I will admit that I should have planed better and I could have set up the timers to tape all my Monday stuff 24, Heroes, and The Real Wedding Crashers (think Punk'd or Practical jokes at a wedding) that way I could go to The Best of Buffalo Awards and eat for free I bet it would be a great time.
One Tuesday I am going to see Montypython's Spamalot. I admit I have never seen what it is based on The Search for the Holy Grail. But I have watched the show and so I'm looking forward to this. Hey I have to take some safe chances once or twice. I like Shea's it is really a cool old theatre.
On may 5 also know as Cinco De Mayo I'm taking another chance and going to see some comedy at the Town Ballroom at the Shreed & Regan comedy fest. I only know of one guy so far but I'm sure I'll still have a good time. Not sure if I will wind up going anyplace after that but maybe I will.
Just want to pass along to remind people to keep there eyes on your local papers. I know that you may not agree with some of the politics in them. But a lot of them have ads for concerts that are coming up or other events. It is about to become the very busy concert season. One of the ones I'm really looking forward to Is Godsmack at Sheas that should be amazing. I'm not sure if I should get tickets for ICP also known as Insane Clown Posse. I have seen them before but it was years ago and soda pop went everywhere but it was a great time. I'm not into not sure if it would be called rap or hip hop like I really used to be. But that being said it could be a really fun show.

CondemedCategory: movies
I forgot that I wanted to do a second post on two movies I saw Yesterday that I liked. The first one was Disturbia. I admit that it did kinda remind me of this movie called The Burbs but it isn't a comedy. I admit that suspense isn't really my thing but I liked this one. Action is more my type of movie and that is why I saw The Commdemed Staring Steve Austin as the hero of the story. The fight scenes where pretty good. But I liked that it was more then just a hunting guys down type of movie it also had the story line of it being an internet reality show. If you like that type of movie you will enjoy it. On my way there I saw this interesting looking guy on Elmwood I'm wondering if anyone else has seen him or knows anything about him. He had on what almost looked like flip flops or water shoes or even maybe dress shoes. The shorts he had on kinda looked like board shorts from a distance. Ok so at first I thought the guy was nuts but then I thought no maybe he has money not really sure but it is an interesting jacket. The jacket is something I would expect to see in the country or down south it was a leather jacket with the Southern Flag on it and on the sleeves it said rebel. I think that is the first time I've ever seen anyone black with a rebel jacket on before. I'm not saying that they haven't but it is uncommon because often that symbol is more about racism then it is about southern pride. It also looked like and I could be wrong that he had on Oakley sun glasses it at least looked like there symbol. That being said that is one of the kinda fun things about the strip is how different everyone is. On a side note not sure if anyone has noticed who drinks pepsi they have websites on there can and bottle designs. I took the slut test on the link in (e:twisted)'s blog and it said i'm 58% of a slut not that I have any idea what that really means. Oh yeah back to movies for a minute. I tried to watch a couple last night but my cable wasn't working right. So maybe tonight after the game I'll try to watch A scanner Darkly or something like that.

What I want 2Category: travel
So before I get into what I want just wanted to say that the sabres play today at 2pm and that they won on Friday but the Bandits lost in overtime so there season is over. But the sabres got me thinking about traveling and so did a check I got.
I find traveling fun. But what is odd is that I'm not really an adventureous type of person. I'm also a picky eater so like if I went to another country I could never get all the culture I'm also not into dancing so that would be another part I would mis out on. But that being said there are some places in other countries that I would like to visit. We won't let the fact that I don't have a passport stop this little bit of writing. I would love to see those Huge falls that I can't remember the name of I think they might be in Brizil I know they border at least two places and they make Niagara Falls look small. Then some cities I would like to see are London, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Shanghi, Seoul, Paris and lots of places in Italy. I'm sure there are lots of places I would like with white sand beaches.
I guess the next list of places would be both in the US and some in Canada. I don't really have any good reasons for most of these places or maybe I do and just don't know them. Cities I would like to visit Boston, Chicago, Montreal, Seattle, San Fransisco , San Diego, Pitsburg (yes they have one of my favorite football teams and I have never been there and can't even spell it, D'oh), Ottawa (Canada), Las Vegas and New York City. I admit i have been close by but never in the city itself. Oh yeah Philly would be cool to visit also. Oh yeah I forgot I would also like to spend more then a day checking out Miami some time also.
One thing that might also be a great time would be going on a Baseball, Hockey, Football or maybe even lacrosse tour. I think Baseball has the most history and the stadiums are the most interesting so that might be fun. What I would do is go to a game in a bunch of different cities and then I could explore the cities also. Of course that starts to get very costly but it would be fun to go to a few of them. Oh that reminds me maybe I could check out Atlanta and Charolete. I have been to NC but never there. I'm not saying that I will ever be able to make it to all these places but I would like to.

Dinning out and picturesCategory: photos
So last night I wound up going to Boomerang it is on Niagara street and Had a Hot Roast Beef sandwich . I should have got a pasta dish instead. Not that the sandwich was bad but I should have said well done as some of it was red. I didn't finish it all not because it wasn't good, cause it was. But something about the texture on the way it was sliced or something bothered me but this happened the last time I had a Roast Beef Sandwich at HSBC Arena. All in all a good time was had. In terms of (e:Jenks) I have been to Astoria before but it was a long time ago so you will have to wait on mike to give a review, but I have heard it is very good. I haven't been to solid grounds in a long time. Ok here are some food pictures.



The other day when I went to get tickets I walked down Elmwood and took a few pictures but not a lot here they are. I forget what store that seat is in but it is pretty interesting.



Before each Bandits game I try to take at least one picture of Buffalo so here are the pre-bandit game pictures.




Two pictures of my Sis's Kitten that I think came out cool. I had to play around with my camera a little bit for them to come out like this and not sure how I did it exactly. In my first attempt you couldn't really see what was out of windows.


One thing that I do hope that the Dinning out for life will do for me is to get me to go out and eat at more places around my house or at least up on Elmwood. There are so many places I have never tried or it has been so long since I've eaten there. Speaking of that I have no idea if I even have any thing for dinner.
The sabres start the series with the rangers to night. I will be watching it at home and not at the party at the plaza but maybe one of the games I should go to it and take some pictures plus it might be a lot of fun. So I have one more picture to post for the Sabres and the sabres fan and the beer fans.

I hope everyone has a great rest of what is left of the week and I gotta go figure out what to eat.

o0o, McClellan's is about a block away from me, and those houses out your window look very familiar. Maybe not though since a lot of places look identical.

Some time I'll have to try them out. When I usaly go past them they it is when I'm going to the bank so it isn't part of the plan. I'm very picky food wise. I'm not sure what there hours are but often times I go past it and it is closed. Maybe they only do breakfast on Saturday not sure. Another place I allways forget about is Jimmie Macs or what ever it is called now.

ooh, how is Astoria? I was just at solid grounds the other day, and thought it looked like a place worth checking out. Give us a review!
I'm not sure where I'm going to be going with the family. I just hope it is soon cause I'm getting kinda hungry.
me and (e:mk) will be at Astoria dining out for life tonihgt. What a better combination than eating and giving to charity at the same time! We all know I like to eat!
