So I'm Sad but Happy...


I think that the snow patrol site let me down b/c i heard nothing of their show at bowery ballroom. and of course now it's sold out and tix are going for ridiculous prices online.

But, Eisley is playing the day after and couldn't pass that up, considering they're 13 bux a pop!! and the whole DuPree family is playing now...check out them out out at myspace.

anyone got spare snow patrol tix?

OMG!! is it 3 months away already????

Yes, my friends, dust off your helmets, check your tire pressure and shine up those neon spandex b/c come May 7th, it's the Five Boro Bike Tour!!

And let me tell you folks, it was so miserable last year that i just can't wait to do it again this year. of course, this year, there is no way in hell i'm heading to Staten Island. This year, Brooklyn Bridge to South Street Seaport to Radio Mexico for some delish margharitas. nice.

(in case, your wondering...i'm the one in the back on the bike.)

How Bad Do I Want To Do This?

just browsing through my latest issue of Bluff Magazine, do i notice an ad for this new way to blow my tax refund. for 2 days and $1700 plus later, i can learn from the pros and then play in a little tournament to win a seat at a World Poker Tour Event

of course, had i the lack of commitment to school and if the SN would be OK w/ me becoming a gambloholic, i'd have the nuts and be off like a prom dress.

alas this isn't the bizarro universe and i didn't win powerball, but i can dream...all it takes is $1700, a room at Foxwoods and a dream.

(please note that this is an artist's rendition of the fiance and not the actual person)

Congratulations!!

I am pleased to announce that one of my closest friends from the ole' hood (childhood, that is) is now engaged to his number one Honeybunny. They came all the way up from that savage land known as North Carolina to be with their family and friends to share in this joyous occasion. fortunately, for us, the entire event will take place up here in the savage lands of New Yawk, in the even more savage 'burbs of Long Island.

I am happy for the wonderful couple, and am honored to take part in the big day as one of Mr. Buff's Groomsman.

apologies to Mr. B., as i don't have pics of your lovely fiance and being the artistic chap that i am, came up with your little lady in strikingly accurate detail.

can't even tell the difference. i hate to shamelessly plug m'self but, i'll be on the corner of 42nd and b'way offering my services of sketching portraits to tourists.

My sister likes to take photos and now she wants to share them with you! feel free to click her newly added link.

or for the lazy...here.
