From out of the river of yeast which flowed down from the silver hill behind the round mountain the strawberry-blonde serpent lurked. Casting her spell on the poor frustrated masses she wove her tales of abuse and sorrow while shaking her tail-feather for the delight of many. Ignoring the stench of her not forgotten past she crept passed my barrier of sanity and inundated me with her woe. Falling prey to her sadistic ways I was overcome by her grief as I was sucked into her vortex of cutting and self-mutilation. “Hark” I cried

what would Syd do if he found himself in the DEADZONE ? Would he eat a sheet of Roney Blotter and try to stare at the sun? Would he crumble up some mandrax and make a nice little ooze to cover his face to hide his luminous grin around town. Or would he just paint a picture so depressing it would equal his worst trip.

well...
there you have it. warts and all. bad grammar , dead links, missing links, missing posts, missing sheets ( LOL ). all that survives, at least online.
to the uninitiated, what you're looking at here is a forum, or blog, that was published on an "alternative weeklies" website which got so popular that the alternative weekly became JEALOUS and booted all forums off their website....

"child of violence" painted cruely in black on its bumblebee drivers side. miss that bus. paintball that bus."sung hay fat choy" bozo bunch that created oblivion space and dead weight sports structures at mouth and hinder door. retreat now in a stream and blur of red tailights on your forty seven minute dash back to the mountains of mashed potatoes on the edge of town. tonight is the night for drew's dime museum to reopen after all these years. a few geeks and goomlers set the stagelights tripping.jeans funny house is up and running two headed dogs, faint hearts do not apply. see you at the midnight show at the roxy burlesque.

Carp Potato Salad: Boil three deadzone carp (Sheephead will do if no carp available) in cayuga water, simmer untill falling off bone. Drain water into bathtub. soak potatoes (Cubed) and celery in bathtub. add gin, bloody mary mix and swizzle until well brined. Drain tub and scrape remaining contents into ozzy newsomes helmut. (Micheal Stanleys Mullet will do as well). Add your own mayo and shake well. serves you right !!!

Lately....I’ve begun to equate Georgie with a religious nut ala Jim Jones of Jonestown Guyana fame and Marshall Applewhite of the Heavens Gate crew. Georgie gets this weird look in his eyes when he starts to talk about his faith in GAWD. As if Georgie believes GAWD is speaking directly through him. Its giving me the Willies thats for sure....

I’m sure you’ve heard that the reserves are drying up and by next year the huge military machine will be running short of personnel. Whats that mean? Well... you know what it means. D-R-A-F-T ... Georgies GENERATION CLEANSING will be kicked into full gear (if it hasn’t already) and its GOOD MORNING VIET NAM (its worse than Viet Nam) all over again. I would prefer to leave the war OUT of the DEADZONE, because you really don’t want me to start posting links to BEHEADING videos. Thats a bit much. If you’ve never seen a grown man (who wasn’t a soldier, but a contractor) have a full emotional meltdown and sounding like a pig being slaughtered as a hooded man cuts off his head in full glorious COLOR ...consider yourself lucky.

Bleakness permiates McMerica. While brainwashed teenagers faithfully enlist to do King Georges bidding. They would lick his nads on the steps of the world bank while waiting for praise and money. Little do they know (because they slept through history class) which was the watered down truth bought and sold by governmental contracts, that they are fighting a mirror image of themselves distorted by television waves. Roney wherefore art thou when help is needed so desperately in the dead zone, overun by the neo casinostra monkeying with voting machines while kissing babies on the Dr. Phil show. Hath the Ronnie cheese so shredded thier delicate grey matter? Should the whole world suffer the same fate as the dead zone? Apparently so, since the dead zone has declared thier fate.

Welcome to THE DEADZONE harhawgrockler ; “not having fun”? you better get used to IT... Just be aware that when you’re LOGGED IN to the DEADZONE, you’re only allowed to view Right Wing Soccer Mom Approved posts. Thats my guess anyway.so be sure to be LOGGED OUT when you enter so you can enjoy all THE DEADZONE has to offer ( lol )
wot fun. That was my sixth attempt at rebuilding my Blotter Acid sheet. sure its lost some of the RoneyScope splendor the original had...but wot can you do...I'm dealing with crooked and creepy Raspberry freaks who go all the way when it comes to having their holly jolly ya ya's @ others expense. I have had suspicions that the powers that be have installed A BLOTTER filter to spare the dear readers the depravity of some twisted minds. Well better look inside your own state. "Mommy...whats a Dimebag?" The DEADZONE lucked out last month when the bitter fan in The GUMMOZONE decided to execute his fave bands lead guitarist ....on stage no less...for a region so dependent on music ..only in Ohio? Columbus isn't that far removed from The DEADZONE, its only 2 hours away. is it a weird coincidence that ol' Dimebag ate LEAD 24 years to the hour that John Lennon received his 4 bullets. Generation Mutilation now has their own poster boy for the fight against handguns...... and Chuck has another notch in his holster. Gawd Dam Vermin

Only the finish on the neck of his strat would start to crack because he left it on the floor under the bed during a deadzone winter............lonleyness is such a drag........................Any way he might head down to drug alley to get some microdot and take it at a world series of rock concert in his dreams as all semblence of utopia has left the deadzone. Matt the Cat's litter box got too full and the the new youth of Clevo has no clue. even an archiologist couldn't uncover shakedown street because no one passed on the culture throughout the flurry of Nancy's just say no campaign and blocks of ronny cheese dosed with experimental brain numbing chemicals that the CIA was experimenting with back in the late 80's.

Mr.Spock: “we’re above whats known as The DEAD ZONE sector , in the midwestern quadrant of the continent of North America Captain.”
Captain Kirk: “any sign of intelligence?”
Mr. Spock: “detecting signs of life captain. Seems highly unlikely due to the readings I’m receiving from the scanners."
Captain Kirk: “how so Spock?”
Mr. Spock: “scanners are showing e. coli in the water, polluted air and a dying lake. Surely the inhabitants are a suffering bunch. Highly illogical why a species would live under those conditions.”
Captain Kirk: “shields up Spock!! ... would the environment suggest a hostile mutant civilization?”
Mr. Spock: “possibly Captain...If logic were to prevail, definitely a twisted one. My sensors indicate a serious lack of natural sunlight. Should we take a closer look Captain?”
Captain Kirk: “ Nah. No need . Bridge to engine room ... Scotty... Warp 5....Spock, maintain shields, get us out of here, quickly.”
Scotty: “ Rite away Coptin’, I’m giving ‘er all shes got.”
Mr. Spock: “Hmmmm...hobbits”

Nice to say "gobble gabble gobble gabble " to the visiting spacecat dignitaries from dimension alimentarycanal x-g13-420. These timetripping illuminati send greetings back to the current deadzone from their perch in 2023. Gobi, zebra musssels, and of course, massive asian carp , are the lake bleary culinary species of choice. The perch, pike, bass, and all other initial indiginous species rendered extinct by the asian hordes in the year 2019. Erie changed to Bleary in the year 2020. Old news now.

A barberpole shipwreck of red, white, and green paint have replaced the staid and venerable wooden charm that served as the east Ninth Street entry point for sevnty odd years. Only in the deadzone is wood replaced with cheap paint. Hey rube! Wander in grab a drink and be amazed by the six dollar well shot you are served. Nostalgia?

" Why,if the man isn't raving, he is composing verses!" Horace. Seems the deadzone will need another poetry maven to replace Daniel Thompson. Who will this person be? Perhaps the spirits will conspire and deliver to us mortal denizens a worthy bard. Daniel's best work was in the promotion department. Calling on the politicos to reserve time to honor our local poetry rootstock. Langston Hughes, Hart Crane, D.A. Levy. Deadzonianpoets gone and not to be forgotten on Daniels watch. Daniel managed to have these same politicos appoint Daniel himself as our local poet laureate. A bit self serving in my humble opinion, though I do not profess to be or understand the mind set that produces poesy, or the complex persona of those who do so as an occupation. Some pretty twisted creatures lurk about disguised as poets. Enough said. Practice silence. " Curae leves loquuntur, ingentes stupent."

