Brandwashing
ByDerekDo you have strong feelings of loyalty towards certain brands? Generally, I don’t. For many products, I’m happy buying whatever is cheapest at the moment. That often consists of store brands, like Wegmans pasta sauces, or ice cream, or… cat food. We’re 2 for 2 in recall roulette this year. First, there was the peanut…

Merry Christmas!
ByDerekThis Christmas season is proving to be exceptionally challenging trying to get shopping done, cookies baked, the house prepped for Christmas, and everything else that needs to be done while managing Ariella’s eating/sleeping/pooping schedule. Amanda also came down with a sinus infection that’s had her mostly benched since Thursday. We wouldn’t trade it for anything,…

Can you sue a road?
ByDerekBuffaloPundit 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.”…

Smooth sailing over the Skyway
ByDerek100+ schools closed because of high winds. Surely the Skyway must have been closed, right? Nope. Sorry, folks. To be fair, it was closed for about an hour earlier in the week in one direction only because of a fender bender. That’s the first time this winter.

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!
