Tweet of the Week: Detroit the great multi-tasker

This week's tweets hit on everything from Mayor Dave Bing to restaurant week to the Detroit Tigers. Essentially, there are a lot of things to look forward to.

We'll start with @kwhunter's optimistic feelings of some of Mayor Dave Bing's actions: Detroit's Mayor establishes CORE; reorganizing govt; privatization; if successful, potential great blueprint

Let's hope whatever Mayor Bing comes up with is successful.

Next we have @rystle's gratuitous seating-self promotion: I have tickets to the Detroit Tiger's Baseball game tonight! I will be sitting right behind the Tiger Dugout. Look for me! ;)

JK @rystle, enjoy your seats and our fingers are crossed for the division leading, pennant chasing Tigs.

And, of course, the greatly anticipated Detroit Restaurant Week excitement hasn't eluded tweeters... from as far away as Arizona.

@PhxNest is so excited that she ended her tweet with an exclamation point: First ever Restaurant Week in Detroit this week!

How can you not be excited? Ten evenings and handfuls of restaurants serving 3+ course meals for only 27 bucks? Yeah, that may sound like a commercial... but really, it's shaping up to be a great event.

But, that's not the winner. This little bit of knowledge was dropped on us... and made us laugh... 'cause it's true.

@Brooksmostly:  I Still love detroit lol only place u can buy a pint, chinese food, a cell phone, n car insurance all in the same store lol

Ah, Detroit, the great multi-tasker.

So, until next week, keep readin', keep tweetin'. And don't forget to follow Model D on Twitter here.
