The Grand Trunk Warehouse. Located in Detroit's East Side; this gem will pack a nice surprise to anyone who doesn't do their research. To find that out, click here.
For those of you who come here with no interest in Detroit buildings; then here's a good story.
So we go to Johnny Shots on Friday for a few drinks. I was quite waxed and didn't pay any attention to what Christian was drinking. Well I guess he had a little too much; because on the van ride home he grabbed Lo Duca's hat and threw up in it. Then proceeded to turn to the side and throw up on Warriner & I.
Why didn't Christian just throw up in front of him? Your guess is as good as mine.
Brad / Lo Duca couldn't believe I didn't hit him in the mouth. Guess he got lucked out when he threw up on a happy drunk.

I recently went back to the Train Station and took some more pictures. They're nothing spectacular, but most people really like the train station; so here they are.

Apparently, getting updates to you ASAP means a week later. The Bears have already played another playoff game; but we went to the one last week versus the Seahawks.
Check the recap here.

The People's Outfitter Building - an abandoned department store / office space tower that is currently being demolished in favour of a parking garage.
Not exactly the most interesting building and I'll get you the Chicago update ASAP.

Everytime someone actually tells me they enjoy the Detroit portion of the site I get motivated to do an update. I have a couple of buildings photographed, but they're not the most exciting. Of the bunch; the most interesting story & pictures would probably be that of the Sybill Oil Inc. site.
Sybill Oil Inc. - a used oil recycling plant; now sitting dead in the Delray area of Detroit.
School starts next week, so I'll probably get Don & explore something more interesting soon enough.

New Year's Eve this year was spent at JC's in Puce. Even though I got a few other invites; it was the place to be.
It was pretty standard - played kings, popped some Splimante Bambino, kept it classy with St. Ides, saw some old friends (Seslija, Vasovski and Ingram) & probably missed a lot of excitement while watching the best of Will Ferrell - but I could care less; I enjoyed myself.
Around 2 o'clock; the party started to die down. When a few people left, someone threw in Love Actually. Whitfield, Warriner, JC & I all watched it. The highlight of that may be when the drunk as hell Warriner danced along with Hugh Grant to The Pointer Sisters' "Jump for My Love."
Damn we know how to party.

Another highlight was Ludwig in the morning.
"So last night, I think I'm going to be sweet and take some pictures of my dong with Debbie's camera. I wake up and realize that I better delete the 4 pictures of my dong. So I delete them one-by-one and get to a 5th; and think to myself, "wait a second that's Ingram's dong." Ingram beat me to the punch."
-Ludwig (Paraphrased Quote)How Ludwig knows what Ingram's wang looks like is something that I don't desire to determine.
Happy New Year Everybody.
Go Chiefs!
From ashy to classy,

Last week I headed to the La Salle area. My mom had to attend a meeting and we were going shopping after. I hate social situations; so I decided to take a walk instead of waiting through the meeting with her. While amongst the half million dollar houses; I found a forest and thought it would be a lot more fun to explore than suburbia. I ended up finding a sidewalk and followed it along through the bush...until, right before my eyes; two deer scared the living daylights out of me. I quickly snapped a picture and went about my business; as did they.

Why did I tell you this story? Well, because you can't just have an update of the right hand stuff.
Merry Christmas all.
