I suspect because you're local to Michigan to be familiar with those 3 examples. I work with people all over the country who are not familiar with Michigan and those pronunciations, and I have heard the wrong pronunciations for all 3 of those examples when referring to the Michigan version. My point...

Yea, I agree it does sound odd. But so does Char-LOTTE in Michigan, as opposed to CHAR-lit in North Carolina. Or MYE-lin (Milan) as opposed to Mih-LON. Or TRA-verse City as opposed to Tra-VERSE City. I just go by how the locals say it.

It's been said before, but Jim Hughes is absolutely horrible. You can't understand half of what he says. Where exactly is "Ann-Apolis Road"? Not once, but three times. It's in Dearborn Heights and surrounding cities. I have a friend who lives on Annapolis St for 20-some years, and another friend wh...

Or BB Hall of Fame to feed the superfan egos and keep letting them believe that 1,000+ pages of realtime chatter proves popularity of their brokered sportstalk messiah.

It currently makes Mark Forum As Read functions useless to me, which is an important way I interact with the board otherwise.

I just want regular sunny days in the winter, not the normal grey misery, and I can deal with the rest.

Gosh I loved that cartoon as a kid. I thought it was hilarious, especially the toaster scene. Very nostalgic to me now.

There's almost always a wild story accompanying the loss of an item in a toilet. This one is no different. I'm always amazed at what (or who) unintentionally enters a toilet. The only thing I've ever lost to a toilet is weight.

Some WJR traffic reporter kept saying "In Wayne, accident on 94 at ___" and it took my brain a little too long to regroup and shift from understanding Wayne the city, and Wayne the county in the context of these reports. It got especially confusing in the reports that said "In Wayne, accident on 94 ...

What was the purpose of the call? Was it to A) request special food accommodations that weren't part of the original spread, or B) was the purpose of the call to ask what will be available so the guest knows if they need to bring something on their own? Depending how reasonable the request is, or ho...

…And a groupie.

I went today and bought some new test equipment, some components, antennas, and cables. Regular price would have been about $350 and I got it for $110. I’ll miss the place.

Suddenly conservatives are concerned about the country being divided… after Trump and his patsies did their damage and are now being held accountable.

Just let him off free. No problem. Everything will resolve and we can sing kumbaya together.

Laughable.

"The voters should decide." Isn't that what this is all about? Didn't the voters already decide? And Trump (and his cronies) said, and still says, "nah, screw that." Are we supposed to let this shitslinger's behavior continue in future elections until the man dies? Are we supposed to have this fight...

More of the same, different frequency. That's what we sure wanted.

I really only listen to terrestrial radio for NPR and DX'ing. Large market terrestrial radio isn't where I go for music anymore. Small market radio is much more interesting when I'm out of town. And although online radio stations can also be just as lazy in their programming (how many boring 80's hi...
