Hi from sunny Buffalo! Although I was born in Boston, I have lived most of my life here in the Buffalo area. I must like it then, huh? The winters are great here. Since I bought a snow blower a couple of years ago I've barely had a chance to use it. You know guys have a special relationship with their "toys". If only I could have the same luck with my lawn mower. Went to Amherst Central High School, home of the Tigers not to be confused with the Bengals. They're from Buff State. I didn't go there but I managed to graduate from U. B. Communications is a tad easier than med school. Its always a pleasure to share some life experience with you on The New 96.1 JOY FM. Peace out.

S.  Millions of folks from New York to Los Angeles got together last night to ring in 2012.  An estimated one million people  gathered in Times Square in The Big Apple to watch the famous lighted ball drop at the stroke of midnight.  New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Lady Gaga hit the switch sending the ball into 2012.  They proceeded to briefly dance with each other.
