		back off, big man.  that may work for the chicks,

some of us cannot help where we were born and raised.  as a
matter of fact, some of us even relish seeing certain teams
trounced by the mighty buckeyes.

	i, for one, do not even care about football.  the only
comfort is that eastern is in the mac.  it gives plenty of
chances to visit and enjoy the beautiful state of ohio, and its
wonderfully diverse cities.

	thankfully, a few of us have been *enlightened,* and realize that
some of the finest music comes from fine state of ohio. i am especially
fond of the music that comes out of cincinnatti.  the blue birds,
graveblankets, otr, and the psychodots are worthy of so much more success 
than most of the top 40 artists.  *finely crafted pop songs,* should not
mean the kiss of death.

	i agree with chris on this one.  let's face it, many *underground*
bands have become part of the mainstream.  that does not mean the quality
of the music has dropped.  enjoy what you can, for there is much hear in
the kingdom of earthly delights.

	whew, i think that this was more than my two cents worth.  we
apologize for any inconveniences.  back to our regularly scheduled lurking

	... before i go, thank you chris, for the taunt.

	ciao--vc
