If I had a personal website, the "stop the killing" billboard would be at the top of the main page. I mean, my masthead couldn't be "DRUDGE REPORT" because I'm not Matt Drudge. So, I'd have to come up with something else.

The latter is heavily favored by all the chowdah-eaters I know, especially those I met in my undergrad days at the University of Michigan. |

Agreed.
My votes for Prettiest go to Ann Arbor, Traverse City, Holland and probably Marquette situated right on the lake in the U.P.
Grand Rapids is coming up and a great city too but it's not on my top 3 for prettiest cities. |

It seems to me that often happened so that servants could live near by, but not too close ... |

It's unfortunate but I'd have to agree that Flint is pretty ugly. Parts of Pontiac give it a run for it's money but... Eh, who are we kidding, there's a few in my opinion. Sad.
