Political Haxorz: Ohio State Issue 2 [Senate Bill 5] »
Whether you’re an Ohio resident or not, it’s likely you’ve heard of Issue 2. Garnering mentions from the likes of President Barack Obama and presidential candidate Mitt Romney, Issue 2 has caused quite a stir. A ‘no’ vote would repeal Ohio Senate Bill 5 while a ‘yes’ vote keeps the legislation….
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

I wish I could tell you it gets better, but…it doesn’t get better. You get better.”

![Bob Feller statue in front of Progressive Field.
from Wikipedia:
Robert William Andrew “Bob” Feller (November 3, 1918 – December 15, 2010), nicknamed “The Heater from Van Meter,” “Bullet Bob,” and “Rapid Robert,” was an American Major League Baseball pitcher. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1962.
One of the best right-handed pitchers in baseball history, Feller was a prodigy who entered the major leagues when he was 17. Feller played for the Cleveland Indians from 1936 to 1956, his career interrupted by four years of military service during World War II. He became the first pitcher to win at least twenty games in a season before the age of 21, threw three no-hitters and twelve one-hitters (both records at the time of his retirement), led the American League in strikeouts in seven seasons, and pitched 279 complete games. Feller was renowned for his fastball, which was several times clocked at speeds in excess of 113 miles per hour.[1][2] Ted Williams called Feller “the fastest and best pitcher I ever saw during my career”, and Stan Musial believed he was “probably the greatest pitcher of our era.”[3]](http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lokzmoB3tF1qavv5fo1_500.jpg)

![Cleveland from Hope Memorial Bridge
from Wikipedia:
The Hope Memorial Bridge (formerly the Lorain-Carnegie Bridge) is a 5,865 foot (1,787 meter) long art deco truss bridge crossing the Cuyahoga River in Cleveland, Ohio. It stands 93 feet (28 meters) above the waterline in order to allow shipping to pass. The bridge connects Lorain Avenue on Cleveland’s west side and Carnegie Avenue on the east side, terminating just short of Progressive Field. Pairs of statues designed by sculptor Henry Hering and architect Frank Walker(titled the “Guardians of Traffic”) stand on pylons at each end of the viaduct, symbolizing progress in transportation. A second lower deck designed to carry truck and commercial traffic was never put into service.
A bond issue to pay for the bridge was passed in 1921, but construction was delayed for years due to squabbles over how the money would be spent. The bridge was completed in 1932 at a cost of $4.75M. It was renovated in the 1980s and renamed in honor of William Henry Hope, a local stonemason and father of Bob Hope. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on October 8, 1976, after a controversy in which county engineer Albert S. Porter threatened to remove the historic pylons to widen the span, stating, “Those columns are monstrosities and should be torn down and forgotten. There is nothing particularly historic about any one of them. We’re not running a May Show here.”[2]](http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loi30ubgjl1qavv5fo1_500.jpg)

“I saw an alternative view of Detroit: a model for self-reliance and growth.”
“They’d welcome help, but they’re not counting on it. Rather, to paraphrase George Bernard Shaw, they’re turning from seeing things as they are and asking, “Why?” to dreaming how they might be and wondering, “Why not?””
Good people, unfortunately due to circumstances beyond our control, the “clean” version of our new album, The Hot Sauce Committee pt 2 has leaked. So as a hostile and retaliatory measure with great hubris we are making the full explicit aka filthy dirty nasty version available for streaming on our site. We hope this brings much happiness, hugs, and harmony. Enjoy Kikoos for life!
Thank you,
