Hunting pigs

Okay okay, I promised I would write more. I just didn’t have time if you believe.

I wrote before about things that may surprise, now about something funny.

Cincinnati used to be known as Porkopolis (see here and here). A couple years ago, many of Cincity companies had some fun and put lots of statues of flying pigs all around the town. Prior to my visit there I found this story somewhere on the net. So… first time I go there I go hunting. Sadly I come back empty-handed. I even asked some people and they didn’t seem to have any idea where I could find at leas one of those statues.

So I come back and go google the damn thing again. Turns out I’m blind. I kinda walked on one and didn’t notice. I also asked around some more. Turned out that there ain’t much left. Just a couple. Next week I went again and fund the one I was looking for.

There is another one, further along this path, at the Boat House restaurant. But I don’t have a photo.

Yesterday I found another one. This time at the CVG airport

And now, since I woke on Saturday up 7 am (GMT+5) and didn’t sleep much until now (9 pm GMT+1) it’s time for me to finally go and hit the sheets!

Have a good night!
