  1. SEEKING: Anybody have an original Detroit Times from September 24, 1955?

    Specifically, I'm looking for the Teen page, which published the Top Ten songs for local radio stations. Though I've never been able to research these very well, this is the only instance I know of...
  2. Milky's Movie Party: Looking 60+ years for vintage cartoon! Title, anybody?

    Hello to all. I'm not 100% sure that the cartoon was shown on Milky's Saturday TV show, but it might not matter - it might have been shown on Sagebrush Shorty or something. Chances are that those...

    ^ Good points, thought out well. You're right, it's easy to make fun of Matty, but that doesn't address a major investment that may not be all that viable.

    One could ask a question that may not...

    Because it's an international bridge, this name is one of the most appropriate names possible. I can't possibly think of any better name.

    I'll see your 32, and raise you to 37.

    I remembered, from visiting friends in Romeo many years ago, that their Mile Roads went at least to 32 there as well. I never ventured much north of Romeo,...

    Not to mention that I [[the OP) live nowhere near Detroit, but in no man's land in the cornfields about 500 miles away. I visit Michigan for a few days [[or a couple weeks) every year, though...thank...
  9. THRIFT SHOPS: Are there any places which sort men's jeans/slacks by size?

    I used to buy used men's pants [[usually blue jeans) at Value Village, which later became Value World, in Ypsilanti. It was an easy task, because they measured all of the pants which they displayed...

    I don't feel that torture is ever appropriate...for any reason.

    The scenario of the "ticking time bomb" is nothing but a tired movie or TV plot, entirely unlikely in real life.

    I agree, if it's not treasonous it is, at the very least, BLATANT cheating. Of course they're cherrypicking which states would have these proportional Electors.

    The strangest one is Interstate 88, which is entirely within New York State. And, a few hundreds miles to the west [[with no hint of continuity), Interstate 88 is entirely within Illinois.
