Horseheads got its name in 1798 when settlers coming into the valley came upon the bleached skulls of pack horses left behind by General John Sullivan after his battle against the Six Nation of the Iroquois.

Home of the #1 Olive Garden in the country
I was at work shelving some stuff in the travel section when I started to flip through a guide to upstate NY, Off the Beaten Path: NewYork, and found this bit of trivia:

New Years
hi everyone,
so isabel has suggested a new years eve activity for everyone and i think it sounds like a pretty good deal. she can get us vip passes to Club Deep in NYC through her old modeling agency. here are the details:
--our own vip section
--no admission fee or cover charge
--open bar until 11
--free hot and cold buffets all night
--free bottle of champagne at midnight
--tickets to the after party at Capitale (some fancy pants club with a free breakfast after 2am)
--we break up into groups of three or four and each group pays between $200 and $300 for a bottle of liquor. my guess is that it's so expsnsive because we wouldn't have to pay for anything else the rest of the night. so, depending on the size of the group, we would each be paying around $60 for all of this stuff. we also don't pay until we get to the bar. once we get to the bar we will split up into our groups and choose which bottle of liquor each group wants to pay for/spilt. we also get free mixers to mix our drinks with and a personal waitress in our vip room.
isabel needs a head count by November 30, so if you want to go, either post on the blog or send me an email so i can send her a list of who's coming. if your name is on that list after the 30th, you'll be counted as definitely coming. also please let me know if your gf/roommates/etc. will be attending. also, the party is supposed to be fancy, so you can't wear jeans but you def. don't have to wear a suit. sam, i think kilts are optional. onesies are not allowed.
here is a link to the club's website so you can check out pics of the place: http://deepnewyork.com/
let me know if you're interested!
love

Food For Thought
Just a quick note. I've been catching up on pop-culture current affairs this morning and I read that Kirstie Alley appeared on Oprah in a bikini to show how much weight she's lost.
Let's forget about the fact that, before she shilled for Jenny Craig, Alley's message was "I'm fat and I'm happy with it" (she even starred in the aptly-named 'Fat Actress' on Showtime, and was quoted saying she'd rather be 'a fat-ass mom' than 'a Beverly Hills skinny ass bitch').
Let's forget that, it's not as important as her Oprah appearance -- available on YouTube -- or, rather, not as important as her theme song during her Oprah appearance.
It was "Brick House" by The Commodores. Could there be a funnier song to play for someone who's supposedly lost weight? Isn't that a bit like playing Queen's 'Champions' in a losing locker room?

Ah, Perverts
I was walking down by the aquarium just now. It's overcast here, and raining. But dogs still need to crap when it's raining, and I saw a girl with two puppies on leashes circling a tree looking to drop a doogan.
She looked like a normal college student. Red baseball hat, grey long sleeve T, jeans. I barely noticed her as I walked by. Then, this older guy in black t-shirt and ripped jeans with a slight bald spot and teeth that were slightly crooked and somehow looked too thick, crosses my path, turns to me, and says:
"She can put me on a leash if she wants, heheheh. I'll be her little pet, heheheh."
Then he put his cigarette back in his mouth, turned, and continued on in front of me.

Can I get 5!
Hey All!
Just wanted to say how excited I am to see most of you this weekend! I don't know when everyone is getting to town or what their plans are, but I wanted to make it known that we are having our 4th Annual Mexican themed party Friday night. Sooooo, when you guys get here make sure to come with a sombrero, ready to funnel and with a hunger for con queso!
We are having a keg here for Mexican night and them some of the boys from the 14s who now live on Penn are doing the gauntlet the next morning before the game. This consists of an ice luging-kegstanding-funneling course. Then who knows!
I don't know if any of you got tickets to the game, but just incase you don't want to sit in the hotel room, we can leave our house open for you guys to watch there and finish off whatever nachos and cheese we have leftover. Of course, these are all just suggestions, do whatever makes you the happiest and gets you the drunkest.
OK - well, I hope you guys are getting ready. Just so you know, Courtney Clark has been doing the terminator like crazy and I have a feeling that at least one of the Palmers might show up... but no promises.
Until Friday! Adios!
PS
Once I got past Sam's dumb name/picture, I would just like to say how awesome PublicHouseEntertainment turned out. I had know idea it was going to cover so many topics, and I don't know who the puppy chow chick is - but I think she's awesome.
