I felt some jiggling in my chair, as well as the whole office, and IT was on the phone with a colleague they reported shaking and their alarm went off!

gone: I was in Detroit once when I was a kid playing in a hockey tournament...and while I was there there was an oozy spraying in downtown Detroit on the Sunday we left, and a shot gun in a movie theatre massacre down the road from out hotel. Some dude walked into the theatre and started firing off shells. Detroit scares the hell out of me! I'm not sure how far my perception is from reality though. Also found some great

Zach Vijay(Zee): Alaywa, looooool you need to RE-LAX..... Detroit is not what it "used to be" or at least not as ghetto as many people outside of MI perceive it to be, lol. I personally love downtown, Detroit...while others are weird and "scared" to be there (very dumb). Anyway, it's really nice now and if u ever go there, make sure you stop at Pizza Papalis in Greektown, Downtown D.... fun area and cool scenery....... When people talk to you or ask for ur leftovers when u leave the restaurant, don't be scared...Just smile and either give them ur carryout or keep walking! That easy, hahaha.
-(NEW Paragraph) Parama, I'll have to agree with you on the yummy amazing food here...including the nice mosques :) Ann Arbor is a nice area, especially the U OF M Ann Arbor campus area.
