......A coincidence......Just now, as I began typing this post, CBS This Morning...... which I always have on because I have a thing for Charlie Rose -- on vacation I guess this week (sigh).....So anyway, they just had a short segment about Cedar Point's new roller coaster, the Valravn. -- Of course, I had to look up that name. Found out it is the name of a supernatural raven from Danish folklore. -- This looks like one scary roller coaster.

Cedar Point is in Sandusky, about an hour from Cleveland. There are people who make pilgrimages to Cedar Point to ride the roller coasters there. And now, Cedar Point will have a new record-breaker. Speed and Flips and Drops. Oh my! -- I will not be riding it because for me the roller coaster would be named "Circles of Hell." But I thought maybe brave people out there might like to know about the Valravn so here is the link.

Cedar Point announces record-breaking new coaster, Valravn

The Cleveland Clinic is the number one heart hospital in the United States and has been for years. Helene was diagnosed there but had to wait until she was 16 for surgery because that was the dawn of congenital heart surgeries. That was only fifty years ago. There were more than 12 diagnosing doctors and each was warm and kind and VERY competent.


Some things you are glad to look back ON.

Thirty four years in the Cleveland area and I have never heard of a rivalry between Cincinnati, Columbus and Cleveland. They are all so different and each with its own weather.

How about this; "a cheerful banter."

Heck, everyone from Ohio knows Cincinnati isn't in Ohio it's really a part of Kentucky. Even the airport is in Kentucky.

The important thing to remember is this.


Friends don't let friends cheer for Michigan.

Going back to "the mistake on the lake" comment... I believe a friendly rivalry is conducted by pointing up how one's own city is good; not by tearing someone else's down.

As we once advised a security company poster who was bashing every other security company... tell us why yours is good, not why theirs is bad.

There are several, but they tend to be smaller colleges. Franklin University, and Columbus State Community College are among the larger. I know very little about either though.

Ummmm.......The Ohio State University......small?! WHen our girls went there OSU had a total enrollment of 64,000!

CFrance 09-12-2015 06:46 PM

I was going to say that, but OSU is not a college. I was also going to mention Capital University, an excellent school, but that's also a university.

The question was about colleges. Having attended both I understand the differences.
