BOB MAYO GETS IT RIGHT, AS USUAL

COMMENTARY - It's for good reason that newsman and native Pittsburgher Bob Mayo is a big-deal in Western Pennsylvania. Here's another example where Mr. Mayo gets it right. The Onion, according to Mr. Mayo, is the Madison Wisconsin equivalent of The Carbolic Smoke Ball. Correct! Even The New York Times got this backwards when it called us Pittsburgh's equivalent of The Onion. Mr. Mayo has a new blog we'll be reading called The Busman's Holiday, an informal term for a vacation during which one engages in an activity that is similar to one's usual work.
