Housing
It's kind of astounding how bad the housing market is right now...Being home on holiday, I saw an 8-bedroom mansion in a nice gated community in Flint going for $90,000. I saw a nice 2-bedroom home on the edge of the ghetto in Flint for $10,000. No improvements needed.

Milk

My holiday
This was the second year of my tradition of staying in New York for Thanksgiving...it's really less of a tradition than a necessity, since I would rather spread out the time I spend in Detroit and save my money.
