so, to start off, the name: ohio, land of corn.  this summer i joined a band, very aptly titled, the ground zero priase team, which is now called "a different kind of ordinary", and we embarked on a seven year journy/crusade ( jk, actually just five days) which ranged from kentucky, OHIO, indiana, and, you guessed it, Tennessee!  nashville to be precise.  so anyway, driving through kentucky, you never would have thought we left tennessee because they are both exactly the same.  UNTIL you get passed lexington.  then it becomes one massive horse farm in the middle of a desolate state.  sparatic houses here and there,  and a few subusistance farming colonies known as communities.  so my friend David Cowart ( the next Dave Matthews)  and i were in the back of the van wanting to shoot ourselves in the head when we finally crossed over into OHIO.  and we thought to ourselves, "alright! OHIO! maybe it will be different!"  well, we were wrong.  OHIO is actually one MASSIVE corn field.  actually, its not even a state at all, its a government conspiracy.  its actually just a plot of land which was owned by hitler during WW2 which he used to grow excessive amounts of corn in order to KILL any americans which tried to travel through ohio with boredom. (i think he succeeded with that one)  after the downfall of the 3rd reich, the government obtained the so called "state" and named it "ohio" which means in cherokee, "land of a thousand woes" which indubitably translates into "a lot of effin corn."  and that is the god honest truth. 

i just thought i would re-post this. for the nastalgia, you know. its been a long time since then, oh how i wish i could return to those days.

peace
