JUNK MAIL: What's in a claim?

This edition of Junk Mail will take a look at some of the more outlandish assertions made in product pitches.....more>>

BOOK REVIEW: Former coach runs down Bills’ greatest hits
Aside from supporters of the Washington Generals, Buffalo Bills are as forlorn a lot as there is in the sports world.
DOUBLE TROUBLE: Pickiness not always the problem with tots
Having two little boys, I’ve heard a lot of the clichés that go with the gender.
“They love cars and trucks.” “Be prepared for a lot of tumbles and spills.” “They’ll roughhouse a lot.” “They’ll eat you out of house and home.”
Some of these are true of Jim. All of them are true of Sam. Especially the last one.
WHAT THEY'RE SAYING: NYC takes pity on Niagara
A New York City reporter recently showed sympathy toward Niagara County for the disparity in stimulus spending statewide.
LIFESTYLE: Would a plastic bag law be a waste?
Toronto is as liberal a city as there is. So if change doesn’t come easy there, that same change would face a Berlin Wall of opposition in Western New York, home of “whether it’s broken or not, don’t fix it.”
LIFESTYLE: Local animal wrangler leads wild life
Love takes on a whole new vibe when it involves fur and feathers. Just ask Jeff Musial, a Niagara County Community College graduate who has an entire collection of exotic animals and reptiles.
LIFESTYLE: 'Sesame Street' turns 40 years old
When the creators of “Sesame Street” first pitched the idea of a fuzzy elephant and digit-loving vampire teaching children, youth-oriented programming was sparse.
Local sleep expert gives slumber tips
Check your clocks. Did you “fall back” today?
LIFESTYLE: A lesson for the gasless
I am getting cranky about all these “gasless” people. Because if they aren’t really out of gas, then they are using human kindness as a way to rip people off. As such, they may be decreasing the already-fragile kindness level on the planet. I hate that.
BOOK REVIEW: Book recounts fascination with Greenlease kidnapping
More than a half-century after 6-year-old Bobby Greenlease was kidnapped and murdered, the story still is recalled in the Missouri cities and towns where the chilling crime left a lasting impact.
