December 16, 200816 yr lmao I love that picture MTS. The Navy is the butt of all gay jokes thats for sure. The Air Force and Navy defnitely have it made compared to the other two branches of service though. I thought the AF was the "gay club" of the military. Most of the gay men I know are in the Air Force. I can assure you that it is the Navy. They are also the only service with their name on their butts. REALLY? MTS---think about the Village People and it shouldn't suprise you.

We won't have cars. Is the much to do beside enjoy the beach around the hotel?

So you can walk down to Lincoln Road Mall and Ocean Avenue.

I'll be at the Westin Diplomat in Hollywood, FL for the week of NYE...looking forward to some sunshine... I love the Diplomat. They take care of the Platinums very well. I can't wait for the W South Beach to open. The W will be slightly less convienient than the R-C, but I love me a W Hotel. Restaurant Suggestions: Table 8 - try the lounge menu, the grilled chees is slamming! Le Bon OLA - ceviche, ceviche, ceviche Escopazzo Grillfish - yummy Blue Door Van Dyke Big Pink - My nephews & Nieces love this place. Very Tommy's on Coventry feel. Nemo - yummy

December 16, 200816 yr MTS- I will be in Miami next month...any of those restaurants Cuban? If not, have any cuban suggestions?
December 16, 200816 yr Random dear diary moment.... Liquid/Fusion was packed last night, on a Monday! Anyway, I got the phone number of a Rockette who's in town for the Radio City Spectacular. I needed to brag somewhere.
December 16, 200816 yr MTS- I will be in Miami next month...any of those restaurants Cuban? If not, have any cuban suggestions? Ola, yuca and novecento. You pretty much have to understand/read/speak spanish in most. I think yuca stand for young, upstanding cubans in america. There are also place on Espanola Way, but they are mom and pop places. Do you speak spanish? If so try Puerto Sagua, it's a dive but my grand parents love it. Look for the dominoe players.

December 16, 200816 yr They played at Cooper Stadium in Columbus! You could hear them for miles, unfortunately. You had to be there! I remember when I was elementary school, we did the "YMCA" dance in gym class as a warm up. Did you ever see the movie "Just Can't Stop the Music"? It has to be the worst movie I have ever seen in my life. Why they made a movie starring the Village People and Steve Guttenberg, I will never understand.

December 17, 200816 yr I don't want people to morn me AFTER I'm gone. I don't think you'll have to worry about that! JUST KIDDING! Couldn't resist. You set yourself up for it! D@mn MTS, that's harsh Too bad this guy doesn't have your precision. I swear it's like the secret service prepared Bush for objects being flown at him. He didn't get all flustered or anything. It was like he expected it at some point throughout his term.

December 17, 200816 yr I’m glad everybody is so delighted that it’s open season to throw shoes at the President of the United States. I’ll keep that in mind, and a file of all of your comments if, God forbid, someone attempts this on Obama once he takes office. After all, any future shoe-throwers--excercising their right to free speech--will just be “dissidents” who have a “disagreement” with the direction in which he’s taking the country; and apparently, if he’s hit and sustains an injury, so much the better! To reiterate those old but time-honored cliches, what goes around comes around and you reap what you sow. http://www.mainstreetpainesville.org/

It might have knocked some sense into him.

I doubt he would ever foster the kind of hatred GWB manages to. Besides that, it was just a shoe. I wouldn't wish an assasination on him or anything.

Then I imagine you and your false rage will love this: http://www.sockandawe.com/ Its really not rage, its more calling out the hypocrisy of this board. Board hates Bush = shoe throwing "light hearted" and no big deal. Board loves Obama = shoe throwing intolerable (had it been him up there). Don't be blind to it. A big difference between GWB and Obama is that Obama has empathy for other people's views. I doubt he would ever foster the kind of hatred GWB manages to. Besides that, it was just a shoe. I wouldn't wish an assasination on him or anything. Is that right? I thought I saw countless "Republicans only spew hate towards Obama" during the campaign yet now you're going to dismiss the possibility of something like this happening to him? Uh, right... The President, regardless of whether you agree with his views or not, is still OUR President...be it Bush now or Obama in the future. The position will always be a lighting rod for controversy but as a citizen of the US, you should not be tolerant of this behavior.

No other president has ever had higher disapproval ratings than Bush and you're surprised that people are laughing at a shoe being thrown at him at a press conference in Iraq? You are taking this way too seriously. If he was ASSASINATED and a video was posted in which I responded "LOL!!" then yeah, it would be inappropriate. Some of you Republicans are deficient of humor!
December 18, 200816 yr I just got the best Christmas present one could ask for. My friends are all aware of my obsession with Cincinnati. So Dan, my sculpture major friend, decided to make a flying pig sculpture for me. He also wanted to give a little piece of "himself" to me. So here's the result:
December 18, 200816 yr Pigs did used to run wild in the streets of Cincinnati. I wonder what it would be like walking down Vine Street in the late 1800s and see a pig walk by. edit: I guess it would have been the early 1800s: As salt pork became a U.S. staple during this time period, Cincinnati’s success followed. With pigs transported off ships and herded in the streets, the name Porkopolis became commonplace during the late 1820's. Although the pork packing industry was a source of financial wealth, the images of pigs wandering the streets at times caused embarrassment for the local area. Scandals also existed over the hog slaughtering processes and eventually led to government regulation.
