So, given that it's been quite awhile, I have a plethora of pinatas...I mean topics to choose from. I could talk about the pregnancy and how it is going well and how we'll find out the gender on November 3rd!!! Or, I could discuss all of the horrendous shootings in the news. Or, I could be depressing and discuss loss in general, since there has been plenty to go around lately. Instead, I'm going to talk about Ohio and Poop.

Several weeks ago, Andy and I were in the middle of our Saturday morning ritual, watching College GameDay, who happened to be covering Ohio State...at Texas. One can't help but scan the dozens of signs in the crowd. Well, I actually missed one in particular, but thanks to the DVR, Andy alerted me and we were able to rewind and verify... There, on national TV, from Austin, TX, on a white poster board with simply black lettering was the most articulate sign I've ever seen: OHIO = POOP

No, not Ohio State equals poop...just the state of Ohio in general. I must say, I'll never forget that sign and never fail to laugh each and every time Andy and I bring it up! Well, GameDay happened to cover OSU again this weekend and here were my two favorites:
1. "Troy Smith Loves Unicorns" (with a pretty rainbow behind the lettering) Really, is this supposed to be an insult? Who doesn't love unicorns.
2. "Go Hawkeyes, Beat Tressels Nuts" Bravo! Someone who knows and understands what a Buckeye is!!! Interestingly, I believe it was during the Texas coverage, one sign had something to do with eating said nuts...joke is still on the Horns b/c if you eat them, you will be poisoned (and since they are from OH, be eating some form of Poop as well:)!!!
