  • Ohio Tourism Board’s Campaign to Attract California Visitors

    Ohio Tourism Board’s Campaign to Attract California Visitors

    Ohio Tourism Board's Campaign to Attract California Visitors

    The Ohio Tourism Board has a new campaign to attract visitors from California.  RAIN and WATER.  Ok not really but they probably should.

    How many of you plan a vacation and say “Hey let’s go to OHIO!!”  Probably not many unless you are coming for a specific event or maybe a regional trip to Kings Island or Cedar Point.   Other than that, Ohio just doesn’t get the respect that other states do when attracting conventions and visitors.

    This can all change with the recent news from California, that due to the extended drought conditions, Governor Jerry Brown introduced mandatory water use restrictions.  Ohioans complain about the long gray winters and rain filled springs.  But I think we need to make that our advantage.  Sure there is flooding today but that means more fresh water for all you Californians to consume.

    So come to Ohio!

  • Editorial Cartoon: California Wind Storm Caption Contest

    Editorial Cartoon California Wind Storms Caption Contest

    Today’s editorial cartoon started as usual with me reading about the terrible Wind Storms in California last week.  Of course nature was the cause but what if it were something else.  Thus began my problem.  There are so many choices for the cause of severe wind….

    • A Republican National Debate was in town.
    • The Friggin Loon visited California last week (for the uninformed she is reported to have terrible gas)
    • An A-list actor purporting to support the Occupy movement while reaming his/her accountant for not finding enough tax shelters/loopholes.

    So do you like any of those?  Or come up with something to top it.  Let your creative juices flow…

  • Editorial Cartoon: What if Prop 19 Passed?

    Editorial Cartoon on Prop 19 Marijuana California

    So Prop 19 in California FAILED at the ballot.  This was the ballot initiative that would have legalized and regulated marijuana in the state.  The idea being that decriminalizing it would bring in much needed tax revenue and decrease the prison burden.

    Young voters in California appeared to overwhelmingly support the measure, however, they must have been too high to actually go and vote on the issue.

  • Oral Sex Banned from School…Dictionaries

    1 26 10 Bearman Cartoon Webster Dictionary Oral Sex

    Thanks to the Friggin Loon for the heads up on this story.  It seems a California School has decided to yank the dictionaries out of a K-8 school because they found out that the definition of the word “oral sex” was contained within.  Oh my!!!! 

    Actually I remember as a kid skimming through the dictionary with my friends to find the most offensive words we could.  And good or bad, these days kids are far less naive than we were.  Parents don’t control what their kids watch or see on the internet.  And trust me, even if 99% of them did, a kid will befriend the one kid in town whose parents don’t.

    And before you ask…no I didn’t do internet porn research.  I don’t even know if BigBoobieGirls.com is a real website.  Someone whose other half isn’t staring intently over their shoulder as they post this particular cartoon might want to check and report back.

    Speaking of being naive…I can remember in 7th grade a girl in my class coming up and asking me “are you a virgin?”.  To which I replied…”NO!  I am a Cancer!!!”
