First of all what a lovely day outside it was today. Hope everyone does something fun for Cinco De Mayo. I will be leaving shortly to go to see some stand up comedy at the Town Ballroom (doors 7pm). On my way to see Spiderman 3 (very good) I could smell food from over a block away from Solid grounds I assumed it was them and it smelled very good. But as I'm walking down Brynt I look to my left (hopefully two pictures coming soon) and there is this building and the board are off the front window. Some of you might say so what, who cares. Well sometimes I would say the same thing. But it used to be a resturant years ago. Then they had a fire and boarded everything up and the claim was they where going to reopen. I can't say they will reopen but boards being gone and being able to sord of see stuff inside from across the street.

Spiderman 3 was very good. I went to the 11:35am show at the regal on Elmwood. I knew the basic story so there wasn't any big surprise. I admit I didn't have the best crowd it seemed like there was a lot of talking. Or maybe it was just that the Movie wasn't loud enough. There where a couple strange parts in the movie but they did help tell the story. I will admit it wasn't as good as I thought it would be but it was still very good. But some of that might have been that I think it should have been a little bit louder. The one thing that I liked with out giving anything away is that in the opening credits they showed some of the back story. I also think Topher Grace (that 7o's show) is a great fit to play his character. I also like that they have the theme of revenge and how it can cloud what you do. Again with out giving anything away I like the character devolpement, that the hero is not all good and the villian is all evil I like that it wasn't true in this film. One thing I've liked about all the spidey films is that it seems that they have the perfect actor for each part. I wish I could get into the debate of how things change from the comic to the movie. I won't do that for two reasons. 1) One I don't remember the details well enough. 2) It is a different medium and so to compare them isn't really fair. When doing a movie the viewers often never read the comic so you will change things that they might enjoy more. Plus there is a time factor in a movie you can't make it four hours long. So all in all I had a good time and it was worth the $7.

I had a great time at Spamalot last night. I thought it was very funny but I don't want to give away any of the jokes or gags. There is a review of it in today's Buffalo News. I don't completely agree with it because they kinda compare it to another production of it. If I had seen it somewhere else then I might agree. I think the singing was fine, yeah maybe it could have been a little bit better. But you go to laugh and enjoy your self. I'm also looking forward to comedy this Saturday at town ballroom that should be a good time we shall see.

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.

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.

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.