. Oh yes. I have left . If not my body or ashes would be surely laid or spread by some freeway by now (insert theme from DARK SHADOWS here) Haunted by the DEAD ZONE Say if I spent my formative years out west ( where I currently reside) I might have a better outlook on things rather than so ‘consumed by the very darkness of it all’ . Can you imagine not seeing the sun for 23 years? Since leaving the DEAD ZONE I have never tired of seeing the sun. I know its out there, unlike some places. Half of my life, 23 years of light deprivation and self medication. Succumb to the medias glorification of lets all become drinkers, smokers and raving alcoholics but look beautiful while imbibing. Watch Fred and Barney catching a smoke behind the house while Wilma and Betty do the wash ( in Ohio its pronounced ‘warsh’). Catch Liz and Burt having a nasty fight while pouring another drink. Lets not forget the toll taken by advanced forms of chemical rearrangement. Oh by the way, I wasn’t born in the DEAD ZONE (thank BOG) I’m originally from NYC. I remember getting off the plane at Clevo-Hopkins when I was 9 years old and saying “It smells”. I’m also aware that NYC kind of reeks (but its NYC) but the DEAD ZONE had a funk all of its own with a dreary name and a dreary (or should I say eerie) lake to boot. I’m easily influenced and taken by the power of words. “Cleveland?...Wot kind of f*cked up name is that? Land of Cleves? Wot are cleves? Is that some species of boll weevil or slug? Lake Erie....sounds freaking awful.” It’s the DEAD ZONES OWN. I don’t hate Clevo, I love the place. Maybe the bottom line in all of this is Clevo wuz just too small for me. I outgrew IT like an old pair of boots... Why the rant? The DEAD ZONE let me down.......real down. Paybacks are a b*tch. For those of you moanin and groanin and singin the blues, kick yerself in the yarbles “if you have any yarbles” and quit yer b*tchen and pack it up and leave. Its amazing how sunlight unencumbered by 5 or so cloud decks on a daily basis can chase yer blues away.

A season that appears more of a metaphor than reality above the mason-dixon.Not to confuse this deadzone with that deadzone. seems that the steel is a rollin' and the city stinks with the foul burning river profits of some isg gang.Tell ariel to fly over this gassy valley of steel belches and to do his best to turn the hillsides into gentle trout streams again. Water sprite, nocturnal flying phalanger. rocky the rodent. I know that springtime has reached the clevodeadzone by the appearance of earthworms in the fridge next to the magnum of bootleg cotton club hillbilly joose. hickup, good buddy, amherst podunk truckstop mayhem greets the season. nascar fuel fiends and lazy eyed autodidact portage path village idiot scholars are planted neck deep in the runny muck of the belching lethean streams of this feckless swamp. gimme a pigs foot pickled, a lemon soda, greasy greens, and hoecake. gone fishin everyday.

Righty right. Long time no speak ( or type).Been uninspired lately, Clevo isn’t exactly high on my list of inspirational places (Pyramid Lake 30 miles north of Reno, NV and Taos NM win hands down). Not a day goes by when I don’t thank the almighty or whoever it is UP THERE for escaping the Dead Zone. About the only two things the DEAD ZONE ever inspired in me was to leave it and start this rant. Been having furthur problems with my cat, shes getting old ( shes 13 and have been with her for 11) and between the hairballs and the puke and one outrageous vet bill, its enough to make someone a bit stressed. At least shes eating but it must be hard with periodontal disease and one fang. She can still STALK & KILL a pigeon or a magpie with the best of them though. Narrowed down the source of all the vomitus eruptus, shes been gorging herself on the bags of dry cat food . Speaking of birds, my strawberry blonde 21st century equivalent of Edie Sedgwick wants us to get married. ‘Peaches’ as I call her who instead of destroying her mind and body with drugs and fake tits , tears and tortures herself with the words of Sylvia Plath and Virginia Wolfe . Won’t these birds ever learn? But hey, it could be worse, much worse. I could live in THE DEAD ZONE

Hey Roney. Take it from this feller. Late September baseball in April. The local media hacks are giving the touristo advice to walk around downtown and look up at all the pwetty big buildings. Some sort of demented shared phallic vision. Downtown deadzone skyscapers a sour testament to ill planning and the inherent corrupt political types who have been brutalizing this snoozy half sized burgh for the entire length of its history.

In the old neighborhood the stanky oil soaked burning slag and hot ore rich river was the stench of paychecks spent on loud sausage and cheap pivo. Pilsner at that.Black label, p.o.c. , tip-top, standard brew. Topped off with the fourth districts favorite kingsbury run punch.Black Dallas Malt. Imported from Vega Avenue on the west side.Use sacred sweet waters, make beer and ale. get drunk, work in steel mill, fall asleep early, drink cheap whiskey, eat big lunch. fart under blankets, wake up with beershits,slow alcohol burn out of skin from working blast furnace. Go sucker fishing with gigs and quarter sticks.Get fired for drugs and stupidity. Get drunk more.Get job on westside on 25th street .Foundry work, 138 degrees on floor in summer.Drink at Potter's Cave. Fall down and sleep in alley.

In answer to your query as to what there is to do in this deadzone please obsorve the local custom of entering the deadzone half inebriated, stumble around sodden and half stupid, eat some greasy meats, choke a few bobbing heads, urinate upon that fellers statue on crock and stroll bull-e-vard,u get run over by derelict suv then return to exterior burb to perchance sleep once again in a local jailhouse.

The guy supposed to bat cleanup, parker brothers, or is it that other toy company.I just forget? Help me roney.This guy seems to have morphed again and is destined to be bound to the new york metropolitans I am fairly certain that the New York franchise will come out with the clean end of the stick.To think on this very spot where this feller sleeps his metalic sleep a venerable old fashioned dining car once perched. Now a triple a baseball franchise better suited up like their farmers up at niagra buffalodeadzone.. deadzone baseball franchies butchers up our national game resembling the beef they used to pack and carve near here on Bolivar Road. Dorsels was the dining cars operator , their sign read "foods prepared in butter" . When Dorsels left town an outrageous brightly colored repaint diner appeared in a psychedelic haze of canary yellow, absurdly bright pink with purple highlights and block letterings. Best part was that this whole magic gustatory bus was painted in the shape of the form of the human body it was monikered from LIPS. A late seventies pimped out twenty four hour version of heaven and hell combined.Both incarnations provided the rich graces of grease staining the perpetual hot guts of the legion of alcoholics who traded with them after closing time Now only my pathetic lonely metal statuary is left. Whats a feller to think these days ? speaking of lefties.Ted Williams is still hanging around, I hear from him once in awhile. They drive whats left of him up in those big white air conditioned trucks they unload behind this triple a tewn year old busherpalace.Been hooking him up to a robotic frame and letting him take batting practice. Says he can still see the seams spinning.Help, Leave money at the base of my metal form so I can get back to my iowa home.Hook me up with the fry baloney sandwhich.

I think Clevo has its priorities in the wrong order. Instead the city continues to moan about the media, the radio, a convention center, and a Queen ( or is she Cinderella) approximately.

ona different note. this is for my cat whos not feeling too well
Four people were bragging about how smart their cats are.
The first was an Engineer, the second an Accountant, the third was a Chemist, the fourth was a Government Worker.
To show off, the Engineer called to his cat, "T-square, do your stuff." T-square pranced over to a desk, took out some paper and a pen an drew a circle, a square, and a triangle.
Everyone agreed that was a pretty smart cat, but the Accountant said his cat could do better.
He called his cat and said, "Spreadsheet, do your stuff." Spreadsheet went out into the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He divided them into 4 equal piles of 3 cookies each.
Everyone agreed that was really good, but the Chemist said his cat could do better.
He called his cat and said, "Measure, do your stuff." Measure got up, picked up a 500 mL graduated cylinder, walked over to the fridge, took out a liter of milk, got a 300 mL glass from the cupboard, measured and poured exactly 275 mL of milk into the glass without spilling a drop.
Everyone agreed that was good too. Then the three men turned to the Government Worker and said, "What can your cat do?"
The Government Worker called to his cat and said, "Coffee Break, do your stuff."
Coffee Break jumped to his feet, ate the cookies, drank the milk, pooped on the paper, screwed the other three cats, claimed he injured his back while doing so, filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions, put in for Workers Comp, and went home on sick leave.

Just because I was a little curious I looked at our logs... at the moment we have recieved over 1800 of those hits from http://www.buzzflash.com/ which directly links to Larry's Kerry story. Thats only one of the sites sending traffic to that story.
Does it still seem so odd?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Webmaster - 3/19/2004 at 04:08 PM
Hey JohnnyRoney,
If you take a moment and think about the vast networking skills of political campaigners, I’m sure you will come to realize that this really isn’t so odd. The moment some of these political stores go online there are quite a few websites, email lists and other such networking tools that start driving quite a bit of extra traffic to that story and that story alone. In the current political climate… what with the upcoming election and all, I think you can probably accept that this isn’t really so odd. Were the story about something else… perhaps it would seem strange and Id be looking for a bug in my counter software. Another point would be this: Why would anyone really even bother to add thousands of “Reads” to one story? If I intended for people to inflate our numbers because I thought it would somehow make us look better or something, would I really choose one story out of the blue? No, If I wanted false numbers, I would probably be doing that throughout the site.
Just take some of the main words from the stories you see in the top ten: FCC, RIAA, pop-ups, Clear Channel, Kill Bill, American Splendor, Kerry etc… Now notice that some of those words have been pretty big issues over this short time period. Given the subjects, it’s really not so odd to think that people would invite people they know to read about those things.
If our most read story was about something as boring as chocolate ice cream, I too would find it odd that anyone would have read it that many times.

