Messing around with Google Street View, I found 2 Irish pubs on one street. It might surprise you where they are….

Time lapse video of my drive in from Victor during the “Snowpocalypse”. It’s all in the technique.

“NYSDOT will build a Diverging Diamond Interchange to improve traffic conditions and highway safety at the interchange of Interstate 590 and Winton Road in the town of Brighton.”

Have you ever seen anything like this? I haven’t.

Found some pretty random video today. It’s an old clip of 2 bands playing everyone’s-favorite-getting-to-know-you-better-game, Twister!
Not only is there Twister, the clip includes my favorite brand of lard, Crisco.
One other small thing….the two bands are Nirvana and Smashing Pumpkins.
You can tell the video is old because Billy Corgan has long hair, and Kurt Cobain has a face.
(what? still too soon?)
Oh…don’t watch it in front of the kids.
Enjoy!

Let me say THIS right up front…
“I PREFER BIG DOGS!”
Ok, with that out of the way, here is the newest member of the Jones household.
His name is Frankie.
(Frank if I’m trying to toughen him up)
He’s 10 weeks old.
He’s 4 1/2 pounds.
His mother is a Maltese.
His father is a Miniature Poodle.
That would make him a “Maltapoo”
Save your ridicule.
My friends have beat you too it.

I brought this up on the show today and wanted to make it easy for you to find.

After weeks of calling the pediatrician we finally got the kids in for their flu shots.  My son (2) got the H1N1 and the seasonal flu shots. For this, I am happy.

My daughter (4) was only given the seasonal flu shot.  They wouldn’t give her the H1N1 because she’s not considered “high risk”.  I’m having a hard time understanding the age cut offs that decide who gets the shot and who doesn’t.  My daughter is only four years old!  H1N1 has affected kids much older than her, like the kids in Wayne and Genesse counties that died, or the nine year old girl in a coma.

I’m not trying to be a fear monger here. I’m just frustrated that the thieves at Goldman Sachs and Citigroup were given their H1N1 shots before my kid.  I think I might have to get into white collar crime so my kids can be healthy this year.  Prison inmates across the country, (including some at Guantanamo) have been given their H1N1 shots. But my pediatrician wasn’t given enough for all of their patients?

Looks like I’ll have to become a rapist or terrorist for the sake of my family.  If I’m gonna do this right, I should begin raping terrorists in front of Goldman Sachs.  That should get SOMEONE’S attention, and my daughter might be first in line for her shot.

WTF?

9:50 PM HSBC Arena, Buffalo, NY "One"

While playing around with the Metallica iPhone App, I noticed that the Buffalo show was for sale! Check out LiveMetallica.com for that show and a TON of other Metallica live shows.

They also have a bunch of history about every show on the tour. Little details like “Metallica performed 18 songs tonight from 7 different albums: Kill ‘Em All (3 songs), Ride the Lightning (1 song), Master of Puppets (2 songs), …And Justice for All (1 song), The Black Album (3 songs), Garage, Inc. (2 song), and Death Magnetic (6 songs) “

I was lucky enough to get good seats for the Metallica show in Buffalo last night.  I had a pocket camera with me so I shot some quick footage for ya…
