Reminder: Be Happy

Cincinnati Imports has organized another happy hour, this one set tomorrow at Northside Tavern beginning at 5:30.

Just so there's no confusion (or excuses): this is not a blogger meet-up or twitterer tweet-up or anything like that. So while a few of us will make the trek to Northside from our behind-the-keyboard location in the basement of our mothers' houses, that's not true of the vast majority who showed up at the last, very well-attended happy hour put on by Liz, Lauren, and Avani.

Hope to see you there!

Digging a Hole

Chris Smitherman is digging himself a hole he will not get out of, unless he is looking for the GOP to drop him a rope.

Vigils and Tax Relief @ Hugo

Coverage of the Widmer Trial

It's wrapped up for the day, but WLWT is liveblogging the Ryan Widmer trial in Warren County. The software being used actually permits readers to pose questions to the blogger in real time. It's an interesting way of covering a live event and one that is, in this instance, quite effective.

Final Weekend For Bent

This weekend is the last chance to see Newstage Collective's production of Bent. The importance of this show is captured in the video preview:


Tickets are $20 and available on-line at www.newstagecollective.com or at the door. The final performances are April 2-4 at 8 PM and April 5 at 3 PM. Don't miss this show.

NAACPCOAST

Kevin Osborne uncovers the unseemliness of the Chris Smitherman and Chris Finney relationship.

He has another blog post adding to the print article.

Yeah, I really don't see how anyone can see the Finney-Smitherman union as anything other than a "Fuck You" to the GLBT community.

Is Smitherman tilting the local NAACP to the right on some issues to appease Finney? This article puts that thought in my mind. That aside, I think the Enquirer needs to stop reacting to every press release from Smitherman.

Miami Makes Frozen Four!

Love and honor to Miami,
Our college old and grand,
Proudly we shall ever hail thee,
Over all the land.

Alma mater now we praise thee,
Sing joyfully this lay,
Love and honor to Miami,
Forever and a day.
