My good friend Johnny Kisiel died last week, September 2. He was 44.....my age. He had a seizure 4 weeks ago, they took him to the ER, after a day or two they found cancer.......in his brain, in his kidneys, in his lungs, in his liver, all over. 4 weeks later, he was gone.

I'm in a funk and I don't know why. Work is stressful. Who isn't stressed these days? I'm certainly not the only one. My original deal with this company was I bring over a few pieces of valuable business and I work them and I get X amount of money. I did that. They continue to grow and my little piece of business is very...

bro:
It wasnt you, it was the bounce house. I got so upset over how much I didnt have one and how you didnt invite me over to NORTH TONAWANDA that my heart just broke to pieces. I dont think I will ever recover.

I turned 44 yesterdat. Went to a great dinner in a very nice restaurant here...then....
Played in a $225 poker tournament on my birthday Friday night and was knocked out super early. I played horribly, got a bit unlucky and I was gone. Embarrasing, especially since I cashed in the last 4 events I played in, including a win last week. But last night,...

Vegas Report:
We stayed at the MGM, which is one of the nicest casinos I've stayed at in Vegas. Usually, this group I go with always goes with the CHEAPEST place, which was really wearing on my nerves. Fuck, we're going on VACATION, it's okay to splurge a bit. MGM was offering incredible deals, so we compromised and paid a few bucks more a night...

It was a dude.. His name is Dantes
So, yeah, 4th of July weekend went well enough. Party at our friends, Kim and Jerry, was great. They pull out all the stops for this party. Tons of food, beer, booze, a bounce house for the kids, and this guy spends about $2,000 on fireworks. It was actually a very impressive display. Some of the fireworks were city quality and huge. I ended up...

a little, but mostly happy that i did audio in chat. i loves my punk! 
So my band played a gig this past Saturday. It was for a friend of ours who we all went to high school with. He's our age, 42, and he married this smoking hot chick who's like 25. God Bless him. It went great as it usually does, but this crowd was exceptional. Mostly bikers and just generally party people. We started at 6pm and...

But that sounds like a bad ass time man. Glad you had some fun (in some ways lol

Another crazy week. Things should start mellowing out. House refinancing closed 2 weeks ago, which was a huge load off of my back. We got 4-7/8%, which is very nice. Saving over $200 a month, AND our next mortgage payment isn't due until August 15th. Sweet.
Sold 2 of my 3 apartments and they closed Friday. Didn't make much off of them, but a huge...

YAY Repo it's about time you were a chatter

how they could let a yankees fan into chatters is beyond me...
Good day. Lots of work done, finalized the refinancing, which closes Thursday, and got the fines on my apartments reduced to money spent on repairs. I'm selling 2, keeping one. The stress of being a landlord will pretty much go away...
Back on chat today for a few minutes. It was weird. I saw a bunch of new chatters who I didn't recognize at all....

Had a really great time last night at CJ and Kelly's wedding. Hung out with an old group of friends, who I just don't get to see any more. A wild and weird collection of people, from bikers to some old Polish folk to an NHL player to some old hair metal guys to hardcore rockers to cops and then just some regular folk. It...

Just thinking about friends that have left the area. This area, (Buffalo/Niagara), has been economically depressed for 35 years and continues to lose jobs and population every year. I think it is the fastest SHRINKING metro area in the US. Some great friends of mine have had to leave over the years. Pretty much every single friend I went to college with has...

Snow is the hottest SG on the planet, and may be the hottest women ever. Look her up. My Type with a capital T. Also, is a dead ringer for my ex from forever ago...
Well, the party came off without a hitch. She was surprised, the weather was superb, and we had a great turnout. Plenty of food, beer, wine and booze. It surpassed her expectations, which is tough to do. Yeah, high maintenance is an understatement when it comes to her. Heh....
The cleanup sucked. The last guests left at midnight and I went out back and spent...

A maple tree. Wow. That shit can last forever (100-300 years). That is pretty cool.
Busy weekend coming up. Planning parties is not my forte. I have a fuckload of work to do tonight and tomorrow morning, and all of includes moving shit from the garage to the basement or the back patio, AND I have a bum ankle, so this is going to suck royally. My friends Jay and Tony are coming over tomorrow morning to help out, Thank...

she better appreciate your greatness damn her.
I am here to support you just as much as you are to support me.
I wish life came with a reason sometime, but then what would make each of our lives different and special. Hopefully you remember the good times you had with him.
to the above.. *hugs* nothing i can say will sound remotely right.. all trite and cliche. so accept an e-hug, and know that i'm thinking of you and sending you a bit of love and light.
i truly know how hard it is. there is no reason to it. just impossible to understand.
