Yahoo Underground
Category: art
Ok so I admit I don't have a link. I will also admit I don't have the video. I tried to download the video off of yahoo but couldn't. I use Yahoo for mail and to read the news. They have this section called "The Undrground". Today they had a video about "art cars" I think in AZ going to a museum but I didn't see the museum maybe there where other videos I didn't see. The video was interesting and did show a couple of really cool looking cars. When I first went there I was looking for pictures that I could post here but all they had was video. If anyone else uses Yahoo you might want to check it out. Ok so I thought why not check out the site again and now there are more options so here is a link or at least a web address



Ok I found a few pictures hopefully you like them. Not to many just a few.

The thing with cars like these is that video or seeing them in person is much better because you get to all the little details. There is also this cool double bodied bus but I couldn't find a good picture of it.

I think the first and last one are the same car and is called "The Cathedral". The Pictures I got from there Flckr site I think. I really should look on the web for more "Art Cars".

Taste Update
Category: event
Last night the bisons lost but I still had a good time. There was this guy named Ruber Boy who performed there. One of his tricks is fitting through a tennis Racket. When I got home from the game I did see Metallica perform one song and then I watched the other two on line this morning.

I had a good time at the taste of Buffalo for the second day in a row. I wanted to see Beatle Magic but I knew that I didn't have the energy to stay for them. My legs where starting to get tired. In terms of (e:peeps) I did see (e:Enknot) before I could say anything we passed each other. Then on my way out I ran into (e:Carolinian) and had a nice chat and he was going to meet (e:Vincent) . Would have been cool to hang out with all four of them but I needed to go home and sit.

I think the name of the band was the Nickel City Pimp Choair

All in All I had a great time over the weekend I hope everyone else did to and espicaly those of you who went to the taste I hope you had a good time and tried some new things. I'm in denial that I have to work on monday since the weekend went by so fast.

It doesn't surprise me that they don't allow Cameras inside. I know at "Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame" now called "The Rock Hall" they don't either. They say that by not letting people take pictures they are given more things. That being said I'm looking forward to your pictures.
mrdeadlier - 07/09/07 13:02
Hey man, I went to the EMP yesterday per your suggestion, thanks. I took some pics that I'll upload when I get home. Unfortunately they don't allow cameras inside, so they're all of the building itself. The whole thing was pretty great though -- if you ever make it out to Seattle you should go there. Just make sure you give yourself enough time. I only had 2 hrs and they had to kick me out!

Taste Live Earth
Category: events
Ok so starting tonight around 11pm I think there are these concerts all over the world called live earth. I know it is some huge event with all kinds of bands and that NBC, Sundance, Bravo and not sure who else is carring covarage of it. Tonights coverage I think is on one of the candian stations I think MSN and maybe someone else is showing it on the web, for you music fans. Before I forget (e:enknot) mentioned a party on Saturday night Maybe I'll go to that after the bisons game. but starting at 11am is the Taste of Buffalo. That should be a good time. I know that now all the places have to have one healthier alternative. I know that the portions are small but if they waren't how would you get to try differnent things. It should be a great time. If any of you see me there and you want your picture taken just ask, cause often in events like that I forget. Hope everyone has a great weekend. I also think there is some rally in Niagara Falls also.

Taste Day 1
Category: event
So first things first I saw the lovely (e:Beast) and (e:Libertad) at The Taste of Buffalo. Only problem is at the time I was moving quicker then I could react so By the time I knew who it was I went passed them. But I have to give them props. They where doing what more people should do and they where off to the side talking as opposed to the people who just stand and talk and cause a traffic jam. Towards when I was leaving I ran into my sis and she was telling me there is some other festival up by the libary Not sure why I didn't think to go see what those tents where. If you wana have some fun watch the girls at The Steer, they are hot and love to dance.


image
They gave out these strange chips and they tasted really good to.


image
image
As I was leaving they where firing up the engine on this car wish I would have got a shot of that.

image
image
Good thing they stoped tearing this down but it would have been funny if they didn't stop.

image
image
image
image
interesting small neck Tattoo


image
image
I want to check out on sunday You can't go in with food and bye the time I wanted to go I had drinks.

