PSA for a friday night in Buffalo
I haven't seen you peeps in a minute.

I know this is really short notice, but if you're wondering what to do this fine Friday night, but there's a free concert at the Albright Knox.

Starts at like 7ish, and I hear there will be some booze perhaps, and fud (not a spelling error it's pronounced fudd like elmer, but it's the stuff you put in your mouth when you're hungry).

I'll be there, so if it's not everything you hoped for you can throw tomatoes at me, or like come and say "hi, where're you been you friggin' abandoner!?", or something.

Later peep-o's

imk2 - 05/11/07 17:47
this is only the begining of the real abandonment that is soon to come. you just wait.

Ants are cool, Spiders are not...anymore
Ok...

Went to the park today (I know I've been gone for a long time, hey yall), took the midget and my nephew "Squishy".

His momma nicknamed him that when he was in the womb, and it hasn't gone away yet. She was watching "Finding Nemo", you know that scene where the goofy flat fish finds a piece of plankton and coos to it... I figure, if you end up a football dude. You know, on defense, being nicknamed Squishy, or "the Squish" not so bad. If you end up addicted to Wendy's and not quite able to scratch hard to reach places on your on body, not so good. Even if you end up a little tubby.

Both of the kids are about 3-4 and the exact same height, and they like to hang out w/ each other and 2 kids isn't too much. So away we had snacks and one of them dropped a fishy cracker (you know the Pepridge Farm doodles) near a nest of ants and the ant rejoiced!

It was kinda nice giving them a leg up and watching them go to town. We crushed a cracker up and srpinked them and it was gone in minutes. Very very fascinating.

Ants are a lot more fun when they're not in you're cubicle.

We bought this really awsome 10$ kite from target to fly since the day was delightfully windy and went to the watefront to fly it. It was really cool. Didn't take any sticks to get it up and running so it was out of the box and in the air in seconds, and out the grasp of the 3yr old you entrusted it to and into lake Erie in about 45 minutes. Still, I was so impressed that I'm going to go get another one.


  • SPIDER MAN 3 SPOILER DON'T READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU PLAN TO SEE THE FILM ***

In Theaters Now! !

So don't spoil it for your self go see it before you read this



Went Thursday night because I wanted to see it before anyone else because of stupid people like me who'd release news about it before I got to see it. (Sorry if I'm doing that to you, but I did post warning so what ever dude). The woman even came with. She's awfully sweet for those sortsa things. She genuine likes nerdy things when they're put together well. We saw Grindhouse together which I will defend as being a must-see-in-the-cinema masterpiece that challenges the pallet and expertly pays homage to a vein of film that I'm very glad was forgotten and she loved it. A co-worker (you know who you are), confessed to not being able to see since it really is a gross movie, and he's lady fair's gross out factor was too high.

On the other hand. I'm very disappointed in what came of the 3rd installment of Spidey, which as far as I'm concerned was the best nerdy franchise out right now, but I guess after this pieceof crap the only thing that's left that hip and nerdy is the Batman series, correct me if I'm wrong. [Yeah, they may put out another superman, and (e:matthew) will disagree with me, but that movie was dull].

I thought the movie was well paced, but the scenes that would have looked far better on the cutting room floor outweighed the scense that were compelling and fascinating by about 10 to 1 (rough estimate, don't' quote me). There was some really good scenes (ok, only 1 comes to mind, but none of the charm of the previous films made it to the edition, and I can't understand why.

You know that brief manky and uncozy feeling you go when you watched our soon to be Dark Lord of the Sith, now whiny Jedi brat trade love pats with his poo poo on the veranda? Well Rami managed to stretch that feeling out for about a solid 30 minutes near the end of the film.

I heard that McGuire didn't want to do Spidey movies anymore past this one, and that maybe they were killing the series. They wrapped up a lot of live plots by the end of this film, and they could do another, but after seeing that crud I don't' care if they do. Especially after the hot steaming popping on that the best Spidey villain receives be becoming a bad plot device at the end of the film.

Ok, my rant is over. Hopefully I haven't detracted anything from your predestined movie going experience. Sorry it had to come to spoilerish material, but I had to get it out.


I missed you peeps...

