Why is there never any people around when you're taking pictures?
I mean.. was there some kind of nuclear blast in downtown Cleveland and the only mutant left .. is you?
((Hugs))

Laura, I get the same remark about my photos. (Only its downtown Columbus...but still no people.)
R.G., did one of those signs say swerve right when a full glass of Guinness comes into view?

laura, because radioactive mutants are scary, duh. Plus my Segway is heavily-armed.
if, unless there's something going on downtown, most non-entertainment (read: booze & hookers) sections pretty much evaporate post-rush hour.
& grab that brew as you scoot on by!
Once I applied for a poetic learner's permit, in hopes that one day I'd earn the actual poetic license. The Department of Poetic Vehicles reviewed my application, looked me over physically, and announced that I am a threat to all who travel the wordways. A palabric outlaw, I am! Sentenced to breaking inverted syntax and misplaced apostrophes in the hot sun!
Graves, you swine!
I was in Dayton once, and I think it is the gateway to Clevelandistan. It was amusing because there is a huge airforce base there protecting us agains (what?) Canada, who I think yearn to have a rust belt of their own.
Anyway, you could land a Stealth Bomber in the downtown after dark, and no one would witness it.
But on the plus side, Clevelandistan has Ruhlman, so you are already doing better than most failed cities (including San José).

The Ventures! Ah..my misspent youth!
Quite a nice post, and the accompanying muzik m'dear Randal. You worked hard on this..or else you are an idiot-savant. Not a slam, just an observation. ;-D
Great collection of images with songs to match. You are one deep dude and I hope you never fall off your armoured Segway when the ghouls come out.
I loved the Ventures. Does anybody remember Eddy Cochrane? Of course, I was just a tiny child at the time..
karl of the österreich, a pox on your pop, rocks, it does, cuz bees have fuzz, don't know why, can't pet 'em.
tengrain, Wright-Patterson, home of the last surviving XB-70 & Hangar 18, but not Dave Mustaine.
Plus, we have this amazing lack of people, a great boon for a misanthrope such as yours truly.
And precious, precious snow.
dusty, didn't work all that hard, which probably (read: likely) makes me an idiot, but I'm fine with that.
susan, mopey, perhaps. Man, I hate those things. Unless you're 80 or your leg is broken, well, shudder.
I read about Eddie in a history book, muah. Strangely, the first time I heard that song was Blue Cheer's cover.
Cool. An earworm with (almost) every photo.
Randal..by working hard I meant you took the photos, you uploaded them ...then you picked music for said photos which required you to search around the YouTube site and finally:
You posted the post. Dude..that is a lot of work and no you are not an idiot! ;)
if~ I had a friend that moved to Columbus back in the late 70's. Her name was Melanie. Do you know her?? :P
((Hugs))

Dayton? We all know that's not true. Everybody knows it's Akron where tires are no longer produced. Chinese rubber is so much cheaper you know.
Tengrain, that base is supposed to protect us from Cincinnati. But they're not doing a very good job (see Robert Mecklenborg for a recent example).
Laura, I don't know a Melanie from here. (Truth be told, I am not quite the social butterfly I was a decade or so ago.)
I blame society.

LMAO- I blame society You are just too cute dude. ;-P
