  4. Interesting, I've been to Detroit countless times but haven't ever bothered looking at dearborn

    I go to Aldis and use my old cardboard box bottoms and paper bags. I am such a penny pincher.
  6. Actual news today! http://www.thenews-messenger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080808/NEWS01/808080302/1002 Also, more interesting news today. http://www.thenews-messenger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080808/NEWS01/808080303/1002 More chains, but at least this one is good and isn't on route 53 by the turnpike. http://www.thenews-messenger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080808/NEWS01/808080304/1002 Extension of the bike trail, I think the long term plan is to connect this and run it from Cleveland, through Toledo to the far western parts of the state. I know there's already an existing trail around Norwalk and Lorain and Cleveland. http://www.thenews-messenger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080808/NEWS01/808080301/1002 50 more jobs for the city. http://www.thenews-messenger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080808/NEWS01/808080318/1002 Anything that educates people about alternative energy is good news.
  7. These were amazing, and thanks for doing it in 6 parts (for some reason if there's too many pics in one post, anything posted after a certain number won't work)
  8. Ah, those are pretty neat.
  9. What is the Cleveland 'duckbil?'
  10. http://www.toledoblade.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080702/NEWS17/807020427 I have heard this will put a pretty big strain on Heinz and the Fremont Sauerkraut company (both big users of the sewage system). I really hope something can be worked out, because if Heinz is gone then the town really has no hope considering it's size.
  11. That BG theater is cheaper than any other places matinee when they run their normal price alone ($4.25). It's more precious than almost all the bars and clubs there.

    Way wrong, the internet has opened up people to music they never ever could have heard before. There are tons of local music scenes popping all over the world thanks to the ease of band networking on the internet, and getting music is easier and faster than ever. Hell, there's no way I or many others would ever have heard Mort Garson or Devin Townsend without it. I'd say now it's easier for bad music to get to number 1 because taste in music is so much more diverse now and internet based, not old school records based (although a ton still buy itunes for popular songs). Who cares about hit lists when so many more bands can survive nowadays anyways. I think music is a more important part of people's lives than it has been in the past.

    Go ahead and blame the record labels, my friend and I have been compiling a list of bad 90's songs and so far all of the songs we've collected beats just about anything today in terms of offending the ears (very scientific). We may have had souljah boy, but the 90's had Rico Suave, at least souljah boy has a sort of universal catchiness in the beat and tempo.

    Mclain's has pretty nice food as well. Bellevue has always seemed a little weird to me, has an oddly large downtown for a city its size but, if you're on the main road, there's not much after you get out of it. I think this town is also some huge train hub.
  15. Of the national chains, Papa Johns. Of the regional chains, I love East of Chicago. And this joke from comedian Neil Hamburger (America's 1$ Funny Man) states my thoughts on Dominos. Why did God create Dominos pizza? To punish mankind for their complacency during the holocaust.
