I need to get in on this racket. With that in mind, I announce the inaugural Banks of Ohio Cruise: A Journey in a Minivan with me, your host, Andrew J. Whitman, M.B.A. Banks of Ohio is the ideal vacation getaway for CPAs, loan officers, tellers, or fiduciary professionals of all types. The three-day (August 17-19, 2007) cruise is highlighted by:
- Tour of Fifth Third National Bank Headquarters, Cincinnati, Ohio
- Panoramic roadside view of some of the taller King’s Island Amusement Park roller coasters, Mason, Ohio
- Overnight stay at the historic (1968) but contemporary Knights Inn in Westerville, Ohio, only 12 miles from the heart of downtown Columbus, Ohio.
- Tour of Huntington National Bank Headquarters, Columbus, Ohio
- A stop at the Bucyrus Bratwurst Fest, where over 27 tons of open-fire roasted bratwurst are consumed in a two-day period
- Scheduled restroom breaks
- Overnight stay at the Holiday Inn, Parma, Ohio, a mere 13 miles from the Rock ‘n Roll Hall of Fame
- Tour of National City Bank Headquarters, Cleveland, Ohio
- Tour of site where Cuyahoga River once caught on fire, with Randy Newman CD playing in the minivan

Can we, like, choose which songwriters we throw overboard and which ones we keep?
ReplyDeleteI bet Brandi goes first.
Would be a kinda folk version of AI, only with a little more final results.
The only thing I would hate about it, would be the choice between Lovette and Hiatt at the end....
Too bad Hiatt doesn't drink anymore. Would be fun listening and watching him hold down his end of the bar.
It's hard to imagine how some of these folksy angsty people will be able to muster real folksy angst on a luxury cruise, but it'd be fun to watch them try.
ReplyDeleteYeah, there's something bizarrely incongruous about this. It reminds me of the blues festival I attended in Breckinridge, Colorado, at the base of a ski slope. All the crossroads stores featured aroma therapy and acupuncture, and the tarpaper shacks were pastel-colored condos.
ReplyDeleteStill, I'd go if I could. Maybe the money from the Banks of Ohio tour can help finance the Carribean cruise.
There would be hardly anything more likely to cause angst than being stuck on a cruise ship with a LOT of folks who just wanna buy you a drink and get an autograph.
ReplyDeleteAndy, mebbe if you have The Banks of Ohio tour, Hiatt can play "Crossing Muddy Waters" over and over and over....
