Bandits Win and Arena
Category: photos
So I do still Have Bandits Season Tickets and Today I am going to a WWE House Show at the Arena... I know the people who work there like at all NHL Arenas and some places have multiple sports like Buffalo do a great job doing a change over.... I have no idea what they do and if they pull up rug and then lay down stuff ... If it is Hockey do they just cover the ice like they use to with those boards ..... Or is that the Job of the WWE and I wonder what time they came in... Not to mention they have to have the ring set up before the event so wrestlers can hit it first and kinda go over what they do ..... It is a 1PM Bell Time and the game ended at close to 10 .... But they always do a great Job .... But I wonder how much pressure is on the crews to get it all set up ......

It was a great Bandits Game last night and the Bandits won.... I forget the New Goalies Name but he did a Victory lap before the rest of the team did that was kinda cool a few pics .....

Jamaica 2015 cruise
Category: photos
So I will Admit that I try to Keep up with (e:strip) and fall behind I think part of that is Twitter is good or can be at real time conversation but what it and facebook are not good at is Blogs and I think they teach you in a way to write short or to even leave words out some times ..... But (e:strip) is about writing something and it is odd with how bad I was in English that I have a blog that I don't prof read .... That being said going to try and keep up better then I have been...

In Jamaica the trip I booked (well all the trips are through the cruise line) was to see Dunn's River Falls .... Wow I was out of shape or maybe it is that the water shoes aren't the best for climbing rocks and the falls but it was a fun time with my bad balance .... That I had no pictures of cause they have all these signs about being hands free .... Turns out if you bring a water camera they will take your photo in the water .... But I bought a DVD that I have not watched yet that is supposed to have Pictures on it... You don't have to walk the falls though you can just look at them (My sis did that and has some nice falls pictures) .....

Then it was off to this beach.... I got the one where they bring you food and drinks .... I went in the water a little bit .... You could rent stuff if you wanted to but I wanted to relax.... One could swim I didn't cause I couldn't really watch my stuff not that I thought any one from the group would take it .......

Cruising
So I want to Post some Pictures from the Cruise I went on Got back on Monday but that will be the next post later today ... I went with Sis her Daughter and one of my sis Friends and my mother .... Yes it was fun but not as fun as it should have been... One Port where you Taxi in, had high waves , Weather was to bad and that was going to be a family day everyone at the beach.... Also I could feel the movement of the ship not enough to make me sick but still some .... But the part that is tough about a Cruise is you go down a day early and stay some where (Some people didn't do that from Buffalo and Boston and flights didn't make it ) and then you are on the water with out being any where it is like 3 or 4 of the days (going and coming back ) and when you lose one you are on the ship more then at ports ... now Their are longer cruises this is not true (Go to more places ) ... They had some great entertainment like Improve Comedy , Blue Man Group and that Cirque stuff so it was fun I'm not saying it isn't just that a lot of the activities where not my cup of tea..... Yes they Have Pools on the top deck but for me with the wind I would have felt cold or cool I like to be warm so for me it was out .....

We Left out of Miami but for those that don't fly some leave from NYC .... NCL is the cruise line my Sister booked it was for her 30th Birthday... If you don't like Asians it might not be the company for you I have no problem with them and all the crew was great .... But I wonder what it is like to work on a ship .... It must be tough in some ways but I bet it is a highly sought after job ?

Category: photos
So At this time of year there are all kinds of Holidays and it can be tough even if you have a great Holiday it is easy to think but oh we did that this other way like it was better ... But That isn't really what this post is about it is about just posting some Pictures of the season and yeah some will be TSO but Hopefully Not to many just a few .......

Now that being said I do like Christmas Lights and the huge Displays but never got to see that show Christmas Light Fights guess it was a competition I also can take no credit for Christmas Cookies .... Now in terms of TSO I like them and the effects they used with that chest is cool but liked past shows better ..... Hoping to keep up with posting on here .....

I agree about the cookies.

With all those fireworks and pyrotechnics that had to be a crazy show.
metalpeter - 01/03/15 00:21
Yeah those cookies vanished quickly I got to Have 2 I think (But I didn't cook them or unwrap the kisses so .... Yes that is TSO
paul - 01/02/15 22:31

Kinda looking back on 2014 sorta but....
Category: life
So This blog or somewhere it might be called a note or something is not like one of those had these goal and made them didn't make these type of things It isn't really specific either really ......

I am Hopeful that 2015 will be better but I doubt it...... Now I do not want to say 2014 was bad but it sure felt like I missed a lot of stuff I wanted to go to like the entire Halloween Weekend .... But I think I am often like that but maybe I just noticed it more this year .... But yeah there have been some rough patches for sure...... Some of that is part of getting older I guess ......

But some times when I did miss stuff and some stuff there is just no way to go to it and get back there really isn't but I mean stuff where I said ok going to go to that..... At least most of the time I tried to make the best out of it at home .... I missed so much cool Infringement festival stuff this year but also ran into some I didn't know about so.... But there is still many things I planned to do or where like a strong maybe I missed or that is how it felt at least .....

Our bad sports often fun to still watch doesn't help with the mood.... But that brings up kinda a point... I think that say something good happens it Yeah this is awesome and fun and wow and it is great .... But then something (and not in a fun way ha sorry had to) leaves a bad taste in your mouth or is Negative and it Hurts more then that good feeling and lasts longer ......

Some things I have enjoyed where TV moments now this sounds odd but sometimes over on Twitter one can have a lot of fun ... I sometimes wake up tired or don't feel well and I missed something pretty cool so watched the 2 Sharknandos and talking about it live with everyone was a blast... And last year started out talking about the parade and whom ever was in the Winter Classic that was a fun day.... It isn't the same as talking about it and yelling with a bunch of people but it kinda feels sorta the same way sometimes ... If it is a talk and not just a comment .....

I can admit that there is something still kinda odd about all forms of Social Media ..... So Sometimes it is tough to know how much to share and you know this person from this one thing and this person from that other thing.... So sometimes the political stuff can get way over heated and can drain one .... And there has been some bad stuff we all have seen this year and we all have different views on it..... But debating can be fun but it can wear you out also...... Hoping to be civil hope I was last year... But it is tough cause words have two meanings and codes so you can say one thing and people think it means something else.... Hoping to be more clear next year if I wasn't this year .....

Sorta lost my train of thought I just hope the new year is better then 2014 we shall see........

metalpeter - 12/31/14 01:07
That Is a Good Point ..... Hoping for a better 2015
paul - 12/30/14 23:50
Here is to a better 2015. There is always Halloween 2015!
