BRO Quick Post: Pop over to CPO tonight (Saturday)

Just a quick invite to pop over to the CPO Club at foot of Porter (next to Buffalo Yacht Club at the foot of Porter) right now-- tonight. You couldn't be more welcomed than to just stop by...free parking too.
Mary Dolce (former owner Dolci's Bakery) asked BRO to put the word out that the party is a rather spontaneous outcome of today's ceremonies. She's led a great team to put on a weekend celebration for our Veterans. Ceremonies have been going on last night and today-- but there's loads of food (free) on the table-- cheap drinks-- and great neighbors. Come have a cider or a beer with General Sabo and friends.
TV's 2,4, and 7 were there, as well as the News and BRO. We'll do a wrap report tomorrow-- but now-- come on over an join in the fun!

As we mentioned in our previous post, we’re in the process of changing the Buffalo Rising site. We’re almost there as we expect to launch the new site on Friday, December 19th.
In the meantime, posting will be light as we log new stories in the new publishing system which will only be viewable when we launch on Friday.
As always, we appreciate our users’ patience as we make this transition but we promise it will be well worth it. With faster load times, a comment view …
Caroline Kennedy was in town for a visit with our mayor yesterday. A possible choice to succeed US Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, Kennedy's name has been mentioned along with that of Attorney General Andrew Cuomo (son of former New York Governor Mario Cuomo) and our own Byron Brown, among others.
Certainly, Kennedy has "been around politics" all of her life, which is to say she was born into a family of politicos and lived in the White House--neither of which would necessarily f …
Free light rail rides on downtown's above ground section could be derailed thanks to the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority's budget mess. That is the news coming out of a Buffalo Place meeting this morning. Facing a budget shortfall and reduced State operating assistance, the NFTA is scrambling for new revenue sources and is contemplating charging for rides along the lengthy downtown pedestrian mall.

It's Dolci, not Dolci's, Bakery. Once again the odd Buffalo habit of affixing the possessive S to every business name asserts itself.

Yes. Read comments by Frankster's. Best on the Buffalo Rising's web site, and without any odd habits.

Thanks, Atwater. We're available 24/7 to serve your opinion needs. Odd habits can be booked in advance at a Frankster's near you.

For "specialists" such as myself, even the odd habits at Frankster's are no longer enough. That's why I and others like me go to Zimmerman's.

I know this might sound really dumb (especially because it's over already...) but what's the CPO club?

Oh, and I think her name is Mary Gross, not Mary Dolce, which just means "sweet" in Italian.

Frankster, my friend, you are indeed half-sorta right on this one. Mary Dolce was once married to MIckey Gross (and still remain great friends) but she goes by Dolce, after her grandmother. You'll see that byline-- Mary Dolce-- as the author of her forthcoming novel about sex, love and baking sweets.
