myself and my pittsburgh gf

Hi and welcome to my personal blog about life in Pittsburgh.  My name is Mike.  I live and work in the Pittsburgh area (though soon to be moving to Salt Lake City UT), but I was born and raised in Ohio.  I grew up in the Akron area and went to school in Youngstown, OH.  I am a Cleveland sports fan living in Pittsburgh since 2004.

I currently write a blog about making money online, which you can find here: www.PennyOnTheFloor.com.

This is my attempt at branching out and writing about my daily life and interactions within the city of Pittsburgh.  This is not meant to be a definitive guide to the city of Pittsburgh, but just a guide to my personal favorite places to visit, eat, drink, and play.

I hope that you enjoy reading my (sometimes drunken) ramblings and please leave comments (good or bad).  I’ve obviously not visited every bar or restaurant in the city (ok maybe I’ve been to all of the bars), so if you have feedback about a favorite spot that I should visit, please let me know in the comments or by hitting me up on my contact page.

UPDATE: I’ve recently enlisted the help of other local writers. If you live in Pittsburgh and want to help write article for the site, take a look at the contribution page where you can sign up to be an author.

UPDATE #2: As of mid-June of 2012, I’ve started a new chapter of my life and taken my adventures to Salt Lake City UT.  I had a great time in Pittsburgh over the last 7 and a half years.  If you’d like to help keep this blog going, please consider signing up and writing articles for the blog.  Thanks, Mike
