I'm still trying to figure out how to use Glendale-Milford to get to Milford.

A lot of them got turned into race cars.

I'd say if you're going to do that, get something cheap to run such as an old Toyota 2wd pickup or maybe something like a '90s Civic or Corolla. Something that takes cheap tires and is easy on brakes. Preferably with a timing chain instead of a belt or just make it a throwaway if it throws a belt. The last thing you want to be doing is keeping up with annoying 4x4 maintenance, steering systems and tires. You will not be keeping up with the maintenance demands of any of these vehicles because the long commute will destroy all of your free time. You won't want to spend every Saturday at the shop. Long commutes can quickly erase any pay benefit of taking a job in another city even if you drive one of those '84 Mercury Topazes that gets 55mpg.

In Cincinnati? Yes. ;)

Those designations, no matter where they are, are just marketing. Like declaring West Virginia "Open for Business" or D.C.'s business district around the White House the "Golden Triangle".

"Ways" are for industrial parks.

I don't know about these big clothing retailers opening up near any campus. Campuses are not "sure things" most types of businesses. What is known to work near campuses? Food, bars, head shops, record stores, music venues, small specialty clothing stores (including team shops), book stores and laundromats. Even those aren't sure things... witness how many of those types of businesses close near campus. Campus rent is EXPENSIVE and you starve four months out of the year, including and especially Christmas. No Christmas means no profit. Even OSU doesn't have any major clothing retailers even with 50% more students. You can't include the Lennox since it serves Grandview, Arlington, parts of the West Side, 5XNW, Marble Cliff, Clintonville, Victorian Village, Harrison West and Franklinton. While the neighborhoods around UC do have a sizeable population, overall they aren't nearly as spendy as the neighborhoods I listed and don't have as many permanent residents to spend money at Christmas. Rent at the Lennox is cheaper than than around UC or else there wouldn't be a sea of parking around it, I'm sure. Also, that strip mall on Olentangy has high vacancy.

Snooki...I am almost positive she is NOT from NJ. She's actually Chilean. I know this.

Wow! Perhaps the craziest part is the woman who is in tears because the other woman was cooking meth. It might have been the fumes!

I heard a rumor about a gold shortage, but I think that was BS.

^ Well then you probably don't want to get into the differences between an "Ohio Super 2" and normal Super 2s. I'll hit the Interstate eventually, but first I'll take a Super 2.

Ahahaha, I just wound up in a Wal-Mart yesterday to buy CFLs because they're still heavily subsidized there (6 for $8 rather than $18 other places). Seemed like everyone was made out of sweatpant material.

Oh, and Snooki's hot.

You'd figure Zakk Wylde would be from the "Pretty Much Alabama" part, but he's actually from "Hipsters" territory. Hmmm, it probably wasn't hipster territory back when he was born.

I was by there this morning and it looked like they were already getting ready to run water and sewer lines through the parking lot.

That's another new thing. People in college drinking expensive beers.

Thing is, I agree with subocincy in that regard. Politicians almost always work to bring home the bacon in their home districts at the expense of others. I was pointing out that there are other retailers here and that infrastructure is available.

We do have other retailers based here -- Limited Brands, Abercrombie & Fitch (which is a separate company) and other spin-offs of Limited, Big Lots and what's left of Value City. Groveport, Rickenbacker and the intermodal facility have brought in distribution facilities for Eddie Bauer, Kmart, Spiegel, The Gap and Amazon.

^Hmm, so that's why every Guns 'N Roses set starts three hours late these days. Miller's limiting his transportation options.

They had us spend a day split between the two vocational schools. I got to try my hand at the construction trades, auto repair, electronics and auto body shop. In electronics, they had me solder three 9v batteries together to make a shocker for blasting people in the arm when they weren't looking. My folks thought that I wouldn't get into college if I went to the Vo-Tech, but I probably would have gotten into more schools with the better grades I would have gotten studying something that I actually cared about at the Vo-Tech. I even signed on to do the auto repair program before my folks c-blocked it and told me that I had to either go to college or start a business. Fine Mom and Dad, I spent my 20s partying rather than making money like my friends that went to the Vo-Tech did.

When did the jersey barrier on Dead Man's Curve go up, early '90s?

If you want to complain, Tom, the move into the city and vote. It was people like you that destroyed our cities, not people that actually understand them like most of City Council does. This is coming from someone that lives in Columbus now, sure, but frankly our opinion up here is probably more important than of someone who lives in Fairfield on the matter of the streetcar. Suburbanites do not get to bully cities any more.

Well, I did find this Russian beer called Baltika whose lager pretty much tastes like Budweiser, but better. There was definitely a quality difference, but of course it's $2.50 for a 50cl.

Her $45k salary was not enough and she needed at least an extra $500 a month and sometimes $1,000 to pay her credit card bills and afford her $1,475 a month apartment in Murray Hill. Then she discovered Match.com– the perfect site for a broke 23-year-old.

Cuts can't make money; they can only save it.
