Sabres Part 2
Category: photos
I have to admit that those 200 level seats are nice. Plus between the periods things get so packed in the food area and bar, that I'm glad I ate before the game. But that being said you have to get the person's attention but they will bring food to your seat, I maybe should try that if I ever get that type of seat for a sabres game again. Well here are more photos from that game......

Sabres Sat. Part 1
Category: photos
So I got to see My 1st Sabres Game of the year the ticket was from work. Those 200 level tickets sure are nice... Plus the Sabres won on a great goal. They changed how the Arena looks a bit. Not sure how viewable the stuff is behind the glass but here are the start of the pictures from Sat....

I wasn't able to get pictures of everything with people eating in front of stuff. I would have also liked to have been there right at 5 so I had time to read everything but I had my Niece's Birthday Party to attend and that was a good time.... Hoping more photos from warm ups the grier thing and the game....

Nachos Grande (from the food place in the 200 level where you can watch events from). Not sure what all the stuff is but I got it with half Chili and half Chicken....
tinypliny - 11/18/10 21:23
What exactly is that pile of food?

Wartorn & Skyline
Category: movies
So Yesterday I went to see skyline. It is an alien movie maybe call it a monster movie not sure. I thought it was pretty cool. If I say what I both liked and kinda didn't like at the same time It would give away way to much of the movie but I had fun watching it.....

HBO showed this Documentary that I watched today (aired on veterans day) Called Wartorn . It is about (PTSD) Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. They had old war footage and interviews and stories of current vets and people serving. Was it interesting yes! Was it disturbing Yes! It was very good though.

It Makes sense though that if you have never killed anyone that doing so could mess you up at some point. It also makes sense that once you are trained (and do it) to kill and fight in a war that it would be hard to turn that off at home. People are creatures of habits and habits are pattern forming.

As a Small example of this there was a wrestler Bill Goldberg. He was talking about getting into Character (He was one of those go out and destroy his opponent type of guy and had some huge winning streak being a beast). He said that he could turn that guy on in about 5 minutes but then when he was done it took him hours to get out of character..... That is just getting pumped up and putting on a show and being someone else not being trained to kill the enemy and defend your self and your fellow solders... Hey some people are fine and do readjust to life normally but this movie wasn't about them. I think it is a must see it is good to get shaken up a bit and get a bit disturbed by things some times......

Happy Veterans Day
Category: holiday
So I decided not to go to Youtube and post songs about war there are a few good ones that might work. I just wanted to Wish all the Veterans a Happy Holiday and get into what the day means to me.

I Work at a company so it isn't a day off like it is for some. There have been many wars and I think these two current ones are a waste and that a lot of people are dying for no reason, that being said others hold the opposite feeling but that isn't what Veterans day is about. Yes at some point those troops that live will be Veterans. Memorial Day is when we remember Solders that died. But for me on or around that day I like to go look at the memorials and big ships and remember that not only did US Soldiers or what ever term you want to use die, but so did the enemy and that is very important to remember but that isn't this holiday. To me Veterans day is about all the people who served in the Armed Forces and are still around. I think that we due owe them gratitude. People join (or where drafted) into the Military for all kinds of different reasons. No matter what those are when your time is finally up and you are done then the Military/Government needs to treat you like how you are supposed to be treated. It is sad how often this isn't the case. It should be a crime if you aren't taken care of properly..... But hey that is just my view.

Happy Veterans day........
metalpeter - 11/13/10 12:09
Government must take care of its veterans!!!!!! Not saying that everyone who comes back needs help but the ones that do must get it.........
paul - 11/12/10 12:55
I agree with you. I find it amazing that people still want to be soldiers when you look at the way so many of the former soldiers are treated.

