    In honor of Lou Piniella retiring here’s a great video of the 1990 World Series Champion Reds.

    Flat tops, crazy glasses, Marge Schott and Riverfront Stadium. Pretty much everything is 90s in this video, including the music.

  3. A GLANCE around a Skyline Chili parlor indicates a prescribed method for eating the chili. Beginning at one end of the mound of chili, each bite is cut in a wedge shape and lifted carefully to the mouth. Drops of chili sauce stray, so plastic bibs are provided. As the chili disappears from the plate, oyster crackers are crushed and added to soak up the sauce.

    The picture is Skyline; the article is Skyline. But everyone knows Gold Star reigns supreme.

  4. Cincinnati is a beautiful city; cheerful, thriving, and animated. I have not often seen a place that commends itself so favourably and pleasantly to a stranger at the first glance as this does: with its clean houses of red and white, its well-paved roads, and footways bright tile. Nor does it become less prepossessing on a closer acquaintance. The streets are broad and airy, the shops extremely good, the private residences remarkable for their elegance and neatness.

  8. [Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]

    Think about this little girl’s voice the next time you hear the GOP blocking unemployment benefits. Not everyone is a fat slob sitting at home collecting checks. Most folks are only a paycheck away from this themselves.
