The government of the city of Detroit is acting pissy over the Consent Decree offered up by the Governor. They don't like the conditions. This is a city that has had historic problems with the finances and with playing nice with the suburban neighbors. Detroit also has major problems with the crime, the graft and corruption, and "not a whole lot of people want to live there". So now they are broke. And they do not like the help the Governor has offered to help get their sorry asses out of this mess.
The elected officials of Detroit want to dictate the terms of how they will accept help. WTF? This is crazy, the feds are all this area and you want people to give you money? Why? Detroit has proven they cannot budget their money. They ruined Belle Isle, they almost destroyed Cobo Hall and the Detroit Public Lighting Department does not turn on any streetlights.
Here is my solution. Go to court and declare bankruptcy and pray Obama comes and bails your ass out. Because if we the people have to pay your bills and watch you act the fool, then I want the people in all the other 49 states paying for the mess along with the tired people of Michigan. If my tax dollars can rebuild houses in California coastal areas every year, those suckers can help bail out Detroit.
Detroiters made their beds and now they have to sleep in that sloppy mess. They elected Dave Bing, Mr. I can't make a decision or find my ass with both hands. They elected Kwame twice and are still buying his book. They elected Martha Reeves who can't even sing anymore. They elected Monica Conyers and now she is in prison.
I am hoping the citizens of Michigan put their feet down and refuse to allow Detroit to let this sorry situation continue.

So You Had A Bad Day
Yep. Do not want to discuss the medical appointments. They were not fun.
Every time I see the news on the H1N1 virus I think Hiney flu. How is it better to have a Hiney flu than a Swine flu.
Yesterday I heard on the news that the Detroit/Windsor border had a confirmed case of TB involving a toll collector. It was deemed not a problem for travelers. What? The person gives you money and receipts that you keep in your car, wallet, purse, Daytimer and this is not a problem.
They are talking about moving the Auto Show to Oakland County and now Monica Conyers is bitching that she should still be City Council Prez even tho Kenny is coming back. Yeah, right.

Writer's block overcome
Had a hard time this week putting something in writing. Started a few things and they just weren't right. Now I know why. I need stimulation that makes me laugh. And I have been laughing my ass off since yesterday. Where to start, the Detroit City Council or the Obama DVD gifting. Oh, and lets not forget the New Orleans City Council and Mayor's office.
The funniest has just got to be the special session called last night by Monica Conyers for the Council. The video on WXYZ.com is hilarious. Barbara Rose Collins droned on and on about God knows what. None of this drivel made sense. Then she accused L. Brooks Patterson of setting a bus on fire and calling her a monkey.. . .this is a woman who wore a tiara to a council meeting because it was her birthday. I don't remember if she had money pinned to her blouse. Then she stated that she had not taken her pain meds that day so she would make sense. Then she started singing. Yes, singing. Onward Christian Soldiers. And she forgot the words. WTF. To be fair, L. Brooks did respond the only thing he wanted to steal from Detroit was the Fist and Ms. Collins tiara. Gotta Love Detroit.
Now, on to the DVD's. What was he thinking? Movies? Just regular movies? I think we should all send President Obama a DVD of our favorite movie. I will send him my copy of United Flight 93. I never been able to bring myself to watch it.
New Orleans, people-people, just call the Detroit Free Press attorneys and find out how to get the emails, ya'll don't need to re-invent the wheel. We did all that and our mayor went to jail. And maybe, unless Obama tells the U.S. Attorney office to back off, so will the City Council.
Okay lets sum up:
Obama-Stock Market means nothing/DVDs mean I am your friend.
Detroit City Council-Pain meds means I won't make sense/singing means.....
New Orleans-Just get Brad Pitt to produce a reality show of City Council meetings.

Only 21 Days
This is how I think, in Michigan, (Detroit) after March 15th you can deal with anything. 4 feet of snow only lasts for 48 hours. Ice storm, 12 hours. Assholes, 12 minutes.
Today was again brutal, tomorrow projected to be brutal and then we will warm up to freezing. 32 degrees F. I can hardly wait.
Monica Conyers does not want the new Cobo Hall deal, well Monica go ahead and make this not work. And then I will try to get everyone in Michigan to let Detroit die. Cause guess what. We just don't care anymore and ya'll need to get your own shit together.
Carlita Kilpatrick is very happy in nilly-vanilly tony Texas suburb. Well WTF.
Two-Penny Jenny wants all the money the other Govenors are turning down. Why are they turning this money down- and why does Jenny want it -and the new laws that must be enacted to accept this money? Maybe cause Jenny is out of here and she does not care what chaos she leaves behind. Fie on you Jenny.
I still need to show my new shoes. Maybe next blog.

