hangover2 Diary
Category: movies
Woke up early today since I passed out early last night... This means I got to Watch Diary of The Dead.... It was a fun Zombie movie to watch.... I like that it also speaks on media a bit and how it effects us and that it was made to look like all amateur shotting well not hollywood cameras .....

Now I can't say much about the Hangover with out giving stuff away... It was funny but not as much as the 1st one but then again I also thought the 1st one was better the 2nd time... The movie was crazy again won't give anything away other then to say now I want to Go to Thailand .... I think a few of the things that where supposed to be jokes I just liked but hey that is just me.........

Wish I had time to get in a 3rd movie but I doubt that happening.... Think I'm going to see Burlesque (not to be confused with the movie that I think was really good) At Roxy's (Mistress J has a class and they are dancing so......No Pictures also so that is good also...)

I think part of that kind of Comedy Movie is that a full theater helps.... When I went the place was empty...... I also don't think it helped that the Pop corn guy said it was so funny I would be crying ...... I also think that (not counting people who " Smoke Up" before they go) that comedy works best in a certain mood but you can't really tell when that mood is.... I saw go with some friends and have a good time.... Again I can't say what my favorite parts where cause it would give way to much away......

I was hoping the hangover would be good.The first one was so hillarious and I live Kristen Whig. Should I just wait for it to come to Netflix?

TV and Wanting to get away.......
So Some how It is Memorial Day Weekend.... How did that Happen.... I just feel like getting away... Wish I was the kind that could just go hop on a bus or train and go to NYC but 8 hours isn't one of those fuck it I'm outta here things.... Even Toronto would be great but currently the USA Gestapo makes you prove who you are to get back into this country but yet all the illegals just kinda walk in.....ARGH.... Oh well Guessing I'll go down and look at the ships or maybe watch a bunch of war movies who knows.... Then the Next weekend is Pride.... I figure go to the Parade (think it goes the other way this year and then down to the Marina)... Might Check out the Dyke march and then later go drink and take pictures of the Stripteasers event think Club Diablo is having some cool event that night to.....

Ok now the TV question... I bought an HD LED TV..... I don't have the HD Channels yet but stations that have shows in HD don't take up the entire screen it has this thing called zoom but then it looks like the other settings either the picture is small or you lose a tiny bit of it......Does this mean to see the HD shows to take up the entire screen I need the HD Channels?

Next Question.... Some shows look different color wise if I lean back or forward.... Kinda like how some phones do this...Any Idea why (lights are on)......

Just thought if someone had one of these kinds of TVs they might have some insight....Mine is small 22 inches if that helps and is on a little stand.....
metalpeter - 05/27/11 17:13
@MrMike that is a help I assumed that the entire screen would be filled.

@tinypliny that 4am train sounds like a cool idea I may have to try that some time... Well In terms of hooking it to the computer I bought for my mothers house I have no idea how to do that.... Besides if I did that I would never leave .... It is 22 inch

It may just be me but the TV doesn't look like it is completely flat the screen looks like there is a tiny turn to a very almost not there curve...
tinypliny - 05/26/11 22:02
A nifty trick is to take the 4:00 AM train to NYC and just sleep all the way till it gets there at around 12:30. It's the best way of avoiding the eternity of a train ride. You can't do that in a bus ride, that's why I have decided to always take the train or fly and NEVER commute by bus to NYC again. How big is your TV? Can you connect it to your computer?
mrmike - 05/26/11 20:23
Those sets have settings (check your remote) that decide the size and shape of the picture, won't always fill the complete screen

Pirates of the Caribbean+
Category: movies
So went to see the newest installment of the Pirate movies in 3D today... It was a fun time... In Terms of 3D stuff there where two parts that I noticed that where pretty good but again not sure about the 3D thing... I suspect for a movie to really work in 3D the entire thing has to be shot in 3D and only 3D... See if a movie is going to be in 2D and 3D then the 3D parts don't make sense in the 2D version and the 2D stuff could be 3D? That is why I'm pumped for one of the previews I saw 3 Musketeers... The last version of it that came was pretty good but this 3D version looks like it will be amazing.... Oh yeah Pirates was good and if you liked the other ones you will like this one....I admit I don't remember the past stories cause for some reason I have only seen them at the show...... That being said as soon as the credits started to roll I was thinking wonder when the next one is going to come out.... Then end credits and the next movie starts or where I assume the next one will pick up AWESOME!

Hopefully tonight if the world hasn't ended by then I will finally get to watch Get Him To The Greek.... It is on HBO and what ever previous station it was On I kept missing it......

This Morning was kinda odd as it looked like there was fog but it was high in the sky and kinda distant......
tinypliny - 05/26/11 22:09
I always like all the versions of the 3 musketeers! I need to catch this later. Did you ever watch that youtube video by a fake band called "the lonely planet" featuring Michael Bolton, where he keeps singing about the pirates of the caribbean while the others are singing about something completely different. It's a riot. Watch it on youtube when you get a chance. I think the band started out as a farcical group on SNL or something.

Tattoo Ideas
Category: body art
I will admit I love Lovely tattoos on women.... I Don't know about the sleeve thing though I prefer when you can see what each Tattoo is with some space around it.... Yes over on that other site I like tattoo pages and like tattoo shows.... Well there was a question about if you got a $1000 tattoo and had to spend all of it what would you get? I have no idea what anything costs....

-I don't think I could deal with the type of pain that tattoos give
-what if I don't like it, I mean how it look on me I'm more of a wall art guy

That being said I have 3 ideas for what I think could be pretty cool of course the pain of any of them might kill me and I don't know if they could be done artistically

1. San Fransisco Metallica Tattoo.... It would be include all the members yes even Mustane who went onto megadeth fame... Somehow the golden gate bridge and those famous Trolly's would have to be a part of it....

2. I tropical lagoon with a huge waterfall rising out of the water would be a water dragon and laying on the grass would be a white tiger.......

3. A mash up of Sean Madden art... Maybe the warpigs with a tank and one of them has the Bottle and gun with girls kissing as the pope looks on dancing with the devil or something like that

4. On top of a flat part of a mountain a huge dragon Sits with a Knight and is crying as they both look down on a grave yard... The crosses are swords with shields on them

Again just Ideas to get the detail on my skinny self to make any of them good I would need my entire chest or back......
tinypliny - 05/26/11 22:11
lol My tattoo dreams are not that grandiose. I just want to get to a point where getting a tattoo would mark something memorable and important enough.

Well hope someone enjoyed these shots of buffalo as I took part in the hospice walk...

I have actually seen people washing clothes at that "ice-rink-by-winter". Though I wonder if they had to add an entire gallon of detergent to reach that level of foam! What a waste!
metalpeter - 05/23/11 16:58
From a distance it did look like snow so I went to go see it.... I wonder if someone added something so they could wash their clothes.... there where some clothes on a bench.... Or maybe there is something they put in the water to make it clean and there was to much not really sure but it sure was interesting............
paul - 05/22/11 19:09
I was so confused until I read the last part. I though that the foam was snow, lol. I wonder if that was okay for the fountain or if someone did it as a prank.
