Now that the “big rocks” of finding a job, getting a house, and taking care of the major issues with that home, I’m getting back to biking more regularly. One of the first things that surprised me in Buffalo was the biking culture. It’s diverse (racing, trails, and commuters), pervasive, grassroots, and unpretentious (typical of [...]

Today I felt as if I was driving down a road, filled with citizen police officers who are driving in the far left lane, trying to keep me from speeding. At the end of my day, I’ve learned some things: that water damage unseen is usually of the flood plane type, but once seen is [...]

When in the course of T.V. viewing it becomes necessary for one customer to dissolve the cable wire which has connected him with Time Warner and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station which the Laws of Internet and 21st Century marketing entitle him, a decent respect to the [...]
The metaphor for BufWiki is a snowball pushed from a mountain. See I made a teeny tiny snowball at the top, pushed, and clasped my hands over my mouth as I watched what happened. Here are some stories from watching the chaos. In Toronto, they have a cool wiki about their city and the guy [...]
A friend of mine living in Georgia told me about this amazing book: Book of Short Stories | By Fifth Grade Pupils. What’s interesting to me is seeing Buffalo through the eyes of children living through the depression. Also, what school district would be so bold as to publish a book written by fifth graders [...]
So I felt it was time to stop talking about creating communities and create one. When I lived in Rochester (way back in June), I really appreciated RocWiki. It provided an insiders look at places that I hadn’t even know and gave historical context to what I did know about the place I’ve lived for [...]
As I sit here, not able to watch the Bills on yet another Sunday (why the fuck did I move to Buffalo!?), I wonder how much this helps the Sabers. I’m watching the Sabers right now, but I would have watched the Bills. Once Time Warner and WIVB Channel 4 figure their shit out, I [...]
