My New Workspace
Category: work

I love my new apple free environment. It really almost the only thing I like about work right now.

The rotten and noisy dell keyboards we have on lesser privileged buildings in the campus are reason enough to hold on to that one.

paul - 09/15/10 09:10
It seems rediculous to replace a fully functional keyboard because of brand identity.

jason - 09/15/10 08:27
Dang, Tiny! Getting all technical on him!

tinypliny - 09/15/10 03:43
What's the brand of the keyboard?

Seabar Lunch
Category: food

The lunches at seabar downtown Buffalo keep getting better. There lunch menu expanded like the dinner menu did. (e:samathon86) and I ended up on the new clubby looking side this time. The ambiance was pretty chic for lunch.

man, I always get a tummy ache when I try miso soup. That and the smoky flavour always seemed a little fishy to me. Turns out that is true. Oh well. Good bye miso soup.

jbeatty - 09/15/10 08:13
The smokey flavor is from the bonito. Which is not vegetarian tiny!!! I went there for lunch on Friday. It was such a great meal. It almost made me miss working there.

tinypliny - 09/15/10 03:42
I wanted to like Miso soup but I am put off by that smoky flavour it always seem to have.

Mistaken Identity
Category: religion

I have a feeling non-mormons might mistake me for one today with my tie and backpack.

But you are missing the little name tag, This gives me an idea. You should walk around like this but with a book that isn't theirs or maybe , even have like multple realigous books or something wacky

tinypliny - 09/16/10 19:12
I would cross the street to be on the same side. haha

heidi - 09/14/10 00:32
Did anyone cross the street to avoid you?

tinypliny - 09/13/10 17:16
Not really. They don't have the sexy ooze that you obviously do.

james - 09/13/10 14:41
The Mormon missionary look is tres chic this season.

jim - 09/13/10 13:00
Ah! The facial hair would have to go ;)

jbeatty - 09/13/10 12:21
Where's your bike Elder Visco?

janelle - 09/13/10 11:45
Haha, totally the Mormon missionary look. Get you a Book of Mormon to carry around and you're set!

Little Rock City
Category: hiking

We went back to little rock city. This time we got totally crazy and were jumping between rocks with 20ft+ drops. At one point we were able to jump between 3 rocks. I wish (e:jacob) could have been there. He would have loved it.

(e:terry) is insane. I will try and climb just about an

Below is a major dropoff like 40+ feet down

Sadly, this time we found a clean cut area

(e:keith) jumping to the second rock. I am so sad that this video is sideways. Someday I should edit and rotate it. I tried to compile ffmpeg to enable the vfilter rotation option but it did not work.

trying to convince Casey to jump.

(e:keithT) posing as a tough guy

I tracked our whole journey on google's My Tracks. I wanted to be able to return to the part I was too afraid to jump on.

The rest are caseys photos from (e:keithT)'s facebook.

paul - 01/01/11 21:53
I think this was one of the best days of my life.

KeithT - 09/13/10 12:18

Real Iron Work on 219 Near Springville
Category: art

I am not sure what the name really is but I thought "Real Iron Work" based on the sign below. I should have snagged the location but I forgot.

On our way back to Little Rock City yesterday we stopped at that iron works gallery on the 219. They have some pretty awesome pieces. I wonder if the Griffis inspired them, or if they are the same people.
