I'll admit I had no Idea she was/is gay. I have seen some of her stand up comedy and it was pretty funny and in the stuff I saw there was no clues. I have seen some women who it is part of there act but the stuff I seen of hers I didn't see it.

janelle and I got mad at the TW rate increase and then quit it. I signed up for verizon online (or at least I think I did) but there hasn't been a phone call, email, or anything, so I wonder if the sign-up worked. If it didn't we will sign up through you.

Not in the city yet. Word is that the areas that are going to get FIOS first will be the areas that receive aerial lines - They aren't too keen on trying to run all sorts of cable under the city right away. Underground lines can be extremely costly..I think its mostly outlying areas, but if you message me your address I can check.
Kenmore would get it sooner than Buffalo though..
FIOS internet and TV packages are not all that much more expensive, monthly, than time warner cable. With the TV package - there are 40 HD channels with room on the fiber optic cable for hundreds more - all uncompressed. You have to rent a box every month for each tv that you have. (you'll need a converter box come February when everything goes digital anyways)
Installation usually does not cost anything....
The problem is if you have old coaxial wiring in your house - it has to be replaced or there is no point. That can be costly....
Installation, incidentally, costs verizon about $1,500 per house. You don't pay any of that.
OK I'm going to stop now - I went to a training today and i'm full of useful facts.

Got to be soon. The verizon building on Elmwood is all about the Fios. Wish I could have it at my apt.

Wo Paul.
How much does FiOS cost installation/monthly/hidden fees? Do you have any rollout information for Kenmore? I talked to some dude in a mall last December and he said 'any day now' but it turned out to be a shameful web of lies.

OMG, do they have it in the city yet? I want it the day it is available. I want a business account. I already have that one in Amherst but I want it at my house.

addendumLast post I asked 'why is it snowing?'
and it was because estrip told me so. I didn't realize it was REALLY snowing!
And the best thing about cookies that taste more like sweet bread is that you don't feel bad about eating them for breakfast.
Also Waking Life? A movie that doesn't require you to be stoned. It is a movie that requires you to be tripping. Or maybe I just felt like I was.
Off to Springville!

haha, yes that movie is super trippy. Cool though. I've watched it a few times, and I always find myself thinking "wait... did I just smoke pot and I don't know it?"

So was the movie good or bad? Or more importantly, did it have a happy ending?? I only bother to watch the ones with happy endings (she shamelessly announces...)

Ya, it constantly monitors the national weather forcast to see if snow if on the horizon and when it is, it snows on estrip. Same with the "It think its raining, you should bring an umbrella" message.

beer and cookies?why is it snowing?
today i made cookies AND beer.
And by cookies - i mean sweet bread cakes. since i used wheat flour and applesauce its not very cookie like.
And by beer I mean I brewed a red ale and added butterscotch schnapps. Its called a 'Wee Heavy'. how exciting.
Also ate at Sahara Grill. Food was ok (we tried new things that I couldn't even begin to remember much less pronounce!) but it was cold as hell and they sat us right in front of the big screen tv so we watched the simpsons while we ate.
Now we are going to watch waking life. I hear you need to be stoned to watch this movie.

I did not care for Waking Life at all. But I will save my criticism for priase for Wee Heavy. That sounds delicious.

While I'm sure it would add to the experience in some way, getting stoned will not be necessary.
That is assuming that you have any stomach at all for philosophical discourse. And maybe some patience for some of the more outlandish musings on reality...
Anyway, enjoy!

I like Sahara grill too but seriously it is always so empty and cold. They must do a lot of takeout.

the suite was amazing... i'd put a pix up but I havent had time to do so. I don't even know how to work my damn blackberry. Tonight i will try to post about the game...
Hope you are there having a great time, I'm a little Jealous Have a great time.
I sat in that box once but when it was Choice One Communications. If it is anything like it used to be then there is free drinks also. Pretty much anything you want. Coffee with Kailua...Done. Make sure you save room for dessert after the half if you are a dessert person!
You need a buddy to go with, right? One that maybe needs to sign up for internet?
Now you can easily estrip on the go.
Inside a suite would be the only way I'd go. I worked those night games last year, not fun. Bundle up anyway for the hike from the parking lot.
