Free Buffalo was downtown this evening to celebrate the 2nd anniversary of the Bass Pro project announcement. The wisdom of our great leaders, including Masiello and Higgins, was marked by a champagne toast to progress.
The media turned out in full force to cover this historic event. Fittingly, there was a toast to the interest being paid by taxpayers for the $14 million loan taken out by the County to support this icon of urban renaissance.
The economic spin off from this great project was exemplified by a dozen or so people heading to the Pearl Street Grill to continue celebrating Buffalo’s reurbanization.
Bass Pro was appropriately decorated with stark reminders of the October Surprise storm. They sure know how to welcome people!

In fact, women talk almost three times as much as men, with the average woman chalking up 20,000 words in a day - 13,000 more than the average man.
And, if that wasn’t enough, the simple act of talking triggers a flood of brain chemicals which give women a rush similar to that felt by heroin addicts when they get a high.
Dr Brizendine says the brain’s “sex processor” - the areas responsible for sexual thoughts - is twice as big as in men than in women, perhaps explaining why men are stereotyped as having sex on the mind.

This is also why education is so important to the cause of liberty. Here we are not merely talking about a professor with a chalkboard lecturing to a captive audience. We are talking about a society-wide transformation of public opinion. We need to make resources available. We need to use every means at our disposal to teach economics, raise public consciousness, instill an ethic of liberty, and draw constant attention to the reality that statism in all its forms is a destructive racket.
This is the path that will finally overthrow the regimentation of modern political life and cause it to be replaced by freedom and peace. That is why November 2006 should give us hope. In the final analysis, it is not self-interest but the ideas people hold about themselves and their government that will determine our political future. Even though it can be a struggle to find our way there, revolutions can happen. In the end, it is the idealists, and not the cynical campaign consultants, who shape our world.
