They're closing the aquarium on Belle Isle!
I just heard this news yesterday. Detroit has got to be the most screwed up city on the planet. Very upsetting. First the Belle Isle Zoo and now this.

1. I'm not surprised.
Some day they'll actually elect a decent mayor. Actually, I liked Archer, but Coleman and Kwame were both huge mistakes. There has to be someone better to run against Kwame this time. He's a joke.

3. Absolutely!
As if I believe his story about the SUV. He got caught and now he's trying to get the chief of police to take the fall. I don't believe a word of it. He's just a disaster. You gotta wonder sometimes how certain people get elected (it goes way beyond *.)

5. I thought they were going to start charging admission to the island
$1 a car or something like that. Wouldn't that raise enough money to keep things like the aquarium open? And I thought they were planning on reopening the zoo.

4. All In Preparation For Selling The Island to Developers and The N.S.A....!

The Bush government intelligence agencies
desire a major border security and observation
installation on this strategically placed island for
the purpose of tracking and intercepting small boat smugglers
crossing over from Canada between Lake Huron and Lake Erie.
