6/4/03 – Update

The lack of updates recently doesn't mean that Buhner.com is lacking in material. Quite the opposite, actually, as the reason behind the lack of updates is that there is too much stuff to write about. Right now, I've got two articles that I just need to put into HTML form and put onto the site, another article halfway done, a review that has been started, and two more things that I've started but put off to the side. So, just when you least expect it, Buhner.com is going to have more content than you can handle.

On a side note, my lack of finances has caused me to put my childhood up for sale. I've put a good number of my "good" original Transformers up from the mid 80s. When I mean "good", I mean Transformers that those of us who grew up during the 80s would actually recognise, not obscure pieces of crap that are "valuable" solely because of their rareness and the fact that their have a sticker placed backwards. Names like Megatron, Optimus Prime, Shockwave, Hot Rod, and Jetfire are what I'm talking about. Anyway, I'm selling them on eBay, and you can check out the auctions here.

UPDATE!: As I mentioned, the articles are here, they just need to put up. Two articles follow, with the first being the return to Buhner.com of Chris Buse. Buse writes The State Of Professional Sports, where Mr. Buse lets his feeling be known about the status of sports today, the views of the fans, and sports economics.

The second article is a very special one to me. A Martyr to Duty: Remembering Giuseppe �Joe� Petrosino, the Original �Untouchable� was written by Joe Avella, who recently contributed an article about Billy Mitchell for Buhner.com. Many people don't know about the legend of Joe Petrosino, who fought the Black Hand of the mafia in New York in the early 20th century. However, Petrosino's heroic actions have made him a hero of New York City police officers and in his native Italy. If you think you know "the mafia" or have an interest in things like "The Godfather", the true story of Joe Petrosino is one that needs to be known, and Joe Avella brings it to us in his article. After reading it, you'll see why movies have already been made about this man, with another one currently in the works. And the best part? He's related to my wife.

Anyway, read, and I'll get back to work.
