Buffalo Yesteryears

O.J. Simpson and Cultural Terrorism - Couric Co. When I was back there in seminary school, not, at the University at Buffalo, that is now also the Center for Inquiry, a secular humanist organization, I recall Mr. Simpson was very popular. What was not popular was drive-by machine gunning of a socialist book store (many of Buffalo's residents are eastern European, Polish, Latvian, etc.) and the suspicious burning of an African-American art exhibit space back in the 1970s when he was playing for the Buffalo football team. This is when Jack Kemp the former Californian football quarterback, a Republican was elected to represent the constituents of the Greater Buffalo area and Erie County, NY. It seems fitting, a former fixture of the lounge of the Watergate in Washington, D.C., Mark Russell, broadcasts political satire from the new Amherst campus built on a former swamp, which was then to have the new subway to it, never done. Personally I sometimes wonder if pissed off abalone hunters went after OJ and his crew for supporting kelp beds and sea otters over their very sharp livelihood.
