Finally....we did it
CurrentMusic:
"I don't Love You" - My Chemical
RomanceMood: Kinda shitty...but
there's nothing more I can do.
So this past weekend Sean,
Sciullo and I finally lived out our dream of attending Wrestlemania. It was
easily the best weekend of my entire life thus far, and even holds a flame to
senior trip, and spring break senior year. We've been trying to go to
Wretlemania for a few years now, and we finally were able to pull it off thanks
to a travel package offered through the WWE. A few months ago either Sean of
Jeff suggested we get the travel package, and we all agreed on Silver. This was
the best choice I've ever made.
Period.We were set to leave
early Friday morning, around 9am, so Sean came over Thursday night and slept
over. We both hardly slept at all in anticipation of the upcoming trip. By the
way, I'll have pictures posted in a few days, I just need to get the cord from
my pops to hook the camera up to my computer. So anyway, Friday morning we went
to Sciullo's and picked him up and started on our 5 hour journey to the motor
city, Detroit, Michigan. I gave Sciullo the luxury of shotgun for the entire
trip up there, because I was just enjoying the view from the back seat the
entire way up. Lemme just say this, Ohio is the most boring fucking state in
the world to drive through. No hills, no mountains, nothing...just boring as
hell. At one point in the ride we all hated each other, but then no more than
30 seconds later loved each other again...it was just a joke tho, haha. The
ride up was mainly filled with Wrestlemania predictions, the sentence game, and
tunes by those guys known as "The
Beatles."We eventually made
it to Detroit, no thanks to Sean's crazy swerve driving, haha. We found our
hotel and I damn near shat myself when I saw it. The place we stayed was more
of a giant complex with 5 buildings, 4 of which were offices, and one was the
hotel. We got there around 3 and our room wasn't even ready yet, so we just had
to sit in the lobby with our luggage. Sean and I talked to this cop outside
with the best "I'm going to fuck around with you" attitude, and parked his car.
So we get back and Sciullo has all of our gifts/tickets from WWE ready. We
waited a little longer in the lobby, and then our room was finally ready...on
the 56th floor of the hotel. By no means am I afraid of heights, but holy shit
was this crazy to look down from. From our window you could see across this
lake to Canada, or into the city, where Ford Field and the baseball stadium
were. The view was amazing, and we could see for miles upon miles. Our hotel
was so bad ass though, the beds were comfortable as fuck...but there was only
two. Oh well, we came up with a plan so each person would have a bed to
themselves one night. We put all the food Sean and Jeff brought on ice, which
we used our sink for, and a bag in our tub, haha. At that point we just kind of
layed around the hotel and waited for the time we'd be leaving for the world
premiere of Steve Austin's movie, "The Condemned." Throughout this I'm gonna
mention some funny things that happened, that I wrote down..here's the first. I
was being an ass, and sat on Sean, which was followed by this comment, "I felt
your asshole separate nicely on my leg." Probly won't be funny to anyone else,
but I guess you just had to be there for it. So we were hanging out and just
talking about how awesome the weekend was gonna be and I said to Sean, "dude,
we're here...why did we do it..." and before Sean could say anything, I said,
"cuz we wanted to." We were also talking about next year's WM, and how we want
to go, and for those of you who don't know, Sean may be getting a nice chunk of
change pretty soon in a lawsuit, so we talked about going next year and Sciullo
says to Sean, "we'll see how far your lawsuit takes us." We all got a good
laugh about it. So this was all while we were getting ready and putting on our
suits for the movie premiere. We hop on the DPM(Detroit People Mover) and head
over to the Fox Theater...or so we thought. We make our way over to the theater
and see a line of gothic looking kids wearing all black...Sciullo says, "man
this is a rough crowd." We agree, and stand in line...a few minutes later I
hear an oh so familiar whistle...I look over and see the crazy vendor from
Mellon Arena, TC. We were blown away that he was in Detroit, but we loved it.
