Just back from 8 days in NYC with my son and his family we had ha a super time

Saw Blue Man Group show in the East Village and then wandered the village for some nite life

We also saw the Special pre-release screening of a New movie "The Express" that will be officially released this coming Friday , It was super , the story of ERNIE DAVIS the first African -American to win the Heisman Trophy who led the 1959 Syracuse University Football Team to and undefeated season AND the National Championship . It illustrates the brutality that Ernie and the 2 other SU Black players endured during the Cotton Bowl game and several other games in the South .

I was a hs kid at the time and a sied in the wool SU fan and attended several SU games at that time and Ernie was SPECIAL -- so it was a moving experience to watch this flick

We also had several other great events a Czech festival, a city & boat limo tour, visited several museums and sampled Thai , Czeck, Mongolian, Mexican, Polish and Brazilian restaurants around town . Got home tonite after getting off the train from NYC i n Utica then driving thru a glorious trip thru teh Dacks the leaves are spectacular

Wow, you might need chelation therapy, lol. They should put powdered Lipitor in the salt shakers. Sweet meat treats, for sure.

Let's see.. I likely didn't do well on my mid-term for my other class. :( No amount of studying would have helped with the obscure ideas she wanted us to develop in 1 hour's time. :( Good thing it's only worth 20% of my grade.

Right now... trying to organize the house since the landlord will be here this weekend... and pack. Or at least organize and pack in my mind, LOL.

i had a proffessor do that once. there was a section on ipv6 in our book that was i shit you not 6 sentances long and he asked 16 questions on it. he gave out three different test for the final all the people in my study group got the same test. none of us got better that 70% on the test. when i asked him how he could possible expect us to know the answers he said we should have done more research. i told him fu@# that and he would be hearing from my lawyer. a little of a back story. the guy desinged a network for a company and it did not work certain link on the network had way to much trafffic others none. no sort of load balancing built into the network. the firm i was workin for came in to fix. when i found out he was my teacher called him out on it. so he had a grudge with me. anyway next day me and my lawyer showed up at the deans office gave hime the run down. dean called the proff. in and he could really answer any of the deans questions. he was caught out. he basically had give me an apolige and new test for my study group. which had to be aproved by another teacher. then they fired him.

now the this was tech stuff so he really only can test on the given material. i just dont like when teachers set student up to fail.

hahaha..granite is not really a commodity..Earlier today the deliver driver mentioned how lucky my Dad is to be in a recession proof industry..his wife owns a catering business..and things are really slow. Even wealthy people are skipping things like fancy catering and flowers and what not for parties..and buying party trays at the supermarket. Anyway since we've been so busy lately..my work days have been going by fast which means ski season is getting closer and closer..only another month or so...O.K. back to internet surfing and message board browsing...

it really depends on what you consider rich. the event we do people have been spending slightly less but still in the 30 to 50 grand range.

Rich in Allentown is different than rich in NYC,,,,By rich I mean people making like a couple hundred grand a year..not multi-millionaires....it's all relative. There are definitely alot less elaborate company christmas parties going down on Wall Street this year. Raw Bars might become cheese and crackers...lol
