Newsletter. We are STILL The Unofficial and irreverent voice

THE WALL: INTERVIEWS WITH LIVE
HUMANS
This week
on The Wall, Joe Vecc thinks "out of the box", and
challenges the way we look at men's underwear. Read our interview
with Joe Vecc, inventor of "Borodino
Freedomsofts", the revolutionary new underwear for men,
designed and sewn right here in Borodino.
SKANEATELES LAKE - FROM THE
AIR
Demonstrating
once again the lengths to which we will go at The Bullett to please our
readers, we rented a plane to fly to Rochester, and took pictures on the
return trip flying over some of the Finger Lakes. The sunny day became
cloud-covered by 4 pm, but you can still see Seneca, Cayuga, Owasco,
Skaneateles, and Otisco Lakes at 5500 feet in this zipped PowerPoint
presentation, called "Wings Over Skaneateles." Click
on the icon to download and run from your computer (if PowerPoint is
installed) and enjoy. Musical selection: Theme from Top Gun
Our pilot was Chad M. King. Click to enlarge>

Small Business Directory for 2002. These are available at the Town Hall,
and on the Bullett.
