Kaiju at the Warsaw

Kaiju Big Battel, need I say more? Years ago back in 2003 me and Dan wanted to head to Boston and see Kaiju. Turns out we never got around to it and KBB faded into the mist for me. Luckily out of nowhere I got a invite for a KBB show in Brooklyn at the Warsaw. I basically bought my ticket on the spot. This day was full of fun. We both got off of work around noon and took a train to wood side where we transferred. Some brass monkeys went down on the train and I had to leak like a monster so we found a place I could go before we jumped on the subway. Conveniently We were right down the road from 5 pointz and we didn't even know it. I've been trying to get to 5 pointz for a few years now and haven't gotten around to it, We were just walking back to the subway and waltzed right on by, It was awesome to see, especially because we didn't even plan on it.
After this we head to Brooklyn to get near the show so we know our where abouts. We were looking for something to eat and found this awesome awesome awesome authentic Polish restaurant. Unbelievably cheap and unbelievably good. I got hunters stew which was a mix of meats and cabbage and other vegetables for 5 bucks. Dan got pork loin potatoes and cabbage for the same. We split an order of perogies that were delicious. 24oz's of Polish beers for 3 bucks.

And for the main event, KBB. We wait on line and toke up a bit and grab one last polish beer. This show was incredible, A hundred times better then I thought it was going to be like from watching the DVD. Tons of classic heroes and villains came out and a bunch of ones I didn't recognize either. There was Dusto bunny, American beetle, Cycloptopuss, Kung foo chicken noodle, One of the plantains, French toast, Hell monkey and many more. Entertaining story line with top notch monster wrestling. So good.

Sushi and Pumpkins

Went out for a sushi night with Natalie Shawn and Meg. Started off with some Ika Yaki, which is sauteed squid. This was real tasty with a BBQ flavor aftertaste. After this I had Yakitori which was pretty typical. For my main I got a triple roll, tuna salmon and yellowtail wrapped in soy paper with mango slices. This was awesome, mango is my favorite fruit and having it tied in with my sushi was delicious. A few rounds of sake and were good to go.
So after Sushi ya we went to this bar called croxleys and got nice and finished, some Delerium Tremens, Hop Head, Apricot Wheat, and its time to go home.
The next day the four of us went out for some pumpkins and fall fun. We stopped at this wrap place called Wrap it up and I got a nice Mexican burger with mango salsa on it, Again cant get enough mango.
