before the storm, prelude to an exorcism

Storm sweeps through opening-night of Ingenuity - Cleveland Metro News – The Latest Breaking News, Photos and Stories from The Plain Dealer--Here's a picture of my goombah George Nemeth (hey, Goombah George, that has a ring to it!) and me right before the onset of the storm yesterday at the Ingenuity Festival. It was brief, it was violent, it was a huge surprise. It was almost as though the festival had created enough positive energy to exorcise whatever demons have been bedeviling this town these past few years, and they left indignant, but they left, and then the sun shone again as we prepared for the dawn of the new Golden Age, ingeniously.