Does Johnny Roney take JOHNNYRONEY seriously? No. Does Johnny Roney take life seriously? Not on your f*cking life dood. Does Johnny Roney consider himself a writer? NO. Its just stream of consciousness warbling from a man with a bad back who can’t download music for free anymore so hes decided to fill some of his spare time dogging Cleveland. Does Johnny Roney take his forum seriously? No. Its silly, stoopid, surreal, and nonsensical Gobbledegook with a pinch of truth for the masses. It makes me laugh at times and I’ve tried to make it somewhat entertaining. In fact I wanted to stop posting but some people won’t let me. At times is Johnny Roney uninspired but writes his sh*te anyway? You better believe it ( thank Bog for the EDIT feature). Is there anything Johnny Roney takes seriously? Well I expect a “premier alternative newspaper” to present the facts and storys in an unbiased straightforward manner and be honest in its approach. I appreciate the chance to express my crazy outlook on the state of affairs when it comes to Clevo, and I can’t believe how many times its been read by the masses. 3000 + hits over the course of a 5 month period. Now heres the big question. Does the FREETIMES expect Johnny Roney (or any of its readers) to believe a story published yesterday (3.17.04) in its print and online editions has been read over 3000 times online in a 30 HOUR period? Is this like modern day ballot box stuffing by a person with an inflamed ego or wot? Wasn’t there a radio station infamous for this sort of behavior back in the 80's? Makes me wonder how many of the Freetimes Top Ten stories have actually been read by real people. Oh well “que sera sera”

I raise my pint of murphys irish stout. I can't imagine the DEAD ZONE void of alcohol, wot a nightmare ( if it isn’t one already) WAKE UP !!! it (The DEAD ZONE) drives people to drink if for no other reason than to escape from the shadow of the terminal tower. ( Holy f*ck I live here?) as Mr. Mojo Risin once said "this is The End" , might as well be ripped and out of it while walking a parapet and doing Nico in the arse ( she wasn’t BIG on vaginal sex).but the DEAD ZONE is not the city of angels .. it’s the city of politico creepy crawlies . Just be aware that your tax dollars are hard at work and God be Praised if the collective hangover the city will have in the mornin will provide some answer, some divine inspiration or wisdom on how to change things for the better. well... better keep dreaming. The DEAD ZONE has a terminal disease, they even erected a tower in honor of its cancer. Maybe Clevo should change its name to CANCERLAND...........

Todays blast from a metal fellers arse.An official name change from St. Patricks Day to drunkdeadzone day sponsered by the two bozos most likely to trip over their clumsy political tails, one "simp" cimperman and "yo-yo "jablonsky. The faster that these two are exposed as the shills they are and run out of this deadzone the better off we citizens will be. Seems that if they could have their collective way the entire downtown deadzone would be one big stinking designated deaddrunk and stupid destination for all the swells and pinheads that visit here from the burbs.Time has come to remove alcohol from this deadzone place, not encourage its conspicuous consumption as means to camoufloge the lack of any actual activity occuring here at all. Seems when the folk that visit the deadzone cork a few, they tend to forget that they really are nowhere at all. Reality is suspended and oblivion is pursued here.Stay tuned for a blast on the morrow johnnyroney.

Roneys passion for the Cleveland Podunk Whighole Sh*thole. (groans) I don't want to think about the DEAD ZONE. its depressing. Thats why I left 10 years ago, the place nearly killed me spiritually and physically. I hear they cancelled the St. Pattys day parade so the Gobbing shouldn't be so severe. really wish i could help, but theres nothing I can do, except turn a blind eye and stay silent ( like everyone else) . the DEAD ZONE will never wake up, its too immersed in the ways of old and refuses to change. as long as the DEAD ZONE holds on to a RACIST image of the Native American , the fat lady might as well sing her tune of dismay and repugnance as her gastro-intestinal flora swings with the breeze. Batter it up Boss? Theres a new restaurant on the west side , lets eat drink be merry, swallow a Zoloft or two and take a nice bath. The city is crumbling but we don’t care, no one cares. The big silent majority. Get up, stand up, stumble up to the pharmaceutical counter and partake in the ambience of AMBIEN (fave sleep aid of the current tenants of the White House and its administration). I read there sending some form of investigative body to Philly to get some ideas on how to save the DEAD ZONE. Philly is worse off. Heroin rules the day. Lets NOD to the beats of the day because this really sucks and its gettin real scarey lookin outside. Maybe the DEAD ZONE should take after South Africa , Mandrax ( QUAALUDES) is the hot ticket currently for everyone trying to see the twinkly lights. if nothing else helps you might consider heavy drinking. But whatever you do, DON'T TURN ON THE RADIO. "Questi Cazzi Di Piccione"- Frank Zappa from THE YELLOW SHARK (DZTFDM)

And the same exact phrase kicks right now concerning my mind covered in pigeon dander, a mere dirt encrusted metal statue that I currently reside within.Parked with my arthritic leg high and a kickin' just outside the jakehouse gate in downtown deadzone. Look me up and kick me in my metal nads when you visit the lousy american league baseball team this year. I spit peanut shells and mumble obscure iowa farmboy baseball anecdotes if you nip me in the right nad, just so. Whats a feller to do? How do I get back to iowa? Why am I doomed to listen to the hollow shouts of empty headed sports fans yet another year?Help me john roney, they will be spitting on me again this Saint Patricks day.Send help now!

Could at least have put a tractor near me instead of them lousy suv loving no good spoiled rotten cleveland baseball fans, walking past and ringing my metal nuts.Heard from sewer gods that cleveland indians are packing up and moving off to Buffalo in a major-minor franchise swap.

A malodorous blast emits from the high kicking metal buttocks of the Iowa farmboys statue. Assafoetida perhaps? Certainly not patchouli or asphalt? Our local baseball teams true mascot has been speaking from a new place these days. Muttering about springtime, aches and pains, sore back muscles. Can't quite make it down the stairs as easy. Gray all the time. Thinks some people named Topping or Webb stole the sun. A decade ago some lowlife politico creeps conspired to steal our taxes and build playgrounds for sports team megabuck owners in the dead zone . Such is how my sorry bullocks were delivered here in metal jacket. Help, let me out. I am prepared to move back to Iowa and leave this Native American burial ground forever. Cursed place.They never did pay me what I was wotrth anyways. Gave all the money to the likes of Rick Manning years later.What a bunch of baseball rubes around here. Think I will launch my gas attacks all season long .

Whoosh. The dust settles. Speaking of dust, on the front page of this website the weather forecast says “blowing widespread dust.” I vision tumbleweeds, smokestacks ,and eagles with deformed beaks mixed with Canadian soldiers (the bugs, who could forget them) and sedated office workers. Surely the Apocalypse is imminent. I’m not sure why I continue to write this forum since hardly anyone replies. My girlfriend wants me to keep on “keepin on” though I don’t see the point. I love Cleveland and I was trying to keep a positive outlook on things, even to the EXTREME of moving back, but that is not possible. Move back to what? Desolation. No jobs, no trash cans, no porta-potties(?!?!) The Gateway to the Northcoast where the main drag is an outdoor toilet. A city that believes (according to NCX) Michael Stanleys “Stagepass” is a better record than Jimi’s Electric Ladyland?!?!?. I’m sure Jimi himself would choke on his own vomit for a second time if he heard that one. What is wrong with you people? "Bog" forbid the town (northeast Ohio) should endure another earthquake. The slate and shale will crack and downtown will become the NorthCoast barrier reef. “Come visit The Lost City of Cleveland, Come ride The Aqua-Tube train, marvel at what once was.” I see Charlton Heston (or your least favorite politician) with the obligatory green scarf hanging by a rope from the top of the RnR museum being “pelted with rocks and garbage” by apes as Michael Stanleys mullet gets enshrined after a tour of supper clubs. The modern DJ’s tossing there ‘underground dance music’ records (techno is to the 00's wot disco wuz to the 70's)(techno - house - tribal - jungle - trip-hop or whatever ‘genre’ you wanna call it is about as underground as britney spears) into a bonfire trying to generate some heat while sampling Chucks screams for help into a loop which says TURNMEONDEADMAN. The buzzard finally placed in a rotisserie while The Not Ready for Decent Music DJ’s (mms glory crew) are crucified for their crimes (bad music) against the youth. Oh wot Bliss. What went wrong? What turned Cleveland into THE DEAD ZONE?
The DEAD ZONE TUNE FOR DECAYING MASSES this week is actually a whole cd. TORTURE GARDEN by Naked City ( John Zorn, Bill Frisell, Fred Frith, Joey Baron, Wayne Horvitz, Yamatsuka Eye) 42 tracks - 26 minutes a must own by any standard, though maybe not Michael’s.

