We landed in Detroit a few minutes late, but still in time to make it on the bus to Ann Arbor -- less than an hour to go.

Oy -- they just announced there were a bakery's dozen planes queued up in front of us, so we'll be sitting on the runway for half an hour...

Waiting in line for our turn on LGA's runway 4, and I still haven't turned my phone off yet -- oh no, we're all going to die! (j/k)

The last time I was in Ann Arbor was the summers of 1986 and '87, when I went to a H.S. policy debate prep camp on the University campus.

The aquarium uses Poret filter foam, JetLifters for circulation, and an uncommon center-mounted Hamburger Mattenfilter.