Nancy Pelosi is pissing me off
Okay, I don't believe most of what I read, but someone tell me if it is true that Nancy and Obama's vacations plans drove the voting on the "Lets give a lot of money to people with no training to handle the (money) stimulus plan (and by the way they don't need to read the plan) real quick so we can go on our little trips. Trips that cost the US taxpayers mucho dollars in keeping these people from brushing shoulders with us regular folks. Obama, okay I don't want him at Detroit Metro-too much confusion. Nancy, if she doesn't pose with the lip pout would anyone notice she is there except for Anderson Cooper. And he might be busy that day.
Every time I look at the television, Internet, or the old fashioned newspaper I see this woman posing in a manner that indicates to me she thinks she is Demi Moore. I don't know why but I think Demi Moore. Coco Chanel wore pearls but she never played to the balcony. Coco had respect for herself. Never pouted her lips for likes of the ....well let us not go there.
This gets worse, Mitch Albom is thinking like I am according to what I read in the Detroit Free Press, where does Kwame Kilpatrick's mom, a US Congresswoman get the money and-just call it a pair-to send her little boy to Dallas on a private plane on a government salary. And in my opinion why isn't his wife working. I very rarely agree with Mitch Albom.
Weird new of the day, reports from some GREEN scientist reporting in Chicago, Global Climate Change is occurring because China and India are growing their economies and may use more coal. They will be warm and make cars, while we will freeze and somehow the rain forests will burn with no conversation on the fact that the rain forests are being cut down for money for the exotic wood. WTF.
So I say we should get Nancy, Demi, Mitch, Obama, Kwame, and don't forget New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, and Detroit City Council president Monica Conyers and see if Detroit Councilwoman Martha Reeves (elected because she could sing in the old days) can identify who is who. Martha Reeves is pulled into this mess because she did not know that Tiger Stadium was being torn down-she is really up on local issues. That is the sad state of affairs in our country right now. Nobody leading nobody in Motown and Nancy pursing her lips in photo ops with scarlet lipstick. WTF.

Politics and Cars and Comics
All my contact with the outside world this week is newspapers and what a wealth of hilarity. Love the Internet versions for the really, really stupid blogs that follow the stories.
Favorite stories: Kwame flying in a private plane to tony nilla-vanilla Dallas suburb for a job interview in a "foreign" car from mama's house in Detroit, Monica Conyers paying attorneys from her campaign fund to find out if a Federal Investigation may hurt her re-election campaign, Two Penny Jenny wants to put a windmill farm in the wind-less hood, and the best for last-tada...Sidney Torres in New Orleans paying garbage men to spray paint garbage they are not supposed to pick-up. Can it get better than this?
Let us break this down in more manageable bites.
Who was in the meeting when the decision was made that news coverage of the former mayor (who seems to be the target of ANOTHER Federal Investigation) being released from jail should portray him and mama as insensitive spendthrift narcissists. A Hyundai is bad enough, but a private plane from a man who owes a million bucks to Detroit? From a Navigator to a Hyundai-maybe Al Gore is going to hire him to help Jenny set up a windmill farm in Dallas.
Monica, if you have to ask lawyers if a federal investigation will hurt your chances of re-election in Detroit-the answer is free from me. Not in Detroit. You and John rule. Until the Feds put you in jail you will always have a place in the heart of Detroiters.
Jenny, just stop. We are freezing here in the Motor City and you want us to heat, light and charge up the car with windmills? WINDMILLS. Lady, with this amount of record breaking snowfall if I do not have 12 foot drifts there is no wind. None, nada, not happenin. Look outside the tinted windows, roll them down-there is a button on the switch plate on the door trim panel for this-there is no wind.
And yes even New Orleans has an automotive connection. In the City Council Debate over the trash contract the council debated the fact that the residents had a Cadillac, got a Camry and wanted a Lexus or a Jaguar. WTF. Tell me how these automobiles are connected and what they have to do with trash? Detroit versus Georgetown, Japan versus India. Motown excellence versus Derby middle of the pack? The Karate Kid versus Slumdog Millionaire? And just what city spray paints garbage that is not supposed to be picked up? What is wrong with you people? This is a simple fix, you either put a bunch of lackadaisical people on the public payroll, you contract a private firm to pick up all the trash or you make everyone take their own trash to a dump. And you charge according to whatever method is decided upon to work for the city. Period. There is no more discussion. Millions of people do this and it works. Quit trying to re-invent the wheel.
Well I guess I should be grateful I don't need to climb into my Hyundai or Lexus (never, never, never-remember the USS Arizona) to climb my 12 foot high snowdrift (nil, nada, nothing) to apply at the windmill company that will be built on the urban decay that Monica is in charge of. If she is not indicted. Wonder what her highly paid attorneys said.
Oh yea, where is Frazz in the Freep.
