Hello, Friday! Chelsea here.

I think we've all had to embrace technology a little bit more than usual over the past couple of months. With an influx of Zoom meetings, we're all getting used to working from home and we can all relate to a mishap here or there. During the Columbus City Schools Board of Education meeting earlier this week, a committee member learned the hard way that the mute button is there for a reason.

I love a good board game, and if I'm being honest, I didn't even end up caring that this was just a huge advertising scheme. Anybody else remember Columbusopoly?

Some major cancellations today, including the Ohio State Fair and Jazz & Ribs Fest.

Talking Points ❤️

Learning 🐧

The Return Of Day Trips ❤️

Everyone's comfort level will be different, but most will probably agree that outdoor experiences are relatively acceptable and safe for now. That opens up the opportunity for minor day trips, like the one Columbus Alive takes here to the Temple of Tolerance in Wapakoneta. To go alone with the article, here's a very interesting tour of the Temple from Atlas Obscura -

An All-Time State Fair Moment 🥊

We're heavy on video today, but with the cancellation of the State Fair this year, I had to include this Ohio State Fair moment from 1983 - a 17-year-old Mike Tyson boxing in the National Championship Semi-Finals. The knockout happens at 6:25 if you're only here for that.
