I didn’t get a chance to listen to Bauerle’s FUD today, but BuffaloPundit did. Tom Bauerle is badmouthing Buffalo Old Home Week and therefore badmouthing Buffalo and Western New York as a good place to live. Why? Because we suck and we’re an economic desert. The point, you mulleted prick, is that we’re accentuating the…
Another great article on Buffalo Rising, this time showing just how little of the core of downtown has actually been preserved since circa 1960. The fact is, one of the few bright spots in Buffalo’s economy has been the power of the city’s high quality historic architecture and a recent wave of restorations to stimulate…
I was wondering why last week out of the blue Dan Meyer, editor of The Sun decided out of the blue to comment on an old Skyway post I wrote. Then I opened up my copy of The Sun to find this editorial:
BuffaloGeek is erroneously claiming to have the cutest baby ever. As if!
Once upon a time, a couple friends of ours decided to buy a falling down 1800s winery in Hammondsport, NY. They began what turned into an 18 year project of converting it for use as a future B&B and they invited Amanda and I to stay there for a few days last week. Besides visiting…
Tired of yelling at the TV during Sabres games and nobody yells back? Hop on over to the open thread at BfloBlog.com for each game and chat nearly real-time with other Sabres fans, and occasionally some opposition fans as well! It’s almost like being there… almost.
Hi! I write you for different reasons. The first one to tell you I enjoyed your pics from Belgium. I went there last year and I think it’s an awesome place. The other reason is because we share the same lastname, this is: Punaro. I am mexican, and back there all the people that share this lastname are the descendents of the late Mr. José Asuncion Punaro (this is my grandfather from my mother’s side). The funny thing is that we don’t know the origen of the Punaro name. So, each time I have a chance, I seach to see if by any chance I find a clue. Some time ago I was told it is from northen Italy. Do you have an idea? Thank and hope you don’t bother for using this space that I imagine it’s reserved for your family and close friends.
The name does originate in Italy. Somewhere, I have some images of Ellis Island records of my ancestors coming over to the U.S. I’ll post them when I have a chance. I do not know where the Mexican branch would have started!
