We used to go into abandoned buildings too. One was a big old 12 story, to get in we had to go up the fire escape. It was terrifying, half the bolts were broken, it would bang against the brick building on the way up.

Great times

You know I grew up in Cincinnati. Now, I've spent a little time in Cleveland. It may not be the best city on Earth, but I'd take it over Cincinnati in a heart beat. Missed moving there by just a smidge. I had a pretty dang good offer to do what I'm doing here about a year before I got this job.

What I meant was closer to the top of the list of worst cities, which is a bit of an oxymoron. That is one list you don't really want to move "up" on. Considering their recent history, to describe the Chiefs and Royals lackluster teams is to heap undeserved praise upon them.

David Glass, who is (was?) also CEO of Wal-Mart has turned the Royals into a team that Wal-Mart shoppers can be proud of. (They're cheap)

I shouldn't delight in our misery It's not a bad place to live, cost of living is low, folks are ok, and perhaps now that we're on the bottom, and the entire government is about to be tossed in jail, and we just passed a major overhaul of government to boot in response, there may be a comeback for the comeback city of the 80s.

I can see the ads: 'Need inexpensive polluted land and a cheap demoralized workforce for your company? Cleveland: We're open for business!' lol.

Seriously, a few years back our line was 'New York may be the Big Apple, but Cleveland's a Plum.'

But I don't wanna be a plum!
