Remember when Gov. Jenny Granholm wanted Michigan to develop “cool” cities. We admittedly don’t have many. Ann Arbor is probably tops, unless some crazy guy sets up shop in the U-M diag to warn co-eds about the end of the world. East Lansing, Grand Rapids are also nice.

Frankenmuth? That’s a mystery. Why people come by the busload from Canada just to eat fried chicken, I’ll never know.

Now a website called Business Insider has come up with a list of “hot” cities and ranked Detroit No. 7. Here’s the reasoning: “Young idealists are moving back to Detroit… with their small businesses many of which are socially and environmentally responsible… like Recycle Here! and Food Lab Detroit.” I also hear that developers hope to turn a large chunk of abandoned factory turf into a zombie park, where visitors can flee flesh-eaters. Do I need to say that we're talking about fake zombies?
