WE'RE NUMBER ONE! WE'RE NUMBER ONE!

But I demand a retabulation of the numbers. This is bullshit. I think that Detroit was the fattest city in the United States, too.

Well, you gotta be good at something, right?

(And, trust me, it isn't shocking that Flint, MI, came in third in the "Misery Ranking.")

Yeah, but at least we are just from the Metro Detroit "area" and not from that city itself. Thank god. It probably doesn't help with their leadership scamming millions from the pockets of the unfortunate residents of that endless pit of despair. Well, as the economy gets worse and worse here, we will always have our jobs and we will get fat off of that.

i've always hated polls and surveys where you fill in boxes without adding any of the juices that surround 'so-called facts'. it gives you numbers for your categories, but it really doesn't give you a whole picture. and i think it is detrimental for these kinds of surveys to be published as facts in a magazine, giving a slanted picture of a situation. i can't believe detroit is any worse that any other large city...they all have their problems and perks. and all we can hope for is that things get better for all of us in the usa with the forth-coming
election. we need to stay positive and not be made to feel bad by a magazine like forbes.

SoCal...is that a hip way to say "so callous"? :-P

Lees: "...[U]nfortunate residents of that endless pit of despair." LMAO! :-D How do you *really* feel?! ;-) We *hope* that we'll always have our jobs. Nothing is certain in this life except for death, taxes and the ineptitude of G. W. Bush.

BooBoo: Yes, surveys and such are far too black and white. The world is chocked full of shades of gray. And, hell yeah, I'm hand-wringingly anticipating this year's election. We all need a fresh start. Eight years has been eight years too many. :-\
