    109-93 guess who! And what's that sound? Cavs fans falling off the bandwagon!

    Unfortunately the Browns are not owned by someone who helped fund Issue 3 in 2009, which legalizes gambling in Ohio. And the NBA didn't go after him like they did Donald Sterling. >:(

    Well, the self-titled former King is eligible for free agency next year and has a house in southern California! He has not one, but two, teams to choose from out there!

    He went to the Thunder! I guess he's not going to that soon-to-be dumpster fire which Irving got traded from for spare parts!

    Have they signed LeBron yet, or is he waiting for Tristan? You might want to give up.

    Let. It. Go.

    Well, LeBron got his wish of the Heat drafting Napier, so I guess he's staying in Miami! Give it up, all you who think he will return!

    Uh, doesn't the Stepien Rule state that you can't have the #1 pick in back to back years? I guess by default Milwaukee gets the #1 pick this year!

    I saw in the third photo that it was the first LaGrange County seat! I've been there, having taken IN 120 westward from the Michigan border to IN 9 southward (wanted to avoid South Bend for a Notre Dame home game; it was an October day). I had lunch at some restaurant on the square whose name I forget.

    Hey, I've actually been to Leipsic myself! (I was taking a trip to get highway end photos, as well as check out a purported Texaco station in Grover Hill (OH 114 at OH 637 in Paulding County) for OhioGasPrices.com (a GasBuddy site). Not until after I saw the town (which I was familiar with long before I visited, given the fact I enjoy road maps!) did I realize its resemblance to the German name "Leipzig"!
  13. Wow, Zachariah, that's brave of you! Did you know that there were no criminals lurking in that abandoned building?
  14. I've always found it interesting that the "control cities" on I-90/the "Toll Road" are Chicago and Ohio in the second and fourth pictures. Why not South Bend? (Speaking of South Bend, the "control cities" are the same there as we see in Gary IIRC.)
  15. Having been up there, here are my observations of the two: 1. There is one gas station in Union City, Ohio (Sunoco), and one in Union City, Indiana (Shell). 2. Union City, Ohio, seems to have the only branch of Old National Bank in Ohio, as well as Pizza King. 3. I remember getting a photo of that mast with IN 28, IN 32, and OH 47 markers, just because more than one state was represented on it. 4. I remember seeing a story on the news way back (like 20 years ago) about a restaurant on the border with two clocks, one showing Eastern time and the other showing Central time. This was when Indiana was on Central time. 5. The post office is on the Indiana side, and the ZIP code for the Ohio version is 45390, and Indiana 47390. (I am unaware of a post office on the Ohio side.) Very interesting!
  16. KJP, where is this Highland Park of which you speak?

    Minnesota 129, Cavs 95!

    I wonder if the Alt OH 49 roads north and east of the city are open yet. Last time I went by there they were closed for construction. (I was wanting to get some photos, too.) Oh, and I really enjoy Picnic's Pizza right by Sutton's IGA on the north side! (There used to be a Pizza 'n Cream restaurant across Main Street from the big city hall building but it closed.) Arcanum ROCKS!!!
  20. HA HA! http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/news?slug=ap-notredame-arrests Take that, Brian Kelly! That'll teach you not to up and leave UC in the midst of a possible undefeated season!!!

  22. Great pictures! I've been through there a couple of times myself. I had a cousin go to college at IU in the 1980s, including their championship year of 1987. One thing I've noticed is that Bloomington does not have a Walgreen's pharmacy according to their website; the pharmacy locator lists Bedford as the closest location. Did the city keep it out? I seem to remember reading elsewhere on this page that it kept Wal*Mart out for the longest time. (According to my 2011 Rand McNally atlas there is a Wal*Mart and a Sam's Club on Highway 45.)
  23. never mind
  24. I noticed their stat about Canada getting slightly less than a quart of milk, and that is equal to 1/4 gallon, making a gallon of milk in the Great White North more than $4. The most I've seen at Kroger is $2.99 for a gallon. So milk is more expensive up there.
