So, I've been working in Cleveland for about 7 weeks now. It will be years before I know enough about the area to consider myself a native. But I'm getting there.

At dinner, I watched part of a Cleveland Indians game. I've never been a fan of the Tribe, even though they were the closest major league baseball team to my home town of Buffalo (other than the teams in Pittsburgh and Toronto). And I still have an issue with their mascot, Chief Wahoo. I think it's demeaning to Native Americans.

I've become a fan of the products of the Great Lakes Brewing Company, especially their award-winning Dortmunder Gold.

I also found a Skyline Chili on Ridge Rd., just north of I-480. So if I ever get the craving for a 4-way with onions, a cheese coney, and an iced tea, I now know where to go.

I want to spend more time by the lake shore before fall. In Dayton, I felt so landlocked.

Native Americans find that damned mascot demeaning. Very demeaning.

I'm glad you like the brewery and that you found a Skyline Chili for those cravings for a favorite food.
