    I still play my "Garwood Anthem" song about every day. One of these days, maybe I'll take the time to learn "Hoover is a Mover", so I can perform it live. It seems like a fun song too.

    I can vouch for Hamtramck. I live there. A big plus is that they have their own police force and they respond in minutes.

    Message wise, the statue is right. If you give money to a begger, you give money to Christ. Christ as metaphor for all the oppressed. Nothing is simpler than that.

    And as for whether Christ...

    I hate to say anything negative about them, but they are not very practical people.

    Good schools, good police, safe neighborhoods. That's the main thing needed for more than pioneers to move in.

    They put bike lines on St Aubin last year. But I never use them. It's better to cut into the subdivisions. There are few houses and it is like riding in the country.

    Go hang out at Lo & Behold records in Hamtramck and talk to Ricky the owner. If the store is open, he is there. He sells old 45' and is very knowledable, if you want to talk about artists no one...

    Maybe the only reason anything is left at all is because the churches stayed as long as they could. [[I know this is an overstatement, but maybe one with a hint of truth in it.)

    >>I still maintain that no one does "crime for crime's sake".

    Sometimes teenagers do "thrill crimes", or just do it because they are bored, or to impress each other.

    The house with the driveway on the side looks older than the surrounding houses. To me, it always looked like an original farm house our something. I know it's hard to tell. It's plain, and the...

    Where is Loui's?

    I ate at Buddies last weekend. They made me wait so long before they even brought me a menu, I ordered a Salad because I didn't want to wait any longer.

    I don't see the alley. But Hamtramck is layed out the old fashioned, ribbon farm way, at a 90% degree angle from the River. Around the edge, and even intruding a bit are streets laild out in the...
