kjbrill can't make these connections because event chains in his mind are only two links long. "Streetcart got built. Money disappeared." "Guy got on streetcar. Fare was $1.60 but would have been $1.85 at market rate. Streetcar lost money" Not even "Streetcar got built. People left Mason. kjbrill's house lost value". That's 3 links. Or "Streetcar got built. People left Mason. kjbrill never had to deal with 'conjestion' again"

Concentrate on getting people in and out of that shopping center before they throw up their arms in frustration and just quit going. This Kenwood Connection is just adding to an already chronic condition. I likely will never see the light of day in its environs as it is so much more convenient to shop in Deerfield. More traffic flow trolling. zzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Give it up.

Um, SAF, do you really think that my fellow retailers and I don't see through what you're trying to do? It's not like we are sitting around hemming and hawing on whether to locate in your developments until we saw your posts. "Ah, I was thinking of another property or even not expanding at all, but then this internet user, SAF, really made me want to sign a lease. A long lease. And what the heck, I'll even take on 10,000 more square feet than I was planning and not even bother negotiation on the lease rate. That user's informercial-like tone really sealed the deal" You aren't selling Shamwows, OK? You need to act more professionally. There are plenty of other members of the development and real estate community that use this site daily who know better than to take on a Billy Mays persona.

So what town you put on your Facebook page counts as evidence now? What if you put "Parts Unknown" like the Ultimate Warrior?

They look like bug zappers.

And that modern address numbers weren't popular then.

Love the warm welcome from some true NYC natives in pic #1!

Kasich's overly-generous offer to Sears was mere political posturing because both he and Sears knew that they weren't actually going to move here. It also had the side effect of shaking down their current location for more money.

I remember the first time I watched, er, played Myst at a Media Play.

Our farm had two boarding units. One over the old separate kitchen building and one over the 1920s wooden kitchen addition to the main house that was removed in the '70s and replaced with an uber-'70s brick addition. Presumably, initially they were for the help, but as having help for anybody but the very rich fell out of favor in the '50s (or before) that kind of boarding activity took place. There were also more single-family houses on the property that were demolished as farming became less labor intensive. Even washing machines, vacuum cleaners, refrigeration, microwaves and oil/gas/electric furnaces created unemployment for the unskilled.

I thought that Alternate Reality video was going to break out for a second.

I'm not getting rid of my iPod just because I got a smart phone. It's worth 10% of what the phone costs, is lighter, has actual buttons (er, a "clickwheel") that you can feel without having to look at the screen. I'm not going to chance eating it on asphalt while running just to change songs. And if i drop it nothing bad happens because it weighs 2 oz. The last thing anyone wants when they run is a bulky, expensive item tagging along. Lately I've also found myself doing dirty, strenuous physical labor AGAIN (thanks Pickaway County upbringing, you've just kept giving since age 12) that would be rough on the phone even with cases and screen protectors. The last thing I need is them telling me my warranty is void because I am constantly sweating all over the phone. If something bad does happen to an iPod on the other hand, I can buy another iPod from my own business for like $40.

Pet peeve! When acts change clothes a bunch of times in one video it makes my brain hurt, especially if they go back and forth between outfits a bunch of times.

I wonder if the mayor's son sings that when he's drunk.

UDFs are a lot sketchier in Seabus than they are in the 'Nati.

Bo Knows Hillard

You never really know what happens to those guys. For all I know they pass out on the floor, flash a couple times and then disappear like guys you beat up in Double Dragon.

That's the kind of stuff you hear at a drug dealer's apartment in a place like Northside or Old North Columbus when your buddy makes you come with him to buy stuff off of someone he met at the bar.

Now remember, if you can't get tab H into panel B you probably aren't going to have fun with this model anyway.

Maybe it's damage control for Urban Strike, the SNES/Genesis game from the mid-90s where the bad guy, "Malone" hatches a plot to blow up the World Trade center with a laser in 2001. Story starts at 1:00: I might have told this story before, but I was in the middle of playing this game when Winburn and Malone showed up to my apartment building while people were tailgating for a UC game in 2007.

I took my grandma to a doctor in the Chase building once in the '90s.

So anything but auto-dependance and continued investment in auto-oriented infrastructure that matches current spending is "taking steps backward"? Free yourself from linear thought. I know you may not feel that you are trapped in it but your language betrays you.

It's unbelievable how people can take things for granted. Downtown Columbus in 1989 taught me everything I needed to know about preservation. Maybe there's some kind of scary tram tour of Columbus '89 that they can send Cincinnatians on so that they learn to appreciate what they have.

It really is shocking how if you go back to the '70s and '80s how many fast food joints were in the cores of mid-size Midwest cities such as the 3Cs and how few there are now. They need that drive-through and breakfast money now that the food service industry works on smaller margins and it's much tougher to make money without a liquor license.
