The best thing about this website is that I'm not very good at it. Excuse my awkwardness. And it will always be The Jake and The Terminal Tower to me.

WHO FRAMED ROGER RABBIT was released 36 years ago today. A groundbreaking blend of live action and animation, and one of the most popular films of director Robert Zemeckis, the behind the scenes story isn’t bad, it’s just drawn that way… 1/39

1. The local Ace store services our community with a large number of century homes. The owner is committed to us, knows his stuff and stocks accordingly. 2. Home Depot/Lowe's only has what you need to build a MIL suite, and the help there know nothing.

Ace Hardware has an unconventional business model in the US. The stores are independently owned purchasing cooperatives.. so the stores are all owned locally, but they buy in bulk together. Unlike Home Depot, its profits stay in the neighborhood, not extracted by shareholders.

don’t let the fact that the ravens blew a 31-17 fourth quarter lead today distract you from the fact that the warriors blew a 3-1 lead in 2016 and the cuyahoga river came back from a 13-fire deficit

in 1968, two species of fish were found in the polluted and plagued Cuyahoga River. two. between 1990 and 2022, we've tracked more than 70 different species of fish calling the Cuyahoga River home. here is every one of them.

never forget: on this date in 1955 Doc Brown was standing on his toilet, hanging a clock, when he slipped, fell, hit his head on the edge of a sink, and had a vision of the flux capacitor. never forget: plumbing is at the center of the time travel universe. never forget.

Second from right, our favorite waitress! She always makes sure we have a good dinner, and we tip accordingly (I think). – at Cleveland, OH

Visited one of the hardest-working restaurant teams in Cleveland. Thanks to the George's Kitchen squad for taking the time to pose for a Halloween pic this morning. Don't forget to visit this classic West Park location soon, located at 13101 Triskett Rd, Cleveland. -Oct. 31, 2023

The 49ers reg season win streak will end next week in Cleveland if for no other reason than it will give us unrealistic hopes for the Browns

Met with Elaina Kovach, owner of Style House Beauty Bar, in the 5th Street Arcades in @DowntownCLE. Elaina warmly shared about her chic establishment, and mentioned that just down the hall in the Arcade, she and her sister proudly own the lovely spot called Intro Botique.
