procrastination
i've been missing in action a while now I guess. No real reason really, just like everything else. I was doing really well going to the gym regularly and all that fell apart, haven't been for a couple months now!!! Haven't done much of the tons of work I want to get done on my house, and today while watching the Bills game I meant to do some xmas wrapping but to no avail as I was too drawn into watching live fantasy updates....then went drinking. There goes my day off. I need an anti procrastinationist or something...someone to hit me with a taser when I'm being unproductive maybe?

Hell yes. That is all.

Eh? Eh.

That's really weird. They've been including "digital copies" with more and more releases. This seems a much more viable route to stick with.

Not only is it out on Blu-ray, I saw that now they are starting to pre-load movies with laptops and it is the first one :::link:::

Kudos to the Bills!
Category: sports
Just a quick post to give props to the Buffalo Bills, who have started 4-0 for the first time since 1992 (our second Super Bowl season). There are only 3 other undefeated teams in the league right now, and one plays tonight, so a big deal it is indeed. We're not only ahead of the Patriots in the division but tied for first in the entire league! Now to beat Arizona next week and take a 5-0 record into the bye week. (crosses fingers)

Yes the 4-0 start is great and I'm glad the Bills are doing good. But there is one thing that doesn't get mentioned in that 4-0 and that is why haven't played any intradivisonal games. We have 6 of those to go and those are the games that matter the most and really say who is the better team and who goes to the playoffs. That is why the Jags beating Indy (was that last week) was so important and that is why The Redskins winning Could be Huge in the NFC. The season is early and so far the bills are doing good but before I get to happy I want to see how they do When they play New England and the Jets.

Sorry. You can take the man out of Pittsburgh, but you can't take the 'burgh out of the man.

Steelers? You live in Buffalo, you're not allowed to have anyone else as your first team!
drew - 09/29/08 11:08
One of those other teams will lose tonight, restoring the Stillers to their rightful place atop the AFC North.

Here's hoping the Bills lose to the Steelers in the AFC championship!

I hate Apple
Category: phone
I've always hated Apple, but won't get into that now.
I am writing because I'm cut off from society because my iPhone is FUCKED!!! I open iTunes and it says a new version of iPhone is available, 2.02. So I click to Update. After like 5 minutes it says an unknown error has occured...update not installed. Now it only has an option to Restore, meaning I lose all data. GREAT!!!!! So I angrily choose that option. Well guess what, same deal. Now all I can do with my iPhone is turn it on to a screen that shows a USB cable going into an iTunes logo! wow!
tiburon1724 - 09/01/08 22:21
Scheduled an appointment with a "Genius" at the Apple Store. He hooked it to one of their computers, performed the update with no problem. Apparently this is fairly common - so if anyone runs into it, just connect the iPhone to another computer and perform the update from there.
tinypliny - 09/01/08 20:03
So what happened next??

219 and Casino
Been seeing stories on TV today about landslides and such around the 219 extension. My question is.....why are we building this road?? It goes nowhere! Roads like this just help sprawl and urban flight progress. In a county that's basically bankrupt, how are we undergoing such a large and useless project? There must be background I'm unfamiliar with.

Second, I hope the NIMBYs are happy that we'll now have an ugly steel frame sitting on the Seneca land downtown for God knows how long. They say it's due to the economy....that's a line of crap, their casinos are faring just fine. They obviously backed down from the court ruling and won't admit it. Prideful bunch. I do believe the city should have made an agreement where the casino would be built without entertainment, hotel operations or restaurants so it could draw people to the area while still offering some benefit to downtown as well, but since the deal was done, let's bring the landmark building and roll the dice. The conservative nature of the people in WNY really pisses me off and it's very obvious how the area became so decayed. I want to run for mayor and kick everyone's ass!!!
