    Hey, Toyotathon is a stressful time!
  2. At SSU there's one 2x2' concrete square that allows preachers. The rest of campus is off limits. And they won't tell you which one it is. You have to find it on your own.
  3. The standard for complexes on large plots used to be -- for a very long time -- two stories but now it is three. Now we are starting to see more fours.
  4. Sounds like a place to meet these guys: https://www.theonion.com/gop-maintains-solid-hold-on-youth-that-already-look-lik-1819595704
  5. They do, which means there's no motivation to "do better".

    When I was a kid a guy over at the trailer park stole a motorcycle then put 97X stickers all over it so that people wouldn't think it was local (to Columbus). He still got busted.
  8. I hear there was a killer vintage motorcycle collection in that building. I imagine the bikes came out OK. Didn't want to mention it before for security reasons.
  9. They're close but not as close as the two Waffle Houses on Brice.
  10. That is the Obetz skyline now.
  11. This area is starting to see a lot of interest from warehouse developers. But resistance to warehouses exists here, unlike places like Obetz, Groveport and northern Pickaway County.
  12. More crappy state-level policy. One reason the Rs want to give everything to the states is so that we have a bunch of crappy state laws that make government dysfunctional.
  13. I've been wondering about this too. Usually us car folk hear about stuff like this. People are even tinting their front windshields dark which was super illegal.
  14. I lived next to UC Hospital and a fire station at the same time and didn't notice sirens after a month. Close to Rickenbacker for about 27 years too and the only time I got really annoyed was when, unbeknownst to me at the time, my buddy had his Airborne guys hover over my house with a twin rotor helicopter as a nav exercise. He was like, "Did you hear us?" Yes, yes I did.
  15. Around Mother's Day most things get slow except for restaurants and flower shops. Hallmark
  16. And you wonder why the boys all wanna stay home and play video games instead.
  17. I get a kick out of those bite-size crossovers they have now like the Ford EcoSport and Buick Encore. Jeez, just buy a car.
  18. I like the schools that got torn down by using the internet as an excuse. Like they didn't see wireless coming so 5 years of no wireless happened and every school gets torn down then even caves and mountain bikes can connect to your phone.
  19. That's why the current mix of new cars is so narrow. The only people under 40 that can buy new cars are engineers, nurses and tradespeople.
  20. The trailer park I grew up across from had plenty of kids with reading issues. And speech ones.
  21. I hate cursive. Just looks like a bunch of l's. Definitely remember people rejecting my signature 25 years ago because it was in monogram. But you know it is way easier to make your signature look like a metal band logo in monogram.
  22. I'd also consider doing some "Child in Time" on that setup but wouldn't want to keep it around.
  23. I have a 2nd grade phonics game for an Atari computer. I can only finish the first level because I grew up with Whole Language instead. It's hilarious. The rabbit in the game is disappointed with me.
  24. An antique shop that used to be in Portsmouth said they sold a Hammond organ 3 times for $50 and the people would never pick it up. I told a couple buddies about it and they went over there and bought it ironically then never picked it up.
