2008, The year of the great election. The year a Black man was going to be finally elected President of the USA? HOLD ON THERE MISTER. Lets hold the election first. This was going to be the year of the first WOMEN PRESIDENT ALSO, OOPS!. Never decide an election until you count the last hanging chad , remember? I won't forget it and either will the last couple of Men running for Presidents, so lets just wait and see who's who. I have finally decided who I'm voting for its,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,none of your damn business!!!!
The City of Detroit makes me want to cry!, My favorite historical building is coming down and all we can talk about is who is the biggest crook in this town! I watched so many All-stars and Hall of Famers from so many seats, I can't begin to count them! I had two first basemen so pissed off I took them right out of there games, a very mad Baltimore Oriole-Eddie Murray, he tossed his glove at me, I was sitting along the fence line, right next to the visitors box. I was calling his name all game and by the 7th inning I finally got to him. Other players were offering me jerseys and stuff to leave, and leave him alone, it was greta, I was TIGER TRUE AS YOU COULD GET!!! Then was my greatest day as a Tiger fan ever! I had gotten tickets from one of my dad's bosses and they were the first ones next to the visitors box, the very first one!!! These were usually given to someone special, and he was a GM boss. I hated the TWINS, and the Tigers were starting to show signs of doing something back in the middle 80's. So I knew Kent Hrbek, and I hated his team so I went to work early on their power hitter. I called him by his wife's nickname "Herbie", I called him "Alan", his middle name, I called him a loser and everything else I could come up with. I had coaches telling me, "kid, you are gonna get it, your on his last nerve". I figured if I was on his last nerve, he wasn't thinking about the game!!! Si doubled my effort and it payed off, 3 strikeouts in a row, he was pissed off more than you could imagine, and by the end of the gane he was yelling at me, but never did he curse, he was a class act! But this was my town and my TIGERS!. aND HE KNEW IT, BOY DID HE KNOW IT!!!!

Very Happily married to my lovely wife Megan ! Suburbanite who believes that Detroit is my home!!! So I have a voice dedicated to the State of Michigan and the cites of Detroit and Hazel Park, so beware when you try and trample on either. I love politics and debating about politics with those people who want to discuss it without becoming STUPID ABOUT IT !! Love my family and those who love me back, and boy has that been an issue, hopefully we can work that out, somtime in the future. My dog's are my guidance and love of my life, one I have had for quite a few years and he would do anything for me, Jake. Half Border collie and half Austrian shepard, a true herder and loves to protect me from anyone or anything!! Then there is it!, He's the newbie. The Japanese Chin, Wilbur,he has his own agenda. But what a mind and so trainable it isnt even funny. The things he knows at 15 months is amazing. Oh sure we have a cat named Lucky also, 8 years old and about perfect, not mine , my daughters, but loves me , so it seems, for food only!!!
