What exactly do you have to eat to have this dream? You’re trapped in a Mexican town (which you know because there are lots of Mexican people around) but it’s surrounded by corn. You also know that you have to kill a famous 40’s villian 8 times in different settings, since he has 8 lives, […]

General Motors announced today that they would be closing 9 plants and RIFing 30,000 people in the next 3 years. 30,000 people. For Michiganders, that means the Lansing plant, the Flint engine facility, and the service and parts center in Ypsilanti will be closed, with the potential for another plant closing.