As for the insipid, vapid, and puerile nature of the questions concerning that stinkin' old buzzard radio station Mister L.S. Namruk , let me remind you that the three former adjectives I used to describe your questions apply as well as to describing the content and flavor of wmms radio in it's supposed heyday. They did strive so low. I will let the immortal words of the former Zalba Meathooks , of Broadview Heights, Ohio serve as testimony. Zalba , who in a televised 1977 interview described experiencing listening to wmms as " a swampy brew of pseudo musical goo. Comprised as much of an ever so predictable self absorbed stream of odd jock patter and a weak supply of limp and wimpy rock and roll music as that it could easily pass as rock and roll muzak".Zalba's personal musical favorites were the biker boogie band found below the mason-dixon line , and a healthy respect for Charles Ives, Spike Jones, and Henry Mancini records.

Pay attention johnroney. Invoke the spirit of the bastard spawn of buzzard radio clan and be prepared for the tales of true human fleas. Existing anti gravity amid a fetid stew of hype, greed, payola baby, marching orders . A tale indeed of corporate scum mucking its way down the bloody burbank and new york vomit polar longitudes and poisoning the midwest yokels tiny brains with an assulting display of jersey shore sorry spore type of exotic brine from the sewers of asbury park. Ouch! Stinkin' up our radiowaves , selling the odor without the flavors.What was with that skanky corpse pickin' critter they used as a mascot? That bird was ripped off directly from a Kansas Jayhawk image that is as generic to Kansas as it is foriegn to Ohio.So what killed the buzzard? Exsessive onanism, necromancy, self sodomizing and felching.Crushed it's wmms entity into a fine powder. Perhaps the worst place to be on a Friday evening was in some checkout line forced to listen to the insidious weekly loser chant of "get down". People around here most have taken get down in quite a literal fashion. This dead zone sure did get down and stay down.Better we chant in unison "Great Googly Moogly" and practice the basic precepts of ernie anderson inspired existence. If that chant does not work, all wmms buzzards should reunite chanting the brilliant " gooble, gooble, gabble, gooble, sequence from the Tod Browning black and white film classic Freaks. Get down my buns ola.

Time is ticking away in the DEAD ZONE, as it is everywhere. But the DEAD ZONE is special because its going down. Not like how the Babes of Beachwood go down, but like how the Edmund Fitzgerald went down. The quiet dwindling inhabitants of the DEAD ZONE continue to eat their Prozac chips and Zoloft wafers accepting there fate under artificial light. Surely someone somewhere is saying “Great Googly Moogly!!! I gots’ta get my Mojo workin’ and get the f*ck outta this town!!!”

porta potties. The DEAD ZONE TUNE FOR DECAYING MASSES this week is pure nostalgia. Possibly the only consecutive 10 minutes of true free air on WMMS back in the DAY (that day ended somewhere in 1975) ( I remember consciously turning to the left end of the dial in 1980 or so to get away from the sh*te music of the station 'where music mostly sucked')(oh boy !!! Journey!!! Foreigner!!! STYX !!! any watered down Dylan or McCartney wanna-be or kid from Jersey)(consider Cocaine and Quaaludes were the drugs of choice at the time) But don't ask the DJ to play anything else , cuz he won't. Money money money. Snort snort snort. the DEAD ZONE TUNE FOR DECAYING MASSES is:
MAGGOT BRAIN by Funkadelic ( Eddie Hazel & George Clinton)
{spoken}
Mother earth is pregnant for the third time
for y'all have knocked her up
I have tasted the maggots in the mind of the universe
I was not offended
For I knew I had to rise above it all
or drown in my own sh*t.
my question, does the station still play it?

CLEVELAND - HOW BAD CAN IT REALLY SUCK? Man, I like that. I won't dwell on it though since I don't live there. ... now introducing a new feature of THE DEAD ZONE.
..each week I'll try ( I hate deadlines) to pick a song that makes me think of Cleveland. THE DEAD ZONE TUNE FOR DECAYING MASSES for this week is:
'LUNGFULL OF WATER' from the CD WEIRD LITTLE BOY ( John Zorn, MIke Patton, Mr.Bungle crew). Black Sabbath on (bad) acid is the only way to describe this gem of a song. Maybe a college radio station will play it if you request it. since Clevo is usually under some form of water it fits to a tee. I'm sure you'll agree.

Hello L.S. Entering the annual dwarf toss is a breeze. The ceremonial first dwarf will be tossed by the onomatopoeic mughul of mayhem, none other than one hervey pecker. The lighting of the cayuga river will be provide by those no good westsiders southside and brucie , who will torch an extra oil infused chevy corvette convertible and plunge into the brine near collision bend. Music is provided by michael "slovene" stanley and his pickup band of castoff mechanics and door to door rug peddlers. A fine time for all is promised, as with all deadzone offerings nothing is delivered. Who would have guessed that a self serving alternative press decided to elect one of their one as occidental man of the year? Stay tuned for more exiting adventures.

Is it really that bad there? I was just reading the cheap rental notices for big houses in Ohio City and concocted this whole fantasy about moving to Cleveland from L.A., but now I'm not so sure! We are musicians and can't earn a living here, and it would be awesome to have a big house with a basement to practice in for less than we pay for our crappy little apartment. How bad can it really suck? I grew up there but havent been back in many years, so clue me in before I do something stupid like rent a uhaul and go for it. Thanks, Misty

apples and oranges....mullets and rubberbands....shall the mullet be free to catch the wind or tied back to conform..... glad to hear Clevo (Shebwoolieville) has its own mullet store. I'll stick with shaving my head. its quite "liberating" to be honest. "here here" for the Shebwoolieville Supreme and the Whighole Delight but no pork, hold the cheese and heavy on the guacamole. bears in clevo? i thought all indigenous lifeforms native to the area were eradicated long ago.

Why are people so afraid of downtown? Yes it's gritty, old, and urine-soaked, but I percieve downtown as safe. Even with potential layoffs,(which I'm no longer clear on cause i've been hearing little spots on the news that city-union talks are proceeding with somewhat positive results) I still think the city to be safe. Perhaps it's because I haven't been to many other urban areas of the country, therefore i don't really know what a "safe" and "vibrant" city should look like. But I look at the city in nothing but a positive light. The 1990's brought all the big ticket projects downtown and though they were touted as the saving grace of the city, they didn't do **** besides zap us taxpayers of money that could have been used for far better purposes. But now we are seeing smaller infill projects that are slowly but surely changing the face of our city. Many residential projects sprouting up everywhere, the euclid corridor, expansion and renovation of many of our institutions around the city, and the reconstruction of the city schools. I know it's going to take many more years and alot more hard work to make a large impact, but so long as all of these things keep happening, i think the Cleveland of 10-20 years from now may actually be an attractive, vibrant city. The way i look at it is this: Rome 2000 years ago had one million people and was the center of the western world. It dwindled to relative obscurity for centuries until the start of the industrial revolution and today is a metropolis of 4 million. Cleveland just needs a revolution, and i'd say biotechnology and nanotechnology a few years down the road is our best bet.

Yes, it is getting bad. Hell, along with all the layoffs of police, firemen and EMS techs, they're even removing all the trash cans from the downtown area in order to save a few bucks!
It's too bad we can't build a casino downtown. If someone did, I know I'd be down there and I'm sure a lot of other folks would be, too. Lots of $$$ would come in! Oh well, probably won't see that in my lifetime!

I just spent a week in Cleveland and I couldn't believe what I saw. Euclid Ave has turned into Desolation Row ( all it needed was Cinderella playing electric violin On the corner of Ontario and Euclid). As I ventured towards Prospect FEAR gripped my soul as the thought of getting mugged (@9am?!?) literally crossed my mind. I immediately scrambled back towards Euclid and the Colonial Arcade. It was refreshing to see how ART has revitalized this little nook in THE DEAD ZONE ( I noticed the abstract ART depicting football players on the windows of the old Woolworths Bldg. and the ART on the boarded up entrances to the May Co Bldg) "BRAVO" I thought. Maybe the powers that be in Clevo should board up everything and let some artist go apesh*t painting everything in sight. It might help. Because from what I saw, some sort of PLAGUE has descended upon Cleveland. Inside the Colonial Arcade I saw the NUTMAN and inquired about the LAMPMAN whose shop/studio was closed. Maybe theres not enough nuts in this town who need lamps because surely someone needs to turn on the lights. I made my way to East 9th Street and ended up at the Old Erie Street book store. I related to the shopkeeper how SAD Clevo has become as he told me his tale of woe re: business and the lack of it. The store was stacked on all sides with books reaching the ceiling, but I guess people don't just read books anymore, they have to have there coffee too. The life and vitality downtown Cleveland had back in the 80's and early 90's is surely gone. Now its nothing more than a dying town which is quickly turning into THE DEAD ZONE p.s. lay off more police and WATCH it get worse Goodbye Cleveland -

Drain water into bathtub. soak potatoes (Cubed) and celery in bathtub. add gin, bloody mary mix and swizzle until well brined. Drain tub and scrape remaining contents into ozzy newsomes helmut.

