Posted August 10, 200618 yr "Big Strong Men Will Very Rarely Eat Pork Chops." What does this riddle mean? I found this on the internet today and thought it was cool. Hint: it's related to Ohio.
August 10, 200618 yr I'd never heard that until ColDayMan used it one day...if you know it, don't post it - let folks try to figure it out!
August 10, 200618 yr Broadway, Sycamore, Main, Walnut, Vine, Race, Elm, Plum and Central Verticle streets downtown :]
August 10, 200618 yr No one is going to get that without prior knowledge or googling, RV, unless they've recently been studying their metric scale or planets, or something of that sort (hint, hint). edit: Nevermind, David just revealed.
August 10, 200618 yr All I saw were the first four words of the subject "Big Strong Men Will...". Needless to say, the thread turned out to be quite a letdown ;-) clevelandskyscrapers.com Cleveland Skyscrapers on Instagram
August 10, 200618 yr Oops...just saw what Riverviewer wrote...guess i'll let others guess Ach, no big deal - just thought it would be a fun thing to puzzle out one's self, but Ink is right, it probably would have been awfully tough to figure out without some clever clues...I know I wouldn't have thought of it, probably...
August 10, 200618 yr All I saw were the first four words of the subject "Big Strong Men Will...". Needless to say, the thread turned out to be quite a letdown ;-) we're you hoping for vegan bodybuilders?
August 10, 200618 yr I know what you mean, MayDay ... this thread held lots of promise for the first few words. Oh well. Back to thinking about urban affairs. Well, the Cincy folk shouldn't have all the fun (and you know how us Clevelanders have to make it all about us :wink:) ... any suggestions for remembering the east-west roads that intersect with Ontario between 2 & 90 (memorizing our vertical streets seems a little ridiculous, given our numeric grid)? Lakeside, St. Clair, Rockwell, Superior, Euclid, Prospect, Huron, Eagle/Erie, Carnegie I wasn't feeling incredibly creative, but it at least seems timely: Let's Show Republicans Some Electoral Pollsters Have Enormous Concerns
August 10, 200618 yr ^That's a bit too much. Make it more simple for quick memories and it'll work. "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
August 15, 200618 yr OK......... Leave some road space, everyone push his egg cartons! .............uh, there's gotta be something better than that! That's all I could come up with.......
June 22, 201212 yr I remember being taught it as a kid, possibly in school, but to this day I have trouble remembering it. Guess it's not a very good mnemonic device. Not for me, anyway. I just remember it's something about pork chops, haha.
June 22, 201212 yr King Henry Died By Drinking Chocolate Milk is what I learned in school and It has nothing to do with streets. Its actually school related. Funny thing is that I remember the phrase but cant remember what it is for. I had to google it to remember.
June 22, 201212 yr A sister of mine moved to Cincinnati (North College Hill) about 4 years ago. I told her this but she hates hates hates downtown so she remembers "Big Strong Men Will Very Rarely Eat Pork Chops", but doesn't know the names of the downtown streets at all.
June 22, 201212 yr King Philip Came Over For Good Sex Believe it or not, thanks to TV Funhouse, that is how I remember Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species.
June 22, 201212 yr My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine.....what?? Pluto's planet status was revoked! This mnemonic device is busted, and will forever be a cliffhanger.
June 22, 201212 yr What about Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally? is that order of operations in math? Yup!
