It has come to my attention that I may have been a little less than charitable in my previous posts. Apparently I've painted my beloved Detroit as some sort of post-industrial Land of Wind and Ghosts where itinerant farmers scratch out a living amongst the bones of the auto industry, and my admittedly less than beloved hometown as a meth addled Gothic horror fairyland peopled by unemployed simpletons and radioactive zombie cows. While I suppose there's an element of truth in each statement, and I'll let you, gentle readers, winkle out the truth of both, it's not all starving packs of urban coyotes and babbling madwomen. So, to make up for my vicious slander, please enjoy the following links describing some of the best things to be found in each city.

Mea culpa. Mea culpa. Mea maxima culpa.

Just saw your blog via RPG Blog II and noticed you're from Detroit. I'm in Royal Oak and just wanted to say hello to a fellow Michigan gamer. I'll be checking out your blog regularly now :)
(oh, btw, I run d20pfsrd.com, a Pathfinder SRD site... not sure if you are into Pathfinder at all or not)
There was nothing wrong with our previous post. But thanks for the links. Even though you tell about the cool stuff you find in my home town, I still overlook this stuff.
