As much as I like you guys and as much as I want to see New York because I have yet to, my time and money is limited, and I will spend it on my kids and grandkids. I would love to get sloshed and teach you the electric slide but nothing beats my grandson running full bore at me with a wide grin. I doubt I could toss any of you nearly as high in the air anyway.
I look forward to the pics anyway and I'm with you in spirit. Ah youth, thy name is not mine.
Also what the hell is the name of that building with the architecture like a seashell that you can see from hwy 75 dethtol?

Union Terminal. Home to the Museums of Natural History and History of Cincinnati, as well as the local Omnimax theater. It was formerly a majour passenger railroad hub, built in the 30s (hence the Art Deco orgy that still remains in the gigantic lobby.) Fun place to go, and relatively cheap (I think $8 per adult.) I don't get to go there much- a visit in I think March 2006 was the first time I've been there in years, and I didn't get to go again until I made two trips last November. Great fucking place, especially if you lust after giant model train sets like I do. Big old scale-model Cincinnati, mostly 1930s and 40s though some sections go back to the 1800s. Includes a day/night cycle with buildings that light up flaksjalksfjdlksdjaf drooling now

That is one fountainhead motherfucker. Knowmean dethtoll? I like it immensely. It reminds me of the way the more shiney bits flake off a seashell fossil. Genius SOB who did it. And I don't think you are more likely to get shot there than Columbus. Or bored.

Cincinnati has a far higher violent crime rate per capita than Columbus. In 2007 Cincinnati had 1,079 violent crimes in a city of about 330,000. Columbus had a population around 735,000 and 852 violent crimes. The worst criminals in Columbus are the politicians.

The 'bus is a fucking killing zone. I think it is directly related to the boredom and the humidity. Well, that and we are bisected by I-70 and I-71, 2 of the biggest drug pipelines in the country.

Lock up your beer and your daughters, New York, I'm coming for it.
Arrive stupid early Thursday the 4th, depart Tuesday morning (I'll probably busy myself with loner tourist activities on Monday. Man Fran all over again. Forgot Scots was leaving for Road Trip that day.)
Look forward to long, drunken arguments about George R.R. Martin.
Also top of the line pussy.
