So I basically spent my day over in Canada playing Poker @ Casino Niagara. Started out playing 1-2 No Limit but the guy next to me smelled really bad so I ended up going to 3-6 Limit. A nice friendly game but there was this one rock that just could not do anything wrong. By the time I left he was up about 400. I was down for most of the 6+ hours I was there. All I was doing was playing good quality hands. By the end around 9:30 ish or so my Italian buddy engineer guy that I had a good time playing with had to run to his wife or else she was going to kill him. A good time to leave. The only thing I am afraid of is this guy was coughing quite a bit and I'm a bit paranoid of such things.
So on the way out I became a bit hungry. Harvey's was something I was craving but by the time I arrived at the location on Montrose & Thorld Stone it was closed. The next stop was Quizno's on Lundy's Lane. Fortunantly I found a good substitute for my Canadian Cravings. A Montreal Smoked Meat Sub!!1 Good times, plus the music they had playing was descent and I was glad that they stayed open for me. So I tipped them $1
I have a pretty crazy week lined up for me. I just hope I can get through it in one piece without too much stress, well bad stress anyway. The lesson I have to lean is not to get too frazled and worried. Today's session was a nice small exercise.

Mickey's Fine Malt LiquorFriday's always kick my butt. After working late on Thursday and coming in early the next morning I am exhausted. So when you wake up at 10 at night your options are a bit limited. After getting a bit nostalgic for some Maple Road chain restaurant cuisine after hearing about the demise of Bennigan's and Tony Roma's I went to T.G.I. Friday's with my Ex. It is so strange as we get along better after we broke up.
When we finished our late night dinner, I didn't want the evening to end. So as I always did when we were dating I challenged her a bit. I suggested that we hit Allen St, for some reason she was always afraid to go down there. Hardware actually made a great impression for her as she immediately enjoyed the atmosphere.
The highlight of the night: Hardware now served MICKEYs Fine Malt Liquor. I have been waiting to drink that stuff for 8 years now ever since the movie SLC Punk!
Yes I am weird. That place has a good selection of liquor and wines and when I go there all I drink is Pabst Blue Ribbon and now Mickey's.

Resturant ClosingsWhat is it with Western New York? I swear things get more screwed up as time goes on.
As I heard read on LJ, Bennigan's and Tony Roma's are closed!!!!
This totally sucks >-/
Benigan's was killer for those pints and caloric bar food.
Tony Roma's was a nice upper middle nice place to take a date and enjoy your carnavour side.
At least that new place Smoke 'n Bones opened up on Maple, oh and that Red Robin. Just I loved those two places. So many great memories.
Now I am going to have to visit my Mom down in Florida.

Fuse TVLed Zeppelin's The Song Remains the Same is on Fuse. I remember when I was a kid and they played it on the forerunner to Fuse, MuchMusic. When we first got the dish and discovered MuchMucic USA, the letdown was bad. Here when I would go up to my Grandma's house in Hamilton and check out all the cool kick butt video's and features on Much it was almost cfny 102.1 on TV. Then years later I get MMUSA, and it just left me scratching my head.
At least the Labbat Blue Spotlight survives through Loaded on FUSE. That always has been a good time watching a block of old and new videos from an artist.
Ok it's late and I have a Dr's appmt tom. morn.

I found out about Much Music on a trip to Tornto. What was interesting was how MMUSA carried a lot of Much Music's shows. Fuse is still I verry good Chanel but I wish we Much Music on Adelphia they had some cool stuff on there.

I have only been there once and that was when it was a Hardware store. I have walked by it a bunch of times, to be honest I have never been to any of the Allen st. Bars.
Hardware makes a damn fine steak sandwich, too. Mmmm.
