Detiot, Michigan

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detroit

Well, this is a fine city to visit, but this is the day I am going to take a long nap. A day of peace. Also a day of silence. I choose this day to rest because tomorrow's a big day. Talk to you later.

Detroit (pronounced /dɪˈtrɔɪt/) is the largest city in the U.S. state of Michigan and the seat of Wayne County. Detroit is a major port city on the Detroit River, in the Midwest region of the United States. Located north of Windsor, Ontario, Detroit is the only major[4] U.S. city that looks south to Canada. It was founded on July 24, 1701 by the Frenchman Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac. Its name originates from the French word détroit (pronounced: [detʁwa] ( listen)) for strait,[5] characterizing its location on the river connecting the Great Lakes.
Known as the world's traditional automotive center,[6] "Detroit" is a metonym for the American automobile industry and an important source of popular music legacies celebrated by the city's two familiar nicknames, The Motor City and Motown.
