Make me a sandwich my neighborhood.

Cleveland invades Cincinnati.
My friends are coming down tomorrow and all I can think is,
"Oh shit."
I spent 18 dollars on a mercury Virgin statuette.
This is getting stupid.

Kelly,

Hey, your blog's been consistently great this year, though you've slowed down a bit recently. Your posts range from insightful to ferocious and humorous, and you spent a good deal of time dealing with the reading.

I hope you've had a good year (and I don't mean an automobile tire).

Have a good summer. This is me signing out.

Matt
