"So much to discover." is an unofficial state motto for Ohio. The motto should be followed up with "The suck is endless". In fact they might just officially change it to "Wow, you actually came here?" 
By the way, their official motto now is "With God all things are possible", which is not only illegal because there's no seperation of church and state. (Quick sidenote: I don't mind the "in God" thing because it's just apart of it... but when you actually quote the bible as your state slogan... too far) Secondly, it doesn't even make any sense for the state at all.
Pennsylvania's is "Virtue, Liberty, and Independence". It's actually one of the smart thing's that PA has done. It tells you exactly what PA believes it stands for. Nevada's is "All For Our Country"... another good patriotic motto. But Ohio's doesn't make any sense at all, unless it's implying that even God himself has the ability to make this state not suck bad? That's the only thing I can infere from that statement.
I spent the last week in Cincinnati. As far as I can tell the city has one really good thing about it... Rydia. The rest was pretty weak. I've been to quite a few cities. I'm a fan of smaller cities. Cincinnati definitely qualifies. Unfortunately, Cincinnati has a LOT of flaws. Obviously it has the normal problems with the city: high prices, busy weekday streets, dead weekends, homeless, and con artists. However, Cinci's largest flaw is that the people there are very protective of their crappy city.
I've never seen such a scrapper city. New York is extremely big and probably the rudest city on the face of the earth... but they're rude because they're all unhappy degenerate bastards. They're like a big steroid-engrossed football player with a 2" dick who beats his girlfriend after his bi-hourly workout. Cinci locals make it personal. They're more like the scrapper in a bar who doesn't like you just because you're not 5' like him.
My friends and I got kicked out of two bars before I even bought a drink. I was completely sober and 100% fine. The one was an alcohol store. He had a bad selection and told us that we couldn't buy Jack Daniels or Jagermeister in the state of Ohio. We ended up finding a store a few days later about a block away that had the drinks in the store window, ready for sale. One bar told me I couldn't even stand in their bar because I was from Pennsylvania. Even though I was over 21, I wasn't allowed in the bar because I was from another state. Friends of ours went their later the next night, different bartender, different rules. They even asked about it and the female bartender that night complained about the bartender the night before pulling that bullshit a lot. At another bar I went to, I left a really good tip, my friend bought the bartender a shot and a drink, talked to the guy all night... and when we paid our bill he complained that our collective $10 tip wasn't enough for the $50 worth of drinks we bought. That's a 20% tip. Only one place, not just bar but anyplace, thanked us for our business. Just one.
I would definitely not recommend living in Cinci. It wasn't a horribly bad city. You could easily walk the streets at night and not get mugged... but there was just nothing good about it. The only natural thing I liked was directly outside the city where there were a lot of trees. Even there though there was a lot of smog from random factories in the area. I could barely breathe. The state still beats California and Florida... but that's not hard to do. Right now, definitely 3rd worst in the country, as far as I'm concerned.
