Blizzard-like conditions
ByDerek
The radio is talking about blizzard-like conditions in some areas, with 60-70 MPH wind gusts. All the area schools are closed. Tractor trailers are blown over. You must be thinking that with such outrageous conditions that the Skyway is surely closed. You would be wrong.
Eliot Sptizer protects us from ourselves

I shuddered when I read this article, just as North Buffalo Journal and Review did. As a result, he would propose new efforts that would protect children from excessive sex and violence in the media; from tobacco company marketing; from access to illegal guns, and from a junk food industry he said has little regard…
Know when to walk away

Some times, those DIY homeowner projects just don’t work out the way you plan. Who am I kidding, they NEVER work out the way you plan! In this particular case, though, even with the best intentions and days of planning and work, the project went completely belly up. The idea was simple. My in-laws were…

It’s perfectly fine for South Park to mock other religions because Scientologist doctrine says that other religions are the result of misleading data implanted into the minds of the thetans after their 36-day, three-D, super colossal motion picture…
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!
