X Walk
Category: walk
I saw the new X Men Movie today. I thought it was verry good. Like (e:Enknot) I won't say much as I don't want to give anything away. It was preaty much what I was expecting wich is good. For those that see it stay through the end credits (as you should all ready do if you are a true movie fan, but most don't) and get the end of the movie.

I decided to walk Home and take some pictures there where a few things on my way that I was looking for but couldn't find, I must have had the adresses wrong. I was going to take pictures of the Histocial society and some big fancy houses around that area and maybe some more but Camara Battery Problems stoped my camara from working. So that stoped that but I still had a great walk. I wound up get a few CD's at New World Records. I went into to spot but didn't see any ice tea on the menu they must have iced tea on lemonade but I didn't see it so I left.

Hopefully I'll post some more pictures soon from my travels. I'm supposed to be going to one of those places on the riverfront for dinner then hopefully I'll make it to PMT's tonight. Hopefully I'll get some new bateries and take pics.

Sabre Fever
Category: sports
I think it is interesting how Sabre Fever has taken over Buffalo. The Sabres are everywhere and Radio Stations have Sabre songs and highlights mixed in with songs. The Sucess of the sabres I'm sure is also a greet boon to the city and local areas economy, I hope Sabre Fever lasts and lasts well of to watch the game.

I hope so too. The area needs to feel good about something, a cup would be good as any.

Square
Category: music
Today I had no energy this morning. I really wanted to go see Big Bad Voodo Daddy or what ever they are called at the sqaure but not really up for it emotionaly. I wonder if I would have ran into anyone I know there. I have been there and other people I know have been there at the same time and I didn't run into them. When I got in and checked my (e:mail) I saw Jackdaw is performing after the square at The Union it is somewhare around the Chip Strip I think that would have been amazing. Of course if I would have gone to the square then I wouldn't have read my (e:mail) so I wouldn't have known but that would be an amazing night. Last night I went to my Sisters roomates Graduation wich was fun and some of his friends graduated too who I've meet before but didn't know they where graduating to. But I did get to see the end of the sabres game. Going to the Airport to see the sis she is coming home from jersy so I will miss the end of the game but get to see the begining. But back to music I'm currently listing to Evanescence "anywhaere but Home" it is a live CD and is preaty good. I Have never seen them live I bet they would be preaty cool to see. In terms of going to the square I'm the type who goes only to see bands I want to see. AS opposed to the type who goes to everyone of them. Some peoople also go to party and have the music as a background. Oh yeah I hope everyone has a great weekend. I think (e:jenks) mentioned it in a previous post but Jackdaw will be at Swinee (not sure how to spell it) House friday night for anyone who likes live music.

the casa
Category: house
Yeah the Sabres lost last night but they play on wends and I hopefully will catch the end of it Have a Graduation to go to. But 24 was really good and Had a very powerfull ending. But the other Day (e:ladycroft) mentioned a painting she got for the new place and it got me thinking about maybe posting pictures of art and other posters I have in my Apt. I know everybody has differant styles of how they like there place to look and I think I may do that, but I have to either re Size the pictures I have wich I may or retake them as smaller pics. I also have to double check my posts and make sure I havn't done that before. Take care all.

Farie Car Add
Category: gay
First of all I'm not sure where this post is going to go exactly so I hope no one is offendend by it. I don't want anybody to think that Its a personal attack on anyones lifestyle cause it isn't I just about to maybe go on a rant.

For those of you who havn't seen it on TV or at the movies. There is this add with this little fly farie and she like turns an above ground subway into a little toy train. Then she attacks this vechile over and over and can't change it into anything and get knocked into a wall. There is this guy walking his attack dog and says "Silly Litte Farie" Then she hits him with the pixie dust from her wand and he is now with 3 little podles has a striped shirt on a sweeter tied around his neck. I myself find it funny that this guy mocks this cool little farie and then she takes it out on him cause he deserves it. Well someone at work who has seen the add was a little pissed. I guess he saw it again and they took out the "Silly Little Faire" line. He said that Gays must have complaind so they took out the line. But I wonder if strights complained. Some strights hate gay jokes and find gays repulsive. So I guess the add offendend some one.

I admit I havn't seen the add yet with out the line. But here is the part that burns me up. When you make a commerical that is funny and has a joke in it someone is going to find it offensive. If you are willing to put something in that might upset people then you should have the balls to keep it in. Like that great Nike commerical where the Serial Killer is chasing some girl like in the movies and she escapes because she has Nikes on. But some women found it offensive. Why it was a movie killer not a real killer. So nike pulled the add, Fucking pussies. Everytime something offends someone you can't just pull or alter the ad. There are exceptions to this. For example if the ad was made to offend or if it was really writen out of hate.

Here is another thing I don't get why not just cut out the end and not have the guys clothes and dogs change, he still points at her and is changed so the joke is still the same.

I admit I thought it was a funny ad and that the guy got what he deserved. I did see the ad once last night and all they did was take out the "Silly Little Fairy" line but still showed the pointing. Someone at work said they saw that version and one where the cut was after little so all you heard was silly then saw the point. If I was offended by it I would still be. All they did was take out farie but you know she is a farie. I don't get why they edited it at all. I think it is a clever and funny ad. Plus the fairy is preaty hot. I myself don't see anything offensive in it. But I'm not offendend verry easily.

I looked up the commercial. You can see it here :::link:::

That commercial is bizzare. I didn't even get it at first. It definitely wasn't a wise marketing choice for Dodge.
