Is It Halloween Yet ?
It's September so it's time for Oktoberfest. I know somebody has an explanation for this but I don't care - it's weird - I live with it.
So I was thinking I should put an Oktoberfesty sidebar girl picture up. While the Sidebar Girl submissions have been pouring in from all over the world, I just wasn't finding the right thing and then I stumbled across what may be one of the most important blogs in the whole world.Oktoberfest Girls. The pics are mainly from Munich's Oktoberfest. Now, I know what you're thinking - what's better than girls & beer & potato pancakes & sauerkraut balls & sausage ? I'll tell you my friend - girls & beer & potato pancakes & sauerkraut balls & sausage AND COMIC BOOKS!
Here in Cincinnati, unlike Munich, we don't fuck around. Our Oktoberfest is held in conjunction with the Cincinnati Comic Expo! So how american is that? Well how about a baseball game on top of that?
The mind staggers.

UPDATE: oh yeah, and the Cincinnati Roller Girls will be at the Cincinnati Comic Book Expo!

Oktoberfest Zinzinnati

So I was thinking about going down to the Cincinnati ~er~ Zinzinnati Oktoberfest this weekend and started thinking about lines, lines, beer tickets, portapotties, potato pancakes, lines, sauerkraut balls, lines, beer, lines, lines and more lines.....
Q, the chick in the picture WILL be there !
pfah, I am old. She would probably call me sir, anyway. I think I might just stay home & have my own Oktoberfest.....
I have Newkirks recipe for sauerkraut balls. It makes about 10 friggin' pounds, so I would have to pare it down. hm Math+beer+deep frying......
oh well, if you wanna go and meet all those nice people standing in lines, it's Saturday, 11 a.m. - midnight & Sunday, 11 a.m. - 10 p.m. downtown on Fifth Street from Race Street to Broadway.
