  • Road Runner Regional Rodeo

    Unlike other rodeo’s I’ve been to (a staggering total of three) – the Road Runner Regional is now hosted at an ol’ western tourist trap on the north side of the city in Scottsdale. After a greasy breakfast at Denny’s, I got there with Scott in time for the opening ceremony. Wandering through the vendor…

  • One big city that seems to be planned proper

    Phoenix is a great town for bein’ so large. As the United States’ sixth-largest city with a population of nearly 1.3 million, I found it easy to navigate without the aid of a compass in the car. I drove from my friends house straight to the airport around noon and made it to the passenger…

  • The parking lot Cincinnati calls Interstate 71

    So I somehow managed to get up and pack in time to get to the airport (or so I thought)… when, last minute, I couldn’t find my specs. Heck knows I can function without my glasses, but I do enjoy being able to see, clearly. I rushed around the house looking high and low in…

  • Pre-Travel Night Owl

    Whenever I get ready for a trip, i spend the night before staying up WAY too late doing laundry, tidying up the house and getting work done. Tonight is no different. I leave for the airport in 3 hours. Argh. Not packed yet, but most everything is clean and ready in a pile on the…

  • The ideal job

    Just had an alumni from Ohio State drop a line, asking about options and opportunities in the Cincinnati area… For some reason, I felt compelled to write a long winded reply, as his questions seemed to hint, no declare, that he was frustrated with his vocation. After some link gathering and discussion about the Ohio…

  • Mmmm, grilled cheese

    Dang, January is going by quickly. I have a ton of things to have done absolutely-no-excuses by the end of the month. Work stuff, that is. I’ve no doubts that our office can handle it. I’m just prepping myself for the midnight oil that will have to be burned in order to get things wrapped…

  • Adaptation

    A friend once asked me, have you ever been in love. My initial reaction was agape. I replied, “Of course I have been in love. Many times.” I didn’t even have to think at all to bring the answer forth. This turned into a somewhat heavy conversation about what love is, which is certainly something…

  • Went out

    At 12:40 a.m. I decided I wanted a beer. So I went downtown to the bar and sat by myself for a while and nursed a good Bass Ale. They were playing music videos on the big projectiion TV and that kept my attention pretty well. As the quiet sort, I didn’t think any conversations…

  • I got my haircut.

    Tiny Tina is my barber located in Ludlow, Kentucky. Is she Tiny? I suppose she’s not a giant. I’ll ask her where the handle came from one of these days. I’ve been going to her ever since I moved back to Cincinnati from Columbus, 6 years ago. 6 years and I’ve not once cheated on…

  • Another mucked up evening

    Got to work a little late after having a whale of a time getting to sleep. Had a good meeting though with one of our fun clients, and touched base with an old colleague who helped breathe life into some design concepts that were stagnating. A dinner out at P.F. Changs and I left my…
