1) We have an "anti-bullying group" picketing at the state capital. Hmmm... bully those politicians into stopping bullying. At least it shows it's effective.
2) The same group pulls a teenage girl up front and says, "She's sick of being called short everyday. When will she be able to live a day without having someone call her short." I guess it won't be today.
3) People and buisnesses are fleeing Michigan due to poor economics and high taxes. Therefore the budget is about to go belly-up. The governors solution? Raise taxes on buisnesses. Oh good, now I can stay.
4) Because people have less money public transit is being used more. Therefore, we need more buses and routes. How is our city government proposing we do this? That's right... raise taxes on riders. Time to buy that horse.
5) As reported by loyal reader Zimmerfly...
ESPN does a yearly ranking for every professional sports team and they rank them 1 through 122 (NBA, NHL, MLB, NFL) based on things like bang for your buck, championship possiblities, fan relations, players, coaches, staduiums, etc. Detroit has 3 of the top 18 ranked teams in the country (far and away the most of any city in America):
Detroit Pistons #5
Detroit Tigers #12
Detroit Red Wings #18
But coming in #122, the worst rated organization in American professional sports is ......... you guessed it, the DETROIT LIONS. Way to go Lions you are truly the best at something. To bad that something is sucking.
