YOU DARN SKIPPY, IDEAL08!! You gots to be from here to appreciate it. Straight from a native born's mouth

NO OTHER CITY IN AMERICA has a majority black leadership for a majority white city (76% white, to be exact). In your defense, I can see why you wouldn't want to raise a family here. Because you (and CT4) are single and may not be able to see that Columbus is a very good city to raise a family. I will also say in your defense that this city isn't very conducive to singles when it comes to places to kick it, which IMHO is probably why First Fridays (and It's Just Lunch) is making $$ hand over fist with single folk.

I will admit that Columbus rides OSU's jock like....well, you fill in the blank. I have NEVER attended OSU (and don't plan to) I will be a Capital U. Crusader until the day I die, y'unnerstan?

Anyway, I will make allowances for yours and CT4s dissatifaction with my lovely city because in part because we are all young and single and I can see where you are coming from. But when you get married and start a family, I will have a couple of houses here ready with both your names on it.

Now I will say that CT4 made IMHO a good choice in relocating. Charlotte is No. 2 on my relocating list. (Atlanta #1 and Chicago #3). DC I wouldn't move to for all the game shows in Hollywood.

I knew you would respond!! This way, people can get the full perspective. Not for all the game shows in Hollywood?! That is a STRONG sentiment from you!!! The Columbus Public School system is in academic distress; last on the list in Franklin County. Gene Harris is doing a good job, though, I think. We'll see what happens after tomorrow. Let me know, ok?

And being a Capital Crusader might be cool, but being a WITTENBERG TIGER is even better!! Ask Jeanette (sp?) Bradley! Oh, let me know about that, too!!!
