    Web polls are worthless, and not at all newsworthy. This is a poll of registered voters -- a scientific poll, conducted by a polling agency.
  2. The bird may supply sufficient constrast to make the cage visible. Perhaps we could use the sculpture contest from the casino money to get a nice big bird... :laugh:

    Also 14/15, missing the last one.
  4. ^ Thanks, I was wondering too! That sounds like a pretty owesome spot for the maintenance facility. Maybe they'll make it permanent.

    ^ Some might consider that creepy.
  6. ^ That's quite a commute!

    ^ I'm glad you can now describe the incident as funny, rather than tragic.
  8. I wish Strickland could successfully engage the freight companies who use these lines. If they would be willing to pony up some cash for annual 3C operations, they could get some stellar track improvements. And the major talking point opponents use (perpetual operations costs) would look even more absurd and insignificant. Are the freight companies really content to watch this thing die? There's probably a lot going on behind the scenes, but it seems like they would have a lot of power to help make this happen. Maybe they're waiting till the 11th hour, figuring they could negotiate with either Strickland or Kasich. With a little investment in the future, even more upgrades would likely fall into place down the road.

    Wisconsin is delivering quite the birthday present for an OSU alum.
  10. Ouch, this is ugly. Looks like Wisconsin is about to pull off the upset. 1st place must've been nice for the week it lasted.

    Happy birthday :)
  12. Cincinnati makes the "Road Rage Capitals of the U.S." list, while apparently Cleveland scored as the second-least road ragey. http://editorial.autos.msn.com/slideshow.aspx?cp-documentid=1164137&icid=autos_1604&GT1=22010#10 More Cincinnati residents surveyed by AutoVantage admitted to sending text messages or e-mails while driving than anywhere else in the country, except for Phoenix, which tied Cincinnati in this category. They also copped to hurling more expletives at fellow drivers than residents of any city other than Miami. Further marring Cincinnati's image is the fact that its neighbor to the northeast, Cleveland, made AutoVantage's list for the opposite reason: It has the second-least amount of road rage in the country.
  13. The invisible tiara makes me imagine what the building would look like if it continued to narrow with Art Deco-y rectangular angles until it came to a point of some kind. Perhaps (definitely?) better than with the tiara.
  14. Everyone hypes up Vine, but IMO Main is nicer. Maybe because it feels more neighborhoody since it's not a major thoroughfare. Is it narrower? That could be it.
  15. Waiting to hear some news on the construction...

    I haven't driven to work in years.
  17. They also already have decent rail infrastructure. We don't.
  18. What do you think his motivation is to say what they quote?

    Everyone talks about losing business to KY, but this will go under the radar. If a similar move were in reverse, it would be all over the Cincinnati.com's front page. Regionally, it is zero-sum. So not a big deal, overall. They aren't even moving out of the urban core. A small win for Cincinnati proper and Ohio.
  20. Don't feed the troll.
  21. ^ Glad I got there before the edit. Now I don't have to grace the propaganda with a click.
  22. ^ That's it...cover the tiara in ivy!!! lol. "Green roofs" are all the rage these days, after all.
  23. I can't wait to see what Smitherman and COAST agree the casino money should be spent on.

    I've heard they were talking about making people sign for things with dextromethorphan. Haven't heard of anyone actually doing it, though.
