Probably Kung Fu and Captain Kirk as a kid, then Han Solo and Indiana Jones. Also Bruce Lee but as you say as he was dead I kind of viewed him in a different light.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Are people from Cleveland bitter?

Never heard of that one.

A lot of them are.

Can't really blame them.

Cleveland used to be one of the biggest cities in the United States.  Then they started cross bussing to help racial integration... but most of the rich and middle class families feeling that the schools on the other side of the city were inferior fled the city afraid they're children would be the ones randomly chosen to be "Cross bussed" to the other side of town.

The city pretty much lost most of it's middle and upper class.... then the steel mills and other "High end" physical labor jobs closed down... except for the auto industry... which held on for a while but... hey you've seen how that's gone recently.

So there are some people bitter about that.

 

Then you've got the sports teams.  Most of Cleveland worships the Cleveland Browns like Europeons love Soccer.  The problem is... the Browns were perrenially bad.  Then they left the city for Baltimore.  They won a superbowl like... a year later... and the expansion team cleveland got back because they admitted the browns shouldn't of left has been one of the worst teams since it's came back... with it's star player being the guy who kicks the ball away when you do bad.

Outside of that you've got the Indians and Cavs who are both teams that also always seem to find a way to blow it.  Though usually they tend to get a bit farther.

So you've got a bunch of bitter Sports fans too.

 

 

Really though, cleveland does have some nice stuff.  Good Museum (even if it's under construction), good orchestra, always get good shows at the playhouse theatre... it's just other parts can be pretty horrible due to the lack of quality jobs.


It always is under construction though.  The road infront of Cleveland state for example was under construction when i started there.... and was still under construction when my girlfriend graduated from her Masters... and it likely still is under construction now.

Those videos were hilarious.

But on another note, I never thought but are you a Cleveland Browns fan? Because if so then we have something in common, the owner of the Cleveland Browns, Randy Lerner, is also the owner of my favorite football (soccer) team Aston Villa FC. Actually we're really grateful that he came along when he did because his investment has really changed the clubs fortunes around. Our old owner was a real tightarse, where as Randy Lerner basically just piled cash into the club.



Honestly i'd rather watch a English Premeir league game to an NFL game at this point... and actually have more recently.

Football has way too many commercials and stops... it's a really interesting game but the TV deals kinda kill watching it.

Now Soccer. That doesn't have nearly as many commercial breaks. If I was going to be bitter about anything it'd be that I'm not going to have the money to go down to the World Cup like me and a couple friends were going to do.

Though neither of them really have the money to be spending on that either I think.

None. I liked Captain Nemo and Dumas' musketeers though (not as depicted in various films, the ones from the original books). And they seemed like viable career choices to me at the time.
