Griffis Sculpture Park
Today me and (e:libertad) went to Griffis Sculpture Park which is near Eliictoville. It is just this massive park with trails and all along the trails there are these awesome sculptures, and then there are open areas that have like bigger huge ones. It is really hard to follow around kinda cuz seriuslyu there are at least 15 spots where the path splits into three differnt paths and it is hard to try and keep track of all the ones you went down already and which ones you didn't. I am sure we didn't see it all. Towards the end we got all the way back down thi sone hill and then saw a sign for a maze sculpture which i really wanted to see so we had to trek all the way back but it was relaly fun. It was kinda rainy like in a misty way so we were pretty wet and muddy when we were done but it was nice cuz it was still warm and also so there were really almost like noone else there. It was kinda crazy to be in this huge like park sanctuary and be alone. There is a five dollar entrance fee per person which is soooo worth it. I think a lot of the time it is an honor system though cuz when we were leaving there was noone ther eto take money just like a mahcine thing. It has sooo many scultpures, over 200 i guess.

My favorites were this one with all these huge people sclutputes around a lake and one was one the ground with like bushes growing over it and ic oudln't deicde if that was part of the look or it fell down. I also like tihs like castle one you could climb up that was like an optical illusion like you couldn't figure out how to get up even though it was just ladders and steps but it seeme dliek you were goidng down instead of up. It was really cool.

ALl in all i really recommend everyone go there, it was super dupa cool. Afterwards we went to the Elciotville brew pub for dinner whihc was not so good. I had a double peppercorn crusted hamburger with mushrooms, roasted red pepper, and blue cheese. It was HUGE, like insane huge bigger than my head. But itwasn't amazing and the homemade chiops thta came with it were not all that. I was not super impressed with th eplace. AND I WAS SO FREAKIN THIRSTY BUT THER WAS NO WAITNRESS TO BE FOUND> i had finished my first iced tea in like two seconds and she seriuosly never came back after our food was there and the stuff i got was kinda salty so i couldn't not enjoy it without a dirnk. I was tyring to slurp my empty glass as loud as possibel to draw ateentino but noone came until we were done and she brought the check. it really ruined it for me. I was dying of tihrst. I don't tihnk i would go back> Eliictoville though is really cute and I guess they are an awesome palce to be for oktoberfest.

and the bills became 4 and 0. All in all a great day!

I have heard great things about that place, I even remember a post slightly of I believe (e:ladycroft) and (e:theecarey) adventure there years ago maybe I'll have to look that up. As good of a post as this is it would be really good if there where pictures taken.
lilho - 09/29/08 00:50
wow, i will never eat at that dumb way too salty and big homemade chips place where waitress never gives you a drink refill.


since when do you like the bills, and do you wear zuba pants when they play??? if not, you are no true fan.

The radio told me that 30 Rock won big. That makes sense to me.

Yummy Yummy Fondue Tummy
So I went out with (e:amanda) who I had not seen in way too long! We went to buttwerwood on main st in williamsivlle and had the chocolate fondue for 2! IT WAS SO FREAKIN BIG AND YUMMY!!! It had banana, carmalized banas, marshmallows, pretzels, strawberrys, pineapples, blueberries, three kinds of cookies hmm maybe something else too. It was soooo tasty and it was sooo good to see (e:amanda) again l. All in all a great night!

Funny story, she was telling me that she put an estrip bumper sticker on her fridge and her mom took it down cuz she thought it was like a stirp club. Funny that her mom thought she would put a strip club bumper sticker on her fridge and funny that estrip does sound liek strip club.

Ok that's all for now chadi
tinypliny - 09/18/08 21:45
What I want to know is why wasn't your No.#1 stalker invited to this fondue extravaganza?? Hmmm?


@(e:metalpeter): LOL, you crack me up!
metalpeter - 09/18/08 19:25
If I had the money I would love to open a strip club. But I would do it a little bit Differently it would be aimed at couple or guys and girls in groups. There would be One huge stage on one end the guys would strip and on one end the girls would strip If the people could agree on the same music they would strip at the same time other wise it would go guy girl guy girl and so on. The other thing I would set up is that Private dances you could get a girl or a guy (doesn't matter if you are gay , bi or stright as long as the dancer doesn't mind) or you could get a guy and a girl or couples could go back there. Of course two people would cost more. Who knows I might even hit the stage or at least try to and If I couldn't go through with it have some fun with it since I'm the owner.
lilho - 09/18/08 10:53
do you know how many times people thought i was a stripper because of that damn thing? a lot. but, i love it, (not people thinking i am a stripper), but i love the bumper sticker and i'm keepin it real and lovin the blo!

Regis Philbin
Don't know why I haven't really felt like writing lately though I feel like I have so much to write about but this needed to be written about. Watching Regis and Kelly this morning they had Shannon Daugherty from 90210 and the new 90210 on and like it was hilar watching reeg try to be so exicted, like this is an icon coming on our show, and pretending he was so into 90210. Kelly i could believe loved it in her day but def not reeg. he is such a good faker!
tinypliny - 09/05/08 22:54
You have got to appreciate good fakers. They rule the planet.
No. They seriously do.

But the fact that you detected he was perhaps fakin' it points to the fact that maybe he is not such a good faker as you might like to think!
