When in Detroit go to Greek Town have a good look around, take People Mover to the Renaissance Center, go to the A-level to GM World and look at the cars. If a woman pops out from nowhere screaming 'Org Invasion Everybody Run!', that's me. biggrin

If I were in Detroit Stymie, I'd take you to dinner at Joe Muir's or somewhere in Greektown..

Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections... unknown
