It's people like Alberta Easter who make a strong, strong case for why Michigan needs to have the death penalty. There is no excuse that she should've been allowed to live for 24 years, completely...

Well, I received a picture from Debbie at SHPL. She warned me that the quality was poor, but I think the picture is better than that. While the roof does not appear to be collapsed in this picture,...

I received an email back from one of the librarians, Debbie Vercellone, at the Sterling Heights Public Library. She asked me for clarifications on the farmhouse fire. She indicated she had found a...

I think it's just how the minds of youngsters work. My daughter is 3 and my son is 1; it's been interesting to see how my daughter has become more acutely aware of the concept of time as she's...

Some areas of Shelby Township seemed pretty marshy but those are lower-lying areas so it didn't come as much surprise to see standing water. Coming into work today included the daily trip from M-59...

Thanks Ray. Like you I have a few "remembrances" that found permanent homes in my memory. Around the same time [[early 1980s), not far from the aforementioned farmhouse, a natural gas pumping station...

I remember as a kid riding with my parents west on 14 Mile Rd. to visit Grandma and Grandpa in Clawson and there was a pretty eerie looking farmhouse and adjacent barn on the grounds of Maple Lane...
