I also enjoy Alex's photo threads and your thread "Clouds Got In The Way". It is really refreshing to look at after a stressful day.
I feel bad that I have been posting in Jim's Cloud photo thread. I wish someone had said something earlier. I feel like such a Buttinsky.
Peter
I always thought you were adding quality to the thread.

Troll of the Year: Corey Rossen. Noone has done a better job embodying the Team Summers mentality. Like Team Summers, he says noone reads the Deck....yet reads it multiple times per day.
Thank you for proving my point.
I'm not sure if you really know what trolling on the internet means, I have been here since the beginning. But I would expect that from someone who thinks "noone" is a word. (Wink, wink)

I always enjoyed the posts that made me laugh.
That was almost always guaranteed anytime Matthew Markling attached a youtube snippet to complement a post.
It was absolutely guaranteed whenever Build Lakewood would send one of their professional victims onto The Deck to conjure up or to reinforce the image of them typing a post, huddled in the basement, desperately sending out THE MESSAGE, with one eye on the keyboard and the other on the street. Ever fearful, ever searching for that phantom mob of mean spirited "Lakewood Observers" who were advancing with lighted torches and pitchforks in hand. That really that made me laugh.

I'm thinking those posts (the ones not made here) were made at other discussions boards and social media sites under faux names.
Gotta appreciate folks Corey who are not afraid to use their real identities and express their views.
You are most likely correct about posts on other sites. I am just thinking of all the times people have said that they no longer wish to post on the Deck due to the antics that occur. It also seems that many people have gone away or been weeded out from making comments on the Deck due to such treatment if they do not "drink the Kool Aid" and have opposing thoughts.
At this rate it will be a very quiet Deck in 2016 with only about 5 or 6 people left to comment here. What a shame that this is where the Project has taken the Deck.

Wait, I never got any Kool Aid! No fair!
The other discussion board is quiet too with even fewer participants. When and if the hospital issue quiets down and other topics arise, there will be people to address them.

As if on cue, Corey uses the "professional victim" routine right after Mark describes it.
The folks I know that don't post anymore are BL shills that came here explicitly to deliver propaganda. They didn't like being questioned, so they went elsewhere. That explains why BL started its own media, hiring Rick Uldricks to get LC and then launching the fake newspaper.

Seriously that is your stance? "The people I know..."
You can do better than that. I figured the Observation Deck School of Insults would have taught you better. Apparently "noone" taught you. (Wink, wink)

One of the craziest concepts that follows the Observer is it is "A Club" or "Group Think" that we all compare notes, and we work as a machine, or we are told what to think or write.
The only Kool Aid ever peddled regularly around here has been "Lakewood needs Clean, Safe, Fun with a government accountable to the residents and businesses."
Seems more like water than Kool Aid to me. Sorry, no Kool Aid, and certainly no Cool Aid.

Meg, Alex, Mike and All,
Thank you for your kind words, but in my view....
The best "POSER of 2015" should clearly be awarded to Corey Rossen.
After a brief time in rehab away from the Deck due to Dr. Jimmy's RX, he returned to the Deck as a Christmas present from heaven for all of us to enjoy.
Corey,
Thank you for being you!.

Hey Internet Muscles, do your research and look up my initial posts. I was on your side. Was. I even signed your petitions, but you have proven to pursuade your own followers to jump ship. You should be very proud of yourself.
How many others have you persuaded to defeat you? Which they have. Apparently it was a lot.
Do your research on my persuasion tactics...I had none. I was only asking questions and not trying to pursuade anyone, any views or any votes.
Keep sending the hate, it only proves my point.
This troll loves to be proven right, thank you for being you!

With all due respect, I feel that there is a good amount of evidence.
1. CCF and the city have been fighting the discovery process all along in court. If there is nothing dubious or potentially incriminating, why are they not turning paperwork over?
2. Why was everything held in executive session regarding this deal? Possibly to hide anything dubious or incriminating?
3. There is the issue of Fitz's fake newspaper. This was turned over to the proper agencies as a potential election law violation. Why did this appear to be swept under the rug?
4. There is also the issue of alleged mayoral campaign material being included in July's water bill. I believe several people turned this over to several agencies for investigation. Although no violations may have been found, why did this appear to be swept under the rug?
5. There is also the issue of the "secret" meeting between LHA/city officials where armed CCF cops were guarding the door. Could there have been dubious activity being discussed?
6. There is the decanting plan that LHA and Summers created.
7. The contents of campaign finance reports (although this is circumstantial).
Lori, this sure got buried in a hurry.
Granted there's a ton of suspicious behavior, but there's either a lack of substantiation on the big stuff, or election violations that were out in the open, but relatively small potatoes considering the big money the City is losing in the deal. Still, where there's smoke there's fire and there's an awful lot of smoke blowing from City Hall.
We need to put Woodward/Bernstein on the case.

Truth sounds like hate to those who hate the truth.
Exactly how much money di you raise for CCF?
Dr. Jimmy,
Call the guys with the white suits again.
Can we still give him the Best Poser Oscar while he's in rehab? This last post is an LOL X 10!

You're losing me with your bad jokes and I can't figure out your Dr. Jimmy references.
I am quite proud of the nearly $100,000 my charity has donated to the Children's Hospital for Pediatric Cardiology at the Cleveland Clinic but I am not sure how that relates to Lakewood Hospital. I don't think that our contribution to the PediPump, which is an artificial heart pump for newborns with heart disease, has anything to do with this. I think you are stretching too far to make some kind of joke or point or maybe you are just trying too hard.
What truth are you referring to? Have you researched my initial posts yet?

The truth about the real Corey Rossen.
The truth about why you post/pose here.
"My Charity"? Really?
Is 85 nearly 100?
