First of all before I forget the Bandits Have a home Game on Saturday night Vs. The Colorado mammoth. It should be a good game and it is a vary important game since the Bandits are in second place in there devision. Colorado is in first place in the other devision and I think only has one lose so far.
Last weekend I had a busy and fun weekend with the Car Show, Mat's Birthday and the parade and I took lots of pictures. But one little draw back is how long it took to put all those pictures into a picture album. Yes I use picture albums. I also download the pictures onto a computer and then back them up on CD or maybe the computer is the back up. One cool thing is if you have pictures on a CD is that you can look at them on a DVD player assuming it is one of the ones that is JPEG compliant . I will admit that I don't do it that often but it is still a pretty cool idea. But what my problem is now is that I have to go out and get shelving or some type of bookcase that is big enough for all my albums. I have some small ones and some large ones so finding one that is the right size is tough, but I'm currently looking into it. Maybe I'll find one this weekend I hope.
Oh yeah that is the other thing I wanted to mention On the 28th I'm going to see Black Label Society, that should be a fun time for sure. I forgot the other thing I wanted to mention. So I hope everyone has a great weekend.

Pictures and More03/20/2007 19:47 #38534
St. Matts Pats wheelsCategory: photos

We shall try again 93rd time I think)the above link or web address should lead to the pictures I took on Saturday at the world of wheels. Here are a few samples of those pictures.









Here are a few pictures that didn't get posted from St. Mat's







I will admit Sunday didn't go as I hoped. I got to the parade late and missed some of Div. 1 but it wasn't really my fault. I also didn't wind up going to see Jackdaw but maybe I should have since I caught the end of the Sabres game and they lost. But I was thinking that it would be way to crowded then I was warm and comfy at home a slept way to early in the day. Here is my view of the parade.












































Just wanted to add that those are not all of my parade pictures but a good amount of them. OH yeah I also decided to try firefox 2 and I see it underlines words that it thinks are misspelled and the funny thing is that firefox both times now is underlined. I noticed that now when you click on a link instead of opening another page it opens it as a tab instead that is kinda cool.

St Matts PicturesCategory: peterazzi
First of all the way I upload the pics it dosn't put them in numerical order when you do multiple pics but from looking at the pictures you get the general idea. Also sorry if there is red eye. That is one thing I don't like about my camera even with the red eye setting you still will get some of it. If you don't like how you look in the picture sorry. The thing with the Pictures I take is that there is usaly a few people in them and sometimes people in the background. I know there is one picture of (e:Lilho) that I put up my mistake I was suposed to turn it the other way so when you see that one do it in your mind. I had a good time and as one of the other (e:peeps) said it was a mellow or maybe calm party but still fun. It was nice to see some new faces there, or at least people who I hadn't met before.. I will admit I could have and should have been more social but oh well. I decided to post these today and download what ever pictures I take at the parade on sunday or monday. I think it is awesome that some peeps are getting togather to go to the parade. I think I won't be in those numbers that I'm just going to go with my sister but we shall see. I'm guessiing I may skip Jackdaw as well, but I'll find out later. Ok Here are the pictures.

Ok a few things. I'm glad (e:ingrid) came also (e:imk) I'm sure you will have a chance to meet her again. The Mayflower is on my way home so I figured I'd try and take a picture of it. With my camera at least taking pictures in the snow is tricky with snow in the air the flash hits them and makes them bright instead of the object behind it. If you turn the flash off then you wind up capturing the picture and get that orange color. One thing I havn't tried is red eye that is when there are two flashes I wonder what that would do. But I think that is what causes (e:carolinian)'s view that the house looks like outer space because the snow kinda look like stars. I think my next post my include pictures of the parade I'm going to later. Oh yeah yesterday after I went to world of wheels I saw (e:Paul) (e:lilho) and (e:brit) on my way home. I may put up some of those pictures as well with a link to my webshots page.

Well done. I didn't even see you take those photos. If I ever need someone to assassinate the Shogun, you are the ninja for the job.

Once again, (e:metalpeter), I must commend you for your hard work in preserving the rich history of estrip debauchery for all to see.
Kudos aside, this is gonna sound kinda weird, but when I saw the first picture in the series, I somehow mistook the black of the night as outer space and the falling snow as stars, so it looked the entire house was in outer space. And I gotta say, 24 Linwood looks really cool in outer space. If you look at the first picture of the set, and you squint your eyes while doing so, you'll see what I'm talking about.
Any photoshop gurus up for the job of converting my brain's gross distortion of truth into a really cool picture and posting it on (e:strip)?

