So on here and on Facebook I got into the food truck Debate....
-I think they are a great idea
-What got me so upset to begin with is that people where saying here are places that are concerned with their business and so they are pushing for laws that will protect and since they are doing that we won't eat there anymore....
-My main concern was that with them being mobile that a system needs to be in place where if there is a problem you call someone and they come out right a way and make a decision that is binding.. Say I get food poisoning or they have a guy with a big sign in front of my place stealing my customers... then someone comes out or maybe a few people they make a decision as what is to be done on the spot...
-Certain Festivals and places you need a permit for I think Delaware park is one of them... Food trucks should be able to get a permit for those places....
-Police shouldn't be pulling over trucks! unless they do something wrong like run a red light...
-What I thought should have happened was bar owners and street vendors and Pine Hill Coffee trucks, and James the Ice Cream dude and everyone who sells food or drinks should all have a big meeting with law makers and work out what is fair....Cause if I own a Juice stand or what ever is it fair that a truck can drive around and sell juice to people who are running not really......
Not sure what is going on with the great food truck race but hope Lloyds wins....

Night of Champions Predictions and moreSo I'm writing this now because with watching football on Sunday and then wrestling I don't see when else I would have time. Plus all day Saturday is Music Is Art... That should be a good time... I bought a 2nd camera so now I just have to like read the entire book let... Using a new camera at an event should be interesting looking forward to it... It also has a lens cap so I'm thinking that this might make me take fewer and Better pictures? We shall see what happens...
So going to Night Of Champions and I do predict it will be fun and so will MIA. Now I will admit Ring Side sure is fun but often it isn't the best place to see or take photos from but that is ok... I'm not front row but the tickets sure where a lot... It being a PPV raises all the prices but still.... I hope this is one of the PPVs where you get to keep your chair... Some of the PPVs have art on the chairs and the first so ever how many rows have those chairs that sure would be cool...Didn't say anything either way when I bought the tickets....
CM PUNK VS HHH: Punk wins my call is that HHH is about to win and Kevin Nash comes out and attacks him and that with the rules means HHH is no longer COO and whom ever was pulling Nash's Strings becomes the new COO on Raw the next night... Oh yeah I still think he doesn't like punk so after the match Punk get stuck to (jack knife power bomb or what ever they call it)....
Alberto Del Rio (champion) Vs. John Cena: Can't call a winner but there is now way they can let Alberto be champion for this short of time so Cena won't leave with the tittle but he might win.....
Randy Orton (world Champion) Vs. Mark Henry: I like Orton but more so when he is more evil... I don't like Henry and don't hate him he is one of those ah I don't know doesn't do any thing good or bad for me.... It has to be his time to win and win the tittle so Henry wins and maybe gets punted after the match......
Bourne &Kofi (tag Champions) Vs. Miz and R-truth : Miz and R-truth are great but the Tag Champs have held the tittle for like 2 weeks Fans just Named them? So as much as I want Miz and R-truth I'm Picking Air Boom!
Kelly Kelly (divas Champion) Vs. Beth Phoenix: Well Kelly won last time but Beth Has to win in her hometown (or at least she is said to be from here) It would be great to see a heal win the tittle then take it into the crowd cause I'm sure they all want Kelly to win... I have to go with Beth on this one!
Fatal Four way: Challengers Swagger, Alex Riley, Morrison Vs. Dolph Ziggler...... This is a tough one who knows where they will take this story wise... If Swagger wins the tittle will this vickie issue get settled. I want Morrison my self... but think they want this feud to kinda go on so it is I guess I pick Ziggler.....
Now granted there is a Smackdown on Tonight that was taped on Tuesday... Now there is no IC tittle match listed on the site... I'm guessing that it will Be Cody Rhodes defending it and keeping it over Dibessie or how ever you spell it....
Can't predict what warm up match they will have to get us ready... But maybe the New Sin Cara vs. Someone.... In any event if you get the PPV look for me... I doubt I will make it on TV I never do....
I predict a fun weekend maybe I'll see some of ya'll out and about for a photo op or something....

