Wheels in the Grass
on Monday, March 19th, 2012
Seeing this 1970 Ford Torino four-door sedan at the far end of a Sanborn driveway sent me to the brochure archives when I got home. Didn’t see a lot of them even back when it was new, and they’re also as scarce (almost) as hen’s teeth in the literature of the era. Ford, and other [...]

YAK Car Pic of the Day
on Sunday, March 18th, 2012
You know, a while back when I passed this 1972 Ford Econoline Van camper conversion in the Town of Holland, the For Sale sign in the front window suggested that it would be great for Bills’ games. Comparing the Bills’ rather dismal record over the past decade (or more) to this rather dreary-looking camper, [...]

YAK Car Pic O’the Day
on Saturday, March 17th, 2012
A Happy and Blessed St. Patrick’s Day to everyone! And in the spirit of the day: Back in 2007 we took a trip to Ireland, where we stayed with some dear friends in County Limerick. On our last day there, I just happened to be outside the garden gate when the An Post (Irish Post Office) [...]

YAK Car Pic of the Day
on Friday, March 16th, 2012
I thought it might be interesting to see if anyone can identify the year, make, and model of the car in today’s pic. (I’ve Photoshopped out any nameplates in case you’re thinking of enlarging it!) Look for the answer over the weekend. — Jim Corbran, You Auto Know
The First Amendment Club: A Warning Shot
on Thursday, March 15th, 2012
This week, our friends at the First Amendment Club—a group of activists with a base in Black Rock whose political affinities are difficult to label—published something of a warning to local politicians in this week’s Riverside Review. The Club has published a column regularly in the Review and in the Buffalo Rocket. Here’s this week’s [...]

The Face of Evil in America
on Thursday, March 15th, 2012
There are no words to describe my rage at hearing this yesterday (interestingly enough, it was played & discussed on the Howard Stern Show). In this video, demonic professional panhandler Pat Robertson tells a woman that it’s better to create a rift in her family than to attend her sister’s marriage to another woman. A [...]
