MayDay

Alright, the bridge lift schedule discussion is informative, so the posts can stay, but let's get back on topic. Photo update of the site from 2/19/11:

Done.

Thank you for posting these - like Robert mentioned, I've been familiar with the exteriors of City Hall and Buffalo Savings Bank, but it's a real treat to see the equally gorgeous interiors.

Back on topic, please.

"Oh, and for the men on this board (which there are many), what kind of smell do you like on a woman? Soap, perfume, etc..." Honestly, most straight guys don't care *that much* provided we're not talking 1. bathing in fermented floral-infused formaldehyde (aka grandma fragrance), or 2. going au natural for three weeks (aka no, raw pheromones aren't *always* appealing). As AJ93 said - if *really smelling like something appealing to guys* was socially acceptable, women would douse themselves in "Eau De Greasy Pizza", "Bouquet de Bacon", "Eau de Beer", etc. Sure, there might be some who prefer one to another, but once they start preferring too much, they're muscling in on my turf and we just can't have that. ;-)

Colozza's - 5880 Ridge Road

"He acts like a big vagina when it comes to sports." I'm sure there are comments you could make about this person *without* being misogynistic.

Arcade: 1901 http://www.shorpy.com/node/7402?size=_original I love how that shot shows the original Superior Avenue side staircase. "Flats: 1910 http://www.shorpy.com/node/9229?size=_original" This one threw me off a little - I *think* that jackknife bridge was replaced by the Center Street swing bridge. Lots of great vintage shots - thanks for posting!

Fixed that for you. Plenty of us realize that both Cleveland and Columbus have made a lot of strides in the past two and a half decades - well, apparently, not *all* but you get the point.

"Clear and cold, ~25°" God bless all of ya - not my cup of tea, but glad to see things are still going through our less-than-pleasant months :-)

Emmie, I apologize for the argumentative tone this thread has taken on. Unfortunately, I believe this thread has unfortunately devolved into another "dumbass thread that should serve as a reminder that participation on this forum is a privilege, not a right". Moonlight and David - take it to PM.

Some fixes needed on the captions, but the photos are very nice - thanks for posting :-)

Let's treat my chefs with respect unless you want to meet the business end of a rolling pin.

Placemark 1 is spoken for - they're building a parking garage for Calfee Halter there.

This is something along the lines of "I'm relocating, where should I live?"... give us an idea of your budget (how much is 'just right' including tip) and your style (i.e. "safe and simple", "funky/trendy", etc.).

"... the exalted, revered, and feared MayDay." Ohhh, stop! ;-)

My partner picked this up at one of the recent sales at the library:

^I'm impressed with the speed of the parking garage demolition; just curious how long it will take for the Sportsman and 113 St. Clair building.

Still a beautiful place in the frigid cold - thanks for sharing.

Ugh... that Cincy chili is just not my cup of tea. I'll stick with my no-bean chili... no beans, but the following meats: Chorizo Ground sirloin Cubed pork Beef brisket Beef bacon Pork bacon And the following veggies: Celery Cilantro Shallots (carmelized) Scallions Anaheim peppers Jalapeño peppers Fresno peppers Banana peppers Onions (carmelized) And then there's the rest: Bolivian sea salt Grated fresh garlic Granulated roasted garlic Ancho chile powder Chili powder Ground coriander Cumin (out the wazoo) Unsweetened chocolate And for good measure, a bottle or two of cerveza - not just *with* the chili but IN the chili. And of course - cornbread to sop it all up with :-)

I'm beginning to think this thread should be renamed "Another dumb-ass thread which should just be locked as a reminder that participation on this forum is a privilege, not a right".

I'm guessing the Ravenna Arsenal (Ordinance Arsenal or something like that).

Until we see a set of hoops being constructed, let's stop fixating on castles in the sky.