Welcome to THE DEADZONE harhawgrockler ; “not having fun”? you better get used to IT...

Thats my guess anyway.so be sure to be LOGGED OUT when you enter so you can enjoy all THE DEADZONE has to offer ( lol )

That was my sixth attempt at rebuilding my Blotter Acid sheet. sure its lost some of the RoneyScope splendor the original had...but wot can you do...I'm dealing with crooked and creepy Raspberry freaks who go all the way when it comes to having their holly jolly ya ya's @ others expense. I have had suspicions that the powers that be have installed A BLOTTER filter to spare the dear readers the depravity of some twisted minds. Well better look inside your own state. "Mommy...whats a Dimebag?" The DEADZONE lucked out last month when the bitter fan in The GUMMOZONE decided to execute his fave bands lead guitarist ....on stage no less...for a region so dependent on music ..only in Ohio?

Only the finish on the neck of his strat would start to crack because he left it on the floor under the bed during a deadzone winter............lonleyness is such a drag........................Any way he might head down to drug alley to get some microdot and take it at a world series of rock concert in his dreams as all semblence of utopia has left the deadzone. Matt the Cat's litter box got too full and the the new youth of Clevo has no clue. even an archiologist couldn't uncover shakedown street because no one passed on the culture throughout the flurry of Nancy's just say no campaign and blocks of ronny cheese dosed with experimental brain numbing chemicals that the CIA was experimenting with back in the late 80's.

crawl creeping slither bellied fools. tarpaper hills await the chosen as they do the lemming waddle off into a meandering razor dawn. ah the memory of the goood years. plenty smokestacks, jobs, stinky, stanky clanging factory bells. smell of work is smell of eagle flying around with sammys dead prez papers stuck in the soft middle for amusement twist. yeh, nay , or just say what you durn well please has been the rule to date. why wake up a sleeping snake? deadzone takes long afternoon nap under a steel moon, slither off the face of appalachia. we be the north most point of the south. first foothills on the road to greenville pa. or is it meadville? erie? butler? beaver? trade up to the headwaters. return nature for natures sake. go team. shuffle off to some other kinda vision of a greener pasture. what did you say quickstraw? "gator got your granny, chomp, chomp.." raindrops are really tears of supreme joy from yet another dimension. let us mechanical units fortify our carbon based positions and continue to off gas until the future kats come back and pick us up at the saucer port.

here is the question for today. how did this deadzone place get roped and conned into a dedicated bus line running from downtown nowhere to university circle? does this project serve the interests of the deadzone clinic and university hospital/university circle? tell me how many citizens will ride this federal government sponsered rta administered taxi between the corporate hotels downtown and the various odd points east along euclid avenue? is this project a bad joke or what? can we power this sucker up and have it hop the tracks anti gravity fashion and perhaps take a left turn at 105th street and visit tarblooder territory on its way to lake erie and the zepplin port to be constructed ont lakeshore blvd behind the gwinn mansion to take all deadzoners across the pond to southern ontario, docking in the cheery port city of fort erie.

Captain Kirk: “where are we Spock?”
Mr.Spock: “we’re above whats known as The DEAD ZONE sector , in the midwestern quadrant of the continent of North America Captain.”
Captain Kirk: “any sign of intelligence?”
Mr. Spock: “detecting signs of life captain. Seems highly unlikely due to the readings I’m receiving from the scanners."
Captain Kirk: “how so Spock?”
Mr. Spock: “scanners are showing e. coli in the water, polluted air and a dying lake. Surely the inhabitants are a suffering bunch. Highly illogical why a species would live under those conditions.”
Captain Kirk: “shields up Spock!! ... would the environment suggest a hostile mutant civilization?”
Mr. Spock: “possibly Captain...If logic were to prevail, definitely a twisted one. My sensors indicate a serious lack of natural sunlight. Should we take a closer look Captain?”
Captain Kirk: “ Nah. No need . Bridge to engine room ... Scotty... Warp 5....Spock, maintain shields, get us out of here, quickly.”
Scotty: “ Rite away Coptin’, I’m giving ‘er all shes got.”
Mr. Spock: “Hmmmm...hobbits”
Captain Kirk : “what Spock?”

These timetripping illuminati send greetings back to the current deadzone from their perch in 2023. Gobi, zebra musssels, and of course, massive asian carp , are the lake bleary culinary species of choice.

" Why,if the man isn't raving, he is composing verses!" Horace. Seems the deadzone will need another poetry maven to replace Daniel Thompson. Who will this person be? Perhaps the spirits will conspire and deliver to us mortal denizens a worthy bard. Daniel's best work was in the promotion department. Calling on the politicos to reserve time to honor our local poetry rootstock. Langston Hughes, Hart Crane, D.A. Levy. Deadzonianpoets gone and not to be forgotten on Daniels watch. Daniel managed to have these same politicos appoint Daniel himself as our local poet laureate. A bit self serving in my humble opinion, though I do not profess to be or understand the mind set that produces poesy, or the complex persona of those who do so as an occupation. Some pretty twisted creatures lurk about disguised as poets. Enough said. Practice silence. " Curae leves loquuntur, ingentes stupent."

. Oh yes. I have left . If not my body or ashes would be surely laid or spread by some freeway by now (insert theme from DARK SHADOWS here) Haunted by the DEAD ZONE Say if I spent my formative years out west ( where I currently reside) I might have a better outlook on things rather than so ‘consumed by the very darkness of it all’ . Can you imagine not seeing the sun for 23 years? Since leaving the DEAD ZONE I have never tired of seeing the sun. I know its out there, unlike some places. Half of my life, 23 years of light deprivation and self medication. Succumb to the medias glorification of lets all become drinkers, smokers and raving alcoholics but look beautiful while imbibing. Watch Fred and Barney catching a smoke behind the house while Wilma and Betty do the wash ( in Ohio its pronounced ‘warsh’). Catch Liz and Burt having a nasty fight while pouring another drink. Lets not forget the toll taken by advanced forms of chemical rearrangement. Oh by the way, I wasn’t born in the DEAD ZONE (thank BOG) I’m originally from NYC. I remember getting off the plane at Clevo-Hopkins when I was 9 years old and saying “It smells”. I’m also aware that NYC kind of reeks (but its NYC) but the DEAD ZONE had a funk all of its own with a dreary name and a dreary (or should I say eerie) lake to boot. I’m easily influenced and taken by the power of words. “Cleveland?...Wot kind of f*cked up name is that? Land of Cleves? Wot are cleves? Is that some species of boll weevil or slug? Lake Erie....sounds freaking awful.” It’s the DEAD ZONES OWN. I don’t hate Clevo, I love the place. Maybe the bottom line in all of this is Clevo wuz just too small for me. I outgrew IT like an old pair of boots... Why the rant? The DEAD ZONE let me down.......real down. Paybacks are a b*tch. For those of you moanin and groanin and singin the blues, kick yerself in the yarbles “if you have any yarbles” and quit yer b*tchen and pack it up and leave. Its amazing how sunlight unencumbered by 5 or so cloud decks on a daily basis can chase yer blues away.

Righty right. Long time no speak ( or type).Been uninspired lately, Clevo isn’t exactly high on my list of inspirational places (Pyramid Lake 30 miles north of Reno, NV and Taos NM win hands down). Not a day goes by when I don’t thank the almighty or whoever it is UP THERE for escaping the Dead Zone. About the only two things the DEAD ZONE ever inspired in me was to leave it and start this rant. Been having furthur problems with my cat, shes getting old ( shes 13 and have been with her for 11) and between the hairballs and the puke and one outrageous vet bill, its enough to make someone a bit stressed. At least shes eating but it must be hard with periodontal disease and one fang. She can still STALK & KILL a pigeon or a magpie with the best of them though. Narrowed down the source of all the vomitus eruptus, shes been gorging herself on the bags of dry cat food . Speaking of birds, my strawberry blonde 21st century equivalent of Edie Sedgwick wants us to get married. ‘Peaches’ as I call her who instead of destroying her mind and body with drugs and fake tits , tears and tortures herself with the words of Sylvia Plath and Virginia Wolfe . Won’t these birds ever learn? But hey, it could be worse, much worse. I could live in THE DEAD ZONE

Hey Roney. Take it from this feller. Late September baseball in April. The local media hacks are giving the touristo advice to walk around downtown and look up at all the pwetty big buildings. Some sort of demented shared phallic vision. Downtown deadzone skyscapers a sour testament to ill planning and the inherent corrupt political types who have been brutalizing this snoozy half sized burgh for the entire length of its history.

