  1. I really thought Bluegill had a chance considering their numbers
  2. A friend of mine has worked a lot of Warped Tours when they came to Cincinnati. The bands that were getting paid to be on the tour from working acted totally different than the ones that paid to be there.
  3. Some of those crops are far more labor-intensive than corn so our current workforce may not be able to supply the type of labor needed.
  4. We did not receive any direct cash subsides at all for our 400 acres last year. We did get zero-premium insurance and price protection that wasn't activated because crop prices were too high.
  5. I liked Remke just for variety. Going to Kroger that much felt like a slog. We have Giant Eagle up here but is just as boring/stressful and more expensive.

  7. A highly visible to the public manifestation of monopoly powers.

    Drove past the Waverly dispensary Friday and Saturday and there were like two cars in the parking lot so probably not there.
  9. You know back in the day there were taxicabs sitting there waiting for people to walk out then the driver (in a driving cap) says "Where to, Mac?" when they get in the car.
  10. Oh didn't know that. A giant photo of pink slime on the wall might indeed be bad for business.
  11. I remember that project stalled in like 2006.
  12. McDonald's wants to eliminate anything to do with the Ronald era and wants people to think about coffee only.
  13. Every other city has 60+ miles of suburbs. We only have 20. So people could live in a "rural" setting while still having a wide variety of employment options. It really was unusual.
  14. They wonder why they can't find things like school bus drivers and why small businesses close. Those are the exact type of people that get pulled off of those things for 10+ years of elder care.
  15. When I have taken my mother to 8 doctors' appointments this month and yet we don't allow younger people to see the doctor once or twice a year because it "would cripple the economy" I know those claims are BS.
  16. Most of the opposition in Ohio I feel was due to automakers who seem to have given up the fight against rail since it's really bad PR especially as viewed by young people.
  17. And individuals don't lose out on home value except maybe in areas where condo value was tied somewhat to close proximity of vaporizing office jobs.
  18. The I-670 smart lane was popular when it opened in 2019 and did work. But it shut down during COVID due to low volume and I can't tell if or when they brought it back without doing the drive at peak.
  19. Self-service checkouts led to an increase in crime.
  20. Some people don't register that there are things they can't control. It's very hard on them.
  21. Like the article says, we're back to a 1940s-50s economy heavy on the unskilled labor and ultra-rich with little white-collar work to speak of especially away from the Coasts. Good for selling Chevrolets -- if Chevrolet still had a full line instead of just trucks. Kias and Hyundais instead.
  22. Commission is 4 old ladies and some rich 52yo slick-looking guy I remember one landlord in Portsmouth would buy rental houses around the university just to tear them down so the students had to stay in his private dorms.
  23. Who in the University Aera gives a crap about "too much height" except those 5 people? The old zoning is literally minority rule.
  24. bUt CiTiEs ArE aLl PoOr PeOpLe
  25. Does seem more like a destination-type ethnic food location.
