my kind of guy

[Turbo Indian]

Check this guy out - he's building a 150x40 garage, and his neighbors aren't too happy about it. I wouldn't mind having a garage like that myself, but it would probably be filled with junk within six months...

It's an article from the Detroit Free Press.

It's because he lives in Troy a.k.a. Snobsville, MI. That place sucks, their mall has a dress code.

A dress code in a mall? Please tell me you're kidding. That's just way to snobby, and BEGGING for a dozen or so GN's burning out in the parking lot.

best quote in the article:

"You know, if my wife tells me to go out to the doghouse, it's not a problem," he said. "I've got the best doghouse in town."

I'd give my left nut for a garage like that. Screw the nieghbors, Its not like there is parts car lying around to be an eye sore because its all indoors and out of the public eye.

True Story my man. It's not an Official Dress Code persay, but I know lots of people that have been harassed by the security.

My sister for instance. She wasn't one of the "Gap Girls" in High School, but she wasn't exactly Marilyn Manson either. Her typical dress would be a T Shirt and jeans. She was on crutches (has really bad back problems), and I took her to the mall to go prom dress shopping for her senior prom. We couldn't get anyone to help us so we left. That's typical Somerset behaviour.

I flew home on leave last week and I went there because I was looking for a particular store. They didn't have the store anymore, so as we were walking out everytime we passed a snooty looking guy I'd say to my buddy "Hey, I can smoke in here, right?".

Troy sucks. As does most of the East Side of Metro Detroit. </RANT>
