Number 5 is Alive

As part of the Jeff-Fischer.Net 2006 All-Star Spectacular Year-End Blowoutâ„¢ sponsored by Lexusâ„¢, I’ll be compiling top five lists of the most important categories of human existence. Namely, movies, television, books, music, and pies. I’ll have a new list each week, sure to be thought-provoking and hilarious at once. If you have any suggestions for future top five lists, send them along! Exclamation point!

Coming Soon!

  • Top Five Television Shows of 2006
  • Top Five Albums of 2006
  • Top Five Songs of 2006
  • Top Five Movies of 2006
  • Top Five Pies of All-Time

Arboreal Devastation

Thank Jebus, I finally have Internet and cable TV access again, in time to give you a glimpse into the devastating effects of the Columbus Day Blizzard of 2006. As of this writing, there are still around 250-300,000 homes without power, and many, many more with extensive damage to their properties. Somehow, my apartment complex escaped the outages, and we appear to be the only ones within a 2-block radius that still have power up here in North Buffalo.

I’ve uploaded some of the images I took over the past couple of days; you can take a look here. Buffalo’s going to look a lot different after this; the lasting effects of this storm will be apparent for generations as the city’s trees slowly grow back again. Truly a shame.

$*()&*#%!!!

First Snow

As you can see, today marked Buffalo’s first of many blizzards sure to envelop us this winter season. Downed trees and branches also marked the roads I drove home on, making for an incredibly dangerous, Frogger-like adventure along the way. Add the nutso’s who forget how to drive as soon as a flake of snow hits the ground and that makes for a warm welcome to another Buffalo winter.

**UPDATE 9:45PM**

First Snow

Yeah, so I was outside documenting this chaos for you fine people and I heard a branch start to crack above me. In the scramble to get out of its way, I slid on the sidewalk and bit it hard. My elbow feels FANTASTIC.

Coming Attractions

I’ve been slacking a bit as of late, with more than 10 assorted posts and movie reviews in various states of completion in the queue. I hope to put the finishing touches on about half of them very shortly, so continue to await them with your collectively bated breath.

Coming soon:

  • Southern California Trip Report: tales of my encounters with a surly, cigarette-smoking Chewbacca, getting into gun battles amid world-infamous L.A. traffic, and enjoying World Cup soccer amid countless numbers of illegal aliens rooting for Mexico.
  • Movie Reviews: A History of Violence, Hellboy, Constantine, The Aristocrats, and more! I need to see a few more awful movies, as I think I enjoy writing reviews of the scathing variety more.
  • Quotable: a new department that will feature some of my favorite quotes from the week in sports, news, entertainment, etc. I haven’t quite figured out how to present this yet. Stay tuned.
  • Pearl Jam – Camden II 5.28.06: my long-awaited review of the second Camden, NJ show from way back in May. “The waiting drove me mad…”
  • Hot Nude Pics every Friday!

See how much you have to look forward to? With such great promise in store, you should be sending me wads of cash in the mail!

Stubs McGee

I just got a scanner, so I’ve gone nuts and scanned a bunch of ticket stubs to better provide a full archive of my life’s experiences. I know you’re all fascinated with just what I’ve done during the long, sordid tale I call “life,” so take a look and comment on my trip to the Herkimer diamond mine or why I was sitting in a “Non-Drinking” section for the AFC Championship game way back when.
