Oh, SmAlbany!

Daily posts and occasional longer essays about politics, culture, and life in the Capital Region...updated M-F, midmorning


"I write this not as a booster of Albany, which I am, nor an apologist for the city, which I sometimes am, but rather as a person whose imagination has become fused with a single place, and in that place finds all the elements that a man ever needs..." -W. Kennedy, from O Albany!

Scooters...

More WNYT non-news: Following up on their Wednesday expose about people driving to Vermont to save money on gas, WNYT spent some time researching the skyrocketing scooter sales in the capital district. You can't make this stuff up. If gas prices continue to rise, we're almost certainly headed for either a "I sold my car and bought a sweet bicycle" piece or a "state workers long for mag-lev public transit" report.
