We want Indiana Jones fans!

By Eric Robinette | Sunday, April 27, 2008, 08:00 AM

Break out the leather jacket and the fedora and crack that whip - the most anticipated movie of the year, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, comes out May 22, and we’re looking for fans from Southwest Ohio.

Doctor Jones may not attract the kind of rabid followers Star Wars is famous for, but we know you’re out there - and we want to hear from you for a story we’ll publish next month before the new movie comes out. Tell us: What makes Indy endure as he has? Do you have any Indiana Jones gear? Do you feel overshadowed by fans of more fanciful fare like Star Wars or Harry Potter?

And here’s an added bonus - if any of you are good with a whip, let us know - we’ve got a whip we’d like you to try out. We have no snakes, we promise.

Contact Eric Robinette via email at erobinette@coxohio.com, or phone him at (513) 705-2836.

It’ll be fun - trust us.

And that's on top of other kraut-laden food like cabbage rolls, brownies, reuben sandwiches and pizza. Find out for yourself why a little dish called sauerkraut can bring some 300,000 to the village of Waynesville. The annual Ohio Sauerkraut Festival is today and Sunday. More »

The Melting Pot in Washington Twp. [review]

The Melting Pot, Washington Township, Ohio

Whether you're looking for a new spot for a date, a night out with the girls or whatever, The Melting Pot offers delicious fondue fun for everyone at its first area location in Washington Twp. The Melting Pot's fondue dining concept is certainly distinctive. Here, the diners are the chefs. For chocolate enthusiasts — and my sense is, there are many of you — dessert here is a gooey slice of heaven. More »