Cayuga to you as well. Did you confuse ON LAND with DEAD UPON LAND. These sweet waters of the crooked north flowing river a fine cold brew of perfect oxygen rich waters. Sacred Native waters. In the old neighborhood the stanky oil soaked burning slag and hot ore rich river was the stench of paychecks spent on loud sausage and cheap pivo. Pilsner at that.Black label, p.o.c. , tip-top, standard brew. Topped off with the fourth districts favorite kingsbury run punch.Black Dallas Malt. Imported from Vega Avenue on the west side.Use sacred sweet waters, make beer and ale. get drunk, work in steel mill, fall asleep early, drink cheap whiskey, eat big lunch. fart under blankets, wake up with beershits,slow alcohol burn out of skin from working blast furnace. Go sucker fishing with gigs and quarter sticks.Get fired for drugs and stupidity. Get drunk more.Get job on westside on 25th street .Foundry work, 138 degrees on floor in summer.Drink at Potter's Cave. Fall down and sleep in alley.

so roney the tractor finally arrived. ticket to tokyo in hand. bikeman helped me get my metal act together and levitate around the deadzone awhile in his clandestine crop duster. hell this feller remembers chicago in 1940. no hitter and all. now we get together with honus wagner in front of pttsburg deadzone ballpark and talk old times. bikeman is going to sponser a country western fetish ball. should be a big hit down in amherst ohio. promises a daisy duke lookalike contest. no participants from broadview heights allowed to enter. send ideas. and you wonder what one does to ammuse oneself in the deadzone?

Listen here Rone as in telephone or hambone. this iowa tractor knows whats up. why just this morning a little past dawn , a dark clad figure was posted in front of my metal form, waving his arms towards the heavens, mumbling some honey-mouthed boney maroney peggy sue jive. could be a curious touristo , more likely than not a modern type of shaman hired by the iowa tractors american league baseball team to lift this long running curse. In answer to your query as to what there is to do in this deadzone please obsorve the local custom of entering the deadzone half inebriated, stumble around sodden and half stupid, eat some greasy meats, choke a few bobbing heads, urinate upon that fellers statue on crock and stroll bull-e-vard,u get run over by derelict suv then return to exterior burb to perchance sleep once again in a local jailhouse. The dear anoxiated cuyahooooooga riber can no longer catch anything mr. positive. It is just lconsidered a dereliction of duty to report such an anoxiated state of affairs as our local crooked politicians might tell you if they could muster the stench of their collective divergence.

She was ‘In The (dead) Zone’, maybe she couldn’t bear the thought of having to perform and be the talent less and naive tart that she is for the next 20 years before any chance of inclusion into the RnR museum . Would that make you sick? Jump ahead to 2025..... “Ooh ooh theirs Britneys soiled panties from the 2004 tour when she inadvertently snorted some fecal pellets which were haphazardly bought on E.9th street...the tour manager thought it was cocaine.” Next thing you know she’ll be hooking up with “America’s Sweetheart” and doing a remake of SISTER MORPHINE , all down and naughty with the tongue for a taste of the nasty popping and nodding in the loo

The guy supposed to bat cleanup, parker brothers, or is it that other toy company.I just forget? Help me roney.This guy seems to have morphed again and is destined to be bound to the new york metropolitans I am fairly certain that the New York franchise will come out with the clean end of the stick.To think on this very spot where this feller sleeps his metalic sleep a venerable old fashioned dining car once perched. Now a triple a baseball franchise better suited up like their farmers up at niagra buffalodeadzone.. deadzone baseball franchies butchers up our national game resembling the beef they used to pack and carve near here on Bolivar Road. Dorsels was the dining cars operator , their sign read "foods prepared in butter" . When Dorsels left town an outrageous brightly colored repaint diner appeared in a psychedelic haze of canary yellow, absurdly bright pink with purple highlights and block letterings. Best part was that this whole magic gustatory bus was painted in the shape of the form of the human body it was monikered from LIPS. A late seventies pimped out twenty four hour version of heaven and hell combined.Both incarnations provided the rich graces of grease staining the perpetual hot guts of the legion of alcoholics who traded with them after closing time Now only my pathetic lonely metal statuary is left. Whats a feller to think these days ? speaking of lefties.Ted Williams is still hanging around, I hear from him once in awhile. They drive whats left of him up in those big white air conditioned trucks they unload behind this triple a tewn year old busherpalace.Been hooking him up to a robotic frame and letting him take batting practice. Says he can still see the seams spinning.Help, Leave money at the base of my metal form so I can get back to my iowa home.Hook me up with the fry baloney sandwhich.

ona different note. this is for my cat whos not feeling too well
Four people were bragging about how smart their cats are.
The first was an Engineer, the second an Accountant, the third was a Chemist, the fourth was a Government Worker.
To show off, the Engineer called to his cat, "T-square, do your stuff." T-square pranced over to a desk, took out some paper and a pen an drew a circle, a square, and a triangle.
Everyone agreed that was a pretty smart cat, but the Accountant said his cat could do better.
He called his cat and said, "Spreadsheet, do your stuff." Spreadsheet went out into the kitchen and returned with a dozen cookies. He divided them into 4 equal piles of 3 cookies each.
Everyone agreed that was really good, but the Chemist said his cat could do better.
He called his cat and said, "Measure, do your stuff." Measure got up, picked up a 500 mL graduated cylinder, walked over to the fridge, took out a liter of milk, got a 300 mL glass from the cupboard, measured and poured exactly 275 mL of milk into the glass without spilling a drop.
Everyone agreed that was good too. Then the three men turned to the Government Worker and said, "What can your cat do?"
The Government Worker called to his cat and said, "Coffee Break, do your stuff."
Coffee Break jumped to his feet, ate the cookies, drank the milk, pooped on the paper, screwed the other three cats, claimed he injured his back while doing so, filed a grievance report for unsafe working conditions, put in for Workers Comp, and went home on sick leave.

Just because I was a little curious I looked at our logs... at the moment we have recieved over 1800 of those hits from http://www.buzzflash.com/ which directly links to Larry's Kerry story. Thats only one of the sites sending traffic to that story.
Does it still seem so odd?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Webmaster - 3/19/2004 at 04:08 PM
Hey JohnnyRoney,
If you take a moment and think about the vast networking skills of political campaigners, I’m sure you will come to realize that this really isn’t so odd. The moment some of these political stores go online there are quite a few websites, email lists and other such networking tools that start driving quite a bit of extra traffic to that story and that story alone. In the current political climate… what with the upcoming election and all, I think you can probably accept that this isn’t really so odd. Were the story about something else… perhaps it would seem strange and Id be looking for a bug in my counter software. Another point would be this: Why would anyone really even bother to add thousands of “Reads” to one story? If I intended for people to inflate our numbers because I thought it would somehow make us look better or something, would I really choose one story out of the blue? No, If I wanted false numbers, I would probably be doing that throughout the site.
Just take some of the main words from the stories you see in the top ten: FCC, RIAA, pop-ups, Clear Channel, Kill Bill, American Splendor, Kerry etc… Now notice that some of those words have been pretty big issues over this short time period. Given the subjects, it’s really not so odd to think that people would invite people they know to read about those things.
If our most read story was about something as boring as chocolate ice cream, I too would find it odd that anyone would have read it that many times.

Does Johnny Roney take JOHNNYRONEY seriously? No. Does Johnny Roney take life seriously? Not on your f*cking life dood. Does Johnny Roney consider himself a writer? NO. Its just stream of consciousness warbling from a man with a bad back who can’t download music for free anymore so hes decided to fill some of his spare time dogging Cleveland. Does Johnny Roney take his forum seriously? No. Its silly, stoopid, surreal, and nonsensical Gobbledegook with a pinch of truth for the masses. It makes me laugh at times and I’ve tried to make it somewhat entertaining. In fact I wanted to stop posting but some people won’t let me. At times is Johnny Roney uninspired but writes his sh*te anyway? You better believe it ( thank Bog for the EDIT feature). Is there anything Johnny Roney takes seriously? Well I expect a “premier alternative newspaper” to present the facts and storys in an unbiased straightforward manner and be honest in its approach. I appreciate the chance to express my crazy outlook on the state of affairs when it comes to Clevo, and I can’t believe how many times its been read by the masses. 3000 + hits over the course of a 5 month period. Now heres the big question. Does the FREETIMES expect Johnny Roney (or any of its readers) to believe a story published yesterday (3.17.04) in its print and online editions has been read over 3000 times online in a 30 HOUR period? Is this like modern day ballot box stuffing by a person with an inflamed ego or wot? Wasn’t there a radio station infamous for this sort of behavior back in the 80's? Makes me wonder how many of the Freetimes Top Ten stories have actually been read by real people. Oh well “que sera sera”

I raise my pint of murphys irish stout. I can't imagine the DEAD ZONE void of alcohol, wot a nightmare ( if it isn’t one already) WAKE UP !!! it (The DEAD ZONE) drives people to drink if for no other reason than to escape from the shadow of the terminal tower. ( Holy f*ck I live here?) as Mr. Mojo Risin once said "this is The End" , might as well be ripped and out of it while walking a parapet and doing Nico in the arse ( she wasn’t BIG on vaginal sex).but the DEAD ZONE is not the city of angels .. it’s the city of politico creepy crawlies . Just be aware that your tax dollars are hard at work and God be Praised if the collective hangover the city will have in the mornin will provide some answer, some divine inspiration or wisdom on how to change things for the better. well... better keep dreaming. The DEAD ZONE has a terminal disease, they even erected a tower in honor of its cancer. Maybe Clevo should change its name to CANCERLAND...........

