...Or on a business trip; whichever comes first.
I just spent the last couple of days in Cinci on business. Its an interesting city that seems to have more of a Kentucky feel to it than an Ohio one. Of course the line between Kentucky and Cinci is pretty thin so its understandable. In fact the Cincinnati airport is physically located in the state of Kentucky.
So what do you do when you're there if you have some free time to kill? Well free time isn't something that I had a lot of but here's what the burg has to offer.

Check out the Architecture. There are some really cool buildings in Cinci. One of the coolest ones I saw is a condo for the rich and famous (read Cincinnati Reds). Everyone has different tastes though. A jaunt through the college campuses of Xavier and U of Cinci will expose you to several different architctural styles.

My favorite thing to do outside of hangin with Kelly was try to get free shit because I share a name with one of Cinci's favorite sons. To be fair, it was more of the people I was with trying to get free shit for themselves because of it but now I'm just splittin hairs. Mostly it just resulted in meeting some pretty interesting characters and hearing a lot of cool stories about folks' lives.
Oh and here's a quick tip for you air travelers. Because of the foot surgery I had a few months back I sometimes use a cane to relieve some of the discomfort. If you think you're going to find yourself sitting at the aiport terminal with several dozens of your soon to be close personal friends take a cane. When they call for the pre boarding of passengers that may require assistance hobble up to them and go store your shit in the overhead compartments before they all fill up. You don't want to be holding people up because you're a gimp do ya? Of course you don't.
