Too Funny JS

Man does 3.2 beer bring back great memories. That's all they served in Oxford Ohio. Remember the Purity, The Boar's Head, great places to drink and PU women. Worked at the Boars's Head, still wonder how I graduated.

I haven't heard Tiffin Ohio in years. How about Lima, Ohio,
Fremont, Fostoria, on and on, Great little towns.

Geez I'm gettin homesick:(

Funny stuff JS :D

Ah, Canton.....man, the annual rib burnoff there is awesome. I go for the ribs...not the Hall of Fame Game.

My sister-in-law is an Ohio transplant living in Cape Coral, Fla. She still uses the term "pop" and people say..."you're from Ohio, aren't you?"

I should add.....
You can pronounce words like Olentangy and Cuyahoga
