  1. I just took a Lufthansa 747 from Munich to OHare prior to Covid. There was something about biz class on the upper deck that made me feel there was still hope for a return to the heyday of airline transport.
  2. I hope this doesn't take over en masse for trans Atlantic routes. I much prefer the widebody flights to Europe, unless it was a direct daytime LGW-CLE ?
  3. Only 30 left in passenger service. I consider myself lucky to have flown hundreds of thousands of miles on a 747--will miss them!
  4. Boeing has lost more than 800 orders for the 737 MAX this year Though Boeing now anticipates U.S. federal approval to unground its 737 MAX in September, company data released Tuesday shows that in the first half of this year the manufacturer lost just over 800 orders for the troubled airplane. https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/boeing-has-lost-more-than-800-orders-for-the-737-max-this-year/
  5. Not surprised--I had somewhere around 25 flights since March that I've had refunded. And there are people that fly WAY more than me doing the same. Truly sad--hopefully United will make it through this downturn.
  6. The stadium was 35 years old at that point and looked like it was 70!
  7. I think I know 10 versions of this same guy. And even on the east side where I grew up, the guys I went to high school with are moving FURTHER east out into Perry, Thompson etc. I asked one of them and he told me he started to see too many black folks around Eastlake, Willowick, etc.
  8. I was merely pointing out that it was the first European explorers who applied the misnomer.
  9. Especially if referencing ACTUAL Indians. Maybe rework Wahoo into Apu? ?
  10. I supported the end of Chief Wahoo because it was clearly racist. I don't support the name change because I don't think it's offensive. "Indians" isn't even an accurate name for Native Americans.
  11. When I was at CSU years ago I lived in the Chesterfield on E 12th. The convenience store on the ground floor was a great asset--especially for a college student coming home after a few too many beers and still hungry!
  12. i came across this today hunting for other historical photos. From the post-riot 60's.
  13. Such a shame--the St Clair/Superior neighborhood used to be filled with these very kind of buildings!
  14. Sweet! That section of Detroit is hopping!
  15. I imagine it's on a back burner. No shows at PHS means no crowds to advertise to!
  16. Apparently the Fed and Treasury Secretary think it helps.
  17. Are they supplying temporary storage as well?
  18. Color photos from the Great Depression https://allthatsinteresting.com/great-depression-color-photos?utm_campaign=pdtyc&utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social

    These 8 teams should all get some kind of incentive for the next season. Maybe an extra draft lottery pick.
  20. Sobering. Nearly half of American adults are now unemployed https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/markets/nearly-half-of-american-adults-are-now-unemployed/ar-BB167gf0?ocid=st

    This weather in June has been amazing!
  22. Where is this located? I couldn't get into the article and not about to give Advance Media any subscription money ?
  23. Congrats--I actually locked in at 3.25 back in 2010 when Obama was trying to jumpstart the housing market again. Haven't seen much better deals since. I have been adding extra every month so don't owe all that much--thinking of shopping for a 10 year ARM if I can control the costs.
  24. C'mon Mr Gilbert! Kill that muni lot outlet mall plan and move it to Tower City. Last chance for retail in downtown Cleveland.
  25. Welcome to the Trump economy ?
