todayCategory: photos
So This Morning I went down to Zillycakes..... Ok maybe I should have got off the bus a stop early and taken a picture of the ladies in black or what ever they are called.... Thought that with Halloween closing in there might be a zombie Walk posted but didn't see one.... Cupcakes of the month are good just should have asked for the Gummy Worms on one of them... Oh wait still need to try that and the lake Effect ice cream was Banana pankcake the kind I really wanted they where out of.......
So doing a washing clothes Day I and I saw that Lloyd's was on Connecticut St. So I had to go check it out it was Nice to run into (e:PMT) again... I didn't know what the thing was really to be honest just went for a Taco... See that power is what the "Brick and Mortar" Places fear... But what they don't get is that those trucks bring people who wouldn't be near your place so it helps you out also......
I only Have one Pet Peeve or Problem and not blaming these guys not sure what owner did it..... When I was growing up the Graffiti mural thing was all ways there... It is dark out coming home from the showplace I'm the next stop... Now never sure what it really was but it was cool... It was hip... It was never painted over.... Then one day when Horse Feathers was still open I think I saw it was painted over and they had signs saying you where watched and tagging would get you locked up.... But those couple of parts they never painted Over?

How much do those zillycakes boxes cost? How much is it for a muffin? Looks very fancy.

computer questionCategory: ?
1. I started a new category I think with a question mark that seems like a good idea if someone has a question just use that....
2. Most of the computer stuff on here by (e:Paul) and (e:tinypliny) I admit is way past me so I read a bit of the post then stop since I'm lost after like 3 lines
3. I admit I should have thought of this yesterday
My question or problem:
I set up my sisters computer and she didn't have a USB plug with her computer for the printer that is right it didn't come with one and it says some of them don't come with one What? But that isn't the problem I'm asking about....
She moved the computer down stairs or maybe Time Warner did to set up the internet. Her monitor has the hookup for something other then the computer to plug in but has no out put and no speaker on it... So there is no sound so I bought speakers just the kind that plug into the back... Do they make USB Speakers? Not even sure if there is a USB port open? They are plugged in and hooked in and no sound? Any Ideas? I went to sound and couldn't figure any thing out.... There is something called like HDMI or something like that sound but can't see any way to change it....
Does one call Best buy or Time Warner ? I have no idea?

To be honest I'm not sure if she had sound or not before... I wonder...

tinypliny - 10/18/11 19:16
Well, it is an important question. If she had sound before,
a) installation of some extra software --> could point to some driver conflict or software corruption,
b) moving the comp --> physical/hardware issues.
Many monitors have speakers in them and there is a 2 way cord that takes input from devices and plays it back. For eg. my monitor can play sounds from my mp3 player. So can my new toshiba.

I guess She is going to have to call Time Warner.... Thing is no speakers on the monitor and it only has import no export things like on a flat screen TV so... Not sure if there was sound before she I assumed she is the one that moved it maybe time warner did and set everything up there is phone also so I'm guessing time warner has to do something just thought some people might have ideas to look into thanks though...... Now in terms of the drivers I think that is all installed unless of course there is some part that is needed that you have to get online but best buy is usally pretty good and all that stuff is preloaded ....

Monitors that have speakers have a cord with a green end that go into the speaker port that (e:heidi) posted a picture of.

Maybe the sound drivers are not installed? does she have a CD with the drivers?

her printer looks to have some weird kind of thing in the back that I need to look into.... Not sure why she didn't go to Best Buy to get one...ARGh... It looks like it is hooked into the green one.... and looks like the volume is on and the speakers are plugged in and on....

Usually basic computer speakers have the green plug that goes in the green port on the back of the computer, and a power source plug which could either be for an electrical outlet OR for a USB port. I'm posting a pic over in my blog of green plug, green port. Then there's a power switch on the speakers themselves.
Any old USB cable with the right ends will fit the printer. If you used to have a printer, use the old one. Most computers have about 8 USB ports.

Can Buffalo Handle a Championship?Category: philosophy
So It is the Sabres Home opener Now I can admit that it isn't the same as say baseball where it is also kinda like the start of a season and all the stuff that goes along with that but I'll watch at least the start of the game... There were all kinds of changes with the new owners and we shall see how much of that we see on TV should be interesting....
Now Pegula has loosened up the purse strings..... But that doesn't really mean the team gets better... Yes you can keep more talent but you can also pay people based on a great first year when they don't play up to the level they are paid at but it is a good first step.... Now I don't know as we can ever get to the New England Patriot level of good where players took less money to play with them but you never know....
But for anyone who is reading this I haven't answered my question....
1. Bandits Have 4 Championships but for some reason no one counts those...
2. Bisons are professorial Baseball and have had Back to Back championships don't ask what years cause I have no Idea.... Oh since we aren't one of the famous Minor league clubs that Baseball movies are made about I guess they don't count those...
3. I thought that before the Superbowl Bills where AFL champions but not sure on that some one help me out on this?
So I guess Hockey and Football Only Count!?
--I don't think Buffalo could Handle a Stanley Cup Championship.... When the bandits won cars where pounded and it was all most insane as inside a game... Now with the Sabres never winning a cup and the 10,000 out side in the plaza I think all hell would break lose.... Now I could be wrong maybe I'm to much of a Jim Carey Fan?
Buffalo is a Blue Collar town.... Doesn't mean that everyone works hard... But that work ethic is in everything... But we don't have the tradition of greatness of say Boston Or other hockey towns....Maybe we need an NBA Team? Here it is more about the hard work... Then we come up a bit short... We aren't the Championship team or town.... Just look out side of sports for prof of this.... Maybe it is just cause I fell in Love with Toronto but... Why wasn't there a waterfront 15 years ago? Why did we put a highway (think before I was born) that made one big huge park into about 3 or 4 that aren't connected? This list for those older then I could go on for an hour so I'll skip to the Aud.... Maple Leafs Gardens is going to be reused and yet when we shut down the aud no one thought lets get the chairs and that kind of thing.... When they went to tear it down the Blue ones where the only ones you could auction off safely.... The lower and upper golds or even the reds would have been great with cushions... Oh my!!!!!!!
There is a part of me that I hope is wrong that I will Never see The Sabres win the cup.... It is like not our destiny..... I don't remember "The French Connection" but they are the most Famous Sabres and they didn't win the cup.... Grant Fuhr and No cup then Backing up Hasek and no cup.... Mogilny and LaFontane and no cup..... All of our best teams where never enough.... Granted we have had some teams who played above there skill level and see that is the hard work thing again.... I admit a few Years back I think we where good enough but got Jinxed.... Think that was the one year one Goal thing... People knew we where good and new we could win...Well that isn't the Buffalo Attitude and it bit us on the as... People made there own Stanley Cups and New Era had a count down on how many more games we had to win .... We put our own Jinx on.....
Hey But Maybe all this Occupy Stuff will change thing and change the fates and change things up... But currently the Sabres and this town are the hard workers who all ways get less then the big bosses and those are the other teams..... I hope I'm wrong ..... Will the marina burn if covered in Snow?

I wonder if they are still out there during this crappier weather. People keep saying how will this street protesting end. I bet winter silences before any police do.

I love the one at the end with Keke and I.
