    Last time I was in the US, I bumped into an old classmate (definitely not a friend) who sneered the same thing. When I told her that I actually live in China 11 months out of the year, the look on her face was PRICELESS!

    Yeah- having been the odd one out at school a lot of my old classmates are impressed that I now live in the UK. The fact that the town I live in is just as backwater as the one I left behind in Canada is a well-hidden secret ;-)

    A lot of references to Cleveland today. First Lila now here. Must be something in the burning river.

    Why aren’t they doing another International Women’s Day comic if today is that day? It doesn’t make sense.

    I haven’t been to Cleveland but doubt it’s anything special or that there’s anythng wrong with living there. Seems they’re down on Cleveland both here and on the Lila comic.

    It IS the home of the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame…

    Re Womens’ Day, I think Jan pre draws the colour Sunday comics, and randomly picks one.

    Back in the 70s there was an incident where the Cayahoga river was so dirty it caught fire. The place was quite industrial. So, people think of Cleveland before the hall of fame, etc. I grew up in Cleveland and Cleaveland Heights. We moved away when I was in the 5th grade. When I graduated high school my parents offered to send me on a Senior Trip (no organized one for my school), so I wanted to go “home” to visit… Cleveland. I still get razzed about it to this day. Always found it intersting, cultural, pleasant… so to those who put down Cleveland “PHFFTTTHTT!”