So we're standing in line, and eventually realize...we're standing in line for
the STONE SOUR concert, wearing suits. No wonder all the people looked at us
funny. So we went into the Fox Theater and we're finding seats, and Sean takes
a picture. Here we go...security guy comes over and takes Sean outside, makes
him throw his batteries away for his camera, bummer. We saw a bunch of
wrestlers n shit, and that was sweet. The movie ended up kicking ass, so go see
it. After the movie we got back on the DPM and headed back to the hotel. While
on the DPM Sean says, "dude where do we get off." Without even thinking, and
not trying to be a dick I immediately shot back, "same place we got on." This
got a laugh from the other people around us, and I felt bad, haha. We ended up
back in our room and were hungry so we went and looked for some food, saw a guy
walking through the lobby by chance with pizza, and got the number. Funny side
story...Sean got hit on by a gay guy Thursday who gave Sean his number...for
some reason, Friday comes, and it was still in Sean's pocket. So we were
talking about it later and I said, "he had this gay mans pocket in his number."
Ooops...I fucked up, haha. Eventually we got tired and went to sleep in
preparation of Saturday mornings activities...and then something happened around
4am....but that's saved for the next edition.
Suckers.Good day for
now.-Steve

New Crew > Old Crew...kind of...
Current Music:
"Lipstick and Bruises" - Lit Mood:
Excited, ready for full out
SUMMER
So Kennywood started
on Friday and I gotta admit, I came into this year pessimistic about how fun it
would be or how long I would be at the park this year. However, even after just
the first three days, I honestly think this summer is gonna blow away last year
in some ways. Some things can never be replaced though, like the karrousel
every sunday night, tellin Darius he licks balls every night leaving the park,
or going to Friday's with the old crew and watching JPH stuff 13 lemon slices in
his mouth at once. Haha, or when JPH jumped in the fountain outside of cold
stone at the water front, I just can't see stuff like that happening this year.
Plus I'm gonna miss a few people who had been with me since my first year at the
park, without them I don't think I woulda lasted more than a year. Anyway, now
that I just gave a fake acceptance speech about nothing, this year is gonna be
awesome, I can already tell. I wasn't sure how well I'd fit in with a new crew,
because I remember my first year I was kind of just, to myself most of the first
month. I think bein a manager last year and opening up and just talkin to
everyone helped though. I think this summer will be better because there's not
anyone that I'm like "wow, I can't stand this person." Last year I had at least
4 people like that everyday that I just DID NOT want to talk to or see.
Hopefully I don't start to hate anyone this year, because I just like to chill,
and have fun. Honestly though, no matter how cool the crew is this
year...nothing will top my crew from summer 04...we were just fucking
awesome. On top of working rides
this year I'll be working sound tech on Fridays and Saturdays. So far it's
pretty sweet, and I get to work with Bill or Darius...wear khaki shorts, a
supervisor shirt and have a bunch of keys to a bunch of things. So I guess
getting demoted worked in my favor in a way in the end. I transferred to a new
crew with rides that aren't for 5 year olds and 65 year olds...and now I'm in
the sound dept. I guess I can thank the supervisors who demoted me, haha.
The first weekend of KW was sweet
though...First of all, during training I said I would laugh my ass off if I saw
someone fall in the lagoon...and I already got to see it, thanks
Adam..haha...Saturday night we had the Racer rockin like you won a million
dollars if your train ended up winning. Of course there was some drama, but
seriously...it's Kennywood, what else can you expect? Sunday was the shit, we
closed at 9 and the end of the night might have been the best thing ever. We're
in the tent, talking about how bad it hurts to get ball tapped...and ebony asks
why doesn't it hurt when guys are...and she really did this...::makes motion of
guy having sex::....now keep in mind as she's doing this Tom, supervisor, just
enters the tent and sits down on the bench...as soon as he sat down he stood up
and just threw his arms up in the air and goes "seriously, i don't even want to
know"...which led to Ebony falling over from laughing. So basically, I might
have to wear a cup to work now because they tried to ball tap all the guys on
the way out....remember, tittie twisters will be handed out on a regular basis
if it comes down to it. For real
though, our crew acts like a crew that's been together for a few months already
and it's only been a weekend. I was talkin to Erica in Racer booth and said,
hopefully I can take some "kennywood friends" and make them "real friends" from
this crew, like I have in the
past..haha
I'm gonna get
rollin though...gotta wake up at 6am in order to make it to the park by 7 so we
can dig up some shit and wire in the rapids/clubhouse to the park
sound....laaaaaaaater

I'll Russian Leg Sweep Your Mom
So training at Kennywood has come and
gone, I think I'm good to go on all the rides. I'll probly end up screwing up
something, although it's kinda hard to screw up at boats, and Racer is kind of a
joke...but Skycoaster is crazy. We open this weekend, so hopefully I can smooth
everything out that I'm unsure about then. I dig my new crew, everyone seems
pretty cool so far. However, I also thought the same thing in my first year at
the park when I met everyone. So hopefully everyone stays cool, and they don't
fag it up, cuz then I'll be real
pissed. I started up a website
recently that Sean, Mike, Nick, JP and I will be posting stuff on. I posted
something small to get the site off the ground, and am just waiting on everyone
else to start sending me shit so I can post it. I have a feeling though, that
nobody will send me anything, and this will be another useless attempt at
getting a cool website going. Everyone always bitches that they want a place to
post stuff, and they don't have anywhere to post...well here's a website, here's
where you can post...let's get some shit rolling.
