much of it as I want to. But they cover it so well on TV with Bonus Coverage and look ins on other games. I know some people who think the pros are better. The only thing is those playoffs take so long with lots of games. I like the excitement of elimanation.

Hopefully I will watch some of the Sabres game on Saturday and Tape Saturday Nights Main Event and then make it over to Matts 25th. Then on Sunday there is the Parade and after WOrds Jackdaw is supposed to be performing at Cozumel. I had another sports thing to mention but I don't remember what it was. Oh hope everyone had a Great Steak and BJ Day. I wonder if there is a Vegatarian Version. Oh does anyone know of a good sports Bar that shows multiple games and has great tunes. That is what elmwood needs is a Sports Bar or is there one I don't know about?

Steak & BJ Day
Category: holiday
For those oif you who have never heard of it here is a link to one website about it. . Finaly A holiday for the guys where they get a steak and BJ sounds great. But I wonder since it was ment for a guy and girl I wonder if two gay guys could celebrate it. I wonder if anyone really celebrates it at all.

The above card was from a link sent to me fromBullradio at Myspace. Steak and BJ day is March 14th. It still seems like a strange holiday. I wonder what would happen if you walked into a resturant and Asked for the steak and BJ special I wonder if they would kick you out or have you arested. Now that I think of it in the movie waiting they work at one of those places and Steak and BJ day is never mentioned as rude and crude as that movie was that kinda surprises me. If any one really celebrates it I hope you enjoy it Tommarow Or in My world Tuesday.

Ahhh, I was trying to remember who mentioned this in a past post.. ok, it was Jason.

I want to see some Hallmark Cards. I want to see this on a calender. hell, lets make it a national holiday...

whatever.. I just like days off from work.. :)
zobar - 03/13/06 20:41
I've heard of Steak & BJ Day before - the idea being that the effort that men put into making Valentine's Day special for women is returned to them on Steak & BJ Day. It's like the circle of life.

That having been said, I think I'll be lucky to get a cheeseburger this Steak & BJ Day. )-:

I know Jason has mentioned it in passing in a post recently but I have no idea wich one. This is another holiday that being single on does me no good. If I was the man from Nantucket than that would be a differant story. Maybe I should start dating someone on tuesday :-)
jenks - 03/13/06 19:55
oh crap, don't let josh and jason see this one! ;)
