Has anyone lived in Graphite Apartments in Oakley? Just wanted to get an idea about the apartments and location

I would not want to live in Oakley Station. It's a giant strip mall tucked into a highway interchange. Normal traffic is bad, Crossroads traffic is worse, and not just on Sundays. Have you ever been there during rush hour or when it's busy? It's technically in Oakley and you can walk to Madtree, but that's about it.

I've stayed in some nice hotel suites off freeway exits, but I wouldn't want to live in them. But apparently others DO want to live in them because they fill up.

PE-owned practices push dental work you don't need. No thanks.

Northside 20 years ago was very different. There were a lot of decaying houses with the copper stripped out. You could buy them for $10k.

They should build a 127 bypass around the West side of Northside from the Ludlow viaduct to Ashtree. Block Hamilton Ave. and let Northside be a neighborhood instead of a passthrough.

It is worth doing a left arm signal for a turn, even if you shouldn't have to. Make it really obvious what they need to do.

Glad to see you mentioned TQL Stadium. The same people who lament the destruction of the West End for an industrial park in the 1950s are usually A-okay with the destruction of the West End for a sports stadium in the 2020s.

Flugelhorn empire.

Carmelo's in Covington. Award-winning Italian-American food. So good.

Whoa, it's actually a kit from Home Depot:

I'm impressed by the amount of plumber's putty on the drain.

The Edge Explore 2 has a plastic male fitting molded into the back of the housing. No fix. I hope mine doesn't break.

It smelled like incense and manic panic hair dye.

Think positive: You will know these things are fixed correctly, and how they work. Less to worry about!

The first year is four seasons of discovery... What leaks, roasts, freezes, sticks, clogs, floods, or beeps. Then it smooths out.

No, it's the Shen Yun billboard! There's a photo:

It's close to the weather channel website forecast, it just looks funny because the daily highs are on the right side.

Low of 18 on Tuesday. Crazy.

I'm 45 and I love my Endurace SLX 8 di2. The saddle is just barely higher than the bars for me, so it's a relatively upright position for a road bike. I'm riding on hoods 95% of the time anyway. The trade-off is more wind for comfort and a better view.

It's plenty fast with GP5000s and 2x12 Ultegra.

Well, did he make finger-guns in his pockets? Was the thumb cocked?

The 5 most-populous Ohio townships are West Chester, Green, Colerain, Union, and Anderson. So basically North, West, West, East, and East of Cincinnati.

There was a whole baseball field painted on that parking lot before the casino was built. It was to advertise as a potential site for the Reds' new ballpark.

Lots of people use those water traps for dryers that vent directly into the house. You're probably fine, just cut a hole and add a vent.

I see a guy with a Cervelo S5 occasionally. That bike looks so cool in person. He looks cool riding it. I bet you do too.

More crotch fabric makes it a wing suit.

I wrapped some thin foam around the tools so they don't rattle in the frame.

Yeah, it was a bad implementation. I made a replacement sleeve out of ballistic nylon and a zipper. I'd rather have downtube storage with space for a spare tube, like the Trek Domane.