No pictures Yet So I had a good time at Matt's party it looked like everyone else did to. I thought it was awesome that two people made him two gluten free deserts. It was a good relaxed time. I got to meet a few (e:peeps) I havn't before and that was preaty cool. Again I should have been more social. All I said to Hilda aka (e:ingrid) was you don't look like your picture. But what should have followed was but like in your picture you are cute. That being said I still had a good time. I'm not sure when i will put up pictures since I have World of Wheels to go to today and then the parade on sunday but Maybe later today. It was great to see some peeps I havn't seen in some time. Hope everyone has a great St. Pats and rest of the weekend.

800 St. MattsCategory: 800
First of allHappy Birthday Matt!!!!
I will be there tonight Having a good time. This is officaly I guess my 800th post. I wanted to wait to have something deep to say. But all I can say is that wow that is a lot of posts. But I wonder is the 800 a big deal or is it really breaking 800 so maybe the next post should be the big deal. I figured my next post would be pictures. That is when ever I have time to put up pictures I havn't taken yet. So I figured I would just make 800 a regular post. I don't really want to talk about how a taco bell comerical has a lion on one of the adds and one lion says to the other looks good and the other one says the man or the taco. I admit that I'm surprised that it hasn't offendend anyone who is stright to call and complain about it. I'm also suprised that they havn't got mail from gays who are offendend. Or maybe if they have they have said they don't care cause all there adds are funny. What got me thinking about this is how someone I know, who I won't say was fliping chanels and found LOGO and got allupset. It isn't a pay chanel and is bounced off a statilate and anyone with one can pick it up. I think it is on most systems and is owned by MTV. It isn't a pay chanel so it can't be graffic, but this friend of mine was so upset they they are going to block it. Maybe it is just me but that is going to far, even if you don't approve. I just wish people wouldn't get so mad about stuff that they personaly disagree with. I think that often in general people belive that there beliefs are right and that anyone who disagrees with them are wrong. I will admit I do slip into that myself and don't even realise it. I'm not saying that you should change or ideas but you should be able to understand that just cause you have differant ideas then someone else that dosn't make them crazzy: cause if it does then you are out of your mind also.
Wow I got off on a tangent sorry about that. Hopefully i'll see some of you peeps tonight. For those that I don't have a great weekend and have a nice Holiday and stay safe.

Yeah it is funny How I assumed it was a gay Joke. But I assumed that cause on one other ad a lion refers to one of the girls in the tent as sour cream. But maybe it also had to do with the lions tone and thinking it was a funny ad. In any event I still think those are a funny line of comericals.
I think Ajay you have a good theory and it does make sense. I don't like to throw the word Hate around cause it really is a strong word that isn't allways right. Just because someone is mad dosn't mean it is hate. But I think hate and fealing one is superior to another is a factor in why people get so angry at oposing views.

Congratulations, (e:Metalpeter) !
As for why people get upset at others who don't share their beliefs, I have a theory.
I think only those who are very insecure about their own beliefs get upset at those who don't share their beliefs. People who are secure don't give a rats ass for what others think.
Case in point: those who truly understand a religion are very tolerant of others; the ones who have a negligible or shallow grasp are the ones who are viciously intolerant.
Same with this gay-bashing. Men who are insecure in their own orientation have the biggest problem with gays.
Pot smoking? Same deal. Those who are weak and prone to addictive urges scream bloody murder about the evils of pot smoking.

I always thought the lion meant the guy looked good to EAT, not in a sexual way... never thought of it as a gay thing... hehe kinda funny to think of it that way though.

Yeah I have to have them in albums. Firstly that way they are there and I can see them and touch them. Secondly when formats change it may at someday make them hard to view if they are just stored digitly. I store mine on CDs and not DVDs although that can be done. But in the few years of dvds (small versions of laser discs basicly ) they now have HD and blueray and blue ray players will only play blueray discs. I wouldn't be surprised if in 20 years CD formats for music is gone. I'm not saying that it will be. I'm just not comfortable with that being the only way I have the pictures. I have to physicly have them. Not to mention when they are printed they do look differant then in there digital form. Maybe when I put up my next thing Of pictures I should include a picture of my albulms . I should take a picture of them today. GRanted it will not be all of them but the ones that arn't to old.
You mean you print hard copies and put them in albums? That's great. I wish I did that. That's the one thing I miss about digital pix- having a good old paper photo album.
awww, that's so cute peter!
