The city of Detroit is on the verge of bankruptcy. It would be the largest municipal bankruptcy in history, with a long term debt of $20 billion.

Interesting. Wonder what would happen to the baseball team, which has some of the biggest stars in baseball.
OK, I'm having to dig into my memory of when I used to play and follow golf a bit. The thing is, Nike are sponsoring McIllroy because he's using their equipment. He was playing perfectly well with his old clubs [even I could notice that, he was winning everything], made by a different manufacturer [Titleist, I found out. Blimey, I used to have Titleist clubs], but Nike can't come along and just stamp their name into identical copies, because they want to be distinctively different so that they can sell clubs. So McIlroy signs up for $20M with Nike and promptly ruins his confidence and possibly a career, with clubs he can't adapt to. He should go back to his old clubs and call it quits with Nike.
Someone else do the table, I'm not gonna be on my computer tonight, thanks guys <3
also congrats Qwerty! The thought of marriage is terrifying to me so as someone around my age, you're a braver man than I am.

Excellent. And with more Ashes coming up, I sense a few more wins coming.
I'll just reply to every one of your msg's.
The competition is certainly hotting up. You're not even getting placed these days.

I'll make my comeback after the Ashes.

Same here, can't be bothered doing updates on The Ashes.
Now, now GBS. I'm sure Dan is just pining for Flora and keeping it to himself. If he opened up like Pompey does he'd win by a landslide.
Yeah it's kind of scary, but I'm trying to just treat it like a bit of a fun party... about to start writing a speech. I'm really terrible at this stuff.
So Tropico 3 looks good. Just played the tutorials but I like the music and the satirical nature of it. Also the graphics are quite good. I think there came a point a few years back where graphics became so good that any further developments in terms of graphical ability are pretty tiny. I think that point was about the time when Fallout 3 and Bioshock came out.
Ha I'm sure it'll be a really fun party, the soon to be Mrs Qwerty is a lucky woman. One last day of freedom tomorrow!
