What's sad is when you think about songs like Don Mclean's "American Pie". Basically a song dedicated to the transition from the generation of hope and dreams for America in the 50s, into the "wild" 60s. I heard a kid I work with singing that song the other day, and I asked him if he liked what the song was about. He says "It's about high school kids in trucks getting drunk, of course I like it". I am NOT joking, my mouth dropped.

he probably had no idea it had anything to do with the death of Buddy Holly, Richie Valenz, and the Big Bopper, either.

At that point I neglected to ask :) Probably didn't notice the references to Bob Dylan, the Beatles, Rolling Stone, Janis Joplin either.

I've never heard the Michigan racist stereotype, we're the ones that usually get the racist stereotypes (I live in Georgia).

What the shit? My shop is at 8 1/2 Mile, only 1/2 mile north of Detroit City. I'd say over 80% of the customers who come into my shop are black. If I hated black people there would be no way my business could survive.

I was happier with the Honda Civic ricer Foose built on OVerhaulin' with the All Eclipse system.
I've started watching this show since you mentioned it, he does great work. I saw that episode too, that did look nice.
