Everybody knows Flint, Michigan is a violent city. It's been well documented and is all too real in the lives of young people in the city. Some people just accept it as the reality this city faces, but others are doing something about it.
This year EA Sports allowed the fans to vote for who would grace the cover of their highly successful college football video game. And Flint's own Mark Ingram was the winner.
We can bitch and moan about how much Flint sucks, or we can do something about it. Atwood Stadium was built by the people of Flint in the 1920's and now the community is being called on to help restore it. This could be your chance to help in the restoration of our city.
If you listen to my radio show on a regular basis, you'll hear me throw a shout out to the nerds that go to Kettering. They really deserve it this time, as 6 of them ran 65 miles from Detroit to Flint to raise money for cancer research.
April 4, 2011 Flash mobs seem to be popping up everywhere! Just last week, another one hit center court at Genesee Valley Mall. I personally think that these things are kind of cool unless I'm there. There are already enough slow, fat and smelly people that get in the way of my quest for new shoes!

March 4, 2011 If ever there were an olympic sport specifically made for Flint...this is it! There's enough crackheads around for everyone to practice!
I'm not going to lie. I'm just sitting here, youtubing Jackie Moon videos. But you'll be glad I did, cuz we are about to get rain forest sweaty. I'm talking swamp sweaty. Let's fill the bathtub full of sweat.
February 9, 2011 Yes, Flint is on Forbes list of most miserable cities. However we are NOT number one!
HOLY CRAP FLINT IS CRAZY!!! On Christmas Day, a woman was beat up, by a group with belts, for stealing a bag of weed, and then returning it! Honestly, you can't make this stuff up. This story is awesome!
So I've lived in Flint for almost a year now. And honestly, I love my job . I've had a bunch of other ones, and most sucked. But honestly, this chapter has been awesome. I've met a ton of cool people, seen a million kick ass concerts at the Shop, and have done somethings I can't even remember. But the thing that stands out in my mind the most about living in Flint so far is the amount of haters.