http://homepage.mac.com/sikntwstd8/irlsym
check it out, lemme know what you think. If you wanna contribute to the site,
lemme know and I'll see what I can
do. Now onto something else that
inspired me to write this blog entry...the movie, Silent Hill. I don't care who
you are, that was a damn good movie. Sure, it may have been a little difficult
to understand at times, but come on people! When they show people walking in
the same place, at the same time but in different environments...you gotta
understand, THEY'RE DEAD. I hated the ending too, there was noooooo need for
that ending, but I'm told that the studio decided to add that in, because the
general public wouldn't understand it if they ended without that cheapness.
Well, BOO HOO!! There's a ton of movies that end and people are like "wtf?"
kinda like ahh, THE RING(1). That movie was fucking TERRIBLE, like...FUCK!
I've never seen more loose ends and confusing turns in a movie than were in The
Ring. I absolutely hated it, but I loved the 2nd one, so oh well...if you're
gonna go see a movie like Silent Hill, take someone who is partially
knowledgeable about movies so they can explain it to you. Or you can just not
see it at all, your choice, your
money. Another thing that pisses
me off...Tina(new KW crew), mentioned this to me the other day and it fired me
up. So you're in a grocery store right, and you're lookin for some chips.
Yeah, you found the perfect bag and you pay for it, get home and open the bag
and....WHAT?! HALF OF A BAG OF CHIPS?! That's some bullshit right there.
Either fill the rest of the bag, or make the fucking bag smaller, quit faking me
out. It would probly save the companies money if they made the bags smaller
too. If they want to make the bags that big, fill them with more chips and sell
them for a little more. I just want a fucking bag of chips, that is full. Is
that so hard for a company to do? To NOT rip someone off? I guess
so... The Flyers are losing 5-0
right now, and I NEVER EVER EVER thought I'd be pissed off that they're losing.
I am though, and it's f'n weird. I hate Buffalo with a passion, and I gotta
cheer for RJ because he's the hometown kid playing in the NHL. Fuck Buffalo,
and Ottawa...I hope they both get smoked in the next
round.-SteveCurrent:Music:

So it's been a while...
Wow, last time I wrote was really
December 4, 2005. I really had nothing important to write about between then
and now, but it's almost summer again, and summer is the shit. We had a shit
load of cool ass parties at Chesterfield and I'm sure a few of you were there to
experience them. If not, there will be a ton this summer, so you'll get a
chance to be there. This winter was pretty cool though, finished up another
semester at CCAC and I'm headin to Cal U in the fall for Communications -
Radio/Television. So I'm lookin forward to goin there eventually. I'm on a new
crew this summer at Kennywood, and so far it seems like it's gonna be the shit.
Yeah, I'll miss workin the AutoRace cuz it was fun as hell and I knew it like
the back of my hand. However, it'll be cool to get away from those rides and
move onto some new rides. You'll be able to find me at Skycoaster/Racer/Paddle
Boats...so if anyone is comin to the park and wants to visit me, you'll know
where. The playoffs are going on now, and neither the Pens or Leafs are in this
year, which is depressing as hell. The worst part is, I've found myself
actually hoping the Flyers win, but ONLY so RJ can get his name on a cup.
