Title: Cincinnati Will Eat You Alive and Other Tangents Post by: TraderJake on April 04, 2006, 10:46:19 AM Quote you guys need to show up. Sauza and I will hunt you down if we don't see you at the show. hell, admission is free. Good luck finding us. The West Side of Cincinnati would eat you alive. Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: den68 on April 04, 2006, 12:22:17 PM meh, we're coming from Detroit.
Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: TraderJake on April 04, 2006, 07:24:55 PM True, but it's not the people that will eat you, it's the roads that will never let you escape.

Especially during pothole season. Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: den68 on April 05, 2006, 04:42:52 AM we've got potholes that will swallow you whole here too. that's why Michigan roads are under construction 90% of the time.

Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: Hydrobond on April 05, 2006, 07:05:36 AM Detroit is the top frame. Cincy is the bottom frame.
You guys get a nice grid street layout, we get complete convolution.  Not to mention the streets change names all the time.  You can be on the same piece of road, but it will change names 4 different times as you drive down it. http://www.hydrobond.net/forum/cincydetroitin.gif http://www.hydrobond.net/forum/cincydetroitout.gif Here's the culprit: (http://www.cincinnati-transit.net/275-37.jpg) (This is a stretch of I-275 around Cincinnati.) edit: damn tags Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: TraderJake on April 05, 2006, 01:39:12 PM Northern Kentucky.
They like to think that they are truly from Kentucky, but let's face it -- they're not. Northern Kentucky. If they're wasn't a River separating them, you'd never know it wasn't in Ohio. Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: Hydrobond on April 05, 2006, 01:51:50 PM Careful, don't be telling people we associate with Kentucky.
Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: TraderJake on April 05, 2006, 02:01:52 PM We don't. We just go there to pillage their entertainment and shoot guns right in front of the movie box office.
Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: Pop Culture Portal on April 05, 2006, 04:35:20 PM Quote Careful, don't be telling people we associate with Kentucky. Hey! >:( Oh..... :'( No love for us hillbillies. Looks like I'll have to miss this one, unfortunately, even though it's within reasonable driving distance for me. My wife has to play Easter Bunny this weekend and I have to guard the house an our daughter (don't ask). One of these days I'll stop talking about going to one of these things and actually show up. Oh well. Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: Hydrobond on April 05, 2006, 04:40:23 PM Quote Hey! >:( It was in jest. In reality, a lot of people in Cincinnati go across the river on a regular basis for entertainment and to take advantage of the lower taxes. We just don't want to admit it.

Party Source? ...14 days Man way for us to derail a topic. Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: Pop Culture Portal on April 05, 2006, 05:16:16 PM :laugh: ;) :laugh:
And, yes, I knew you guys were kidding. ;) Title: Re: Cincy Classic Post by: Hydrobond on April 05, 2006, 05:48:43 PM Quote Party Source? ...14 days Man way for us to derail a topic. You have 2 weeks. I have 2 months. Damn you. Title: Re: Cincinnati Will Eat You Alive and Other Tangen Post by: TraderJake on April 05, 2006, 06:29:58 PM It isn't as though 2 months has stopped you from drinking before.
Title: Re: Cincinnati Will Eat You Alive and Other Tangen Post by: chrisbid on April 18, 2006, 10:24:51 AM cincinnati is entrenched in a major river valley, and the roads reflect fact. i grew up there, and now i live in columbus, and i have to say one of the things i miss most about cincy are the hills and terriain. columbus is all boring squares except for a few subdivisions and watersheds.
Title: Re: Cincinnati Will Eat You Alive and Other Tangen Post by: archetype on April 18, 2006, 01:33:05 PM How about this Houston traffic. Mmmm

You wouldn't know it, but parts of the Scioto River Valley are part of an ancient river valley. I don't believe that the pre-glacial Teay's River flowed through Columbus, but I know it did meander along the same valley the Scioto of today does. Title: Re: Cincinnati Will Eat You Alive and Other Tangen Post by: Tynstar on April 19, 2006, 07:15:04 AM All that traffic is for the weak. You should see LA's traffic.
Title: Re: Cincinnati Will Eat You Alive and Other Tangen Post by: TraderJake on April 19, 2006, 08:17:30 AM Well LA gets what it deserves in terms of traffic. A huge city with a poor mass transit system and a bunch of rich yuppies is sure make your transit system car oriented.
Title: Re: Cincinnati Will Eat You Alive and Other Tangen Post by: The Metamorphosing Leon on April 19, 2006, 08:51:09 AM Yeah, let's nuke LA.
