Cincinnati, OH

Saturday July 5, 2008

     10:30am  Woke up with six hours of sleep.

      11:20am  Tom eventually woke up. I had that little roach from last night. Where are we going right now? All four of us are going to the bank to get some money and then to Perkins for breakfast. Tom, Kim, Joe and I. Then afterwards we're going to a bike show. Good publicity for world peace through marijuana.

     11:42am  We just got to Perkins.
                  
     2:47pm  I am riding in the back of Joe-nig's truck. I don't know where we are going. Oh yeah, I got to take a shower and do my laundry. I am totally being treated like royalty in Cincinnati.

                   We came to this bike show and the band that was playing did a rock and roll version of Bust-A-Move by Young MC. I know all the words to that song. I was singing it hardcore.

     3:53pm Me and Joey, Joe-nig, we're going to go stack some wood. At Cicada's house.

     5:52pm  We came and bought some drinks at the cantina at Don Pablos. I am technically in Kentucky right now. On the other side of the river.

     6:12pm  I forgot to tell you, we came to Hooters here in Newport, Kentucky. I took a picture of the yellow Mac Bridge and the purple pedestrian bridge. In the background is the stadium where the Cincinnati Reds play. USBank Arena. Look up the story on the internet about how twelve people got trampled to death at the USBank Arena:

Eleven people were trampled to death Dec. 3, 1979,
when fans rushed the doors at the arena -- then known
as Riverfront Coliseum -- for a concert by the Who.
Cincinnati later banned festival seating, allowing
reserved seats only, and started new crowd control
measures.

     11:39pm  What another magical night I have had at this party over by the Hooter's at some bar. I took pictures and everything. I took pictures of my new automatic-friends from Cincannati. There was a cool cover band playing. I was standing up and walking around and getting so many great reactions. I am totally loving this adventure.

     12:20am  About five minutes ago we got back home. 1700 Joseph Court.

     12:46am  Tom's got me smoking some Columbian Pale. I've been hangint with Tom Skaggs and Joe-Nig all day.

                      I don't think I've documented it, but I went to two bike shows today, right? Oh yeah, and at one of the bike shows I bought me a new head-cover do-rag, I guess I can call it. It's camouflauge and I was really getting annoyed with my dreadlocks being in my face since I lost both of my hats. Luckily they had a camo thing for six bucks! I'll get a picture of it eventually.

Next day..
