I think some people taking the idea of crews of firefighters "watching" fires too literally. It's not as though they're just going to pull up and stand around with their hands in their pockets,...

I don't have any idea how DFD would determine if a structure is occupied or not, but I would hate to see lives risked or lost over an abandoned structure. But risking the lives of our over-tasked...

Agreed that there would be difficulty determining if a structure meets all the criteria, especially whether one is completely abandoned. However, after the 2008 death of firefighter Walter Harris...

Forgive me if I'm repeating what another has already pointed out, but for those of you suggesting that students can just bus in from Detroit to schools in Macomb county [[Clintondale, Mount Clemens,...

I'm surprised the hours weren't posted on the gate. I know that Trinity Lutheran Cemetery is closed on Mondays.

We were at tonight's game and so glad the rain stayed light. Verlander pitched well and it was nice to see a game with some offense!! Hope tomorrow's game is as much fun to watch!

From the Macomb Daily this morning:

During spring training last year, Cabrera said he was done drinking alcohol after he spent much of the offseason in counseling.

“You guys write in the paper...

I'm sure it would be difficult to accurately answer this question. I would've guessed that Taylor-tucky was first for similar reasons that lilpup gave you. Much of my father's older relatives came...

Wish I had another photo with a better angle of the doors, but for now I'm content knowing it's a Lincoln Zephyr. My grandfather worked for Ford [[retired from there too) so I only remember them...

Lilpup. Thanks for the reference page....that is fantastic!

OK. I'm enjoying hearing the reasons for the 1946, etc. So, let me ask this:

I'm looking at the photo from Lilpup's reference...

Well, I'm definitely not an expert....but on the later models, the hood doesn't look to come up as high above the headlights as in the picture of my grandfather. The hoods don't appear as tall in...

That would make sense.....I only remember them driving Lincolns, but my memory only goes back to the mid-70s. I found some images online of the 1942 Lincoln Continental, looks about right. Thanks...

Can anyone help me in identifying the make and possibly the model of the car in this photo? The gentleman in the photo is my grandfather. I'm hoping that there's enough identifying features visible...

Here is confirmation.....45,000 computers for DPS students

I don't believe they will post the amount because it could probably lead to deceitful attempts, etc for larger amounts. Kind of depends what entity owes the money, I suppose. If it's from an...

A friend of mine, her husband had a claim with the state but it wasn't nearly so sizeable....around $400-500. I don't recall him having to do much more than send in the required notarized paperwork....

If you go to the state of Michigan's website, there's a link to the Treasury departments "Unclaimed Property" site. You can type in your name and see if there's any money that belongs to you. And...

Mikefmich -

Thanks for the tip...I'll try to look into it. I didn't have much luck when I posed a question to the GP historical society...they didn't return my messages...so, it's been a lot of...

Yes MikeM, what became of the Grosse Pointe Cemetery? This thread caught my attention because I've been doing genealogy research in and around Detroit for years now and the burial location of one...

In his song, "Devil Without a Cause", there's this verse:

"I went from St Clair Shores and drink specials at Winners, to New York City and seven hundred dollar dinners."

Technically, the bar...

Make sure you're as detailed as possible when sending an inquiry. Trinity is an older cemetery and like so many, all their records are stored in files, handwritten. No computer database for...

We were at a game in July out in rightfield and after the last out of an inning, Ordonez tossed a ball up into our section and a 30-something gentleman reached out and caught it over a bunch of...

A few years ago, we had a couple of squirrels that we eventually "trained" to take peanuts in the shell from our hand. They got so accustomed to the treats that they'd come up to the sliding door at...
