Yeah..that isn't even a place for human habitation! My dad was born and ->

raised in the slums of Buffalo. He left to join the Marine Corps and never looked back (he was orphaned by then). He lived to be 95, and hated even the hint of cold weather his whole life. He would get grumpy when he saw even snow flurries.. I AM my father's son!
