    I'm only going by what others have said here, I haven't done any research myself, but if there isn't in fact very strict testing of bottled water, this makes no sense to me. It seems to me that any...

    Nowadays Nugent gives him his props, but back in the day he didn't seem to. His voice is far better than Ted's, that's for sure. Even though he was the singer, Nugent was the 'front man', and that's...

    Sorry, but putting any negative spin on this is ridiculous. Maybe they're not all going to Harvard or U of M, but at least they all graduated. Detroit Communication And Media Arts is a Detroit public...

    Used to hang out at The Flipper Inn back in the mid 70s, it was on Fenkell west of Lahser if I remember right, in Brightmoor. The place was usually jam packed. Walked up there with two buddies of...

    Jimaz, I remember those situations. There were a few when I was a kid, don't remember a specific one. I do remember trying to walk lightly so that I wouldn't 'fall in'. Back in the days when we were...

    I remember it well. We ended up with a seven day weekend, getting Mon-Weds off from school. I walked up to the Flipper Inn pinball parlor early Sunday afternoon with a couple of friends in the middle...

    Assumption

    That was my exact thought. A good friend of my brother attended Assumption, he lived on campus during the school year, played on their hockey team. That's the only high school I know of in Canada...

    Courtney Vance

    Not sure if he went to MOS. He was my classmate at St Marys in 7th and 8th grade, played CYO basketball with him for a very short time in 7th grade [[he hurt his knee). He and Angela Bassett co-wrote...

    Pic on FB

    Joe, I think I've seen pics of Cregars on the FB Rosedale Park page, though it may be that it was only ads with a drawing of it or something along those lines. I'm guessing you may already know about...

    My brother-in-law grew up on Fenmore North of 6 Mile, went to Benedictine, graduated in 74, had older brothers who I think also graduated from there.

    Amazing that they're in position to make the playoffs, all things considered. We obviously have great scouting, great coaching in Grand Rapids and Detroit, and some very talented young players. Some...

    I'm with Al. I couldn't care less about the scoreboard and the 'sideshows'. I want to see a good, competitive team that has a chance to win a championship.

    I went to St Marys, class of 78, lived by Grand River and Greenfield. There was a bar on 7 Mile just east of Southfield we would go to occasionally in that same timeframe, knew some guys who were in...

    My old school, St. Mary's Of Redford, has always been cause for confusion. St. Mary's parish was originally part of Redford Township, then became part of Detroit in the 1920s. They never bothered...

    Hey Expat, you most likely know some people I know. Knew several families that lived right by you, several of them went to QOH, many ended up at St Marys with me. I was on Prevost near Eaton, right...

    I was at the Three Dog Night concert down at the Riverwalk in 2011, the bass player [[I think) was from Detroit. They mentioned it to the crowd and mentioned his street, and I'm pretty sure it was...

    Thanks, please let me know one way or the other. I understand that they may want to go with a company as opposed to an independent.

    I can't imagine the buyer leaving it empty for long. From what the article in the News said it will reopen as another restaurant/bar [[Silkeys was part of the deal), for whatever that's worth.
