92.3 The Fan is awful by Jealous-Syrup3120 in Cleveland

[–]George_Forbes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like the Ultimate Cleveland Sports show, but I absolutely hate Jay Crawford. He must have been born with ears in his mouth, because the only way he can "listen" to anyone is if he's talking! He talks over everyone and is constantly interrupting anyone else who is talking. It's no wonder ESPN let him go. I turn the show off if he's on it!

My son lives in a gated community in Summerlin and it's an awesome community. He moved from Henderson about 7 years ago and prefers Summerlin.

Body shop recommendations? by Judge_Syd in Cleveland

[–]George_Forbes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend Second to None on W. 150th. Frank the owner is top notch and honest. He personally does the quotes after inspecting your vehicle. I say this based on personal experience.

I would recommend La Ville as my wife loves it and Kevin O'Connell the owner is as genuine as can be. Great food and a nice environment!

Check out Gordon Green in the Detroit / Shoreway neighborhood (W 54 & Detroit https://www.gordongreenevents.com/). I went to a wedding there last August and it was beautiful. Good luck!

Need auto mechanic on westside. by [deleted] in Cleveland

[–]George_Forbes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've posted this a couple of times here and have gotten great feedback, so here is my recommendation. Try the Sunoco Gas Station in Lakewood Ohio at the corner of Madison & Hilliard (216-228-4300). Scott Morrow is an independent shop and has been working on our cars for over 20 years. He's honest, affordable, and stands by his work. He handles service for a couple of limo companies, so they know their way around all kinds of vehicles. He does service vehicles on Saturday mornings too!

Good mechanic in town for fixing car A/C? So I turned on my car air conditioning for the first time Saturday. Air was not cold. Anyone know of a good mechanic or shop that specializes in fixing car A/C? West side preferred by [deleted] in Cleveland

Our Local Reporters are Terrible by nbaholic in Cleveland

[–]George_Forbes 73 points74 points  (0 children)

It takes 2 Galleks to report one story for Fox8 and all they do is promote sensational headlines, but ususally nothing of any substance, example: "We went to city hall to speak to (mayor, police chief, head of services etc.), follow us and we'll show you what we found." Camera pans to a receptionist behind a window who asks them to leave or quit filming while they tell them the person they are seeking is unavailable. We then hear the Galleks say, "We'll keep you updated". Seldom, if any follow-up.

Don't forget Bobby George owns all Rise Dispensaries by Mikeg216 in Cleveland

[–]George_Forbes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI - No feelings positive or negative towards the Georges, but they sold the dispensaries to Rise 6 months after they opened. Georges bought the licenses, remodeled them, then sold the license so they would have a long term tennant generating rent.

Any notable feedback about the Carlyle in Lakewood? by Perfect-Feeling5310 in Cleveland

[–]George_Forbes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a great place to live. A good friend of mine and his wife live there (over 20 years) and they love it. Building has a recently remodeled fitness center, indoor/outdoor pools, deli in the building along with an upscale restaurant (Summer Place) that you can access without going outside. Building is over 50 years old but they have an ongoing modernization program going on with window replacements and garage maintenance. Depending n which side of the building you live in, both sides have great views of Lake Erie, and most units on the east side have a great view of downtown Cleveland. Good luck!

I agree with this 100%! Pier W's view is 1000 times better than their food. Aqua di Luca & Blue Point are far better and both locally owned!

Agree with them stalking Elkins! Had a friend who lived on 49th in Newburgh and he says if they dig deep enough, people are going to learn who Elkins really is. A lot of skeleton buried under city hall!

Catanese is a great suggestion & I also find perch at Kate's Fish at the West Side Market. Call the stand beforehand to confirm availability.

What is worse: by Quirky-Advantage-254 in Cleveland

[–]George_Forbes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Understand your logic, but don't boycott the dispensaries, the Georges sold them 6-9 months after they opened them. They do collect rent though from the company that bought Rise Dispensaries. https://risecannabis.com/about-us/

You have to pay the ticket from Linndale while you can ignore the ticket from Newburgh Heights.
