Aside from my wife's cooking (of course, I needed to mention that!), my favorite meals come from locally owned diners. I have written a few articles in the past, mentioning some of our wonderful diners in the Southern Tier of New York and Northeast Pennsylvania. We certainly have many, and I try to visit as many as possible. Recently, I noticed that USA Today published a USA 10Best article listing the best roadside diners in America, as voted on by their editors and readers.

Recently, while approaching an intersection in the City of Binghamton, I observed a motorist ignore the stop sign, barreling through the intersection. Didn't even slow down. Maybe the sign was just a suggestion. Luckily, there was no other traffic at the intersection at the time, or a crash would probably have occurred. Well, this summer, that will be one of the things Binghamton City Police will be enforcing closely.
