71 years ago, the Moondog Coronation Ball was held in Cleveland. The concert was planned by my grandfather Leo Mintz of Record Rendezvous, and Alan Freed, with whom he supplied R&B records for his radio show. This, the only known intact ticket, was donated to the Rock Hall.

It was bound to happen: our first road emergency since purchasing our 1993 motorhome 2 months ago and driving more than 1,700 miles.
We feared the worst; that our RV would be towed to a garage while we waiting for hours (or days) as it was repaired. Nothing of the sort occurred

Who in Ohio plans to grow their own cannabis after Issue 2 passes tomorrow? "Adults 21 and older would be permitted to legally grow and cultivate up to six plants within their home." Also I would assume "within home" includes outdoor garden?

In the late-80s, early-90s you could not find a seat at 3 a.m. at places like Big Egg, Chuck's Diner, Clifton Lunch. These joints would fill up after restaurants closed at midnight, bars and clubs at 2 am. They’d get another turn of customers after third-shifters clocked out.
Jake's Deli, My Friends, Gyro George... there's a handful of restaurants in Northeast Ohio that remain open, all the time.

Ohio Senate Republicans are trying to change the state's marijuana law before it goes into effect. The proposed changes would eliminate home grow, raise the tax rate, alter how the funds would be used, and lower THC levels
