I've reached out on the forums a couple of times and when I get a response I also get a comment on my musical career.

She is going to get her bachelor of music.

Some folks are better with talking to people on the phone, others at composing great letters, while others connect best when they meet people face to face.

I mainly work on commercials, but have done everything from music videos to tv to small independent features.  

I love live music on any day at any time, I love being able to take a day to canoe on the river, I love the hole-in-the-wall BBQ places, I love where I live.

It finally got to a point where I said "I know I need to upgrade but this thing wont break" I did upgrade but still use my older Macbook to download music because they just dont get viruses.

As several people have mentioned, Detroit is composed of micro-markets.

I work in an environment that allows me to listen to music/podcasts/audiobooks during my entire shift.