Fat Bob's Texas Chili was very good, but a little beanie but some people love beans I would eat it again.


image
Ton or is than Tandori I forgot the name of the place and spice anyways it was very good with rice and chicken.


image
image
image
image
image
I'm not sure if the hotness of these ladies translates on here but I hope it does.


image
image
image
image
Andersons Blue Berry Ice was nice, untill I drop my spoon but I still ate it and still enjoyed it.


image
image
image
image
Sahara's Grill or something like that has a tasty Kabob, there is some name I can't pronounce.


image
image
Great place to get a good cupcake.


image
image

image
this apple crisp I got from Steer (the hot dancing ladies) I was going to use the rest of my tickets on what might be the best deal for 3 tickets at lousies you can get a Hamburger so it might be kinda boaring but so what.

These last 3 pictures are bonus pictures. The motorcycle was on my way home. The two wooden cut outs are on Elmwood in front of nextar and have explainations of them next to them.

Couple side notes. Even though they don't advertise it there is music there so you don't only have to eat. In fact I might want to check out this beatles tribute band on sunday. don't forget there is some literacy fest or something like that near the libary. I think it is where they usaly have thursday at the square. If you need a party to go to (e:Enknot) post about one that sounds like it will be a lot of fun. I think my lame ass will be at home. Don't be lame like me go out tonight and do something. I will be at the Bisons game having a good time. I may have seen (e:chico) not sure if it was him or not speaking of that I saw a few people who looked kinda famlar but that I don't know. Why is that so many don't follow traffic laws when walking. down on the right back on your right just like if you where in a car. Don't stop and look at the food on the other side of the street you will see it when you are on that side of the street pay attention to your side. If you want to stop fine but do so out of the way of traffic. I don't understand why someone doesn't Yell out those rules over a bull horn. It would be a good idea. yes the point is to have fun but you are in a group setting so keep them feet moving even if it is slowly. In terms of Live earth I did see two good performances by AFI (caught the end of it) and The Foo Fighters. This morning I saw Genesis. But I think I missed Metallica, sey they where supposed to be on the UK one. Hopefully there is a way to see them again or maybe even online. Well off to the Bisons game. If I didn't say sorry for not seeing you peeps I saw then sorry.

HBO Voyeur
Category: voyeur


The above website is interesting. On HBO in demand you can watch some of the apartments. Also on HBO's website you can get a taste of what it is like to be a voyeur. From what I have seen so far none of it is sexaul but I havn't watched all the rooms yet. On the one I just watched it over a few days time. Some guys are investaging this guy and the end is interesting. The one thing that is strange is there is no sound so you have no ideas what people are saying but that is how it is to be a real voyeur. If you have some time to kill it is an interesting site. Hopefully I'll have enough time with the holiday to check out some more of the buildings.

I think there is something voyeuristic in the web itself. Youtube is a great example of this. Yes I know that most of the videos wind up being shows for people but some of them aren't. I know there have been a few video blogs that have really taken off (lonely girl or something like that) and had a lot of followers. Blogs are kinda voyeuristic also. I don't mean writtening them, I mean for the reader. Here it is a little different now that you can leave a comment. But you can still look into someone elses life and they don't know. I havn't done enough reserch to see how HBO will continue this series. I don't know if they will run it on HBO at all. Maybe they will have a special on it. But so far it is interesting. Sexualy I don't think of my self as a voyeur but that is kinda bullshit since I watch porn. Yes they do the acting for us and know we are going to watch it but we are still watching them have sex. Granted that is different then sitting up in a tree watching some girl change after her shower. But I think being a voyeur is really all about the watching and it could really be anything. I'm not really sure if "the sport of people watching" counts cause it is kinda a known fact that it goes on at large events but it might be close.

I had more of a point but I kinda lost it somewhere. I hope everyone has a great 4th of July and then that next weekend also. Well atleast better then mine I won't be doing anything. Oh that reminds me of two things HBO has a new documentary about Coma's and this weekend is the taste of Buffalo.
