Glad That’s Over
Wow, there are stressful weeks and there are stressful weeks. This week was to be a hair graying week for sure. With two sites due by Wednesday noon and a full site design comp I had a ton of work to get done in two and half days. On top of that I found out my motorcycle had a flat back tire. It was a brand new tire (3-4 months old) so I must have ridden over something nasty, good thing it was a slow leak. Now having a flat in a car is fairly simple, put the spare on and drive to a shop and get a new one. Not so with a motorcycle. Since it’s my only transportation it brought up some unique issues with such a dilemma. One, no way to get it to the shop and in my case, no tools in which to change it. Luckily I had driven Vince’s girlfriend and kids to the airport on Monday morning so he let me borrow his ride to solve my issue. So I went up to cycle gear and purchased all I’d need to change it. A bike rack (raises the back wheel off the ground),... Continue Reading

Avatar Was Amazing
All I have to say is wow, this movie was amazing. I had a chance to see it in 3d at Muvico down the street and wow. Stunning visual effects and a pretty good story line, though the previews do give away quite a bit if you pay attention. It’s definitely a must see movie. I’m not sure about the “future of movies” comment everyone seems to be making. It’s an evolution of how movies are made but it’s still a movie never the less. The overall production cost of Avatar was 300 million and it made over 274 million... Continue Reading

Hit Girl Is A Badass
Just saw this on WWTDD and had to repost it. Warning… some dirty language, haha. There’s just something funny about a 12 year old hit woman. Ah, take a look you’ll see what I mean.... Permalink

The Birthday Weekend
It actually turned out pretty cool. Friday night before I got to hang out with Vinny, Annette, George and Frank over at Vinny’s place. The rest of the evening was a bit of a bummer but that’s how it goes. Saturday night was a lot of fun. We hit Roxy’s new rooftop bar on our way to Lost Weekends. The rooftop bar was very cool; actually made you feel like you in the city. I ended up running into a couple stunners who recognized me from Halloween as the SWAT guy. I guess I made an impression because they weren’t... Continue Reading

December Morning Sunrise
For the past few days I’ve been getting up around 5am for some reason. Well, I know the reason, I’m busy as hell and I’ve got to find the time somewhere to get the work done. So this morning I thought I’d take advantage of my early-bird-ness (is that a word?) and take a quick ride out to the beach to catch the sunrise. It was a nice little 30 minute break just watching the day wake up. This shot was actually taken with my iPhone. Not bad eh?... Permalink

Decent Weekend
The weekend was a pretty good compared to how they have been going. I got a chance to hang out with Vinny for a change. Football, pizza, sushi, beer and tequila… just how it should be. No drama, no issues. Just a nice little weekend. Sunday was a good morning for a ride so Jamie and I headed out west once again to the Shell station on B-Line highway. This morning was torrential downpours but it looks as though the rain has cleared up. Not sure if there’s any more in the forecast but currently the weather is beautiful. 79... Continue Reading

A Mass to celebrate the life of Joseph M. Politzer, age 32, will be 2 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 3, 2009, in the chapel at St. Gabriel Church, 9925 Johnnycake Ridge Road, Concord Township. On Nov. 22, 2009, while on an extended trip through Southeast Asia, Mr. Politzer lost his life in a tragic motorbike accident. From a young age, Joe wanted to travel and see the world. After attending the University of Cincinnati, he realized that a traditional career would not satisfy his passion for travel and adventure. Joe worked in the service industry, at Ruby’s in Cincinnati and at... Continue Reading
