If you have heart problems it's the best city in the world to be near.
People come to Cleveland from faraway lands every day to go the the Cleveland Clinic.


Ask anybody down there, nobody "lives" in Cleveland they stay somewhere.
As in "I stay at my baby's momma's house".

Every other driveway in Cleveland has a G body with 22's on it along with an anchor chain from an iron ore freighter hooked to the car with a pit bull on the other end.