They're down 2-0 in the series, but I think they can come back and pull off the
win. For the record, fuck Ottawa. ECW is coming back, that's easily the best
thing I've heard in years. For those of you who don't know what ECW is, you can
just go ahead and dive off a cliff. If it comes back in the capacity I'm
imagining, it's gonna
be....extreme....
Yeah, this
entry sucks so far, but I just gotta get back in my groove and I'll be good to
go. First time I hear of some shitty story, or something that's funny as
hell...I'll be sure to update....g'day
mates...

IT'S CALLED A CHRISTMAS TREE
Disclaimer: I say some things in this post
that may offend you, sorry...but hey, shit happens. I make reference to a
certain religion, because 99% of the time, it's them
bitching...
So I sign on AIM the other day, and I'm
just lookin around online and I find this link to a poll that didn't really piss
me off at first, so I took the poll. The poll read,
What do you call
it? Christmas
Tree Holiday
Tree
Obviously I voted for
Christmas tree, and it won like 97% to 3% out of 300,000 some odd people at the
time I took it. So I got kinda fired up that even 3% of that 300,000 called it
a holiday tree. Who in blue hell decided to even attempt to change the name of
a Christmas tree to Holiday tree? I'll tell you who, some JACKASS up in Boston
that thought the city calling their tree a Christmas Tree was dated and not
politically correct anymore. Well you know what the Mayor of the city did when
some group decided it wasn't politcally correct? That bad ass dude called it a
CHRISTMAS TREE, while they lit the mother fucker up in the town square. This
king who donated the tree said that if he knew the tree wasn't going to be
called a Christmas tree, he would have fed it to the wood chipper. That right
there is a cool ass dude. Rather than donate his big ass tree to be called
something dumb, he would just toss it away. Kudos sir. For once, Christian
conservative groups are doing the right thing and saying that not calling it a
Christmas tree will belittle the holiday, and I agree with them 100%. The group
that wants it changed might as well go after Chanuka or however the fuck you
spell it. Why can't we call it a Christmas tree, which it is, yet Jews can call
their candelabra, a Menorah. Why do they get a special name for their holiday?
How come they can call a dreidel that? Why isn't it just a top? Because that's
all it is, a modified top. What's next? They're gonna start calling Christmas
presents, Holiday presents? That is where I draw the fucking line, because
that's just down right trying to change part of a religion. Might as well not
even call it Christmas, just call it X-Mas, so everyone can celebrate it and
we're not excluding anybody. Why is it that the average white man is always
screwed out so that everything can be politically correct? Or maybe we'll
change Thanksgiving break to Turkey Break so that it doesn't exclude any of the
people in the United States that don't celebrate Thanksgiving. Better yet,
let's change Independence Day(4th of July) to just United States Freedom Day, so
that all the dirty Mexicans and other illegal immigrants in our country aren't
offended. Since our country seems to care about their well being so much.
"Fuck the people who came here legally, let's help out all the fuck bags that
snuck over the border and are here illegally and taking work from our legal
citizens." Fuck that shit. It's called Christmas, they're Christmas presents,
it's a Christmas tree, and it's still known as Christmas break to kids all
around the country. Politically correct? WHO THE FUCK CARES, GET THE FUCK OUT
IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT.
Oh
yeah, can't call it Christmas Story, Christmas Vacation or Christmas
music....soon they're gonna be Holiday Story, Holiday Vacation and Holiday
Music...and all Holiday music will be edited to say holiday any place it says
Christmas. Ralphy doesn't want a Red Rider BB Gun for Christmas, he wants it
for X-Mas....FUCK THAT, IT'S STILL
CHRISTMAS!!!
UPDATE:
SNL followed up on the original story from Boston, and RUINED that shit, they
had Christmas songs, religious ones, and changed the words, and it was
hilarious.
And would it hurt
you jerks to comment on my posts? I see that 904 people have read my blog, and
I only have like 7 comments total...COME
ON!!!
