Thanks, all.
We took the kids to Philly yesterday to see the Libert Bell and Independence Hall. Pretty cool shit. When we drove through Camden NJ J ack looked out the window and said "Dad, it looks just like Call of Duty". He was right. Ha!I feel like I am watching the destruction of our democracy while my neighbors and friends cheer it on

OMG! Unbelieveable!
I have been meaning to apply for a Passport. In actuality, before now, I have had no need to have one. My trips out of the country have been limited to Canada or territories of the US. Until recently, no passport was needed to go to Canada.
......anywho, I have been meaning to apply for a passport in case something came up that would take me out of the Country (hopefully for pleasure).
After searching for about two months, I was unable to find my birth certificate. Dreading the thought of going back downtown and dealing with the City of Detroit Department of Health (who keeps all of the records of births within the City) I put this task off for a long time. I decided that this week I was going to get this done.
In last weeks newspaper I was reading an article on how lacking Wayne County's web site was in comparison to our neighboring Counties of Oakland and Macomb. They did however say that one could apply for birth certificates online.
On a whim, I went to the County's web site to apply for mine. There I learned the County held records for all births in the County except those that were born in the City of Detroit. If you were born in Detroit, you had to contact them directly. There was a link for those who were born in Detroit. I went there and found an option of printing out a form and sending it in or applying online.
I filled out an application online and it gave me two choices to request the information from. The State of Michigan live births department, or the City of Detroit Department of Vital Statistics. Knowing how the City of Detroit tries to keep everything within their jurisdiction, I chose the Detroit options which surprisingly, was $2.00 cheaper than requesting from the State.
After the transaction was confirmed, I was informed that it will take 8-12 business days to process the request and additional time for delivery (I could opt for FedEX or UPS overnight for an additional $32.50 or use the USPS which was free but not trackable). I chose to use the USPS.
My request was made Monday June 14 at 7:53 AM.
My mail was delivered today at about 10:30 AM an lo and behold! A true copy of my birth certificate was in my mailbox.
I was so impressed with the speed of service, I felt it necessary to write a letter to Mayor Bing to let him know that there are good things happening in City Government all is not bad. I CC'd the head of the Department responsible for maintaining and issuing these records.
I am really impressed!Last edited by Malto Marko; June 16, 2010, 01:55 PM.I long for a Lions team that is consistently competitive.
