  1. It doesn't seem rational to cut back on the one revenue generating aspect of the project.
  2. ^ For some reason the thought of seeing LeBron jogging over that bridge in real life seems so outlandish! And seeing that last shot of the gym, well, I hope he had his tetanus shot up to date lol
  3. Steelers pulled an uncharacteristic choke-job and it was nice to see!!
  4. Great to hear. I am very much looking forward to seeing something so different, architecturally.
  5. The nearby side street, Linda, has kind of a Rainey St, Austin TX kinda vibe going on.
  6. ^ I liked that building.
  7. Lakewood is safe. Yeah, it has its issues, but by and large its a very safe place to raise a family imho. And if you do have an issue in Lakewood, the police response time is literally seconds. Very true. And that's one of the primary reasons I bought a house there, when I could've gotten a much larger one just over the border in Cleveland.
  8. Columbus overall does a better job with their residential imho.
  9. Lakewood is safe. Yeah, it has its issues, but by and large its a very safe place to raise a family imho.
  10. Yeah first thing I thought too. When it wasnt know or only speculation, it would have been considered stereotyping and racist to imply as much... I love how the owner of the Odean was all "we're shocked that this happened". Damn those Hip hop shows. I've been out of the loop, but I'm pretty sure the Odeon and Roc Bar have the same ownership. I have not heard anything positive about either venue. These could very well be trouble spots for the time being.
  11. Huh? I mean, as opposed to a peaked roof. I understand that not every building lends itself to that option. But it seems every flat roof from Frank Lloyd Wright houses to every 50's-70's school building in America, they inevitably leak.

    That's interesting, but why would he then have that monologue to himself/Vader's mask about feeling the pull to the light side? I think they could have intentionally built that line to have a secret meaning for future films, but I don't think his intent is finish the Sith. Okay you guys have me thinking....what if the light side of the force won't let him go far enough? Maybe he needs to get fully into the dark side in order to truly eliminate the Sith?
  13. From that vantage point I can't help but think that the surrounding buildings are, somehow, going to have to become something more in order for the Square to be a truly great place. I'm not really sure what can be done architecturally. But there has to be a way to enliven the sidewalks while respecting the historic integrity. Right now the large, monolithic buildings just appear to be very standoffish.
  14. ^ The Square is finally looking like...something!

    Would it be too obvious if she were Luke's daughter?
  16. Ultimately it shouldn't be. But as we've seen from any sizable event the past two years there is still not adequate access in and out of the park.

    Introducing: Machete Order How can you ensure that a viewing keeps the Vader reveal a surprise, while introducing young Anakin before the end of Return of the Jedi? Simple, watch them in this order: IV, V, II, III, VI. You may notice Episode I is gone. I'll get to that in a second. http://www.nomachetejuggling.com/2011/11/11/the-star-wars-saga-suggested-viewing-order/
  18. That area is a mess and I don't see any great solution presented.
  19. The defense was "loaded with talent" ha ha...sure it was.
  20. Heard during Monday nights game the the NFL has commissioned a "Catch Committee." Yes that's right. A group of rocket scientists and brain surgeons who will determine once and for all what a "catch" is. This is the lamest sport ever.
  21. ^ The Pocono's??
  22. ^ Anyone else think that flat roofs are idiotic?
  23. What's with all the pinks and purples lately with the Rock Hall speaker concept and now this? Cleveland is a northern city. It deserves a classic northern colorscape. I know we all hate the beige/gray, but I'm not sure fuschia is the best look for us.
  24. Say What.

    I can't stand when people say "vee-HICK-el" instead of "VEE-uh-cal." I don't know, it just sounds uneducated to me.
