looks like the brewers are done after that sweep, family is in philly and a bit depressed.
maybe we'll get some batteries thrown at us at the game tonight and put us out of our misery


some observations so far:
1) sbr board is quite dead lately. must be others on vacation too.
2) cincinnati is super cheap. $1 food items at a stand at the game, river downs had free admission and $1 beer/hotdogs. parking was $2 on 6th street in a ramp for the baseball games.
3) pennsylvania sucks to drive through. yes ohio and michigan are hours worth of nothing but trees, but at least they don't charge you over $20 in tolls like these fukkers in pennsylvania.

4) there are a lot of rednecks in kentucky/cincinnnati area. jesus freaks, country music, etc. big country jamboree going on and it looked like everyone was getting drunk and screwing each other with cowboy boots on in the hills. come to think of it, that would've been great if my family wasn't with me
5) kingda ka and nitro are awesome rides. kingda ka is over 450 feet high, crazy
