It is. Movies aren't. The book (In God We Trust: All Others Pay Cash) takes place in Hammond, Indiana. There is absolutely no references to Ohio. Except in one story, Cleveland Street in Hammond. They even changed the name of store from Godblatt's to Higbee's. Just like the Rock and Roll HoF, Cleveland is a fraud... LoL...

The story really takes place in Hammond, Indiana... I never understood why Cleveland lays claim to it. It was just filmed in Cleveland. Cleveland was selected because it was the only place with a willing department store: "Director Bob Clark reportedly sent scouts to twenty cities before selecting Cleveland for exterior filming. Cleveland was chosen because of Higbee's Department Store in downtown Cleveland. (Since Higbee's was exclusive to northeast Ohio, the department store referred to in Shepherd's book and the film is most likely Goldblatt's, located in downtown Hammond [with the Cam-Lan Chinese Restaurant three doors down on Sibley Ave].) Until they connected with Higbee's, location scouts had been unsuccessful in finding a department store that was willing to be part of the film. Higbee's vice president Bruce Campbell agreed to take part in the project on the condition he be allowed to edit the script for cursing..." Cleveland is a fraud... In so many ways... LoL...

Wooo hold on. During "The Comeback" on Don Beebe's TD, that with review today, would come back (pun intended)... An Oilers player ripped off the middle "E" in "BEEBE", leaving only: " BE BE." My point? Anything works if close with that kinda name! LoL...

You gun loons are grossly over-paranoid, self-centered, and over-sell yourself. Big government doesn't need to take your firearms away from you to disarm you. Here is proof. This is how Big Government will disarm you. Nobody is taking your guns away, they are taking you away:

Nice! I put Bison/Helluva chip dip instead of mayo on bologna...

The Buffalo Elites that ran the buggy whip factories told Ford to get lost. It was only a matter of time before they figured out how to transfer power from The Falls further. BFLo has always been doomed by it's myopic thinking... Then when they realize their mistake, try to duplicate what others do. Why I advocate blazing their own path. Stay where they are. Stay against the grain, the window is closing.

Salt on melons isn't weird. Brings the sweetness to the surface. But... The vinegar... Never tried that!

The Bills first colors were silver and blue. Ralph is from Detroit. If Detroit doesn't exist, Bills probably don't. I have been waiting 20 years for the carp to get into Great Lakes... And I keep the lock gates open extra long at times. LoL... Gonna be interesting to see autonomous vehicles in winter, with snow removal operations and winter weather operating corrections.

We shall see. Got the clock ticking.

$300 a month? X amount of miles... Let's all rely on an app? How about ditching the cellphone bill? A nice car payment and insurance is less. Go anywhere you want, when you want. LoL... Great... Let's see how autonomous vehicles interact with real humans driving them... It's nice to dream... But I at 51 won't see it.

Oh oh... Mr.Kotter, what is:

Sorry... Ooops, you're the guy in the fur coat, right?

Yet... Less consumer trappings to spend it on like now.

Buffalo has always been a city of a select, but vocal, urban elite. It's a city that told Henry Ford to get ***** -ed... He then went to Detroit. We are a hard puzzle, people-wise, to figure out.

What's the bill going to be on that dinner? Remember... We are mostly "sweater wearers and cooler draggers." I hope the powers that be don't misjudge who their market really is. We got a loyal fan hollering all hell when "surge" pricing for the Cheaters game dinged him 5 extra bucks. CC: @BringBackFergy @mead107 @Cripple Creek BCC: @Gugny I hope I have this "blind carbon copy" thing all figured out... I'd sure hate to screw up and get their name out there. LoL..

But when it comes down to Downtown Buffalo, they usually don't... "Build it and they will come" doesn't apply... Unless it's free. Buffalo was one city killed by roads. Expressways. Buffalo was the first all paved city in the U.S. (for obvious winter reasons)... We have an expressway (Scajaquada) going right through Delaware Park & another(Niagara Section) hugging the water that should have been built further inland. Buffalo is designed to move people through and out... Not linger in. Oh... I see what you're saying!

That's not weird. Oh wait, you're NOT Canadian. LoL... This: + I just invented last week... LMAO

I thought the winning design calls for this: How are cars going to go down that thing. Can't wait till it snows... Be like the toboggan chutes @ Chestnut Ridge Park?

Let's look at this positively. I say we have a future first round pick in the National Nursing Home Fight Club League (NNHFCL) draft in 2048! ??

Not to mention the Sky Way route will be closed down and repurposed. Of course one can come in and leave other ways... But it's an traffic artery that is being shut down.

The Indianapolis experience is the ultimate in sterile. It's quite disturbing! Hope that never happens to BFLo! Nothing compares to BFLo in Orchard Park, maybe Green Bay around Lambeau. Kansas City... All old buisness models. Chicago is a joke. Be prepared to drop a grand.

https://www.vice.com/en_uk/article/yw55yw/experts-explain-why-you-laugh-when-you-shouldnt "...“In the field of psychology we understand the unusual things better than we understand the common things.”So there you go. Nervous laughter happens, you’re not alone, but it is a curse. On the plus side, this is most likely happening because your brain needs to diffuse the anxiety triggered by upsetting things, and therefore you are probably more sensitive, not less, than people who have their ***** under control. Use this line; it is likely your best defence."

BFLo is a radial city. I agree with you, the last thing Buffalo needs is the Bills downtown.

Actually it doesn't suck. We parked there last year in a parking garage a little bit away and I think we only paid $4 with SpotHero. We didn't mind the walk through downtown. It was a garage that is used for business during the week. I betcha there is even free parking in Indy.

Yeah... That's what we need. Sad. Well... The laughter will motivate the stick in the mud religious types? I see what you did there! LoL...
