I'm moving to Buffalo.

buffalo is flatter and much windier/colder IMO than the soutern tier.

but, it's not like one is the north pole and the other South Beach. Both are miserable, overcast, depressing places to call home during the 6 months of winter.

Yeah, the lake probably helps to create a lot of wind as well as snow. And wind is what makes the coldness bad IMO.

Congrats on the job

I went to school there, compared to Syracuse it's a lot colder but we definitely get more snow in CNY.

[Ellsworth]

Wind is the biggest thing I remember from college. Freezing my ass off and actually having to LEAN into the effing wind if you were walking 'east to west' on our campus. I had a blast there but anybody who goes to school in western NY is either fucked in the head or didn't get accepted anywhere else.

I worked for seven years in lower Manhattan. I know from freezing wind.

It's like that where I work on the East River too. The wind just whips in off the river and at certain spots where buildings create wind tunnels it's ridiculous.

I call one stretch of York Ave. "umbrella death alley". It's funny after a nor'easter or even just a smaller storm to see all of the destroyed umbrellas in the trash baskets at the corners.

Never really spent much time in Buffalo outdoors so I don't have a point of reference to compare.

Doesn't one shuffle off there?

Anyway ... good luck with both the job and the wind.

[BigSlizz]

And congrats, btw.

I lived in chicago a few years

Winters blew (literally and figuratively). I imagine it is similar to buffalo

Wind makes the cold hurt

Without it, frigid temperatures are actually pleasant.

And snow is fun. As long as you don't kill yourself getting it out of your way.

Gratz on the new job

[Drama Queen]

Congratulations on the new job!

Burrrrrrrr! Did you break the news to your balls yet? Burrrrrrr!

[EagleFanInMD]

Congrats! Perhaps for side work, you can open up a spedie joint: good luck with the new job.

[Dim Bulb]

remind me what kind of law you practice?

Enough of trying to be a country lawyer. Just signed the offer with a large upstate NY firm and am sitting in my new office looking out the window at Canada and its wonderful Cuban cigars waiting for me. As far as you can be from KG's beloved Rotten Crapple and still be in New York State.

I promise I won't be the Slizz of Buffalo.

Remember it being corporate? Deals? Financing? Send me an email if you'd rather. I think I'm on the secret fairy ass portal list.

Corporate, mostly finance. My first several years I did chapter 11 work and still do some advising when we don't want to get the "bankruptcy lawyers" involved.
