    I think the incinerator usually gets blamed.

    I was giving a walking tour downtown this moronic g and it was recognized at various locarions... Larned/Shelby, St Antoine/Congress, Randolph/Gratiot. All of downtown smells terrible. It is as clean as I have ever seen it, but it smells terrible!

    I've never been so insulted in all my life. My nose ring is still shaking and my hockey puck earlobes have loosened. Lol.

    That would be my guess. I've smelled it before and thought it was the incinerator, then realized wind direction was out of the Southwest. Any smell from the incinerator would have ended up in Warren. It did seem to be everywhere @ once.

    When I played ice hockey, my team's goalie indeed had the nose ring and the droopy earlobes. I can't believe that some team members thought it looked cool and followed his lead.

    We'll give them the benefit of the doubt: their choice was a post-concussion decision.

    Not fresh. But still smells better than New Orleans.
