10) The second highest unemployment rate in the country. Mark was unemployed for 8 months. Your friends joke that they need the last worker left in Michigan to turn out the lights.
9) The UAW likes to put themselves and other companies out of business.

8) Mark had no family in Michigan.
7) 1 in 13 homes are on the market. 1 in 65 were foreclosed on in 2006. Good luck selling your $130,000 house when builders are selling their new $300k homes for $150k to get rid of excess inventory.
6) Mark likes cars. Mark likes driving cars more than the 3 months during construction season.
5) It costs $120 a month to heat a garage with a space heater.
4) You have to plan 30 minutes extra for wherever you go to shovel off your car and put on and take off winter gear.
3) The governor wasted my taxes and days in office to “bury” the word nigger.

2) Seasonal Affective Disorder. Western Michigan has the highest rate of anti-depressent use in the country.

    They turned out the lights on Michigan years ago. Thus the use of the anti-depressants.
