Not to be outdone...

...Cincinnati had to prove it could suck just as badly as Kentucky, and went ahead and painted over a kickass mural.

I know it was the owner's property, so they can change their mind and paint over it blah blah blah. I don't really care. All I know is that whatever was on that wall was suckier than the kickass mural. Plus, I'm guessing Madisonville's Spectrum Nightclub wasn't exactly the must-see spot in town.

I know this news is a few weeks old, but I'm not exactly Mr. Current Events. I don't know much about the new iPhone either. Because iPhones are stupid.

Another Reason Kentucky Blows

I know I don't exactly take it easy on KY too often, but that's because most of the time Kentucky sucks. Being from Ohio, I'm not going to pretend Ohio doesn't suck, because it does. It's just that Kentucky sucks worse.

Case in point: My hometown (Cincinnati), gets kickass street artist guy Shepard Fairey to come in town and paint some murals around town. They talk to local businesses owners and find some people willing to dontate the side of their buidlings. Everyone agrees, murals are painted, everyone wins.

And then Kentucky comes in. The guy in Covington (Northern Kentucky) who agreed to let his building have a mural painted on it decides it's too controversial and thinks the image (a child soldier holding a machine gun) promotes kid violence. So he had it painted over. Total douche move.

Maybe if the child soldier was wearing cutoff denim shorts it would have been deemed ok for Kentucky.

It's Only Frozen Water

It snowed again today, and it was a whopping 3 inches or something, didn't even stick to the streets, and my morning commute was a little wet.

But schools were canceled. If I really gave a shit, I'd probably tell a 'when I was a boy' story to show how tough we had it, but to be honest, I'm kinda pumped all these pansy-ass kids get an extra few days off. It's good practice for the corporate world, where 99% of your co-workers drink at lunch, surf the internets all day and leave early.

Last weekend, when it snowed a bunch, I went to a museum, and not only did I not melt or explode, the museum was still open. And the art was there. Crazy. Speaking of crazy, they have some new lights in that corridor thing that connects the National Gallery East and West buildings. So I took a picture.
