Video Chat With e:lilho
Category: peeptalk
Last night I got to video chat with (e:lilho,40823) on ichat. I am not sure why her pics didn't come out - but I took my own.

We were never able to start a video chat with more than one person, although it says you can chat with up to three people.

image

Of course, some pics are more important than others. This one is for (e:mike)

image

We have had so many comments this week! I took this pictures yesterday evening. Thanks you guys for making this site successful.

115 comments and no drama going on? now that is crazy.
anne - 08/30/07 16:08
i've used ichat to video chat with 2 people at the same time, that's weird that it didn't work.
lilho - 08/30/07 13:02
ah ha!
mike - 08/30/07 12:40
aww thanks for the pic! I miss those!
paul - 08/30/07 10:23

I love having a super fast point and shoot camera.

(e:enknot) also pointed out this is the new vision for Panos which I have to say looks pretty nice.

In an unrelated asian restaurant...

It started like this: We waited like 5 minutes to be seated in the restaurant but it was full accept for the patio in blazing sun with no one on it - or this one five person tablet that was empty in the back corner.

We ask for a table, the dude says, "How many?" I say, "three" and he says, "no table." I say, "What about that one?" and he says, "it is for five." I say, "Oh it is reserved, he says, "no it isn't, but would you like to sit outside?"

Now if I was a rational human being I could have just gave in and said no thank you and told him I was takig my business elsewhere or insisted on being seated there . Instead the sicilian in me took over and I said, "Then I will not be eating here and proceeded to leave while spitting on the inside of the glass door. Maybe, I do need anger management classes.

Its better than the time I threatened to burn down a hotel in downtown phoenix and the police had to come. Man, I used to be such a freak.
imk2 - 08/30/07 18:24
yeah we should have spit on her and not on the door.
tinypliny - 08/30/07 10:13
imk2, we totally should have done "the aggravated spit" that day!!
tinypliny - 08/30/07 10:10
Don't ever to Betty's during peak time. You might want to kill 'em all.

Oooh, the spitting was such a cool touch. :) Hats off to you!
leetee - 08/30/07 00:18
Wow... Paul... i promise, if you ever come over to our house again, you can sit anywhere... honest.

Terry's Birthday
Category: birthdays
We went to the El Caporal for (e:terry) to have his 28th birthday dinner. He freakin' loves Mexican Food.

image

Their shrimp dinner was pretty good at cheap. The margarittas were only $2.
image

I love the mormon in the hood, they are so cute.
image

The love joy pool is such a crazy style. It looked like that since I was a kid. I don't know if it is really a pool or not anymore.
image

And yes, (e:terry) did get his xBox 360 elite along with Viva Pinata.
image

metalpeter - 08/30/07 18:04
Late Happy Birthday. I have been to that place twice and by mistake got the same thing both times it was very good. The funny thing is both times I went the people I went with didn't know how to explain what flavors those colored pops or drinks where so I didn't get one. Terry does look like he is going to go do something with that xbox is Viva Pinata the same as the Cartoon or are they unrelated?
lilho - 08/29/07 11:17
ummm terry looks like hes about to run off and do something indecent with that thing!
leetee - 08/29/07 10:06
Yay! Glad (e:Terry) got a pressie he loves... and had good mexican.

El Chaporal rocks.

Here's the reviews on Bill Rapaport's site -- :::link:::

El Palenque is also very good.
951 Niagara Falls Blvd.

Elmwood Arts Festival
Category: festivals
The elmwood arts festival is great. Well, at least when you don't live there. I remember living on Lafayette and Elmwood, the stage was right outside our bedroom window. It was insane to wake up to testing 1, 2, 3.

image

I really go just for the artichokes. They are so good, I have a hard time deciding what kind to get. Does anyone know if these people ahev a restaurant somewhere? I think they are caled "Artichoke French."
image
fellyconnelly - 08/29/07 00:00
loved me some artichoke! French!
leetee - 08/28/07 17:04
saw the artichoke french at the lewsiton art festival, too. i was too chicken to try it. besides, i am trying to be good and stay away from fried things.

oh, did you and (e:Terry) find (e:Brit) at the elmwood art fest that day?
lauren - 08/28/07 14:57
Felly and I had the Artichoke French there and it was fabulous!

Basra Eats and Some Other Stuff
Category: pets
Basra loves the occasional snack plum or fruit. Usually he just eats greens so he gets really excited.

::Download Flash Video::



About 4 years we made soap. (e:matthew) claims he was not present. Somehow his effigy made it into this soap. You can clearly see his penis floating above us, lol.
image

I cut my hair off. Before I also cut my beard I looked like a terrorist.
image

On the not so tasty front, (e:enknot) found this bird on Main Street the other day. I couldn't not take a picture.
image

Last week Nameless Bitch arrived and found an apartment over on Minnesota.

Missing Image ;(


lilho - 08/28/07 21:31

leetee - 08/28/07 17:05
You mean (e:Brit) was not brave enough to move in with (e:PMT) this year?
