I already hate driving in Buffalo as it is and I'm not in the mood to deal with a possibility extra 1 million people here as Mayor Brown is predicting.

I did purchase ISO certified eclipse glasses for myself and few others. Depending on the weather, I'm most likely going to clean the garage that day. It sounds more pleasant than dealing with Buffalo traffic.
