Oh please ! Tell us something we don't know. People have been bailing out of WNY for 20 or 30 years. This region is a dump. A rusting monolith. I moved back here upon retirement simply because of low home prices, and no traffic problem. You know why there is no traffic, and low home prices .... because there are no jobs. Intelligent people go to where the hi-tech jobs are. Blue collar workers stay where the manufacturing is. Well guess what we no longer have a maufacturing base. And hi-tech jobs in Buffalo are few ... if any.
Buffalo is a dead, rust belt
barren wasteland. U-Haul can't even keep any trucks here .... simply because everyone rents them to get outa here. And no-one is renting them to move here.
You could make a fortune in Buffalo simply selling plywood .... to board up all the vacant businesses and abandoned homes. Buffalo is a national joke. It always has been ... and always will be. I am only here because it's a cheap place to live. Cheap homes, low traffic volume ... and a good V.A. hospital. That's it.

are you the same Thom who used to work out at the Y? I have never seen a Thomas shorten his name to Thom vs Tom, except one who I knew at the gym.

No ... not me ! I shortenned my name to THOM after I saw the first " Thom McCann " shoe store sign.
Hey ! Think about it ... if someone attempted to break into your home at midnight ... or someone attempted to assault you in a parking ramp ... Would you rather have a hand gun with you ... or not ?
I am just sayin'... Get one now ... while you still can. Hand gun ownership could be outlawed.
But once you have one ... they can't take it away from you. If some guys crawling in your window some night ... you'll wish you had one ... I am just sayin'.....

No ! I shortened my name after i saw a " Thom McCann " shoe store sign ... Loooong ago ! Hey! Get a permit, get a gun. If the time ever comes where you need one .... and you don't have one ....
You'll wish you had exercised your constitutional right to keep and bare arms. I am just sayin'....
