Wright Neighorhood
Dayton, Ohio neighborhood where Orville and Wilbur Wright had their bicycle shop. Ohio license plates call it the "Birthplace of Aviation."

Patriotic Parfait
This fine display of perfect patriotic parfaitness spotted at Ponderosa in Jackson, Ohio. Yummy in the tummy, too.

Generation Gap
Overheard at a Columbus, Ohio ('As goes Ohio, so goes the nation') Donato's Pizzeria.
Sixty something white male says to twenty something black female:
"Did you hear the one about Chelsea Clinton...?"
(proceeds to tell sexist joke)
Young woman ignores joke entirely and says:
"Did you vote for her?" (meaning Hillary, of course)
He scoffs:
"No, are you kidding me?"
She queries:
"So you voted for Barack?"
"No," he huffs.
"Oh," it all becomes clear to her now, "you didn't vote."
Post Script: Of course he voted, but for McCain.

Old Fashioned
It's a big day in Ohio and I have never felt so freaking old fashioned. The average age of the folks I know who are supporting Hillary is easily 60+. The only friends I know of who are voting for Hillary besides me are Johnny and Robin and they are just as old fashioned as me, so that still leaves me feeling like an old fogey. Hmmm, it will be interesting to see what happens. This old feminist is sticking with Hil for now though.

Push play.
Can't get enough of this song. See the movie ASAP if you haven't already (thanks to Sarah and Lisa for the tip). By far one of the best 'music movies' I have seen in years. PS They are will be in Cleveland on May 11th, anyone up for a road trip?

Lost In Middle America
That's how the townies refer to Lima, Ohio.
Look right, look left, then look right again.
irony in action.

Music for Winter
Before the amazing Shelby Lynne CD, this was my favorite song of the moment. Gotta love a Sarah spin-off.

Rewind
As I told Joyce, I keep rewinding every time I listen to this cd, I can not get past the first 4 tracks. 'Anyone Who Had a Heart' is my fav so far, particularly at 2:30 into the song.
And, yes, I am old school.
BTW, this photo is gorgeous.

75 Minutes:Mansfield
I have still not purchased my new camera, though I am decided on the Canon EOS 30D. In any case, I am on a quest to document my travels around the state while attending meetings/events for my job. I took the easy way out and made this video in iphoto, so it's nothing fancy, but I want to post things as they happen, so here it is.
