Looking for places to play pinball in the city. I'm pretty sure Jumbo's has a Soprano's game and the Detroit Pub has one too. Honest John's used to when they were near Belle Isle. Any other places I...
Didn't he say that the leases _ like on the Escalade and the luxury house _ were pre-paid? What I'm curious to see, if it comes out in court, is while he testified he got a hefty income tax refund...
How well does the government wrap together all the evidence will be most telling. And I think Riddle's legal team may be able to make an argument along the lines that the witnesses said a lot of...
In the debate over reducing the size of the city, folks are missing the obvious reduction areas. The plan, as I've been told, would involve things such as having grosse pointe park [[I hope I got the...
I think this has been on the board before, but I heard this from the owner of Foran's while eating at Eph's today on Woodward. The owner of Eph's has sold out, and has sold out for a couple months...
First off, the $27 is a bargain for starter, entree and dessert at a fine-dining restaurant.
On Friday, we went to Wolfgang Puck's. Really, really good. We were actually blown away by it -- we are...
Just remember the FREEP plays fast and loose with its editorial board. Henderson's uncle is Charlie Beckham, Bing's right-hand man, and that wasn't revealed for quite a time into the political...
I doubt au bon pain will re-open there, but I hope something does soon. It's a prime piece of real estate. Is it leased from the conservancy that runs campus martius? My optimism is low that it will...
Typical free press apologist. If you make your decision, make it, and don't back track or apologize. If you want to talk about how the FREEP not being trustworthy --- let's talk about Rochelle Riley....
Maybe I can beat you. Our neighborhood had street cleaning starting at 8 a.m. two Wednesday's ago. We moved our car into our driveway, and one-foot, AT MOST, of the vehicle protruded into the...
I got my straw in Eastern Market after all. The way hay vs. straw was explained to me --- hay if for horses, straw isn't ...
I'm an urban chicken farmer and I need some straw. Sometimes I can get it at Eastern Market, if not I go to the Baseline Feed Store in Warren. Does anyone know where in the city-proper I can get it...
I used to be totally anti-handgun. Until someone tried to rob my wife an me at gun point last Friday night while walking our dogs _ one is a mastiff _ by Boston-Edision. First time he pulled up and...
We filed our return in February. We got our $41 refund on Saturday. But I still think I'm waiting on my refund from last year ...
My wife and I stopped by the Ellington Lofts too on Sunday to check them out and get details on the auction. The unit are truly nice, and I think they are some great deals. Especially the corner...
We tried a new place to dinner for us last night, "Taste," the pizza bar behind Trolley Plaza. We had the $25 special, which was one pizza of our choice and any two glasses of wine.
The wine and...
I like both neighborhoods alot, but from a financial standpoint, Corktown is the safer bet. Corktown prices have not dropped significantly, if at all, during the housing crisis. And I don't think...
I've taken two large dogs I adopted who were strays _ a bullmastiff and a bordeaux mastiff _ to K9 and they are superior to anything I've seen before. I'd taken Michigan Humane Society Classes and...
