There is also a link to my local paper on the side bar.
So now that I have offered you the basic information, future entries will be on a much more personal view of life in everyday Springfield. And please share with me what your hometown is like. Tell me where you live, what hours you work, when you may be going on vacation, and whether or not you have a security system installed. Little things like that, that will bring us closer together.
Enjoy The Excitement of Springfield, Ohio !!

Ah yes... Springfield! Which exit off of I-675 (or is it I-70?) should one take to get to your house?
The average number of teeth is suprisingly high. You must have a pretty small meth problem in that part of Ohio. ;)
Here's my city!
Granola consumption per capita hovers around 12 pounds per year, superceded only by gorp and the ratio of women with hairy armpits.
Some Meth, but our proud citizens prefer Crack...No one hear can eat Granola due to them missing half of their teeth. As far as the exit off I-70, it has no number it simply says "Exit Now To Ride The Love Boat"...
