Welcome to outerspaceCategory: dancing
The location is awesome. There are three stories of dancefloors. One in giant theater with a massive vinyl dance floor. It is so perfectly slippery. Then they have an outdoor stage.
Sadly, although I am dancing I am wildly preoccupied with several other issues. Sometimes I wish I had the constitution to be a heroin junkie so I could just escape.

You worry too much...

Maybe you should do a photographic series on the peculiarities of period furniture in erstwhile Buffalo.

This makes me sad. I bought a lot of stuff from Harold. Unlike most antique stores in allentown, his stuff was actually affordable to most people who live in the city. I went to an antique dealer on Elmwood and Allen and there was nothing in the shop that cost less than $2,000. I asked him how he managed to stay open, he replied that 90% of his business is from selling pieces online. Local business? Harold curiosities shopped was one of the old style antique shops before the age of antique roadshow and eBay. You could go there and find actual antique pieces of furniture that were made and/or owned originally in Buffalo. Ask all the new antique shops on Hertle Ave where their stuff comes from, the answer is all over the county , from eBay. Harold could actually tell you where every piece he sold came from. Not just whether it was from Buffalo or East Aurora, he could tell you what family commissioned the piece to be made and who owned it up to the year it was sold off. You cant get that info from online shopping. I have a 1922 Mersman table that I bought from Harold for $175. he told me it was originally a piece from the Williams and Pratt Mansion (now know as the Butler Mansion at Delaware & North ( I didn't believe him until he showed me a photograph.)) and it means more to me than other piece of furniture I own. Good luck, Harold.

Oh lol, no wonder there are chairs in the window. I thought they had stacked their restaurant chairs there for sale. Speaking of restaurants on Allen, has anyone tried the new place that replace the disastrous Mediterranean place next to Cafe 65?

The vet spent an hour picking wood chips out of the tortoises butt. An xray made apparent the woodchips ate impacted throughout the entire intestines.
Now we just have to wait and see if the cavity created by the removal if some chips will let the other chips out. If not they are going to have to try tubes which sounds very expensive. Poor Guy.

Fascinating, I never knew the shell was part of their spinal column.

He heard he had wood so thought he should as well? Wait I thought it was a girl? Most likely this is just a way to say "Hey I'm the alpha you do what I say this is my place you eat what I let you eat"?
Oh, he is fine now. He finally pooped a whole bunch of normal poop.
Don't you think your weak and sick new tortoise is being traumatized by the unruly parakeet-murderer? I wonder if you shoul keep them apart atleast until the new one gets better and is able to fend for himself.
