Remember that old song: "Pave paradise and put up a parking lot"? I miss the buffalo even though I never got to see them!

You would have loved them, especially when they had babies. Majestic and primitive animals. So sad that they're gone. But of course they never belonged to the residents and were only temporarily housed on very expensive commercial land.

A proposal:
Build a mega complex down off of Route 44, 466A or wherever. A big new performing arts complex, a state of the art fitness center and the minor league ballpark. Throw in a cancer center/hospital if necessary. There would be only one big parking lot, to be shared by all of the venues. Best of all, there will be no cost to the taxpayers since I wil pay for the entire development when I win the lottery. All I ask is that the complex be named The Dominick Sports, Health and Cultural Complex, which can be affectionately shortened to "The Dom".

And name the baseball team the Buffaloes and keep a herd in a few acres just outside the stadium.

Now that's a stroke of diplomatic genius that I appreciate!
