News from around the Buckeye State Ohio

Let’s start up north in Cleveland.
Mayor Frank Jackson who was nowhere to be seen during the riots only to come out of hiding to say Cleveland is sometimes perceived to be ‘butthole of the world’.
Sorry Mayor Frank Jackson you are perceived to be that.
And in Cleveland sports QB Mayfield said he will be taking the knee for the anthem. Nothing new to the city as all their QBs take a knee, this one will just happen sooner.

Moving east to the Geranium City that’s if you can find any Wickliffe, residents want to impeach, recall and like to stone the mayor but he already is. They have a list of 19 reasons why he should be impeached far more than any David Letterman list. While the city goes to pot he is smoking pot. He cancelled leaf collection but lit up city hall green on 4-20. Most mayors encourage you to pull weeds in your yard but Wickliffe’s current mayor wants you to grow weed in your yard. Gee and I thought he was always smiling because he is a friendly guy.

Next up is Willoughby Hills. Fireworks may be cancelled on the 4th but they are always present at the Willoughby Hills council meetings. Councilwoman Nancy Fellows has been hit with a lawsuit. Among the charges are union busting. Earlier Council member John Plecnik resigned as did Councilwoman Majka who was critical of "a dark side for those who speak up and challenge the status quo in Willoughby Hills City Hall. The only thing missing from these meetings is cattle rustling and I am sure it will be discussed next time.

Let’s drop down to the capital of Ohio, Columbus, who will be taking down the statue of whom the city is named after, Christopher Columbus. If they do take it down the question then becomes should they rename the city? Names already off the list for possible replacement are Aunt Jemima and Uncle Ben. Columbus’s hockey team the Bluejackets who fire off a cannon when they score may also be under attack. Thinking ahead a suitable replacement may be a paper bag inflated and popped.
Lastly little Michael DeWine our Governor has made a list to reform the police into friendlier more educated servants. Keeping with this cops bad - criminals good theme instead of arresting law breakers the city will erect little time out zones and have police read them stories. 

Now let’s drop down further south in Ohio to the Apple City Jackson though they no longer have apple farms. Landlords want to storm council for passing a bill making them liable for utility bills when tenants skip out. I think one way to ease this is to pass an ordinance where you can only rent to Amish. If that’s not bad enough Councilwoman Carisa Edwards spouted off concerning the Christmas decorations and wrote this it’s because of all the people bitching about that their dead relatives hang from a light pole during Christmas time. Then she went on to say I don’t give two &*^%$* about a virus that occurs naturally. Mother Earth was designed to protect herself and I feel that is what’s happening. We have over populated her. We throw trash into the oceans. We cut down precious habitat. So she is putting up a big middle finger and taking back herself.
I know someone who may not be getting any Christmas presents and I never knew how much Jackson has played a role in damaging the ecosystem of the globe. 
Bring back the Apple farms because an apple a day may keep the council at bay.
Let me know what’s up in your city?

Carey On…
