Goodwill, worse than Walmart

In case you haven't heard, Goodwill is moving into the former Walgreen's at Mayfield Road and I-271.

Goodwill is a horrible company exploits the disabled by paying them less than minimum wage sometimes as low as $1.40 an hour. Their wage structure complete with high paid executives makes Walmart look like a paragon of corporate generosity.

Here's where I call out the hypocrisy of the Citizens for Oakwood clowns. They picketed and protested about Walmart's low wages and benefits but will say nothing about Goodwill. When Walmart moved from Cleveland Heights to South Euclid they cried "POACHING", yet said nothing when Fitworks moved from Hilltop Plaza to the old Catalano's up the road.

Baltimore

We are disgusted by the rioting in Baltimore. It accomplishes nothing positive. When we view footage of buildings aflame and cops being assaulted it makes us all the more grateful that we live in Cleveland. Police brutality should be condemned and addressed. That will happen in Baltimore and in Cleveland. But unlike Baltimore the citizens of Cleveland know how to protest peacefully without riots. The rioters are "lawless f---ing animals".

FLASH! Heights side of Oakwood sold to HAC

This information was published in the Heights Observer on March 30.

The Hebrew Academy of Cleveland is in the final stages of buying the Cleveland Heights side of the old Oakwood Country Club. The HAC has signed a letter of intent and will probably finalize the deal within the next couple weeks. A new school will be built to house about 250 students grades 1-6. The HAC hasn't said whether they will preserve renovate or demolish the old clubhouse.

Fran Mentch has yet to issue her usual fatwa or maybe she's given up caring. Not a peep from any of the other usual suspects either. It appears they really were all in it as lackeys for the dying Severance Center.
