El Gallo - Sawmill Road in West Haven

El Gallo is the name of the new Mexican place on Sawmill Road in West Haven that I mentioned yesterday. Here's the verdict...good food, relatively inexpensive, the resturant is clean and the staff is very friendly...like I said before, we'll be back.

junkie

i'm about half asleep, and all i can think to say is...i'm a junkie. not drugs or even alcohol...but other, not so obvious things that are all too obvious if you take the time to look.

on the bright side of life...went to the new ikea in new haven today. very cool. if you've never been they have completely furnished rooms set up that you can buy, they deliver, setup and install. very cool.

and...last but not least, the new mexican place in west haven is great. it's not necessarly authentic mexican, it's more like mexican for the gringos, but it's really good. we'll be going back soon...i'll post the name when i see it tomorrow.

i'm not sure why exactly, i'm pretty sure that i'm the only one reading this, but what the hell right?

Manson, Part II

She's like the lover that leans over and whispers in your right ear while she's behind you and you know, you just know, that you shouldn't be with her...but you just can't leave.

Manson, Shirley Manson

Ahhhhhh.  Don't you just love her.  When I hear her sing, it's like she's my own personal pied piper leading me to my destruction and I couldn't care less.  Her voice is like bleeding out in a bathtub.  Ah...sweet oblivion.

politicians

i was just watching one of those billion all day news channels and they just had the liberman / animatronic robot senator chick press conference about the 911 report and how they think they should "get crackin"  uh, well...no shit.
 
i swear, and this may in fact be because i am an upper tier member of the x gen, but i was watching their lips move and thinking that they were all full of shit.  all of them.  i was watching their lips move and just not getting any kind of sincerity and all, barely any sense they they were breathing.  it's like being in it's a fucking small world at disney.  all those little robot kids...stuck on endless loops of bullshit.  god help us...if there is a god of course

did you ever try to figure out what the hell you're doing with out having all the facts?  "dear god i love that feeling," he says, dripping with sarcasm. 
 
i'm debating on a home equity loan or line of credit and basically i'm finding that if you plan on defaulting on your loan, you loose your house....no shit sherlock.  what about those of us who have no intention of defaulting and just don't want to get fucked by the "man" as it were?  where the hell can we find anything remotely resembling decent, un-slanted advice?

ouch...

so i went back to work today after taking last week off.  yes, i know that i'm entirely too lucky to even have paid vacation, so please have a nice big cup of shut the fuck up.  i haven't had a real vacation, and last week was not one, since before i moved to florida and moved back to connecticut.  for those not playing along at home, that was over five years ago...and it wasn't really a vacation.  i met this girl, i saved my money for a while and moved to florida for three years.  married the girl and moved back to connecticut.  anyway, not the point...i moved down there without a job.  smart move, i know...but that's why i saved my $$$.  so i didn't work for something like a month...and i hate to say it, but if i remembered correctly, i think i liked it.  since then it had been a series of shit jobs in florida with no real vacation to speak of...except when we got married and came up to connecticut a month later for a reception my parents had for us, but that was on my dime not the company.  so i land this great gig right when we get back, but this position in finance makes it really hard to get out of here for more than a mental health day at a time.  the company's closed last monday for the forth so i was off for four days.      FOUR DAYS IS NOT ENOUGH TIME TO MAKE ME WANT, REALLY WANT, TO BE BACK AT WORK...ESPECIALLY WHEN MY BOSS CALLED ME SEVERAL TIMES EVERYDAY WITH THE EXCEPTION OF FRIDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

f9/11

so we went to see the michael moore flick last night.

very disturbing film. i already thought bush was a twit
and that i'd rather vote for a monkey than him this fall,
but that pretty much did it for me.

i would advise everyone to go and check it out, ass or
elephant.

you do need to realize that everyone has an agenda and that
goes double for moore. he wants bush out...and probably
strung up, but who's counting.

anywhoooo, regardless of his agenda, it shows you an
alternate version of the past 4 years. the initial
sequence after the credits was probably the most disturbing
portrait of 911 since the day itself and the footage didn't
even...well just go see it and you'll understand.

the most damning things that are shown in this film are the
media items we didn't get to see, want to see or take the
time to see.

----------

fahrenheit 9/11 left me with the following impressions:

we are a nation with and extremely short memory and a bad
case of a.d.d.

we, as americans, tend to let a lot of things slip by
because we believe that people are acting in our best
interest, and that's not always the case.

america hasn't changed much since it's inception...we've
always been about money and power and it is an unfortunate
legacy which keeps reinventing itself with each generation.

there are people in this country who BELIEVE IN AND LOVE
this country a lot more than those of us who are content to
sit at home or in a darkened movie theater.

americans believe deeply that we have the best country in
the world...the most true part of that statement is that we
have it soooooooo much better that everywhere else.

some people in america don't really have it sooooooo much
better that everywhere else.

i want to stop short of saying that we, as a nation, had it
coming...but we are most definitely paying for our past,
collective, actions. while we may not be the people making
the decisions...which was very much the case in the last
election...we, at least to the rest of the world, are
guilty by association.

it solidified the idea in my mind that no one knows why the
hell we're really in iraq, that we were lied to about why
we went in, that there were plans on the table for a long,
long time to go after iraq and that the most plausible
reason in w's mind for going to war against iraq was that
saddam tried to kill his father.

-----------

ok, so now that i've established that i'm a bleeding heart
liberal...just go see the movie and decide for your self.
isn't that really the only thing that matters?

Pole dancer quits because she's allergic to the pole

British pole dancer Donna Cleeve has been forced to quit her job because she's allergic to the metal pole. The 20-year-old from Portsmouth developed a red rash after each show before she realized nickel used in the poles was to blame. "It's hard to look sexy when your legs and body are inflamed. I tried to ignore it, but in the end it wasn't worth the pain," she told London's Sun. She's now given up her dancing and taken a job in sales.
