But they rebounded in the last two games, taking two out of three from divisional opponent KC which was on a hot streak before they came to town. As of the eighth inning of the second game against KC, it looked like the Tribe was going to lose this series. Instead they won it.

City Discussion / Re: Downtown Cleveland skywalks

I consider all of the parking garages attached to various skyscrapers as skywalks. How many people enter/leave downtown without ever setting one foot on its sidewalks? And that includes the parking garage behind the four theaters on Playhouse Square -- which is connected by an enclosed walkway.

How many Skywalks are there/will there be in Downtown Cleveland?
1) New County admin/Ameritrust tower  2)  Horseshoe Casino
Is there any more?

There are a couple smaller skywalks scattered about. Like the one between the parking garage and KJP's city club building.  But I don't see your point though. The casino is the single largest entertainment venue downtown. It may be just two skywalks but they are connecting two very significant structures.

If KeyBank left downtown, would you say, well it is just one company. Yeah but it's the largest employer in the CBD.

Urbanbar / Favorite Music At The Moment?

I remember wanting to go see the U2 Achtung Baby tour because the Pixies were the opening act. I was in 7th grade and my neighbor dubbed me a copy of Trompe Le Monde which had just come out. The timetable on all of that is fuzzy. For some reason I've thought Trompe Le Monde was released after the break up. I guess not now that I think about it.

I haven't heard anything. They were leasing very well though and last move-ins aren't until September, so there may still be some available.

Does Anyone know the current status of the Rosetta Center?  Are they fully rented?

^^I'm going to ignore your invitation to dumb down the conversation to a point you might feel more comfortable with.  Your first example was of a government sponsored nativity scene, not christmas trees.  There's a big difference between the two.  Santa Claus, Christmas trees, holiday lights, etc. are "more cultural."  Nativity scenes are specific to a religious celebration of the holiday.  My family celebrates X-mas in a completely non-religious way, as do countless others...... just as we do with Easter eggs, bunnies, and baskets.  I know more than a few Christians who celebrate Halloween.

FYI.... the ACLU is closed on Christmas - http://www.aclu.org/celebrating-christmas-america

How does the portrayal of a face or full body of a certain person, in this narrow case the original inhabitants of this land, endorse a religion -- or for that matter involve religions at all? And how does it endorse Paganism, of which Native Americans apparently had no knowledge until after the Europeans arrived? Rather, native beliefs were wide-ranging although there were some similarities among the various nations http://nationalhumanitiescenter.org/tserve/eighteen/ekeyinfo/natrel.htm. There was no single religion adhered to by Native Americans.

I wish people had fewer opinions and more curiosity, or more eyes and ears and less mouth. Maybe we would appreciate more and hate less.