Todays blast from a metal fellers arse.An official name change from St. Patricks Day to drunkdeadzone day sponsered by the two bozos most likely to trip over their clumsy political tails, one "simp" cimperman and "yo-yo "jablonsky. The faster that these two are exposed as the shills they are and run out of this deadzone the better off we citizens will be. Seems that if they could have their collective way the entire downtown deadzone would be one big stinking designated deaddrunk and stupid destination for all the swells and pinheads that visit here from the burbs.Time has come to remove alcohol from this deadzone place, not encourage its conspicuous consumption as means to camoufloge the lack of any actual activity occuring here at all. Seems when the folk that visit the deadzone cork a few, they tend to forget that they really are nowhere at all. Reality is suspended and oblivion is pursued here.Stay tuned for a blast on the morrow johnnyroney.

Roneys passion for the Cleveland Podunk Whighole Sh*thole. (groans) I don't want to think about the DEAD ZONE. its depressing. Thats why I left 10 years ago, the place nearly killed me spiritually and physically. I hear they cancelled the St. Pattys day parade so the Gobbing shouldn't be so severe. really wish i could help, but theres nothing I can do, except turn a blind eye and stay silent ( like everyone else) . the DEAD ZONE will never wake up, its too immersed in the ways of old and refuses to change. as long as the DEAD ZONE holds on to a RACIST image of the Native American , the fat lady might as well sing her tune of dismay and repugnance as her gastro-intestinal flora swings with the breeze. Batter it up Boss? Theres a new restaurant on the west side , lets eat drink be merry, swallow a Zoloft or two and take a nice bath. The city is crumbling but we don’t care, no one cares. The big silent majority. Get up, stand up, stumble up to the pharmaceutical counter and partake in the ambience of AMBIEN (fave sleep aid of the current tenants of the White House and its administration). I read there sending some form of investigative body to Philly to get some ideas on how to save the DEAD ZONE. Philly is worse off. Heroin rules the day. Lets NOD to the beats of the day because this really sucks and its gettin real scarey lookin outside. Maybe the DEAD ZONE should take after South Africa , Mandrax ( QUAALUDES) is the hot ticket currently for everyone trying to see the twinkly lights. if nothing else helps you might consider heavy drinking. But whatever you do, DON'T TURN ON THE RADIO. "Questi Cazzi Di Piccione"- Frank Zappa from THE YELLOW SHARK (DZTFDM)

Look me up and kick me in my metal nads when you visit the lousy american league baseball team this year. I spit peanut shells and mumble obscure iowa farmboy baseball anecdotes if you nip me in the right nad, just so. Whats a feller to do? How do I get back to iowa?

Could at least have put a tractor near me instead of them lousy suv loving no good spoiled rotten cleveland baseball fans, walking past and ringing my metal nuts.Heard from sewer gods that cleveland indians are packing up and moving off to Buffalo in a major-minor franchise swap.

A malodorous blast emits from the high kicking metal buttocks of the Iowa farmboys statue. Assafoetida perhaps? Certainly not patchouli or asphalt? Our local baseball teams true mascot has been speaking from a new place these days. Muttering about springtime, aches and pains, sore back muscles. Can't quite make it down the stairs as easy. Gray all the time. Thinks some people named Topping or Webb stole the sun. A decade ago some lowlife politico creeps conspired to steal our taxes and build playgrounds for sports team megabuck owners in the dead zone . Such is how my sorry bullocks were delivered here in metal jacket. Help, let me out. I am prepared to move back to Iowa and leave this Native American burial ground forever. Cursed place.They never did pay me what I was wotrth anyways. Gave all the money to the likes of Rick Manning years later.What a bunch of baseball rubes around here.

Whoosh. The dust settles. Speaking of dust, on the front page of this website the weather forecast says “blowing widespread dust.” I vision tumbleweeds, smokestacks ,and eagles with deformed beaks mixed with Canadian soldiers (the bugs, who could forget them) and sedated office workers. Surely the Apocalypse is imminent. I’m not sure why I continue to write this forum since hardly anyone replies. My girlfriend wants me to keep on “keepin on” though I don’t see the point. I love Cleveland and I was trying to keep a positive outlook on things, even to the EXTREME of moving back, but that is not possible. Move back to what? Desolation. No jobs, no trash cans, no porta-potties(?!?!) The Gateway to the Northcoast where the main drag is an outdoor toilet. A city that believes (according to NCX) Michael Stanleys “Stagepass” is a better record than Jimi’s Electric Ladyland?!?!?. I’m sure Jimi himself would choke on his own vomit for a second time if he heard that one. What is wrong with you people? "Bog" forbid the town (northeast Ohio) should endure another earthquake. The slate and shale will crack and downtown will become the NorthCoast barrier reef. “Come visit The Lost City of Cleveland, Come ride The Aqua-Tube train, marvel at what once was.” I see Charlton Heston (or your least favorite politician) with the obligatory green scarf hanging by a rope from the top of the RnR museum being “pelted with rocks and garbage” by apes as Michael Stanleys mullet gets enshrined after a tour of supper clubs. The modern DJ’s tossing there ‘underground dance music’ records (techno is to the 00's wot disco wuz to the 70's)(techno - house - tribal - jungle - trip-hop or whatever ‘genre’ you wanna call it is about as underground as britney spears) into a bonfire trying to generate some heat while sampling Chucks screams for help into a loop which says TURNMEONDEADMAN. The buzzard finally placed in a rotisserie while The Not Ready for Decent Music DJ’s (mms glory crew) are crucified for their crimes (bad music) against the youth. Oh wot Bliss. What went wrong? What turned Cleveland into THE DEAD ZONE?
The DEAD ZONE TUNE FOR DECAYING MASSES this week is actually a whole cd. TORTURE GARDEN by Naked City ( John Zorn, Bill Frisell, Fred Frith, Joey Baron, Wayne Horvitz, Yamatsuka Eye) 42 tracks - 26 minutes a must own by any standard, though maybe not Michael’s.

As for the insipid, vapid, and puerile nature of the questions concerning that stinkin' old buzzard radio station Mister L.S. Namruk , let me remind you that the three former adjectives I used to describe your questions apply as well as to describing the content and flavor of wmms radio in it's supposed heyday. They did strive so low. I will let the immortal words of the former Zalba Meathooks , of Broadview Heights, Ohio serve as testimony. Zalba , who in a televised 1977 interview described experiencing listening to wmms as " a swampy brew of pseudo musical goo. Comprised as much of an ever so predictable self absorbed stream of odd jock patter and a weak supply of limp and wimpy rock and roll music as that it could easily pass as rock and roll muzak".Zalba's personal musical favorites were the biker boogie band found below the mason-dixon line , and a healthy respect for Charles Ives, Spike Jones, and Henry Mancini records.

Pay attention johnroney. Invoke the spirit of the bastard spawn of buzzard radio clan and be prepared for the tales of true human fleas. Existing anti gravity amid a fetid stew of hype, greed, payola baby, marching orders . A tale indeed of corporate scum mucking its way down the bloody burbank and new york vomit polar longitudes and poisoning the midwest yokels tiny brains with an assulting display of jersey shore sorry spore type of exotic brine from the sewers of asbury park. Ouch! Stinkin' up our radiowaves , selling the odor without the flavors.What was with that skanky corpse pickin' critter they used as a mascot? That bird was ripped off directly from a Kansas Jayhawk image that is as generic to Kansas as it is foriegn to Ohio.So what killed the buzzard? Exsessive onanism, necromancy, self sodomizing and felching.Crushed it's wmms entity into a fine powder. Perhaps the worst place to be on a Friday evening was in some checkout line forced to listen to the insidious weekly loser chant of "get down". People around here most have taken get down in quite a literal fashion. This dead zone sure did get down and stay down.Better we chant in unison "Great Googly Moogly" and practice the basic precepts of ernie anderson inspired existence. If that chant does not work, all wmms buzzards should reunite chanting the brilliant " gooble, gooble, gabble, gooble, sequence from the Tod Browning black and white film classic Freaks. Get down my buns ola.

