The Addys!

"The Cincinnati AdClub's annual ADDY awards will be held on February 18, 2012. It is time for all of you to fire up those precious Macbooks and submit your best work from 2011. Unless, you somehow managed to go an entire year without doing a single interesting campaign... In which case, find a new town. This is Cincinnati! We are loud and proud about our Ad work, and there is no room for slackers or whiners."

BENGALS QUARTERBACK ANDY DALTON CREATES LONGER LINE THAN ELECTION
Is that bad? I think Dalton is one guy we can all agree on supporting this November. Though... it is a little sad that so many people are in line for his autograph when lines like that should be at every polling place in Greater Cincinnati/NKY.

THERE ARE NO ALIENS IN AMERICA, GOT IT?
The White House finally came out and said it. (But do we believe them?)

In response to a public petition, the White House said it has "no evidence" of alien life, or that extraterrestrials have "contacted or engaged" any member of the human race. Furthermore, there is no "credible information" that indicates that any proof of aliens has been covered up by the U.S. government or anyone else."The fact is we have no credible evidence of extraterrestrial presence here on Earth," wrote Phil Larson, who handles space policy and communications for the White House.

Satisfied? LOL.
