Dirty dancing
Category: dancing

We went to the Igloo warehouse rave with (e:uchina). Thankfully there was no starer this time.

It was still fun but definitely not as crazy as the last one. House music isn't really my thing - no drum and bass second story like before. I still got a ton of dancing in, just more work.

Maybe we should have gone crazier because this time we saw how disgusting the warehouse was. From the Union Carbide barrels warning of formladehyde ((e:paul,59916)) to the mysterious floor goop, to the chain-smokestacks I felt like we were going to end up with black lung.

Someone gave up on the HEPA vacuum filter.

Third world buffalo
Category: environment

We went with (e:uchina) to brunch at Panos. On the way in, we noticed Elmwood smelled like sewage, which is nothing new. On the way out we noticed their rain gardens and sewer intakes were literally spitting out sewage all over the street. notice the toilet paper.

Yeah they already tore up half the rain gardens and replaced them with porous bricks. I feel like there's too much trash and garbage in Buffalo to keep them clear and no one to clean it up.

I can't really look but I think those rain gardens where a bad idea what is summer 3 out of 12 months and I bet they make snow removal tough .... I didn't know about the sewage smell but that is out of control there ...

There was seriously toilet water running down the streets.

Luck of the Irish
Category: st. patrick's

(e:terry) got the Lloyd's St. Patrick's day discount for being a ginger.

Well, ginger or just cute?

metalpeter - 03/20/15 19:26
First of all Lloyd's is awesome they really are I think it is great that he got the discount cause to me he doesn't look like a Ginger not read hair and not pale enough... That though just makes it better .....

St Patrick's Day parade
Category: st. patrick's

It got cray this year.

Breakfast of crazy tea and Flower Power. It's a classier Four Loko. I think it made a difference in me staying up for the whole day this time.

Everyone came over. (e:heidi) and (e:dianne) saved the day with some breakfast food for everyone.

My favorite part was the vuzulvea beer funnel at the parade. (e:flacidness), you tried your best.

Blow, (e:mike), blow!

The bros go wild

Maskottchen!

We finished out the day on Allen as bears.

Buffalo bike party
Category: bikes

Our first bike ride of year was the Buffalo bike party. We went with (e:keitht) - it started at Colonial. went down to Founding Father's, MLK Park, and then a fried food party.

We broke away for a while to stop at Mohawk place for infringement. We ended up seeing (e:czarkasm) there.

The ride was short and not too amazing but we met a few cool new people (besides the ride leader who litters cigarette packets). I can't wait for warmer days where people aren't waiting to go inside and the rides go on forever.

Fried oreos are delicious and gross as hell.

(e:paul) and I got to desecrate the expressway.

I'm so jealous about the bike ride. (e:Dianne) and I have to get new bikes NOW! However, we didn't go out that night because we were (and still are) sick :-p Glad you made it to infringement.
