Imported From Detroit

I didn't watch the Superbowl this year, but after seeing a few intriguing posts on Facebook I went to my computer in my little flat in England and YouTube'd this:


My reaction was to start cheering like an idiot at the top of my lungs. (I probably freaked out my flatmates.) That view, right there, is what I see when I drive home from the airport. That's what I see every time I drive to a Red Wings game at Joe Louis Arena. My neighbor works for Chrysler and my Dad drives one.

It's been a while since I've felt so proud of my hometown. It's not easy to make Detroit look good. Thank God, somebody did. As someone who really is imported from Detroit can tell you, that's no small feat.
