Nope, this summer I have just looked at it and laughed, knowing it's not going to hang around. I hope we dont get a blizzard this year! As it seems like right weather for one!

Nothing to disagree about Guido...as you grew up there I would expect you to know more of what the deal is for how much longer it's been happening. I'm an outsider looking in and that's just what I've seen since the late '80's. The road to recovery is a long one, but it's definitley doable!!
Good morning Metalheads

I've been traveling to and from Detroit since '88. There's been a lot of changes since then with the Pistons winning in the late 80's then moving to Auburn Hills, steel mills closing and we all are aware of the auto ind. problems and lets not forget the last mayor (ugh)!! But in all fairness, there are a lot of folks that have never given up and have stayed and slowly it's trying really hard to make the necessary changes...but just as it didn't get that way over night, it's not gonna change over night either. I really hope things change as it can be a beautiful city with wonderful arcitecture and landscapes. Anyone who wants a taste of Detroits fashionable history can walk through the convention center and read the captions to all the many pics hanging on the walls and the statues and things preserved for viewing...

Detroit has a REALLY sad neighborhood right by a rescue place that is basically where the homeless set up. Thousands, literally. I never showed it to DF but that is why it pissed the hell out of me when some uppity bastard thrashes the RedWings for having "empty seats" in "Hockeytown." What a bunch of bull. I LOVED Bongwater who said that he loved hockey but we just can't get it here. Right on! Someone with half a brain who understands the situation. Imagine living in the street or, at best, a TENT!
Look, to cut a long story short, look at the way they ran the freeways. NO exits to the suburbs but right out to where the big car-makers made their homes. Read the Autobiography of Malcolm X! Talks all about it the overt racism and what it did to the inner city.
It IS getting better, though. I love the city and will defend it to the death. It IS Hockeytown, USA even if people can't afford tickets. Ignorant dolt, anyone who could think otherwise. Never been here.

I'm not sure what happened to Detroit, but it was once a mighty city with a lot to offer. I can't believe it all is a result of the auto industry as there's so much more there than just that...it's a truly sad situation that's been getting worse (if possible) rather than better...

Well, you really remind me of a high school buddy of mine I call "Poncho" (real name David Ponce) and you kind'a look like him too. He's a metalhead who likes to travel as well, but he lives here next to Chicago as I do...but still he goes. I don't think I ever heard the story of why you left Detroit, but as I've been there quite often over the years I can imagine why (though I could be wrong), but why Tennessee?? It doesn't seem to fit your personality at all...

We came to the street where she worked and she said her workmates didn't know we were twins, so I wandered in to the store and was staring at the menu above the counter. The girl behind the counter was looking at me like WTF, you work here! LOL that was kinda funny.

They moved to this area to stay temporaliy with a couple of "friends" and the friends turned them out quickly as they didn't get jobs off the bat.

It is! But Zella is like me, big hearted and wanting to do the right thing. She shuffled for the past three weeks to find this family a place to stay each night since their unfortunate circumstance. Now they both have jobs in the area and will both be ok along with their kids. Zella is a woman I admire so very much.

They moved to this area to stay temporaliy with a couple of "friends" and the friends turned them out quickly as they didn't get jobs off the bat. Had CASE not helped them they would have been homeless. But due to Zella stepping in and helping them they will have an apartment at the beginng of next week and My facility hired Moma and the Dad already has a job.

That's harsh of that so called 'friend' to turf them out when they didn't get jobs straight away - it's hard at the moment to find any work! Thank goodness for CASE by the sounds of it! I love hearing happy endings

Spa, it was how many of them there were that shocked me. None of them asked me for anything, I got the feeling that they've already accepted defeat and were just waiting for it to end. I know that sounds weird, but that's the impression I got...they looked defeated!!

I've been to southern Cal several times and enjoyed myself (except when I was in boot camp lol), not sure about northern Cal, but as long as I could make a stop in the Napa Valley area, I think it would be a cool place to visit sometime!!!

Never been there! Hear they have fabulous hot springs! You know the Greenbrier in WV has awesome hot springs and housed a presidental bunker in it until 1992 when they closed it. That is how we know about it now, but I knew before they revealed it because out country club manager was a waiter years ago in the Greenbrier.
