HIT: To another successful Finger Lakes Antique Car Show and Skaneateles Antique and Classic Boat Show.

Boat lovers converged in the village of Skaneateles to talk boats this past weekend, while those who prefer motoring on four wheels gathered at Emerson Park on Sunday to talk about hot-rods, classics and unique antiques.

These kinds of summer shows are great, because they give locals something fun to do and also bring hundreds of tourists to the area.

HIT: To the longevity of the music of the Worlocks, a band founded in Port Byron in the early 1960s.

The group hasn't performed together in 40 years, but band members recently discovered that a record they made in 1965 is fetching $1,000 on the Internet and that their song “I Love You” has made it onto rock compilations released in Europe and Australia.

While the band hasn't seen any money from people who continue to profit from their music, it's nice to know that something a group of teenagers created so long ago will continue to live on as a part of rock 'n' roll history.

MISS: To a report that many states - New York included - are misusing money that was supposed to be used to upgrade emergency calling services.

Cell phone subscribers in most parts of the country pay a monthly fee for 911 improvements, but cash-strapped state governments are using the money in other ways. In New York, only about 19 cents of every $1.20 fee the state collects goes toward emergency services, with much of the rest going to cover general expenses.

HIT: To the summer Career Connections Camp at the Cayuga-Onondaga Board of Cooperative Education Services in Aurelius.

The four-day program offered 13 classes allowing seventh-, eighth- and ninth-graders to explore cooking, cosmetology, graphic design and other professions.

It was a good educational experience for everybody involved and a worthwhile way to spend a few summer days.