Sat. SkyCategory: photos
So Saturday I worked for a couple hours and on the way and way home and then after Skiffling (that is so wrong it makes me sound like I'm in the band or a dancer when I'm not) I took some shots... As a little side note I need to check the weather and hope they are right cause Sat. 10am-PM about is Music Is Art and I bought a 2nd Camera... This is a big camera but not an SLR Fuji about $200 it claims 18X zoom but not sure if every camera X number is really the same... One reason I got this one is it takes real Batteries.... Yes the ones that charge are nice , and pricey and save money over all but if they die... You can't go into any store and buy one even if you could how would you charge it.... So we shall see how it is.... If it might rain then take it to WWE on Sunday and use the water one outside.....

@(e:Paul) well it is a combo of both..... I did zoom in (might be 3X not sure) but also out near the Harlem and Broadway they are in there decent or in some cases they could be on their take off... Of course not sure how far away the airport is or how high up they really are so....

@(e:tinypliny) that about the #22 used to be true for like 20 years at least... I never understood why best turns into Walden why only the #6 sycamore bus only goes out there to the Galleria mall... I have caught the bus home from the wal-mart all the time but never caught it going out that way... Only because it doesn't run early enough... Plus not sure of where the bus stop is I know it is about a block from me but not sure if it picks up there if you aren't a student I assume it does but been years since I used the closet stop to me....

and besides, I never really bought anything at walmart in rochester apart from occasional groceries... and oh, my iron. That was before I discovered that I could 30 different types of greens in the chinese store near the laundromat. I then stopped going anywhere else. lol

I don't think the 22 Porter goes to walmart directly. It ends at Bailey and something. It's a dead end. I remember going to that terminus and then taking a bus to the clinton and bailey's farmer's market once upon a time. Someone on that bus told me that you had to take another bus to walmart. I never tried. it was totally not worth that much effort to get to walmart bus hopping for 3 hours.

It is on a train around Broadway and Harlem... Harlem is that bridge that goes over the tracks and then you have the Thruway mall plaza with wall-mart and other places and then it hits Walden... As a side note If you are a Wal-Mart fan yes you can get out there on two buses but it only takes one the #22 Porter Best bus sometimes that is how I go home not sure how many minutes apart it runs I think about 30 but not sure with out looking again though it depends on day and time as well....

I thought I posted a comment thanking you for these pictures. But it seems to have vanished... Most puzzling.
Anyway, I love those pics of the chaotic fuzzy lighted clouds. Very cool. They remind me of someone's hairstyle I wanted. I think some actress called Mia or something. She plays Jane Eyre in the latest film with Fassbender.

