SYMPTOM OF THE UNIVERSE

existential dread, subjective media and news reviews and opinionated but not necessarily well-informed commentary.

    3 - So if clowns and nuclear death are high on your list, Freeboid the Nuklear Klown must be unspeakable.
    13 - Sweaty Lorraine's folded a few years ago. The owners were a husband and wife team that owned several Sweet Lorraine's restaurants. When they divorced, whoever ended up with the Ann Arbor location was thinking with their ass and decided to get out. I pine for the day that a kick butt restaurant occcupies that awesome space.
    17 - Zingermans has competition for that 'hot chocolate' of which you speak: "Chocolate Heat". It contains ancho and cayenne pepper: http://zingermanscreamery.com/content/pages/gelato.php
    18 - I TOTALLY forgot Beefalo's. Shame on me. J3K and I wept while sharing an o-ring loaf on several occasions. The day Beefalo's was plowed under, I said to Claudia: "I felt a great disturbance in my gut, as if millions of onion rings cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.
    35 - Practical wisdom, eh? You mean like: "If you hadn't locked up your tires as you ran over that bunny, you would have just rolled over it instead of smearing it across the pavement."? Or, "Get your ass to Ann Arbor"?
