Poor God.  His worshipers can never take a hint.

Orange barrel season hasn't been too bad this year. Malfunction Junction (I-75 and I-70 interchange) is a total clusterfuck. I think it was less dangerous before they fucked with everything.

The hell it has.  I'd like a word with the fucker who is in charge of construction on the I-471 to I-275 interchange*.  Not only did they decide to start the week before July 4th, but there's no end in sight and I can't even tell what the hell they're "improving".  Under more normal conditions it takes just about 20 minutes to get from work to my kid's pre-school, but it's been taking an hour or more with the construction.


*this is technically in Northern KY, but I've petitioned Gov. Kasich to annex that corridor so I don't have to drive through Kentucky on my work commute.

There is nothing necessarily wrong with unfinished public works projects, as long as people are still working on them.  That doesn't seem to be the case with the Cincinnati subway, though.  :(

Ok I did a little bit of work on this to help you out.

Take pics please :)

I will, but have no idea how to post them, so don't expect to see much.  :P

Tim--thanks for the tip. You must be back from vacation? I haven't noticed many news articles posted lately.

I was going to go to Goettafest the other weekend when I was up at those outlets in Mason, but ran out of time so I just went to the Hofbrauhaus instead.

I'll keep the chili but will assign both of my goetta shares to Cal.
