One Hell Of A Ride
Like most people who work downtown, I park in one of the city’s fine parking ramps. And while the logistics of actually building a parking ramp often cross my mind, I came across another puzzling question while parking one day.
This Just In: We Live In Buffalo
Did anyone else realize that it snowed this week? Crazy, right?
I don’t mean to sound like a jerk, but I had to scratch my head and wonder what people were thinking during our first spring snowstorm of the season.
Top O’ The Morning To You
This week marked one of my favorite holidays of all time –St. Patrick’s Day!
While the beer tastes great (and green beer even better) and the car bombs flow like wine, it’s more than just the boozin’ that makes me happy. And it’s more than just getting to wear my favorite color all day or the fact that I’m Irish...
Is This Guy For Real?
At the Sabres game on Tuesday, I saw an interesting sight on the Jumbotron – owner Terry Pegula and his right-hand man Ted Black sitting with the fans. In the 300 level.

As an animal lover, I was so happy to hear this news. But, of course, I couldn’t help but think, are there still shelters euthanizing puppies and kittens? What happened to the No-Kill Movement?
Gaga Oooh La La
Last night, the one and only Lady Gaga graced us with her presence. My husband and I were fortunate enough to get tickets to the show forever ago when they first went on sale. It was a stressful procedure, but well worth the effort and price.
Steamy Dreams About Co-workers make for Awkward Mornings
We’ve all had them before. Risqué dreams about someone other than our significant other. Maybe it’s about Angelina Jolie or Brad Pitt. (Maybe together!) Or maybe it’s about our favorite pharmacist.
But what if it’s not?
Jobs I Would Want (First Edition)
For some reason, I’ve been watching the Travel Channel. A lot. And with this viewing comes raging jealousy – wouldn’t it be great to get paid to travel the world to eat a bunch of food?
