Ohio…

I saw on the news where they think the big blackout started somewhere near Cleveland. Now, as any good Ohio resident can tell you, Cleveland fully deserved it’s nickname (the mistake on the lake) long before this event occurred, but it somehow does seem fitting, doesn’t it?

BTW, some of the reasons Cleveland is known as the mistake on the lake? Well there was the time the river caught fire, not to mention the fact that the city was, supposedly, named after someone named Cleaveland, so it’s even spelled incorrectly! We won’t even get into the rich, mistake prone, sports history of the town either…. 😉
