  1. Another rendering, another Camaro in the parking lot
  2. ^Articles like this never mention the exploded popularity of thrift stores. In Pier 1's case it was probably the main thing taking them down for a long time. But no, the article just goes straight to Amazon and Wayfair.
  3. Things like that won't turn up on Snopes, now will they?
  4. ^NKY (Kenton, Boone and Campbell County) traffic engineering over the past 50 years has for the most part been way off the mark and wacky. So many unnecessary/overbuilt projects and closures. And all those one-ways put them out of business. They just can't figure it out. A lot of these changes have been documented by this website: http://www.bunkerblast.info/roadpics/
  5. For as much of the economy has been sucked into Seattle, a ton of it besides Amazon and Microsoft is a barrage of smaller/private app makers (back of house, so making apps for companies you've heard of), software engineering contractors and video game design studios. It really is Seattle+San Francisco/Silicon Valley.
  6. Because Musk is the only businessperson techies pay attention to that is not in tech.
  7. If you add Stryker to the front you can pronounce it like Stacy!
  8. Well since there aren't any strip joints in Cincinnati it has to be made up with other joints.
  9. I didn't know about this. Might help the players in the Fall too.
  10. Hmm, I might have been talking about hot water rather than steam now that you mention it. Steam only comes out very seldom in what I'm talking about.
  11. Yeah with steam radiators everything in the house is warm, not just the air. The furniture, the floor, wood...
  12. At the same time there are no real BRT advocates, I think there are also few BRT opponents.
  13. Republicans don't compare numbers -- they just repeat them out loud by themselves.
  14. Somebody whose company was allowed to keep working whining about people in other industries having go on unemployment? NO WAY These people have no idea that everyone else thinks they're spoiled little bitches rather than tough guys.
  15. ^If you care about that stuff, go live in the 99.9% of houses that aren't like that then.
  16. Except an all new kitchen from one year later
  17. Let's get something with cardboard doors and styrofoam trim in there instead! ?
  18. Bills for paved bike/mixed use paths are gigantic as compared to unpaved.
  19. Newark's freeway system certainly is expansive for its population size. If you continue out on 16 on the Frazeysburg bypass you think you're driving from L.A. to Ventura or something.
  20. Don't glue a quarter to the bottom of the pool or she'll drown!
  21. GCrites replied to a post in a topic in Urbanbar
    Yeah but if you wanted to have something with a barbecue grill, you might as well assign someone working full-time for a month to get permission to use it.
  22. Compare Cincinnati or Cleveland Downtown lunch options with Columbus and its 30-minute lunch culture to see how different it looks when office workers can't leave/aren't there to eat lunch. 30-minute lunch has damaged Downtown Columbus severely.
  23. New signings will be delayed, yes. Not sure if it will be severe enough to be considered hit hard. Retail orders are certainly down. In apparel, a lot of things that sat in stores during Spring will go straight to Burlington Coat Factory and other outlets from now being out of season. That means those items may have to be warehoused for a time so short-term flex space might actually be in higher demand.
  24. You're talking long-term while he's talking short term.