Odd thoughts today
Category: potpourri
So today I got into a weird mood.... Has this ever happened to you? I was on the bus and saw one of those designer back packs that has a piece of shiny gold or maybe brass. That reminded me of back when I had a Karl Kani shirt that had that metal piece on it, how is one supposed to wash it. Then that reminded me other stuff not sure everything but like different kids dressed differently back in high school. There used to be some deodorant Called Power Stick. I few people from school and it was kinda mind blowing... Well maybe mind blowing isn't the right word but it was odd...

But that also gets me to I saw an add for Glee on Tuesday Night, I guess it is about Bullying. As I try and think back to High School I don't really remember any back then. Yeah my School was small and yeah maybe you had little groups of people but I was kinda known by a bunch of people and kinda on the fringe of how ever you might call those groups, at least from my perspective... Well there is one thing I can think of, off hand but don't remember all the details...

Yes Bullying has been in the News lately with the suicides. But what people don't get is that this movement should have started a long time ago. Most of those school shootings where because the kids where picked on or put into some social circle and where sick of it so they went shooting... The Problem I have with the shootings is that they weren't planed correctly. What I mean is if the metal kids are picked on and they did nothing to deserve it Then if they came in with guns and knew where the people who picked on them where and got them all together then that I could live with. Eye for an Eye right.... But in all these cases they just go after everyone.....

That is true in the Ft. Hood shooting as well. That guy was an Arab so he was put in like a circle of one and then he went nuts...

Now in Bowling for Columbine my favorite part is the Marilyn Manson Interview. It really is. Well now that I'm into movies I did watch a few over the weekend maybe that is part of what has effected my mood. It could also be that (e:JoyBlue) looks as if I have seen her someplace or somewhere before but that happens to me so often when I'm out walking... I think it happens from over the years being on a lot of social networking or free dating sites or some mix of those. But another thing about those that is so odd is that no one really looks like their user picture. Yes Part of it is that some pictures are old and some are new. but women change so much with hair style and cuts and makeup. There are couple Pictures of (e:Theecarey) on facebook that look really good (now I'm not saying she doesn't normally look like that) it is just a different perspective or a light I'm not used to seeing her in. There is a picture of me with (e:ladycroft) and (e:Imk2) at Edgefest where they both look amazing, and I can remember someone commenting about how young they both look. In that picture they both did.... Oh yeah Back to the movies. X-games the movie was pretty good. The Box was wild.. You get a box and can either push a button and someone dies but you get a $1,000,000 now that doesn't sound like a lot but it is set back in time so it was more money then. It gets pretty good I think and reminds me of The Twilight zone in some places with the Humanity Tie in. I also watched Avatar on the small screen and it was still good....

Ah I lost my train of thought so long ago... Oh yeah Friday met up with some ex-employees and current one of where I work... It was a good time. That being said I did see a few pictures on line from Mass Appeal it looked pretty cool.. Fridays sure does make a good Mojito is there any such thing as a bad one. And the server was pretty hot. Plus there was a beavy of hot ladies there as well, the one by the Galleria mall is pretty nice....

Sunday was Football and the quick thing is at least the team is looking better in their losing efforts... I think if they can get it together and get a win they could become good and that might lead to a good season next year?????

I think that is all I got sure I left something out, I do wonder what happened to some people from the HS though.....
metalpeter - 11/09/10 18:51
Yeah Ok Cupid is most likely the place. That is such an odd site. I joined it for the tests and have never (well once I almost met someone from the site) met anyone from the site in person. Of course I have seen people on there (A few (e:peeps) at least) that I all ready know. I'm sure I have seen other people around town who I think are on it or some other site.. Now some people might be from like the concert or The Square scene or at other wrestling shows but that is kinda different.......
vincent - 11/08/10 20:49
Yea that "Internet Deja Vu" is an odd thing. I'm almost willing to bet I saw (e:JoyBlue) on OkCupid. It's funny as I saw someone out in public last week at a lecture and sure enough I realized I saw her profile on OkCupid as I reconfirmed it the other day.

I wonder sometimes if when I'm out in public women laugh at me when they see me in person, as I'm just about ever site you are!