9/11 ten years politicalCategory: politics
So I debated if I should write anything on 9/11 with it being 10 years and I decided that I need to... I didn't want to make it political.. Look there are all kinds of things on facebook that have an implied meaning not never forget.... But then I thought it isn't our fault it has been made political by the people running the country at the time....
So the tough part is where to start (wonder if anyone on facebook will even read this). I don't have the same connection to this event as everyone else... Think I knew at the time one person who was in NYC and so the thought of family being in those towers never even crossed my mind... I wasn't in love with the city and the people there so it was like the Oklahoma City bombing by the way and that was the 1st Major Attack on our country... Everyone says 9/11 because of it being a foreign attack and there they have a point .. I was at work at the time and the boss let us know and it was view-able for anyone who wanted to see it...
The question most of these remember Sept 11th posts don't do is ask why... Why did we get attacked... Granted the people in the towers and the firefighters where innocent.... But why did someone fly planes into those buildings are part of a bigger attack? At the time no one wanted to know they just wanted death to those who did it... Who cares if we stick our noses into things that aren't our business who cares if we liberate people, so what if we support dictators and people who torture there own people (Sadam)... Not saying we can keep the entire world happy... But it isn't like we don't do evil things only those scum bag dirty Muslims do... Oh just nuke them all....
But see the other problem is no one asked why do they hate us...The follow up question should have been what will happen for different courses of action... In other words are we going to get more enemies then friends...
I'm not saying that one side holds the rights to remember sept. 11th and never forget what I'm saying is that it does suggest a certain view point politically not that it is true for every person.....
9/11 did change everything... Now they have the right to search you every where you go...What the fuck I just want to see a show why can't I sneak in my candy or what ever it is insane...
How about those united we stand shirts... Oh yeah all those people wearing them are doing such a great job of pulling up the poor and people who look like and act not like them... Great shirt there buddy.....
So don't even get me started on the wars with two countries ... It would be like if the Lakawana 6 blew some place up so England invaded us cause we had Terrorists it is so fucking stupid well that is "W" and his cronies who where all in with Sadam and Bin Laden....
Back to work for a minute remember when those Bin Laden Wanted signs where around... There was the (how can you not love those girls on those trucks) Pine Hill Coffee truck that came to work and it had one of those posters on it... Not saying he is a nice guy but you don't need war to get one guy... Oh yeah Seal Team 6 that was all about testing that stealth Helicopter really.... But after some time she no longer had that poster.... They where made illegal... Not sure why but it makes sense can't have people going to peace full places looking for Bin Laden at the local masque making friends in the us our enemy and shit.....
Now I don't go as far as the people who think we planned 9/11. But we knew it could happen yes there is prof that it was one of many scenarios that we knew about... That being said right at the time it came out that those building where built to stand being hit by a plane... Odd that the 2nd plane hitting is what caused the collapse.... What is odder though is how did they know one plane wasn't enough?
Now the NFL season started on Thursday... But today is like the real start and the Giants are in DC playing the skins...Go Skins... I'm sure all over the country there will be a lot of 9/11 stuff and that is fine... Sure for this game they will have all kinds of stuff and lots of stuff since this would be the perfect place to attack on National TV and in the capitol so... Security will be on high alert...
Now that all being said I have seen one thing on 9/11 other then Rescue Me (great show by the way) about the memorial and it is gorgeous like how they did the names and it looks very nice... My point in all this when you watch and special about this and there are a ton and some really good ones I'm sure. Step back and think? Don't buy the propaganda . Don't get caught up in the Fake Patriotism (altered Pledges , and anthems at sports events and that stuff) You know that I have a big flag so I love my country more then you.... No do this instead... Think of all the heroes that went into that building (real heroes don't think of them selves that way they where doing what they do and you would to if you could) to save the innocents... Then think about all the other innocent people and think about what should be done or shouldn't be done depending on your view for those people...Try and think and remember about those people and not some big political event and what it caused......

The UN is a spineless absolute puppet of an organization. Always has been. UN and power - those two words don't even go together in paper.

Well at least with ants I assume there is a reason like food or to protect the food for other ants .....
Well the UN is supposed to do that... Remember they told the US not to go into one of those wars... Now the UN has an army but when it is made up by us troops who is going to stop them.... When the un said no they should have taken the UN army to boarder and waited and fired on Americans "We Said NO!" and that is what we mean! ah no one has any balls anymore or at least not for the things they should....ARGh

I did mean judgment day on legal terms. I don't think there is any accountability in the circles that actually controls wars. The people who have the real power to squander and channel this much of public money into weapons, unreservedly embezzle tax money into the business of warfare, bulldoze so many innocent lives into futility and yet get away with all of it without no one ever really knowing who or what they are probably have no justice above them.
It's very comforting to believe that there is a divine justice but whoever is up there (who knows if anyone is up there or down there or not at all...) is probably laughing at the foolishness and pettiness of all of us doing each other to death, not unlike watching two warrior ants maul each other to death.

In Terms of the Judgement day by some god that is one thing I never touched on cause it is to complex to get into.... But After we took down Sadam and the Iraqi army all these different kind of Muslims would attack each other and americans... If you are friends with the Jews then that makes you enemies to others....
Now every faith system is different.... But one can believe that when you die you are judged... IF you are Christian and these vary some you go to Hell or Heaven or wait I heard Purgatory isn't used anymore? Now again there are different kinds of Budhism so can only say for general terms but they believe if you lead a good life your next life will be better... Of course the goal here is to become more enlightened (what ever you want that to mean) and at some point when you hit that point that is the part where I get lost but I guess you no longer have to keep reliving lives?
Now if you meant a judgement day on legal terms... That will never happen... See because part of being "American" is that you aren't wrong and everything you do is right.... That is what I think pisses off people in other countries the most... It has to be our way and we are the best ...?

