Some folks just love to try and make proclamations, that ALL folks from one area are great...and vice versa.

It just gets old, so a little nose tweaking...seemed to be in order.

In actuality, while I found downtown Cincinnati fairly bland in its architecture...I did like the little square area when a group set up for a free concert at lunch.

What! Bland Architecture! You say! Have you seen Music Hall? Have you seen Union Terminal? Those old Germans who settled the city would actually part with some of their money to build some wonderful buildings. Cold, you gotta get out of the Red Roof Inn once in a while.

OK, actually, you are forgiven. I'm just messin' witya. But I must say that you can't have "mocking sarcasm" and "tweaking" in the same phrase. Your tweaker was off in that one. Nuance, Cold. Nuance. It's all about the nuance.
