cyclorama
this has always been my favorite building. Prolly because I thought the people who worked inside wore roller skates while they worked

Wait, I thought the roller-skate thing was true. Wasn't it?! Were YOU the one who told me that the office that worked there had secretaries and clerks and messengers wear roller-skates inside the building?? Don't tell me that is not true - because I must have told this to the hundreds of people who have walked me across the parking lot of the cyclorama. I mean, the name itself suggest that the building is a cycling chronicle. One would naturally assume that who ever inhabited that building cycled or roller-skated at one time.

It was a roller skating rink at one point in it's history. It has also been used as an entertainment center, a livery stable, a warehouse, a taxi garage, a library room and finally an office building. Very cool building.

There is also a clothing store with fairly decent clothes, a rather good barber shop, GNC and one more store that I am forgetting the name of - also a clothing store.

foot locker, kids foot locker, payless, a dollar store, a scrubs store, and a gift shop that has a lot of buffalo themed things. And maybe a rainbow I think or something like that. Oh and a Labels. That's it. well and the food court

paul - 02/16/11 21:14
The amount of plastic is unreal. I wish you could have taken pictures of it all. That what you should do. Take a pic of all of it from now and make a slideshow.
flacidness - 02/16/11 16:28

Gym Time?
So two weeks ago I joined a gym, Fitness 19 cuz it is near my house and near my work and seems not too hardcore and had a card to join for free with my insurance. BUT...I have not gone at all! When I signed up he was like so you wanna work out today...and was like heck no! maybe next week, but now its been 2 weeks and I just cannot get myself up to it. I think I need someone to go with me the first time and show me the machines and stuff. Why am I so anti-gym, When I actually do it I don't hate it, not that I like it like other people say how good they feel, I don't feel that, but I don't hate it. Ugh, maybe next week!
leetee - 02/09/11 12:40
I've heard that all the time, that people feel better after working out. Never happened to me. I usually give up after about 6 weeks because it continues to be a struggle and i don't feel any better or get that post work out rush people talk about.

I hope you start to go and once you get it into your routine, you get that great feeling from it!
matthew - 02/09/11 11:12
I'm with you mike, I can't get myself to the gym. Although, I do agree with dave's comment on feeling good after a nice workout. I wish I could've been one of those people who get addicted to feeling good & healthy! I started a new workout "regime" last week, minus the gym. We'll see how that goes...
libertad - 02/09/11 10:31
I told you I would go with you. We can maybe go this weekend.

Don't knock the gym Tiny! Lifting weights has many positive health effects. It also allowes people to get cardio in a controlled environment. I really enjoy my time at the gym. I do agree it is time consuming but for me it is worthwile. I feel much better since working out again, despite having this really annoying cold.
tinypliny - 02/09/11 05:05
I don't even like the idea of going to the gym to workout. It feels like a deadening time-sucking chore to me, time that could have spent improving my mind or experience. I'd rather dance.
