While Tony Perez Isn't Around, Pete Rose and Joe Morgan Talk about What a Man Should Smell Like

Pete_and_joe_and_tony_2

A strange opening day in Cincinnati.

Here in Price Hill, Pete Rose, Tony Perez and Joe Morgan were having their own opening day. You talk about living in the past.

Pete and Joe sent Tony out to the store to get some beer. While he was gone, the conversation turned to what men should smell like. The video is down below.

As far as I’m concerned, they were sweating so badly, they smelled like B.O., but I have a sensitive nose.

Reporting from Price Hill, This is . . .

Mr. Red is Hot, Good in Bed and Knows How to Get Down

Mr_red

I'm so glad baseball is back in Cincinnati. No, not because of The Reds, but because of Mr. Red.

When he's with the team, he's all business – shaking hands, being silly and having his picture taken with fans, but when he's off duty, its business of another kind.

Once I got beyond that baseball head of his, I realized how hot he really is – and in bed? He scores a home run every time!

He’s a party animal too. Check out the little clip down below.

Stay away from him, Teri Archer – he’s mine!!

Testing Your Knowledge on Your Hometown

Horse_in_cinti

In our second in a series of testing your knowledge about Cincinnati, here's today's question:

The nickname for Cincinnati, Porkopolis, was coined around 1835. Why was the city called this?

Was it because. . .

Everybody in the city was eating at Skyline Chili all the time and getting extremely fat?

Is the answer . . .

CityBeat started publication in 1835 and thought it would be a good name for a column?

Or is it because . . .

Cincinnati was the country’s chief hog packing center?

The first person to answer this question correctly, get two never used plastic cups from my stay at a Travelodge in St. Louis! The protective wrapping is still around the cups!

Good luck and let the fun begin!

That Was The Week That Was - In Blogs

Nipple_3

If you wear nipple piercings, you are a terrorist. When boarding airplanes, it's better to be safe than sorry.

Last week, a woman wearing these deadly things was stopped by airport security. Wonkette fills us in. Security made her remove the piercings before she could board the plane. Apparently the second one had to be removed with a pair of pliers.

As far as I’m concerned, whatever it takes. Do you know how small they make guns these days? That’s exactly what they could have been! Little, tiny guns! She could have taken the whole damn plane down and even worse, blown up her tits in the process! Thank god airport security was on top of this.

I don’t know if Diane Keaton wears nipple piercings but I do know she hates people. Jazebel fills us in.

At the A & E Blog last week, Rick Pender did an interesting interview with playwright Melanie Marnich. Her play, “A Sleeping Country,” is now playing at the Playhouse in the Park. Melanie seems like a nice woman, true to her country and all that. I’m sure she doesn’t have weapons of mass destruction pierced on her anywhere.

Why does the Obama people want Hillary ousted? The Cincinnati Nation gives us some details. Is it because she has nipple piercings? Doubtful. This race is just too much fun to watch. Take it to the convention. Seriously.   

Let us now go to San Diego where former City Council Member John Hartley got arrested last week. Seems like Mr. Hartley was peeing in a cup in public. To make matters a bit worse, he was also masturbating in that cup. The San Diego Union-Tribune gives us more details.

Mr. Hartley is trying to regain his seat on council and is running in the current erection election. It’s unlikely he’ll win now but the good news here is he had no nipple piercings and is not considered a terrorist.

“The View’s” co-host, Elizabeth Hasselbeck, equates Obama’s preacher man, Jeremiah Wright, with Jeffrey Dahmer. Watch the clip on Crooks and Liars. Elizabeth Hasselbeck: No nipple piercings, not a terrorist – just dumb.

The Daily Bellwether had an interesting post up last week about the old song “Take me out to the Ballgame.” It was written for Katie Casey like a hundred years ago, because Katie loved baseball. Yes, it was a simpler time back then. . . no terrorists. . . no nipple piercings.

Last Wednesday on the LOL Blog, I wrote a post called What I Miss and the Cincinnati Blog went ape shit. Man, it’s about time! You guys haven’t ripped me a new one in ages! Just to keep the “hate” going, yes – I believe everything I wrote. In a related issue, yes – I’m staying in Newport, Kentucky, but in news that will send joy to your pierced nipples, I’ll be moving back to Cincinnati at the end of this week. You will have Larry Gross to kick around some more!

Before I move back, however, I have to go out of town for a day. I’ll be getting on an airplane tomorrow and while I don’t have nipple piercings, I must remember to remove my cock ring before hitting airport security.

Opening Day

Malloryonthemound

Opening day is almost here. Is it possible that it's been nearly a year since last year's opening pitch?

Let's relive that memory today. Mayor Mark Mallory went on the "Jimmy Kimmel Show" a few days after that famous pitch to try and explain what went wrong. The video is down below.

Eggs

We go to Jezebel.

Do you like eggs? Can you eat them all day long or are they only for breakfast? Do you eat them despite the fact they're not really that good for you?

Do you think eggs are the best thing anyone ever pulled out of an ass? If so, click here.

Xavier

No, guess it's just not my style. Click on over to The Cincinnati Nation to find out about Xavier's big win last night.

That web site has another post up that I find interesting. Where are all the "happy blogs?" How come all you local bloggers out there aren’t cheering Xavier on?

Sex Advice from Sister Ruth Flanders

Nun_2

Dear Sister Flanders,

My sex life has become routine to the point of being boring. My husband never wants to try anything new.

I keep reminding him I have more than one hole, if you know what I mean. I wouldn’t mind a little anal sex at all. In fact, in all our years of marriage, he has never entered me through the rear.

When I bring up the fact that I want anal sex, he looks at me like I’m dirty. I reply that a woman has her needs.

Tell me the truth, Sister Flanders; I’m I a sick person for wanting this kind of sex?

Sincerely,
Polly Johnson,
Hyde Park


My Dear Polly,

Having anal sex sounds a little painful to me, but then again, all sex sounds painful. You must understand that I have never had any kind of sex in my life.

I would suggest reading the Bible more and if that doesn’t help, perhaps drinking will.

High Personal Regards,

- Sister Ruth Flanders

Major Changes Coming to LOL Blog

Cat_photo

In an effort to become more mainstream and win "Best Of" awards and to increase our stats, starting Monday, this blog will be all positive.

There will be no more Larry Gross rants like the one from yesterday. In fact, starting Monday, the LOL Blog will consist of only cute cat pictures like the one to the left.

If you think the one to the left is too over the top, let us know and we’ll tame it down for our big “cat” debut on Monday.

Reporting from down on the farm, this is. . .

Once Again, You Have Made LOL Girl Cry. Happy?

Woman_crying

Well, the "Best Of" issue is out and yes I know you're probably thinking that this blog is considered the best blog in Cincinnati by CityBeat readers.

Wrong.

Once again, you have made LOL Girl cry. Happy? She gives and gives and all you people do is take and give nothing back.

Here are the top 5 blogs that you voted for:

1) Buy Cincy

2) BuildingCincinnati

3) Lance McAlister Blog

4) Cincinnati Blog

5) Urban Cincinnati

If we had any class here, we would link to these blogs, but we have no class and we’re bitter and upset. Look them up yourself.

LOL Girl didn’t even shave her legs today. Cincinnati, look what you’ve done to her.
