ohio: land of large people

hated it growing up. now i hate it most of the time. but it's home. and i love home.

gots pics from our week in the land of large people. man, they make them bigger in the midwest. the mall is the best place for bovine watching. it's hitting skyline and penn station that does it. if i lived there i'd be a lardass, too. 1:00 AM chili dogs will do that to you.

way long ago i was flying to iowa, a state also known for the plumpness of its residents. i had earlier joked that i would know my gate at the airport by looking for the largest people. as i walked up to the gate i noticed nary a large, plump, or juicy soul in sight. oh well, so much for that theory, i thought to myself.

as i sat down, the gate attendent announced that the flight to des moines (pronouncing the first "s") had been moved to gate D32. shit, i gotta book! as i get to D32, i see a generously proportioned lady sitting on the floor (it looked like she would not fit in a seat) scarfing down a large philly cheesesteak sandwhich.

it was 10:45 AM.

ah, this was definitely the gate to iowa.

ok, here are pics from the nati. click here.

some good ones:

apparently, they named a state park after what shoobie's mom does behind waffle house


this will never cease to be funny
