The Allentown Art Festival has come and gone.  Sunday was the perfect day for walking around the event, but you better have had a good chunk of change on you if you wanted to take home something other than a fried dough.  I missed the festival this year, but one thing I remembered about it was that the art was waaaay overpriced.  I mean you have to sell off....

As I was driving "The Mothership" (my minivan) around at the mall today I came across something that I just had to share with you.  I've seen some pretty jaw dropping parking before but this one was pretty amazing.  How many door dings do you think came from this park job?

We had a chance last Dyngus Day to interview somoe of the guys from the band Those Idiots Looks like they have been busy in the 'off season" putting together a theme song for today's Dyngus Day parties here in Buffalo.

At least here in Western New York the mammoth storm we'd been hearing about kinda fizzled.  Depending on what source you were depending on the forecast said we could get anywhere from 8 to 16 inches of snow - maybe more.  And with high winds it could create some very dangerous conditions.

It was on this day back in 1977 that a wall of black clouds descended on Western New York bringing bitter cold, heavy snow and winds as high as 75 mph in what would come to be known as The Blizzard of '77. The storm raged for just over 25 hours resulting in 29 deaths.

From the “I’ll believe it when I see it” file – I saw an item on the WGRZ-TV 2 website that says progress is being made on synchronizing Buffalo’s traffic signals.  As I was reading I kept wondering when I’m going to get to the punchline.  Anybody that’s ever tried to get around the city down the major streets knows it’s not unusual to have to stop at every light.  I’ve always said traffic lights
