As I sit here on a park bench, my "Price Chopper" shopping cart gleaming in the midday sun I sit typing on my laptop
computer. It is a sunny late spring afternoon in this some
time bustling metropolis population somewhere near 50,000 people. We have most things that the civilized citizen could want, 3 "Super Center Wal-Marts within 12 miles of each other, more pizza places then you could shake a stick at..in fact here in Utica you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a pizza place here. We also have an abundance of prisons here in our area, which has left it's own little thumb print upon this city. With prisons you have criminals and with criminals you have relatives who follow them to the area, because they haven't got the financial resources to visit on a regular basis because we are out in the middle of "Gods country". So Onieda County makes it easy for these dregs of society to recieve benefits..that will make it so these people don't have to go and find gainful enployment. As for me yes I am employed, but I have a job that allows me to roam the city and write about the comings, goings, happenings, and stories that makes Utica, NY unique. It is my goal with this blog to aquaint people with our little slice of heaven
and heartily invite people to visit. Well I can see it's time for me to load my laptop into my trusty chariot and move along, a Utica Police officer has been eying my mode of transportation and so it's time to go. This is UC boy signing off for now.
