Yesterday, I met a young architect in the city, who is trying to determine the zeitgeist of NEO. I am not sure that I can help him at all with his quest--but the timing of today's article in the Plain Dealer did take my breath away.

My Great Aunt Wee (Marie) came to mind today. She was a tough lady. Irish married to a Scottish man named French. I always felt that I had been favored in her mind's eye, but as I grew older, it became apparent that I did not meet the Irish standard. I was the fair child. The eldest and most apparently "Irish" of our clan. Red hair and blue eyes...I grew less Irish as I matured. There was always the spectre of the darker child. ( categories: )

Walking on the moonSubmitted by lmcshane on Sun, 02/06/2011 - 20:11.
There are two classes in Cleveland--those with cars and those who walk and ride public transit. For those who walk--it's like being on the moon and looking at another universe far, far away. ( categories: )

It's always about land and water rights...and the MOB. Nothing changes in America. So, don't be surprised when the West Shore communities (Bay Village, Westlake, Fairview Park, Rocky River*) break away.

HUSH money-bribe or donation?Submitted by lmcshane on Sat, 12/25/2010 - 12:27.
Question of the day--how does ~$23,000+ from developers (see inset article) in 2008, go to $ -162.00, to $6,800--when all of this time Mr. Rokakis has not had to run for a political office??? Oh, and what happened to Tony Sinagra--political fundraiser for the Hellenic Society in NEO??

REALNEO has Hixson's and Plantation Home in Lakewood--carrying on the tradition of holiday merry-making. Hixon's is still the crazy, dusty warren of knick-knacks and treasures, I visited as a child with my father. Please visit and make holiday memories for your little ones.

Is it a surprise to anyone that the suspected "Grim Sleeper," in the L.A. disappearance and murders of possibly more than a hundred women of color, worked in the City of Los Angeles police department?

At first, I was going to write some nice stuff about Michael DeAloia and his new book: ...but I am a bit miffed right now. I am mad, not at Michael DeAloia, who doesn't seem to let the local corruption dampen his enthusiasm for our fair city, but at the puppetmasters at NPI, the foundations and Greater Cleveland Partnership.
