Columbus, the new Seattle

[DaytonBuck]

I've only lived in two places my life Dayton and Columbus. It seems since Winter 04-05 that it rains like Seattle in the fall and winter here. Growing up in Dayton I can't remember raining at all or ever past October. There's nothing more ridiculous or depressing than dreary cold raining January day in Columbus.

At least it cleared enough to walk the dogs. And it beats the winter
of 77-78.

I'd rather have snow than rain. I'm sick of washing a muddy dog!

I would much rather have snow!!!! Not only am I missing out on a bunch of snowboarding this year but 38 and raining sucks really really bad.

I lived in Phoenix and the land of the happy where it was sunny every day for 2 years. I love the fuckin rain.

there is nothing depressing about any day in Columbus. Be happy you are there...

I love living in Columbus.. where else can you walk into any given establishment and have OSU stuff all over the place... for instance... the Kroger I shop at has a Donatos inside the store, passing by the premade pizzas for people to take home I noticed the pepperonis were in the shape of a Block O... little things like that make me so glad I live here.

I thought this was gonna be about a bunch of bands with downtuned guitars that wear flannel coming up in C-Bus.

 

[stxbuck]

No kidding-I wish there were local bands that are as good as Pearl Jam, Mudhoney and Alice in Chains. Not so much the Starbucks fetish, or heroin epidemic........

Really...I thought the thread was going to be about the band formerly known as The Dead Schembechlers going grunge or something...

Having been stationed (1967 - 68) at Fort Lewis, 60 miles south of Seattle and right on Puget Sound, I can tell you that we have had nothing like Seattle weather. I arrived 1 December, saw the sun for the first time for one hour at 17:15 hours on 24 December and did not see it again until 15 February... a week of sun... and then it did not appear in the sky until mid April. Suck it up and count yourself sunny side up.
