hails from the days when pollution from cleveland was so bad that the water actually caught fire. here is an excerpt from wikipidia on lake erie
Lake Erie is the shallowest of the Great Lakes and infamously became very polluted in the 1960s and 1970s. Urban legend has described it as a dead lake, but both sport and commercial fishing have continued without interruption to the present day. Pollution in the lake did not get much attention until the great Cuyahoga River Fire in June of 1969. Pollution from Cleveland and other Ohio cities had so contaminated this tributary of Lake Erie with petrochemicals that it actually caught on fire. The fire embarrassed state officials and prompted the U. S. Congress to pass the Clean Water Act.

Cleveland /ˈkliːvlənd/ is a city in the U.S. state of Ohio and is the county seat of Cuyahoga County,[5] the most populous county in the state. The city is located in northeastern Ohio on the southern shore of Lake Erie, approximately 60 miles (97 km) west of the Pennsylvania border. It was founded in 1796 near the mouth of the Cuyahoga River, and became a manufacturing center owing to its location on the lake shore, as well as being connected to numerous canals and railroad lines. Cleveland's economy has diversified sectors that include manufacturing, financial services, healthcare, and biomedical.

I lived in Cleveland Ohio for 37 1/2 years.I know what it is about.I gave birth to 6 kids.Just moved recently.Tired of dumb teachers that is making kids dumb.Tired of adults and teens who thinks its ok to hit on any little kid walking down the street.Tired of all the drugs,shootings,stabbings,fights,gangs,tired of the fact that whites and blacks will never get along no matter what.Cleveland is over ran with cock roaches and rats.I did not have them but most in Cleveland does.I moved from Cleveland Ohio in July of this year and never looked back.The only good thing in Cleveland Ohio is Dick Goddard.What lakeview are you talking about? The one that is green,black,brownish color depending how mucky it is? If that the lake you are talking about you can keep it.I moved from W.95th and Detroit.Thats right on the lake.Those who went to Cleveland on vacation should not comment because you have no idea what its like till you live there.I mean put your kids in the schools there.Work there.Walk the streets there day and night.Of course you likes the museums but thats not living there.

Well, as a future citizen of Cleveland, I have been doing a lot of research on snow fall and Cleveland real estate (I am a San Diego native) and have found that the closer you are to the lakes, the more snow you will get! So, I doubt that jealousy is the factor versus people not wanting nine months of winter. Personally, we are trying to live closer to Akron to avoid this!

Come on...if you are from here and have that attitude you must live in a bubble. We are number 8 on the most dangerous cities to live in. We are the poorest largest city in the nation and rank somewhere on the list of top 10 drunkest cities.

nicely the following is what i imagine. First you should be really confident she reported this. evaluate the source from that you purchased the initial information. might want to they be attempting to commence something? perhaps or perhaps not. second, if her friendship extremely concerns you want to communicate over consisting of her. purely attitude this intently. tell her that your heard something that has disillusioned you. you've faith that is a rumor yet you want to communicate over consisting of her to sparkling the air. Be prepared to hearken to what you do not favor to and be prepared to go with. If she did say this are you waiting to forgive or not. you've gotten to make the decision. third, if she did say this my wager is that she is perhaps jealous. Does she have someone in her existence? Is she the position she needed to be by now. Are you very pleased and take care of? one ingredient my solid chum to me is that when you've childrens your friends will replace. you commence to spend time with those who're in similar cases of their lives, develop their childrens in similar fashions.... perhaps she is jealous of the time you're spending with your household and by no potential her. you've plenty on your plate and sound like you're headed contained in the right route. do not enable others derail your progression. Do good by your friends yet do not their topics get rid of out of your happiness and delightful kinfolk. Be prepared to make some sacrifices for your household. this may must be one. i desire it will be worked out, yet you and your household are #a million.

Because they have a sense of humor. Go to Dublin and you'll find the statue of Molly , whom the locals refer to as the "tart with a cart" and similar jokes in other towns all over the world.
