It’s just that Cincinnati is not where I would expect a shipment from South American to Hong Kong to pass through, is all. I mean, Cincinnati isn’t really next to a big body of water for ocean-bound shipments…

yeah, no, they go the other way around, eastward :joy:

I guess it could just be one or a few containers and it might have been cheaper cuz they had some room left or something like that

I imagine it will be a learning experience for the smugglers too :joy:

You should check out the Cincinnati River and the routes it takes.

I lived in Covington KY & drove over the Cincinnati River to work. Barges were often used to transport shipping containers and there are no customs checkpoints for barges. A lot of barges haul trash on top of something else. Sad as it is a lot of K-9 handlers won’t use their dogs on a trash barge. There might be a needle or other hazardous waste that could kill or injure the dog and or the handler.

Oh and the Cincinnati International Airport in not actually in Ohio. It is in KY. Confuses the heck out of people because they don’t explain that to passengers, nor is it printed on tickets. When you disembark the signs say Welcome to Cincinnati International Airport and not welcome to KY even though you ARE in KY. When I worked Security there, I saw some hilarious conversations as well as angry people who arrived for a convention in Cincinnati and were told they needed to pay for a taxi to actually get there. It was on the airlines for not telling them but the people in the airport had to put up with the anger.

Confused yet? In need of a further explanation of why I left there never to return? Well though you are groaning and saying “No, please, no more!!” I’m going to tell you a bit more.

Another reason I left there quicker than Ted Fled Cancun, I was the only :woman_curly_haired: in my Criminal Justice class of 32 people. The other 31 were active duty Law Enforcement in different fields ranging from Patrol to Homicide.

I was a mom, wife, chief cook and bottle washer as some say, a work study student, working 2 and often more full time jobs and raising 6 step-children and one son and taking a full credit course. My husband at the time claimed he had hurt his back and would do nothing except smoke cigarette, watch TV & get my sister :pregnant_woman:

With all that going on why was I the only one with a 4.0 all the way through the program. My minor was in Public Admin.

All 31 of the other Law Enforcement Personnel had to take extra classes in order to get a passing grade and obtain their degrees.

How can that be? I left home at age 10 and I never completed a grade of school after that. I had not worked even one shift in Law Enforcement.

Something is not right in these scenarios. It’s obvious to anyone that I can’t write well, I’m not good at communicating with people, I’m a self admitted hermit, and pretty useless to society as a whole because I can’t work anymore.

Note: I don’t see others who can’t work in this light at all, only myself. I’ve worked off the books since I was 10, on the books since I was 14 and I was always taught that it was my responsibility to provide for my family as well as not to take from others. I’ve not known one woman different from me, it is the way in the South for lots of woman. I’ve never known a man who worked and supported his family and I have 2 adult children. I have come to the conclusion that there is something wrong with me.

I’ve tried for years to figure out why any of this should make sense but I can’t. Nothing in the South makes sense. It didn’t then and it doesn’t now.

Lots of crazy stories in this Weekly Review. Some people I share this with think it is a Parody.

Unfortunately it is not.

The United States surpassed 500,000 COVID-19 deaths, and nearly every state experienced freezing temperatures. In Texas, the cold weather caused pipes to freeze and burst, and the increase in electricity usage overwhelmed the state’s power grid, leaving millions of Texans without power and potable water and driving a 27-year-old father to burn a baby gate for warmth. Senator Ted Cruz traveled to Cancún with his wife and daughters to meet his college roommate David Panton because, as Cruz later explained, he wanted to “be a good dad”; following widespread criticism, Cruz returned to Texas, apologized while wearing a state-flag face mask, and posted photographs of himself handing out bottled water to Texans. “I didn’t want all the screaming and yelling about this trip to distract even one moment from the real issues that I think Texans care about, which is keeping all of our families safe,” the senator said. During an interview on the invite-only app Clubhouse, an Instagram influencer—whom opposition leader Alexei Navalny alleges is a daughter of Vladimir Putin—said that she believes the Kremlin has the right to poison people because the Illuminati created COVID-19. Navalny’s appeal of his prison sentence was denied, and he was fined for slander.

A man at a quarantine hotel in Thailand was threatened with a defamation suit after he posted photographs of cockroach legs he had found in his macaroni. The Cambodian government, which in December jailed a woman for wearing a revealing outfit while livestreaming a clothing-and-makeup sale on Facebook, announced plans to implement a national internet gateway that, in addition to restricting access to certain websites, will require users to complete identification forms before going online. Facebook, which has been blocking pro-vaccine advertisements as part of its attempts to stop the spread of anti-vaccine content, prohibited the sharing of all news articles in Australia after the lower house of its Parliament passed legislation that would require the company to pay media companies for links to their coverage. Google fired a second prominent AI ethicist for “exfiltration of confidential business-sensitive documents and private data of other employees.” “It gives me the evil eye every time I leave home,” said Yevgenia Kvasova of the House of Soviets building in Kaliningrad, Russia, that has been scheduled for demolition because of structural defects. A drug-sniffing dog discovered 44 pounds of cornflakes coated with sugar and cocaine that were en route to Hong Kong.

The Miss India 2020 runner-up rode to a victory rally at her alma mater in her father’s auto rickshaw. The luxury fashion brand Proenza Schouler cast Kamala Harris’s stepdaughter in its runway show, held in the Hamptons, because she represents “a whole new chapter” in American life; Hermès reported a 43 percent increase in sales in Asia; and a shopping-mall baron predicted that housebound consumers will soon begin “revenge shopping.” San Francisco plastic surgeons reported an increasing demand for smaller breast sizes, and the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery released a statement warning those who have had their lips injected with filler to exercise caution with the COVID-19 vaccine because it can cause temporary lip swelling. “This [vaccine] is the hottest commodity that is out there right now,” said a health official in Orange County, Florida, where young women were caught attempting to receive shots while “dressed up as grannies,” and in Manatee County, Florida, a pop-up vaccination site with a “VIP list” was constructed for people living in its two richest zip codes. Mercedes-Benz recalled 1,292,258 cars in the United States because the eCall feature sent inaccurate vehicle locations to emergency responders. A butane tank exploded inside a Texas Walmart and forced shoppers to evacuate the store; customers were permitted to reenter one hour later.
