Not nearly as clever as I think I am. My opinions are my own.

I've been back in Buffalo about nine months. I'm going to spell "Tonawanda" correctly on the first try any day now, I can feel it.

I’m covering the election in West Seneca for @thesuns_wny.
Democratic town council candidate David Smaczniak is at Vigilant Fire Department.
“It’s been pretty encouraging with the steady stream of people coming in and out,” he said. “It’s nice to see.”

Voter Barrry Johnson summed up his election priorities in one word: “Democratic.” He said the county sheriff’s race is the most important of the year.
“For so long we’ve had (Tim) Howard, who has been completely ridiculous,” he said. He voted for Democratic candidate Kim Beaty.

Voter Phyllis Norris said she voted Democrat down the board, but that she’s tired of nasty campaign rhetoric from all sides.
“This has all kind of become distasteful, with what’s going on,” she said.

The police department I cover publishes a weekly police blotter, and I ask for more info by email. As a journalist, it is my job to ask hard-hitting questions. Like this one. (Original blotter item in normal text, my questions in bold.)

A man unironically referred to me as a "whippersnapper" because he didn't like a story I wrote, which is a new career highlight.

if I were Joe Biden i would toss in one weird thing with the same earnest, calm demeanor ''and let's put a furby in every household! we can do it! this is america! we've talked about it long enough! it's a simple premise!' and then just keep going and never allude to it again

I wonder if Rhode Islanders would be annoyed by D.C. statehood. Living in the smallest state was kind of their thing.
Flagmakers, on the other hand, would be thrilled.

This morning I checked Bing to see if Google was down, so it's gonna be one of those days.

I heard an old man talking to himself at the grocery store.
“What’s this?” he asked, eyeing a rack of ribs.
Then, with frustration and despair: “I don’t have time to make this! Time!”
Then he wandered off, and it’s like, look buddy, I didn’t ask for an existential crisis today.
