PostSpeaking of Cincinnati, Fifth Third Bank is a Cincinnati-based bank known for having the dumbest name and also its own "hamburger", the famous 5/3 Burger. It was launched in 2009 for our local Single A baseball team that plays in 5/3 Ball Park (in Grand Rapids MI). It has five 1/3 lb patties (5/3 lb, get it?), five slices of cheese, a cup of chili, Fritos, salsa, sour cream, lettuce and tomatoes on a one-pound bun for just $29. You got a T-shirt if your ate the whole thing. "Nutritional" Data: 4…

PostQuote from max.patch: “Last night the Mets were at the Reds. NY Met announcer Gary Cohen gave a review of Cincinnati Skyline Chili. While Cincinnati chili is a still menu item at various local restaurants, 15-20 years ago a franchise Cincinnati Chil Restaurant opened in a suburb of Atlanta. It was probably Skyline, but I can't remember for sure. I had what is shown in the video. I went once. It didn't last long before it folded.

welcome to the cafe
PostToday I mailed on one of my old pairs of Darn Tough socks for a warranty replacement. The soles had won very thin and they have 4 small holes. The form you fill out ask how old they were. I don't think it matters what you answer but it was a required field and I had no idea how long I had them. I put 3 years.

PostFor those of us from MI? Maybe. But then I've seen questions that seem obvious to me when three contestants from other parts of the country have no clue. My wife (with two degrees from UofM) asked "Why would they do that?" I say "Duh, They are OSU a$$holes!"

North Country Trail
PostThis video has been all over the news. A boater caught a cliff drop at Pictured Rocks NL. The top of the cliff is where the North Country Trail follows the edge. I attached my picture of the trail through that section when I backpacked it 6 years ago. You have the option of hiking on the left side of the larger trees. Of course I walked right on the edge. youtu.be/7IPpEMLXAygappalachiantrailcafe.net/index.php/Attachment/13972/

PostQuote from rhjanes: “Where did Dallas rank? We also have a WNBA team. And the Frisco's Rough Riders. ” So what constitutes "major league sports"? I have updated the calculations to include both the WNBA and MLS. If there is another league pretending to be a major league (I'm talking to you CFL) I'm not interested. I also lumped all the Tennessee and Carolina teams together. Here is the complete list. * City * Suckiness * Detroit * 16.2% * Cincinnati * 19.0% * Miami * 24.4% * Montreal * 31.1% * P…

PostQuote from IMScotty: “If you have tried to book a place to stay, rent-a-car, or flight this summer you know that the vacation starved masses are letting loose and you had better have made your reservations early.

PostI did some recreational statistics the other day. The Q: Are the Detroit sports teams as bad as we think they are? So I took the final standings for MLB, NFL, NBA, and NHL from the last complete (i.e. pre-Covid) season and ranked them from high to low winning % (points for NHL). Team were given a score from 0 to 100 equal to the % of the other teams whose record was worse. I then averaged the score for all teams from each metropolitan area having more than one team (e.g. SF, Oakland, and San Jos…

Naughty or Nice?
PostI would like to know why it's so hard to grow grass in the lawn but so easy to grow it in the cracks in the driveway.

Nice. Reminds me of the time I was on Sinking Creek Mtn on the AT in VA. It was early evening, the ridge was narrow and rocky, and I was out of gas. It was several miles to the next shelter and I suspected that once I dropped off the ridge there would be no camping spots until I got to the shelter. There was a tiny clearing the size of my tent footprint among the rocks just off the trail. I didn't think camping that close to the trail was appropriate but I didn't have any other good options so I…
