Kissing Bug

(Part two of a sequential tour narrative. Go to April, 25 2009 to start at the beginning).

Did you know that Chuck D died from kissing bug related illnesses? It may be quite true. Oh, and by Chuck D I mean Charles Darwin, the original Chuck D.

Kissing bugs have been known to plague inhabitants of southeastern California.

Do you know what happens when the gnome returns home?

Do you know where Engagement, Ohio is?

Tell me what Austin has that Columbus doesn't. (Don't answer that, actually).

Bucyrus, Ohio has an annual bratwurst festival.

Circleville, Ohio has an annual pumpkin festival. So what? More interestingly, the town of Circleville was originally laid out in concentric circles and was a major stop on the Erie Canal system. Now it has neither characteristic.

Dick's Den is the same as it was and Carabar is fun. Shrimp tacos are good and cougars are fun. Hot sauce and hot dogs/sausage go hand in hand.

The Horseshoe Bar in Bucyrus sucks pretty bad. I have never wanted to hear "Black Hole Sun" that loud.
