Say Nice Things About Detroit
Many efforts have been launched in the past 30 years or so to improve the image of Detroit, including that silly "Say Nice Things About Detroit" campaign, and the ridiculous "Do It In Detroit" slogan.
Both efforts failed and, well, I left a long time ago, so I'm hardly a spokesperson.
Nonetheless, in tribute to my friends in Detroit, I snapped this shot of Detroit Street the other day here in Los Angeles.
Here's hoping 2009 in Motown is better than 2008.
