  1. Missed this! Yeah this looks very well done. Great audio: check Great visuals: check Great CLE local music soundtrack: check There you have it; the indie film trifecta of greatness.
  2. I'd really hate to be that GB tight end that had the onside kick bounce off his face. Or that GB defensive back that let the receiver catch the desperation 2 pt. conversion pass. Props to R. Wilson and Co. They kept their cool. They stepped up and made plays when it counted most. p.s. anyone else think that Indy was vastly overrated?

    Parking garage owners are notoriously bad about this. Most of us know the dead zones between E9 and E12 often resemble not a city, but a foreboding ice planet. Nice to hear zoning is on board with positive changes that could remedy this. Now with retailers, their life blood is reliant on customer safety and access. More of that please! :-)

    Some fun, some aggravation (as always). Nice to get the win!

    Early 90's shoutout to Saranac Brewing Co. and Petes Wicked Ale. (and some lesser props to Michelob Dark, Killians and Honey Brown which, while not anywhere near amazing, they certainly helped break the ice a bit) Pete's Summer Brew was my first favorite flavored beer. We have a picture of my niece at age about 18 months pulling a bottle out of a six pack. Thanks for picking next week's "TBT" Facebook pic for me. :-) Get 'em started young haha.
  6. ^ This news should cross post in the Suburban Sprawl thread.

  8. Not too much support for the kid in the facebook comments.
  9. ^ Happy 100th birthday, beautiful church. And good luck....
  10. Woohoo!! Congrats Will....AND GO ZIPS!!!!!!!
  11. Wow, I'm with Cleburger. Make some NFL money asap. Otherwise I'd be walking on eggshells worrying about tripping, etc. and getting injured. But yeah you're 100 percent correct that he's got a lifelong guarantee of job security in Columbus.
  12. For sure. The "beggars can't be choosers" mentality has to end some time.
  13. This is a Gehry-design compared to the glorified Carrabbas that is "Beach Taco," aka building 8A.
  14. It would be a big mistake, a big missed opportunity imho not to market the former Swingos as an historic boutique hotel.
  15. In college I was constantly showing people around Cleveland...people who grew up in places like Parma, Strongsville and Brunswick. None of these guys knew where anything was. I grew up in New Jersey.
  16. My only wish is that I could be there to watch that building die!

    The team is really good at losing by double digits.
  18. So are you suggesting the city to emulate is Houston? If so, why isn't Ohio booming? It's got the same GOP-type governance, same sprawl-friendly policies, same pro-car, pro-highway transportation policies, a population with a similarly conservative mentality, and the same devotion to football above all else...... Nope. I'm proving that if you want to run with "blame the GOP" rhetoric it would be more effective if you could support it with facts. If that's your opinion, then great. But suggesting houses in Cleveland are so cheap because of Republicans is just so incomplete, I'm not sure that does anything except create more unnecessary division.
  19. This is really oversimplified. For example, the city making the greatest percent change in the number of college graduates aged 25 to 34, from 2000 to 2012 is..... Houston, Texas. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/20/upshot/where-young-college-graduates-are-choosing-to-live.html?abt=0002&abg=1

    Chiming in, the new label looks terrible in comparison to the original.

    Love it!! One of my most favorite things is hearing out of towners digging CLE.
  22. Not too surprising, I suppose. Just about everything at Reddstone was uneven in the past three years. Everything from the quality of service to their hours of operation...you just never knew what to expect.
  23. In Athens they riot because of daylight savings time. They're just outwardly expressing how we all feel about the time change.

    ^ very interesting article. And the comment section is equally insightful.
