Well the actual laws that ban it were put in place by the British. :contract:

I also thank you for the reminder, so I can avoid the city this weekend.   :)

The drive to Columbus is usually enough to keep me away.  Since there's absolutely nothing in between Columbus & Cincy (save for a crappy outlet mall), the drive feels like way more the 2 hours it takes.

All of the laws were put in place by the British.  Barbarians don't have laws.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Edit: Oh, sorry. Yeah for once this was not a Martinus thread. I just assumed it was.  :lol:
Garbon, Martinus, what's the difference?

Garbon = Good homo

Martinus = Dirty fag

Hey! I live in that nothing!

And if you are talking about the Jefferson outlet mall, yes, it is crappy.

Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".

Who cares much about the UN? Though Google says that today marks the start of gay pride in Columbus. :unsure:

The Columbus gays (hey, that sounds like a baseball team) have not had any pride until today?  :(

Gay or straight, if you live in Ohio there's not much of anything for you to be proud of.

One day, and I'll live to see it, people like Martinus will be burned at the stake, or thrown off a roof, or something that fits his crimes.

Feet amputation?

Also, Garbon has the superior qualities of not being a lawyer or a Euro.   ;)

The jury is still out on whether Marty is either of those.

I thought you lived west of that nothing  :hmm:

IIRC, it used to be decent.  We always used to stop by when we'd visit before we moved here.  But the last couple of times I was there I saw too many prices above what I could easily find retail.
