Where's Ohio???

Yes folks, I have once more changed the name of my blog for reasons which give me a headache, but at the same time give me more material here. I was out of town this weekend and just rolled in a few hours ago. I was in Nashville visiting some friends of mine, and last night at their house, they threw a St. Patty's Day/Birthday Party(which I had no idea it was my friend's wife's B-day-she wanted to keep it quiet). As all of these new faces were rolling into the house to begin the festivities, one of the couples that were invited were Pat's next door neighbors. They were a younger couple who are doing fairly well for themselve at a very young age(eg. they are getting married next month on a private island in Tahiti. But are first stopping in Vegas to get married to make it legal. So basically the cermony in Bora Bora is only for the pictures I suppose.) They are a good looking couple by many standards (his heritage is Mexican and she's Puerto Rican-ohhh lala) and very friendly and approachable in conversation. As we conversed, it became very clear to me that the girl was friendly, but not so sharp(it's amazing how a person's good looks can affect your attention span vs. an ugly person).
I digress, I was telling her where I was from, as far as the city goes being Cincinnati. Now they just moved to Nashville from Chicago, fairly close to here geographically speaking. "Where's Cincinnati?" Now I already had a smile on my face so I just let it stay without giving my 'are you a, f'ing moron?' look. I told her what state it was in and how long it took to get to Nashville.
"About 4-4 1/2 hours" I say.
"Really?! Isn't Cin. way up north?"
Still smiling "No, we are right on the Ohio River, it's not too far."
"Oh, so Ohio's west of Illinois?"
"No, we're actually EAST of INDIANA." I was actually friendly through this whole conversation, not demeaning to her evident lack of the Geography bug.
Now I would have been a little more understanding if I'd been from an obscure town like Littleton, Arkansas, but Cincinnati is a fairly well know town. I mean the NFL last season pretty much put them on the map as far as having the most felons.
Please, everyone, buy a globe, it can be a normal one without the bumps and ridges, those are really hard to read cities. Just buy a round smooth one with all of the countries and states in different colors. For all of humanity.
