That could be fun, but costly (given gas prices). Perhaps we could rotate between Indy and Louisville (DJ is from Tennessee).

Going to Gary would be like taking your life into your hands. A smaller-scale version of Detroit without the charm.

How about conducting an ethical discussion? What business has the gov't (suddenly) sanctioning the smoking of marijuana, tobacco, or lawn clippings? Americans should be free to use or abuse all three.

Well, OK! But we were originally speaking about carcinogensesis. What you got there was my précis of the actual studies, with the results of which I can concur. If you wish to be free to use or abuse marijuana, tobacco, or grass clippings, by all means feel free to vote that way.

If a referendum were held today, hell, you might even be on the winning side. My predilection is Bushmills Single Malt, which is heavily taxed. Perhaps other DOCs should be too!

i was talkin bout the Gary ‘burbs ... but if C-fatigue is from Injunapolis ... maybe Paducah is a good central spot. There must be a bridge across the Ohigh at Paduke. I never made it there.

Cairo, Illinois for an afternoon in Jan ‘84. I chatted with old 4-eyes Paul Simon.

Cairo... probably about the saddest place in Illinois (well, after East Saint Louis, perhaps). What should be a premier Mississippi River town and tourism spot is a near-dead and empty model for racial disharmony. The White citizenry just closed down their businesses in the ‘60s and up and left, leaving behind a Black underclass and little incentive to restore what were scores of 19th century architecture (entire blocks of the town are overgrown grassy fields where once were thriving areas, lined with brick boulevards). I went there twice in the ‘90s (’92 and ‘93) and it was just heartbreaking. It’s a shame no one takes an interest in remaking it again.

You should have pushed Mr. Bow Tie into the hateful Mississip’.

Charles Dickens had nothing but bad things to say about Cario loooong before the 1960’s.
