New York





here's some more photos, i'll get on the drinking game rules and actually writing stuff once my house had been constructed past third world status, there's a picture of it in there.

Drinking Games

Note: Okay, so john, I'm going to need you to add some to this, because I was asleep for most of the movies, and do not know the rules that were used.

These are drinking games we used for movies last week, following our nightly half hour Tran-a thon, which is much less controversial than it sounds.

These drinking games were modeled after famous movie games, like the one for The Big Lebowski:

Drink whenever someone says;
dude, sh*t, man, or shut the f*ck up donny 

Also drink whenever someone refers to;
the rug , vietnam, or nihilists

So, the movies.

Rules:
Drink when ;
someone dies in an unnecessary way ,
(ie arm restraint through temple)
someone kicks ahnold in the balls,
a crazy special effect or new technology is introduced

Waterfall when;
Someone's face is exploding on the surface of mars, 
until they die or oxygen stabilizes the atmosphere

Finish your drink when;
Ahnold says "See you at deh pahty Richtah!"


Rules:
Drink when;
any character says something they as a politician might have said on the campaign trail,
a gratuitous explosion happens that isn't physically possible,
Jessie Ventura resembles a character from Team Fortress 2 (basically all the time),
a commando dies.

Finish your drink when;
predator self destructs


Rules:
Drink whenever;
a new alien species is introduced,
you decide ruby rhod is being a tad too ridiculous (rarely),
Mongalores are being Mongoloids (always)

Finish your drink;
 when Korben Dallas says;
"negative. I am a meat popsicle"
"who else wants to negotiate"
or Ruby Rhod says;
"that's the best show I've ever done"


Rules:
Drink whenever you like, just enjoy the genius.

We tried really hard to find rules, 
but it isn't funny in a this happens this many times,
this person does this all the time

except for the general and bubble gum,
Dr. Strangelove and his arm,
and the president and calling Dmitri.

So if you so choose you may drink to these
Rules:
Drink whenever Kurt Russell is being Kurt Russell

I'm sorry, this movie made less sense to me than Ski School

so john can finish up the rules for this or

Less talk more pictures

Jake likes his words, I'm more about not writing.

So basically I'm going to be going from beautiful scenic wannabe ghetto


to maybe actually legit ghetto

there's a rough plan of things to do and see but for the most part I'm going to be playing it by ear and just trying to document some cool shit you just don't get in cincinnati.

Mark it!

Today is the first day in our beautiful journey from living in Cincinnati to anywhere but da 'nati.  Don't get me wrong, there are some great things about this city, but so much that discourages you and reminds you how little people know about how to encourage smart development of cities.  But I digress.

This journey will be a fairly regular feature, but not the sole purpose of this little distraction.

It starts today with my moving all my large pieces of furniture to my new place.  Which you would think would be the end of it, short story:

Guy moves out of Cincinnati. The rest is just him ranting about what is wrong with Cincinnati.

But.  That ranting is only a slight distraction.  
And. I'm not moving out of Cincinnati yet.
The plot thickens.

We are moving out, but tethered to this city by DAAP.  The college of Design Architecture Art and Planning at the University of Cincinnati.  It has our number, our money, and our begrudging love.  Until we are done here, we will never have truly left Cincinnati, and even then the coney's will be with us.

John and I are escaping the clutches this summer and next winter.  And we will be showing you what we are interested in obsessed with and possibly disgusted with.  For much of this time we will be on opposite sides of the Atlantische as the Dutch call it.  

There will be blurbs rants about burbs and giant killer robots, so beware.
