So dudes, I am maybe possibly with this if it is near some sort of airport, though the price and timing will of course affect my choices and such. Don't get hopes up too high, but yeah.

OK, and yeah, I actually like Ohio. The thing about Ohio is that it is so normal as to actually be insidious. LIke you think Ohio is so middle of the road whatever, but there is a strange undercurrent to shit. I mean, hell, the Cleveland and Akron area are such a brewing pot of bizarreness as to be astonishing.

So, you see, we are meant to be like the no-zone of America. The middle ground, the DMZ of America.

I really like it here, sorta.

This guy is a good place to start. If you go visit his store, you can get free bread. Like a whole loaf. No shit.

The world's largest and probably only gathering of Devo fans takes place here every year. Fuck, I mean, we birthed Devo on an unsuspecting earth.

The head of the Church of the Subgenius now calls Cleveland home.

Harvey Pekar is kinda normal here. Tobey from American Splendor actually used to work in a coffee place I frequented. He announced your change way too loudly.

Dick Goddard. That motherfucker is an alien, I tell you.

These are all really perfunctory examples of the whole thing that is Cleveland. I mean, I know every town has its weirdnesses, it is just that Cleveland has that special weirdness. I think it comes out of being a dead end town in denial that has had a lot of close brushes with maybe being something but always blew it.

Youngstown is so depressing that it has a really bummer Springsteen song about it.

Dayton does have some interesting stuff. GBV and the Deal sisters being from there is pretyt indicative of the odd music stuff that comes out of that area.

Global warming is a damn lie.


Actually this is somewhat fuel to the fire of global warming, as most scientists theorize that gloabl warming will result in not just more warmth, but also in more extremes in weather, so having massive cold snaps actually does more to asupport the concept of gloabl warming than destroy it. The "warming" refers to the average temperature on the globe raising significantly, but in certain areas, that translates to things like what we are having right now.

Sorry, I used to know a bunch of conservatives who picked on al gore for giving a speech on global warming in NY on the coldest day that city had had in 100 years, not realizing how dumb it sounded.

Aside from that, we had that freakishly warm december, so, ummm, yeah.

As for the music thing, I lived a couple of floors up in my dorm at UD from Robert Pollard's son. I didn't even know he had a kid till I went there.

Just saying 'sup midwest in a midwest thread.

Am I the only one left who hails from Indiana? Kansas may be a bit far for March 2nd, as I'm moving to a new house that weekend.

Julie (my wife, for the new guys) and I were sad we couldn't attend the New Year's shindig in Louisville. Should another opportunity arise, we'll try to make it.


dude, see all relevant thread about KE3.