Don't refer to Yvonne as a thing
metalpeter - 04/30/07 18:08
Isn't that the star wars Battle Cruiser or something like that. Oh yeah (e:imk2) is cute to. But you know it would have been funny if you got like 20 comments all about star wars and nothing about her.
jason - 04/30/07 13:22
What do they call that thing? A Star Destroyer?

Category: family
So uh, I'm at another birthday party. this time its for Del's daughter Chloe. She slept most of the time but all the other kids had a good time.

Cookie monster showed up... couldn't find Del anywhere or else I'm sure he'd of gotten a picture with him too. Ok Del is inside the suit! His time inside consisted mainly of freaking out babies except for the cute on in the green shirt) and getting harassed by adults. Yeah I told del that his pic would be on the interweb seconds after he donned that outfit

Ah cookie monster. I am reminded once of being 16 and asked to play santa clause for a filthy litter of children. I was the worst santa ever. I sounded like John Lovitz's Master Thesbian charecter. Ever see kids cry on santa's lap?
mrdeadlier - 04/06/07 11:47
ok dude, it's time for you to update your blog. i'm sick of looking at my father-in-law grinning on my lap.
mrmike - 02/24/07 16:33
That has the makings of a fine t shirt slogan. I feel Del's pain. I had to be Johnny Bravo at a Bisons game in '05. You get a mixed grill of reaction.
knife - 02/24/07 16:26
saddly delicious.
i'm stealing that from you.

API
Category: nerd
It's no mystery that Paul is the super fantastic and it's hard to even stay in his wake without falling over sometimes, but I have to say for being some who's directly under the brunt of it it's perdy outstanding to behold.

So, I hate blogs, which you'd know if you read any of my first few, but um, I like people, so that's why i post here.

I'd never do a blog on my own, but my collegue and good friend Paul has writen some perdy darn sweet bloggin' software that I"m sure you're all aware of, but that's not much news.

I have owned enknot.com and some real server space for quite some time and haven't done anything with it since I was really green at all this stuff when I bought it, but I've been turning over a new leaf.

I plan to do a lot of stuff with the site but I won't flap my jaws until I have something to show, speaking of, I figured if my site was gonna have a blog I would just use this one, so I have. (e:paul) 's got an API up there to the left w/ the turtle and such and I figured I'd pop it on my site for good mesure.

Yeah, seems maybe kinda lazy, and sometimes I feel like he's got too many people riding on his shirt tails, but the way I figure it if he puts something out there to be used, it's for reason. Since I'm back there too I try to be as much of a help as i can, so hopefully someone using this chunk of functionality from his site will be worth while to helping make the site better, and the traffic I generate (if my page and (e:ejtower) 's page ever get done) will add to the fun here too...

If you have your own site and a journal here, help him out and use this api, he wrote it for you! Least that's how I figure it.

Ok the sabers are on in under an hour and there's much preperation to be done.

Well actually, I've had mine up for close to a year. I should have launched it with more fanfare!!

here's the site :::link:::
lilho - 02/22/07 22:11
going to ny is out of the question, since i am now sick as fuck, as it was fucking cold there and then had to be w/o my car for two days and walked about a 6 miles yesterday in the cold to get more sick. plus, ny makes me way to broke... i know you have the world's smallest violin, and i can hear it, and it's pissing me off.
jenks - 02/22/07 21:16
That reminded me... I meant to see if "my" domain name is available for purchase, but it says "Safari can’t open the page “http://www.alexis.com/” because it can’t find the server “www.alexis.com”

What does that mean? It can't find the server... does that mean the site doesn't exist? Can I invent it? I find it hard to believe that it's not taken. www.alex.com gives me the same message. Mylastname.com is for sale for $2000. alexmylastname.com does the same "could not find the server". And jenks.com is some town in oklahoma.
mrmike - 02/22/07 19:45
I've been working with it for my crappy adelphia.net site, but I need to get back to giving it a more serious go.
paul - 02/22/07 19:11
Thanks for checking it out enknot. It seriously has been out since like 2004 and no one has used it besides twisted.
metalpeter - 02/22/07 18:47
"lets Go Buffalo"
"Lets Go Buffalo"