Time is ticking away in the DEAD ZONE, as it is everywhere. But the DEAD ZONE is special because its going down. Not like how the Babes of Beachwood go down, but like how the Edmund Fitzgerald went down. The quiet dwindling inhabitants of the DEAD ZONE continue to eat their Prozac chips and Zoloft wafers accepting there fate under artificial light. Surely someone somewhere is saying “Great Googly Moogly!!! I gots’ta get my Mojo workin’ and get the f*ck outta this town!!!”

Here’s a handy clock to figure out how much time you have left to either pack it up and leave the DEAD ZONE, or to just simply sit there and rot and receive the LAST JUDGMENT.

maggot brain may still be played on WNCsuX
yer right about how much sh**te is played on the right end of the radio band
all the boobs in the booth do is process playlists for the DECAYING MASSES

porta potties. The DEAD ZONE TUNE FOR DECAYING MASSES this week is pure nostalgia. Possibly the only consecutive 10 minutes of true free air on WMMS back in the DAY (that day ended somewhere in 1975) ( I remember consciously turning to the left end of the dial in 1980 or so to get away from the sh*te music of the station 'where music mostly sucked')(oh boy !!! Journey!!! Foreigner!!! STYX !!! any watered down Dylan or McCartney wanna-be or kid from Jersey)(consider Cocaine and Quaaludes were the drugs of choice at the time) But don't ask the DJ to play anything else , cuz he won't. Money money money. Snort snort snort. the DEAD ZONE TUNE FOR DECAYING MASSES is:
MAGGOT BRAIN by Funkadelic ( Eddie Hazel & George Clinton)
{spoken}
Mother earth is pregnant for the third time
for y'all have knocked her up
I have tasted the maggots in the mind of the universe
I was not offended
For I knew I had to rise above it all
or drown in my own sh*t.
my question, does the station still play it?

all is silent in the DEAD ZONE, even the furry animals (wombats) have retreated into their HOLES. Maybe everybody's WET. This weeks DEAD ZONE TUNE FOR DECAYING MASSES is:
the BBC Symphony Orchestra's performance of John Cage's silent symphony ' 4' 33" '. A good song to listen to when the oil tankers cruising up the Cuyahoga river at night blow there horns. this link should work, if not do a search....

CLEVELAND - HOW BAD CAN IT REALLY SUCK? Man, I like that. I won't dwell on it though since I don't live there. ... now introducing a new feature of THE DEAD ZONE.
..each week I'll try ( I hate deadlines) to pick a song that makes me think of Cleveland. THE DEAD ZONE TUNE FOR DECAYING MASSES for this week is:
'LUNGFULL OF WATER' from the CD WEIRD LITTLE BOY ( John Zorn, MIke Patton, Mr.Bungle crew). Black Sabbath on (bad) acid is the only way to describe this gem of a song. Maybe a college radio station will play it if you request it. since Clevo is usually under some form of water it fits to a tee. I'm sure you'll agree.

Hello L.S. Entering the annual dwarf toss is a breeze. The ceremonial first dwarf will be tossed by the onomatopoeic mughul of mayhem, none other than one hervey pecker. The lighting of the cayuga river will be provide by those no good westsiders southside and brucie , who will torch an extra oil infused chevy corvette convertible and plunge into the brine near collision bend. Music is provided by michael "slovene" stanley and his pickup band of castoff mechanics and door to door rug peddlers. A fine time for all is promised, as with all deadzone offerings nothing is delivered. Who would have guessed that a self serving alternative press decided to elect one of their one as occidental man of the year? Stay tuned for more exiting adventures. Rumour has it the "boss" will make a suprise apperance disguised as mikey the carpet peddler of late night teleyevision fame. Can't wait..

Hello Misty, Consider your Los Angeles residence a blessing. Basements in ohio city are not what they are cracked up to be. In facvt many of the westside basements and ohio city houses are just that.Cracked up that is. Better you remain in the city of lost angels As for your musical tendencies , please stay put. Enough folk attempt to earn twenty or thirty dollars and a can of saradines on weekend evenings in these parts. A large mashed [potato belt that exists south of ohiocity, near the quaint towns of broadview heights threatens to melt this spring, possibly flooding the westside with its contents.Stay put!

Is it really that bad there? I was just reading the cheap rental notices for big houses in Ohio City and concocted this whole fantasy about moving to Cleveland from L.A., but now I'm not so sure! We are musicians and can't earn a living here, and it would be awesome to have a big house with a basement to practice in for less than we pay for our crappy little apartment. How bad can it really suck? I grew up there but havent been back in many years, so clue me in before I do something stupid like rent a uhaul and go for it. Thanks, Misty

Greetings again from downtown sheb-ville. Just did see " Einstein disguised as Robin Hood" duck out of a bus headed north on Ontario Street an hour ago. He was babbling aloud the fat charecteristics of Lake Erie fish ,Sheepshead 5.2% , Carp are 5.9%, Suckers 1.8%. What does it all mean anyways? I do not have my recipe handy for Freshwater Drum Chow Mein. Are suckers sometimes mullets? Why does a beltway of solid mashed potatoes exist on the southern tip of Cayuga County? People living in Broadview Heights live up to their community name. The largest dwellers in whole big state of indiaohio live south of Wallings Road.Please advise? P.S. Can you help me locate a recipe for Carp Potatoe Salad?

apples and oranges....mullets and rubberbands....shall the mullet be free to catch the wind or tied back to conform..... glad to hear Clevo (Shebwoolieville) has its own mullet store. I'll stick with shaving my head. its quite "liberating" to be honest. "here here" for the Shebwoolieville Supreme and the Whighole Delight but no pork, hold the cheese and heavy on the guacamole. bears in clevo? i thought all indigenous lifeforms native to the area were eradicated long ago.

revolution? nano bio?? better include Clevo's own orbiting sun and biosphere which reaches 30,000 feet into the atmosphere and the Cuyahoga county line (at least W.117th on the west side and Coventry on the east end)(bordered by a main drag of your choice).

Why are people so afraid of downtown? Yes it's gritty, old, and urine-soaked, but I percieve downtown as safe. Even with potential layoffs,(which I'm no longer clear on cause i've been hearing little spots on the news that city-union talks are proceeding with somewhat positive results) I still think the city to be safe. Perhaps it's because I haven't been to many other urban areas of the country, therefore i don't really know what a "safe" and "vibrant" city should look like. But I look at the city in nothing but a positive light. The 1990's brought all the big ticket projects downtown and though they were touted as the saving grace of the city, they didn't do **** besides zap us taxpayers of money that could have been used for far better purposes. But now we are seeing smaller infill projects that are slowly but surely changing the face of our city. Many residential projects sprouting up everywhere, the euclid corridor, expansion and renovation of many of our institutions around the city, and the reconstruction of the city schools. I know it's going to take many more years and alot more hard work to make a large impact, but so long as all of these things keep happening, i think the Cleveland of 10-20 years from now may actually be an attractive, vibrant city. The way i look at it is this: Rome 2000 years ago had one million people and was the center of the western world. It dwindled to relative obscurity for centuries until the start of the industrial revolution and today is a metropolis of 4 million. Cleveland just needs a revolution, and i'd say biotechnology and nanotechnology a few years down the road is our best bet.

Yes, it is getting bad. Hell, along with all the layoffs of police, firemen and EMS techs, they're even removing all the trash cans from the downtown area in order to save a few bucks!
It's too bad we can't build a casino downtown. If someone did, I know I'd be down there and I'm sure a lot of other folks would be, too. Lots of $$$ would come in! Oh well, probably won't see that in my lifetime!

I just spent a week in Cleveland and I couldn't believe what I saw. Euclid Ave has turned into Desolation Row ( all it needed was Cinderella playing electric violin On the corner of Ontario and Euclid). As I ventured towards Prospect FEAR gripped my soul as the thought of getting mugged (@9am?!?) literally crossed my mind. I immediately scrambled back towards Euclid and the Colonial Arcade. It was refreshing to see how ART has revitalized this little nook in THE DEAD ZONE ( I noticed the abstract ART depicting football players on the windows of the old Woolworths Bldg. and the ART on the boarded up entrances to the May Co Bldg) "BRAVO" I thought. Maybe the powers that be in Clevo should board up everything and let some artist go apesh*t painting everything in sight. It might help. Because from what I saw, some sort of PLAGUE has descended upon Cleveland. Inside the Colonial Arcade I saw the NUTMAN and inquired about the LAMPMAN whose shop/studio was closed. Maybe theres not enough nuts in this town who need lamps because surely someone needs to turn on the lights. I made my way to East 9th Street and ended up at the Old Erie Street book store. I related to the shopkeeper how SAD Clevo has become as he told me his tale of woe re: business and the lack of it. The store was stacked on all sides with books reaching the ceiling, but I guess people don't just read books anymore, they have to have there coffee too. The life and vitality downtown Cleveland had back in the 80's and early 90's is surely gone. Now its nothing more than a dying town which is quickly turning into THE DEAD ZONE p.s. lay off more police and WATCH it get worse Goodbye Cleveland -
