Showing posts with the label erie and why i should be mayor

does erie just really suck at advertising ANYTHING

seriously what is up with nearly every local commercial it looks like a four-year-old with a learning disorder put them together? I mean we have some good local graphic design programs. WTF

so erie week begins.

I decided, because Al and I thought it would be interesting to do all Mila Kunis-things last week, to write about Erie and local things this week. I mean there are some things of interest. strong emphasis on "some." I guess the zoo opened yesterday to 5000 people. I have not been to the zoo since I worked there. I am not sure it's much different. MARJORIE, the mistress of my heart, is being sentenced today for her role in the pizza bombing fiasco. of course she is going to get off easy because she is pretty . also, let's all take dating advice from Charlie Sheen. SERIOUSLY or just general life advice. really.

if i ran things! (and let's be honest I SHOULD)

- There would be a concert series at Erie's bayfront in which they brought in small up-and-coming bands, not neccessarily indie but all different genres. like, for example, and this might be a bit of a stretch now, I THINK WE COULD BRING IN LAURA MARLING IF WE REALLY TRIED. but we don't try. we settle. Erie has a cool vibe to it, sometimes- it'd be nice to capitalize on it! I am sick of going to the Block Party and Eight Great Tuesday line-ups and seeing a bunch of ... well, you know. low expectations are key I guess. - There would be also concerts at Jerry Uht. why the F not! - someone would put a Japanese steakhouse on the bayfront and get rid of that awful place at the mall. - THERE WOULD BE CYBER CAFES AT THE MALL WHY THE F NOT! - public transit would go until midnight! - THE POST OFFICE DOWNTOWN WOULDN'T BE CLOSING :( - also, the Maxim hot 100 would only include Marion Cotillard, Emily Haines, Gwen and Betty White. oh and J-Lewis. /rant
