We have a list of firsts we almost all remember and hold dear (at least, I do!). First kiss (Erik Mattoon), first job (Quality Markets), first vinyl (Queen, The Game), first cassette (Bruce Springsteen, Born in the USA AND Cyndi Lauper, She's So Unusual...

I'm not sure why anyone would volunteer for punishment, but these pain, screams, and agony is very, very real. High school students at Barberton High in Ohio were taking a career tech education course in criminal science, and volunteered to be pepper sprayed...

After watching this video, you'll see why Carlo has become a "staff favorite" at the Buffalo Animal Shelter.  He literally...SMILES! :)  He's a happy-go-lucky goof ball with a silky smooth coat and kisses for days! Meet your next best friend here! ...

Pierogi, in my humble opinion, should never be saved for special occasions like Dyngus Day.  It's a year-round love affair, and no one knows them better than Buffalo!  So it's only appropriate that we hold the first ever Pierogi Fest! Ten WN...

Over 150 riders will ride over 100 miles for the Buffalo chapter of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. The 2017 Ride for Missing Children is Friday, May 19, starting at New Era Field.  But it's not just a ride -- it's an experience! First...

Water service to the Village of Brocton was shut off early this morning to repair a major leak, so the Chautauqua County Department of Health says once service is restored, Village customers should boil drinking and cooking water until further notice...

We've discussed this before, many times!  Fidget spinners are all the rage, especially for kids around age 12 to 17 (unscientific data there...but it just seems to be who's, well, fidgeting with them). They were initially created for (and marketed to) those who have a tenancy to fidget, and even to help those with PTSD, anxiety issues, and other disorders like ADHD (studies are now suggesting they

I made a big tray of these for our friend Piper's last day at Townsquare Media (our Chief Engineer's guide dog...see the farewell video here) before he retires.  They were quite well-received not only by him, but also by my own DJ The Wonder Dog. (An...

Bill Stachowiak is the Chief Engineer here at Mix 96, and for all four of the stations at Townsquare Media, Buffalo.  In my almost-20-years in radio, I've not worked with a more skilled engineer, and most people don't know how day-to-day operations here depend on the engineering staff. ...

Typical mom sayings, aka "mom-isms" seem to have no end. How many on this list have YOU used (or been told) a million times?  They're just kind of in Mom DNA. A comedian named Anita Renfroe does a full song, to the tune of the William Tell Overture, using almost all of them.  St...

Ever since an immigration raid closed four Mexican restaurants in Buffalo back in October, many Buffalonians have waiting with baited breath for Don Tequila to re-open. We're going to have to wait a little bit longer. Initially, their grand re-opening was slated for tomorrow (May 11) at 11am...

Moms are notorious for dolling out advice (solicited or not), and one of them may have been to watch your money and spend responsibly.  Unless of course it's on a gift for her, in which case, feel free to splurge. ;) Kidding, of course. But...