Wars are wrong, even if they were in response to 9/11. They are so wrong. I wish I could believe that there is a judgment day coming for the people who ordered these wars for whatever mercenary reason. But if such a power or justice actually existed, the wars would have never happened. :(

It really is insane. The reason we got Bin Laden this time isn't because of a war (Assuming you believe this story and you believe bush was really looking for him there is a case to be made but I'm not going to that when there is no enemy a precieved one is made up it is part of that industrial war complex thing) but from intelligence gathering.... Aka those cool spy movies we see on TV but just the dull watching stuff not the blowing up of things. That is how we could have got him way back when instead of going into wars.....

The other day I was watching a documentary about it and they said 2752 died in the incident. That sounds like nothing compared to the amount of people, many of whom were also totally innocent (including children), that we killed in retribution. Its sickening, when you consider the amount of time, money, and lives that we squandered in response.

Supposedly a bar will open upstairs and they will bring food up.

Now that being said during the show as she (fiddle player) walked past me I could have sworn I heard her say High to you of course it could have been a different mike but one could hear it clear as day as the saying go..

The thing is that two competing places that serve the same type of stuff but that are different say McDonald's and Burger King have been found to be good for each other... Now granted I have no idea if since they figured that out if new research has been done to see if it is still true... But that is why if travel any place and get off at any where in any town or huge city you pretty much see them both some where not to far... Now maybe it is a hardees or Harvey's some where but you get the point....
I do think that more Jim's Steak out more then Just Pizza maybe does have a claim to not like food trucks... Yes all the people here currently are great.. But it does seem (not saying this is true) that all you need is to be like two guys who trick out a truck and people will flock to it.... I can see why they don't want the Whole Hog taking food away from them on Allen as an example.....
That being said I think from a Business side when ever any thing new comes along it can take away the old it doesn't all ways... But these sit down order out fast food kinda places it is natural to think that some day you could be closed by the truck on say the "Chip Strip" . Video didn't really kill the Radio star...Computers didn't kill the type writer.... CDs didn't kill Tapes but there sure aren't many of those things left... So I can see why they are worried...
Now Just Pizza is a little different... People who decide not to go there that I get and here is why they are different... They are Mobile.. Name a festival that they aren't at... and no one could... With them I think they don't want to compete with others. Just Pizza is great if you buy it on Elmwood can't say that is true for them all though.... Not sure how much they do this but they Pimp there shit out or they use to a lot..... Went to one of them years ago out some place and walked in with someone else no slices what the.... Also the pizza wasn't as good.... I think they make a lot of money off selling their name to others and at festivals where they don't have all the different kinds and where they raise the prices... I laugh when I see people buy it at Allen Town it is like walk the two blocks... Really....
Onto MIA for a second it was a great time and loved all the food trucks there.... Roaming Buffalo's was awesome and yeah the Pretty girls helped but the food was really good... Found it kinda funny that Think it was Just Pizza was down there away from like the other food trucks......
What I would really like to see happen is take out politicians who aren't doing any thing anyways on a board... If you walk into mighty taco say and they make it wrong some place doesn't give you your fruit... Pull out the cell phone call that number and these people stationed all over buffalo and burbs (what else they doing anyways ok could use real people I guess) come out make a decision... Of course they would have to teach the mighty taco people how to roll those things so the sour cream runs through the thing instead of being at one end...HA... But other then that....
My point is leave the food trucks alone... Just have some back up thing that hopefully we never need so that both sides are protected so no one does the Gum Salesmen thing from Clerks... Great bit.... Like having People from spot talking about how the coffee sucks near that mobile coffee place is all I'm really saying... On a side note why can't Jim's go Mobile ?
Well, nothing stopping two coffee places from thriving next to one another, think aroma and starbucks on Elmwood. So, I think that argument has a few flaws in it. I think Just Pizza, ETS and Jim's should concentrate on offering good product and people will come. Asking to preserve their space isn't cool either. Make good stuff people will come. The trucks haven't been by any of these places yet.
