One of the advantages of living in Buffalo is that we are in sthe reception area for Toronto’s 102.1 radio station. It is/was the Lovely Lettuce’s favie station. And I think it is pretty good in an psuedo-alternative sort of way.
Any old way, I digress. A few days ago, [...]

Motor City Withdrawal
Posted in & Everything, Buffalo, Detroit, RGIS, vegetarian, tagged Buffalo, Detroit, RGIS on May 23, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Well, we got back to Buffalo Tuesday night. The Lovely Lettuce and I really enjoyed our 6 day ‘oliday in the Motor City. Although, if one wants to be technical, our ‘oliday was Southfield, MI since that is where we slept. Perhaps our ‘oliday will inspire me to post about [...]
Tomatoes From the Garden
Posted in & Everything, Buffalo, life, tagged tomatoes on December 9, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I am amazed that we still have a few tomatoes from our garden in our kitchen.. I picked several pounds of unripe tomatoes before the first deep frost in mid-November and over 80% actually ripened to an edible state.
2008 was a great year for tomato growing in the garden.

Over the weekend, I had the pleasure to run a small inventory at the local Nichiren Buddhist Community Center bookstore in Buffalo. It was the most pleasant inventory I’ve ever experienced. The co-managers and others assisting with the inventory were perhaps the most well-adjusted (dare I say happy??) people I’ve [...]
Sam Hoyt won’t get my vote

Here in Buffalo’s 144th Assembly District, Sam Hoyt is running against Brabra Kavanaugh in a bitterly fought primary battle. Neither side seems to mind campaign material by third parties full of innuendo and half-truths directed against the other. But, oh, when it is directed against them, it is another matter [...]
Cameras and Increased Patrols

Oh, Lordy, it seems that Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown and Rep. Brian Higgins don’t want visitors to the Buffalo waterfront to be victims of smash and grab crimes. From the Buffalo News:
“We are aware that several cars have been broken into in the area as well as at Erie Basin Marina,” said [...]
Buffalo Waterfront Crime Update

I decided to contact the Buffalo News about the Buffalo Waterfront Crime Wave. Even if they did nothing, I would feel better that I tried to do something to make my fellow Buffaloians aware of the risk of leaving valuables visable at the new greenway trail.
Yesterday, I was pleasantly surprised to see [...]
Welcome to the Buffalo Waterfront

The City of Buffalo opened a new greenway on the waterfront just below Downtown on Thursday. By this morning, the criminals have already found it to be a great place to do crimes.
This morning the lovely Lettuce and I decided to go for a walk on Buffalo’s newest trail. As I was pulling [...]
