I often get asked about the radio control (r/c) racing I do.  Here is a video of some of the top r/c racers in the world at the recent IFMAR Worlds:

I am sure you have seen the Mac vs PC ads that play on TV.  The below is for a flash based web ad on a website.  Hilarious!

Watch in awe as YouTuber “azuritereaction” runs through “And Justice for All” without breaking a sweat (or a note streak).  This is from a new video game out called “Rock Band” (much like Guitar Hero).

News: Detroit is the most dangerous city in USA

To further entice everyone to stay in Michigan, even though the state is in a total crap hole, today this announcement came out:

“In another blow to the Motor City’s tarnished image, Detroit pushed past St. Louis to become the nation’s most dangerous city, according to a private research group’s controversial analysis, released Sunday, of annual FBI crime statistics.”

Granted there are critics of how the study was conducted and the data used, but honestly, are they that far off in regards to Detroit? I don’t think so.

Oh, let’s not stop with just having 1 Michigan city in the 10 top, let’s have TWO in the top 5.  Here is the top 10 list:

Ranked Most Dangerous

1. Detroit, Michigan  <–
2. St. Louis, Missouri
3. Flint, Michigan  <–
4. Oakland, California
5. Camden, New Jersey
6. Birmingham, Alabama
7. North Charleston, South Carolina
8. Memphis, Tennessee
9. Richmond, California
10. Cleveland, Ohio

Sports: UM and Ohio State

Well, I was not surprised, but still disappointed, when UM lost today to Wisconsin. I had to turn the TV off come the start of the 4th quarter.

However, I just learned Illinois beat Ohio State. Talk about a season of upsets!

Next weekend’s game here in Ann Arbor will decide who wins the Big10 championship. Neither team will be playing for the national title, however.

Weather: Snow

We had our first flurries of the season yesterday for most of the morning. It came down pretty hard at times but did not stick. Guess the ground is still a little bit too warm.
