Aw, poor M. Let's hope a little coddling gets him back on track.
Calli, according to Wikipedia the name comes from the surveyors of the area finding a damaged axe on the ground when they made camp and they listed the site as "Bad Axe Camp" on the map of the area.
No shit, Zen! That's crazy, it's not that big a town. Both of my grandparents on my dad's side grew up there. But most of their families came over from Ontario in the middle to late 1800s. Dad said they used to have huge family reunions in Windsor every year.
Happy birthday, Seska! Hooray, tea!
Congrats in the successful date, P-C. Well done.

My father's father came from Canada, probably Ontario, in the late 1800's, too. ... You don't happen to have any Stewarts in your family tree, do you?
I'm just south of Lexington right now. About 15 minutes up from Port Huron.
Awesome. My mom's from Sarnia.
No Stewarts that I know of. I've got Campbell, Dunster, and Ogden all from Ontario. Morin from Quebec, actually, stopped in Ontario long enough to marry and then hied off to MI.
Ok, who else is kinda disappointed that ZenKitty and SailAway didn't turn out to be identical long lost cousins?
Hehe. Could still be there! I can't get back before my great grandma Campbell, so who knows? There might be a Stewart in there yet. It's a good Scottish name.
I'm a Stewart! Maybe we're related.
If not, we do at least spell our name the good way.
