Border's Books
I clearly can't afford to buy these three books. But I didn't have a pen or my sidekick so I decided to buy them in order to get the ISBN numbers. I am keeping only the DHTML guide. Should I feel bad about this. I was thinking about why computer books are so expensive. Maybe it is just because they are like tickets to making more money.

Robin and The Robery
Robin, [inlink]robin,214[/inlink] sorry to hear about your incident. You should really post a description of the man so other people know to watch out for him. Maybe even scan in a little sketch.

I agree that the police in Buffalo are useless. I have called them during three serious situations [inlink]paul,692[/inlink] in Buffalo, and they have never helped and/or arrived during the time of the crime or even within an hour of the situation.

That is one advantage to living in Kenmore, that little police state on the other side of Kenmore avenue. I mean you have to deal with their draconian policies, like no siting on the sidewalk, etc but at least you know in an emergency they are there in about 45 seconds, seriously. If I was old and law abiding this would be ideal. They have even recovered several bikes for me which is never going to happen here in Buffalo.

The other night at (e:keith) 's house [inlink]news,362[/inlink] Jill and I were just joking but I think it holds true. We were saying that in a real emergency we would probably just call the Kenmore police and beg them to get us, haha.

I honestly do not feel any safer with our city cops. Just more scared, remember critical massacre anyone? [inlink]emily,167[/inlink]

Or how about when (e:chaibiscoot) had her night visit from cops [inlink]chaibiscoot,11[/inlink].

Sometimes vigilante tactics [inlink]holly,62[/inlink] are the best ones. One time in the Tops parking lot my mother was mugged, and (e:mike) was just a kid. He apparently just screamed and screamed while my mother wrestled her purse back. Robin, you should just carry some mace with you. I mean even if its illegal, we can pretty much rest assured the Buffalo cops will never catch you. Maybe even a tazer.

Lung Crunchies Update
In reference to [inlink]soyeon,45[/inlink], I have also made it a week without smoking any tobacco. This is the longest ever I think. So thanks to my little lung crunchies [inlink]paul,1246[/inlink] and some tastey mushrooms, I don't think I will ever be able to smoke cigarettes again.

The Taste Of Buffalo
Okay, so my very favorite time of the year is almost here. I once skipped out on a trip to France in order to attend the Taste of Buffalo. Here is a with all of the information. It is July 10th from 11am to 9PM and July 11th from 11am to 7pm.

I know, most of you probably think, he is so skinny, what the hell does he even eat. Well, at the tast eof Buffalo I eat everything, especially anything wrapped in tastey bacon, like the bacon wrapped shrimp they are bound to have.

It is time to plan for the day and save money for the 6000 tickets I will need to have. I was going to promote the site that day but I figure I'll skip it and wait for the Elmwood Art Festival [inlink]news,370[/inlink] where my hands won't be so greasy.

Anyone want to go along with us?

Buy Me A Drink Events Addition
I spent the day not planning for my trip or getting the car fixed but rather progrqamming the events calendar at the request of (e:keith). I hope that lots of events happen because of this as I had really intended to wait until I had time to develop the epeeps.net site.

I turned out better than I expected for an afternoon. If you'll have any feedback for the calendar system feel free to send me an IM.

I am going to go eat now. You can find me online via my sidekick if need something or have any questions about the event system. How about someone posts an event for tonight to celebrate its creation and buy me a drink.

On another note, I fixed the AIM stuff so maidencateyes can now be part of the game!
