This really doesn’t want to let up! I’m amazed at how bad the roads are around here, but that’s what happens when it’s too cold for salt to do any good. At least it looks like it’s going to hit 20 degrees tomorrow. Heat wave!
P.S. The skyway still hasn’t been closed this year. Just in case you haven’t been paying attention. 😉
It’s a beautiful snowy Sunday out here in the country. Here’s a simply modified photo, using only Picasa’s Focal B&W and soft focus filters. I think it makes a relatively dull photo (below) into something much more interesting.
I’ll be honest. I really don’t care about the sicko Congressman NAMBLA wannabe story that’s been getting all the attention the past few days. The Congress issue that really pissed me off this weekend was the passage of the Safe Port Act. Not that I have anything against our ports being safe, but because they…
Apparently, there is no shortage of Skyway reuse ideas out there today. BuffaloGeek sets us up for an interview on this next week: While it’s a much better concept than Tielman Park, again, what problems does it solve? It’s an incredibly inefficient way to get to the outer harbor by foot, and it doesn’t solve…
BuffaloPundit today takes on the issue of people suing to stop the Southtowns Connector. I laugh at the standard comments, such as “By the way I think it is quite quaint that you think the residents of Hamburg and Lackawanna should have any say in what Buffalo would like to do with its water front.”…
Actually, the skyway has closed at least once this year. IIRC, it was Saturday at about 10 pm when I was southbound on I-190 and saw the flashing crusier parked at the ramp.
Thanks, Scotty. I hadn’t heard that or seen it reported. However, since the anti-skyway argument centers around the fact that the skyway is “always closed” when people need to use it, causing great inconvenience to all, I think it’s safe to say that if it was closed at 10pm on a Saturday, there wasn’t much of an impact. I’m more concerned about the 7am-7pm time slot.
