New word of the day: anencephaly... i think that's how it's spelled.

It's a strange and sad condition where a baby is born with like it's brain missing or something.

On happier note, I've been playing really good floor hockey.  My new team that I'm on has all of my friends from my old team.  We're pretty good! We've played two games and won them both decisively. Plus, I've got three goals in two games!

I also bought the Meat Puppets' first record and Dead Horse's second one a few days ago. I orderd "Aenima" by Tool and "City" by Strapping Young Lad.

HEADLINE: JOCKS ARE COCKSUCKERS (well at least one is...)

Last week's hockey game sucked, we lost and I didn't even score ( I wish I could score with some hot chicks....).

But yesterday's (Jan. 20)  game sucked even worse. First of all, I actually played pretty decent game, BUT I didn't score anything, AND my team lost. 

PLUS....this dick-for-brains jock on the other team named Dave Fingerlow didn't like how my friend and teamate Andrew was playing. Dave was being a fag because Andrew was elbowing him every time he tried to take Andrew's stick away. I don't understand why Dave was trying to do that, we're just playing for fun. So anyway, when the game was over, Dave was being a total douche about the way Andrew was playing. Andrew said to Dave in a joking manner something like "You got a problem? Let's go". Well Dave, being the ass-licker that he is, didn't catch the sarcasm in Andrew's voice, and started to throw punches. Andrew kept stepping backwards and Dave kept missing, and Dave eventually fell down. Another guy, Glenn, broke up the fight (if you want to call it that). In all that time, Dave was calling Andrew a "faggot". I guess he was thinking about gay people during the entire confrontation because that's all he ever talked about.

So the fight ended and there was some order restored. Me, Andrew and most of my friends exit out of the building to wait for our rides home. Then Dave and some of his friends exit too, to get to their car I guess. Dave starts talking shit to Andrew as he walks to the parking lot. Andrew talks back too. Then I tell Dave, "Just go home,". He gets all pissed off and tells me to "shut up or I'll fuck you up". Typical jock response, right? So then I say "Fuck you." Dave just keeps talking shit about Andrew and that was the end of that.

I don't have a problem with most jocks, in fact there are about 3 football players that I consider friends.  But I do have a problem with the ones who think their shit doesn't stink and believe that they have some right to act like pricks.

Politics: HOW TO SAVE BUFFALO, NY FROM CERTAIN DOOM.

I live north of Buffalo, NY, and there aren't any jobs around here. There's nothing to do and all the stores are in the malls of Amherst and Town of Tonawanda. Which sucks because I hate the mall. The city of Buffalo needs money to lower taxes to attract businesses. It seems impossible. But I have a solution.

Prostitution. Now hear me out on this one. It's a good idea because the only legalized prostitution is found in Nevada. So why not legalize it here, but regulate it some how so that prostitution is limited to Main Street and Chippewa Street in Buffalo. That will bring people from the suburbs into downtown Buffalo. Not only that, but I am positive that tourism would increase too. We'd be the only other place where prostituion is legal in the U.S.A. That means tightly regulated, clean prostitutes. Plus, the city, county and state would recieve tons of money from taxes. Heck, the city of Buffalo should consider opening a city owned brothel, that way they could make even more money (I don't know if that's legal, but so what?!).

Prostitution is good for business, too. You'll have a handfull of brothels on Main and Chippewa. You'll also have strip bars, porno theatres, sex shops and porn studios(maybe). Don't forget that there's going to be a casino, so maybe after someone wins big, they'll want to party. With the influx of tourists/white people, new more mainstream stores could open as well. Eventually the prostitutes will want a parade or something, which is cool because beside the Taste of Buffalo, there are no cultural events in Buffalo. And guess what, parades make money for businesses.

As with anything, there are some drawbacks. Buffalo for one is an ugly city. But with the taxes from the brothels and assorted new business that will surely come, the city could invest some much needed money in beautification. Build parks, statues, fountains, something. Another drawback is crime. Buffalo has recently been laying off police officers. But once again, with new tax money,  the city can bounce back and rehire those that had laid off.  The final drawback that I can think of is desecration of family values in the area, which is legitimate. Don't forget that the city has undeveloped water front.  I would build an amusement park there (screw Darien Lake and Martin's Fantasy Island!) and leave to rest undeveloped so the city can have a nice, clean beach.  Eventually, when Ralph Wilson Stadium becomes completely out dated and useless, I'd build a stadium actually within the city of Buffalo, as close to downtown as humanly possible.
