So first of all for anyone that thanked me a Happy Birthday thanks. So today is my real birthday But yesterday I went out to dinner at Fridays and then went to the penguins game. The dinner and Penguins game where both pretty good. I just wish that who ever won (Penguins in this case) would have done so with a clear victory. In overtime the Penguins scored a goal but the stick looked like a high stick. To me the first replay it looked high for sure and no goal but on the second one it looked legal. I had a good time and the funny thing is my boss was at the game and in the same section as me.






































































































I had a really good time and the ticket I bought was pretty good, or atleast to me it was. I was 14 rows up in pretty much center ice ara and it really makes following the game much better then being at one of the ends. I will admit that I wish I was doing something cool on my real birthday and that I could come up with a Part 3 but that isn't going to happen so..... But I did get to have some fun and shovel and I admit I have no idea where to put the snow anymore.







Then In the spirit of snow I guess I could put up a few more shots of the Snow the two of the College are from today, the other ones are from after the previous post of mine about the storm.





























Well I forgot what my next point was, maybe it was the great time I had last night, it really was a great time. Oh yeah I'm not going to get into the Happy Holidays vs. Christmas debate but in case I don't get to say this on the site on the day or the eve since I'm working, I hope everyone has a great holiday. Oh and hopefully lots of (e:peeps) go do the same on New Years and do so by going to "The Party" and yes even the people who don't post that much or forgot about (e:strip). So Enjoy the holidays everyone and I hope that none of you where to bored by this and if you where then I doubt you are still reading be safe and stay warm.

First of all I will admit I have been thinking about trying out the old Pros and Cons Idea for some time and finally found a good topic to do it on the snow, we shall see how it works out. But 1st of all I missed Jeff Foxworthy last night I was tired oh well. Second if you are not tired of the snow here is a link to a story on Yahoo about the snow
. These pictures are not mine but are from Yahoo I think they are pretty interesting Is snow a regular thing there, I just think it rains a lot.















Here is the slideshow

As some of you might have noticed this isn't a normal list of things that are positive and other things that are negative. It is seeing something that is positive and that it has a Negative side also. I think life is often that way. For example if you go to the Galleria mall and get lucky as someone pulls out and you have to only walk 10 feet then what about the next 7 cars that can't find a spot. Or say you are walking down the street and find $50 well that is your lucky day but when that person who lost it goes to check out and doesn't have enough for the food in there house and there kids go hungry then they aren't so lucky. I need another good example but it will most likely be only an ok one. Here is a multiple teared one: On Friday I had the day off (good), but with all the snow I had to shovel a lot (bad) but it was good exercise (good) but I would rather have been watching movies or porn or something (bad), but if I wouldn't have been off then my mother would have been stuck in the house (bad) and after the hockey game or the next morning shoveling would have been very tough (bad). Hopefully I will in the future post more of these and maybe the humor side will be a little bit better we shall see. Hope what ever is left of this weekend is good for everyone. I have a feeling I will have to shovel some more later today. Assuming things work out the way they are supposed to Part 2 of the Birthday I am taking my self to the penguins game on Monday. Stay safe and warm.

So I was off from work yesterday and here are some the pictures from the storm that I took, and lucky for me my Camera survived.

So fire fox and my computer and (e:strip) don't want to work together. So I had a great time at the sabres game that was a birthday gift. Since they don't want to work and every time it is so issue I give up if you care about it at all read it on my myspace page.

or just the pictures



Besides most of you would find the sablere boaring. One thing to mention tonight the Jeff Foxworhty roast is on comedy central , when it is that late at night is is usaly uncensored so it should be pretty good like the pam anderson was last night.

[b]EDIT: I'm going to try the my media part again and hope it doesn't freeze up again and see if I can add the pictures down below. [b]





























Well now it works So I Guess I'll try adding a few pictures that where close to the end of the game.

































How very odd now everything works fine. It is time to go get my pictures from Walgreens (not that I feel like doing it but I think I may need some snacks anyways). IN case I didn't say Part 2 will be on Monday when I go to see the Penguins. That reminds me on Jan 1st the Winter Classic takes Place in Chicago that would be really amazing to go to (no $$$ anyways) and there is a Buffalo Connection for those that like to keep your hockey local Patrick Kane who plays for the Blackhawks is from the Buffalo area. Well hope everyone has/had a great weekend.

First of all I'm off of work today because I have a good boss, so if you some how wind up reading this thanks. I was nice to sleep in today, it really was. Then once I got up I got to go out in the pretty snow. Yes I'll admit shoveling it isn't the fun, well ok some of it is fun but not to much. I think it looked pretty good out. Then a bit latter I went up to the bank. Now maybe it is just me but it seemed like it wasn't snowing as much on Elmwood but maybe it is just because more people where out. then later today (couple hours really) I will be heading out into the snow again, I'm going to the Sabres Vs. Kings game tonight. So I hoping to post pictures of both on Saturday, then on Monday I'm going to the Penguins game, that should be a lot of fun. Yes I want the Sabres to win both games and hope the play great in both games, but at least on Monday if the lose I like the other team also. Sorry there are no pictures of the (e:peep) holiday dinner. I had the energy and was going to come over here and post that I was going, however I was invited to a dinner at my mother house. I thought that i might have time to go to both, but the time slide by before I even knew it, I think dinner wound up being later here than I had thought. Well I hope everyone is able to enjoy the snow as long as it is here and has a great weekend.
