@jerry_pham At least you live in Michigan now?

[Eric Dryer @egdryer]

@jerry_pham We used to do breakfast there a lot. Back when the sandwiches cost were under $10 and we thought they were expensive.

[Eric Dryer @egdryer]

@jerry_pham I’ve spent a lot of time in Ann Arbor

[Eric Dryer @egdryer]

@jerry_pham Are you at Zingerman’s right now?

[Eric Dryer @egdryer]

@marekcornett We have the same problem in Michigan but it’s property taxes. No one is allowed to touch sales tax without a statewide vote.

@jerry_pham Ask for a Tet Jell-O shot

One of the best feelings.

Why move to Downtown Detroit and and still drive to your job in midtown, refusing to use the bus? Just stay in the suburbs and commute in for 30-45 minutes like the rest of your co-workers.

Drivers: please stop ceding your right of way and waving cyclists through. You think you’re being nice but you are often putting the cyclist at risk. Also, don’t yell at them why they refuse your wave.

“LOS F” bicycle congestion on the campus of UCSB. Perhaps a lane widening could induce more bike traffic.

There are many costs to sitting in traffic - physical, emotional, environmental... Turns out there are real financial costs, too, to the tune of $1,062 per driver each year in #Detroit. #stuckintraffic #trafficjam https://t.co/RILwBasGa1

(Metro) Detroit You want more mass transit? Start making a point to regularly, if not frequently, utilize the public transit infrastructure we have now. Be incremental in your approach to this challenge #dpc18

.@NRA @DLoesch our good-hearted show and especially our Leslie Knope represent the opposite of your pro-slaughter agenda - take it down and also please eat shit. 🇺🇸 https://t.co/Ar2YF4yoic

I called and left messages with Novi Mayor Bob Gatt. He didn’t call back. I picked Novi & Livonia because they’ve got a lot of retail jobs & because the entire I-275 corridor in lacking mass transit, with no SMART service from Canton to Novi. Those communities have formed a wall. https://t.co/SLlOjD0JDR

@DanteBurch @AllyKayHoz True. I think we've gotten to a point here that most people recycle now and don't need an incentive to do it. The initial deposit we pay on cans is probably the main reason people are returning. People want their money back.

[Eric Dryer @egdryer]

@DanteBurch @AllyKayHoz I agree. I've just started recyling all my cans and bottles. It's not worth the $3 I'll get by returning them.

Wow. Boston Globe front today is something else.

@DE_Gifford @alexbhill @detroitography @tahinkle Awesome. Just let me know what you need and I can whip them up!
