If I wanted to see five hundred million Muslims I'd go to France. But I don't. So I won't.
Dearborn is closer.

In today's news:

"First stink bug detected in Michigan in 2010
It was accidentally brought to North America from Asia in 1996. It was first detected in Michigan in 2010 and is now a major pest for farmers.

Stink bugs have been since been found in all Michigan counties but is well established in the southern part of the Lower Peninsula."

"The good news is stink bugs will not cause structural damage or reproduce in homes. They also do not bite people or pets.

They are not known to transmit disease or cause physical harm ..."

They’re here. Stink bugs. Crawling out of their hiding spaces and into view. Ugh.

You'd think our winter would 86 stink bugs. That would be fair.

I was reading some information released by the North Korean Government about their supreme leader Kim Jong Un.
Apparently he does not have to use the bathroom like mortals. He could drive a car at age 3

During the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, it came to light that the North Korean supporters were not genuinely from North Korea. Given the well-known travel restrictions for North Koreans, one wonders how they managed to assemble thousands of cheering fans at the games.  According to reports, it seems that thousands of Chinese actors were recruited and paid to attend football games in order to support North Korea.

North Korea also has it's own time zone and calendar - it's year 112 - time began the year Kim il Sun was born.

I like the 454 engine when available.

That's what I had in my '71 Vette.

Money well spent.

Excellent torque.

And, in Texas too with virtually no speed enforcement on interstates.
