Re: Michigan Charters ranked as third worst in U.S.

No one said they had to be around the kids. Who gets custody still needs to be determined and I'm sure they take an addiction seriously when making those decisions. Who is "They" Since the Republicans slashed the ddhs budget in Michigan, agents barely keep up with serious situations these days. I'v...

Re: Detroit Public TV moving, current home sold

They moved to an area with a population boom at the time- a stone’s throw from Lyon Township (Napier is the boundary). It’s the same as when 2 and 7 moved to Southfield in the 50s. I was always under the impression that 2 &7 (and the MSP Northville post) are where they are at because of a ridge of ...

Re: Billy Joel cut by news

I saw that. I wasn't watching the concert, but flipped to get the news and the concert was still playing, then they chopped it off and went to news. I was very surprised, especially since CBS has been widely promoting this concert for a while. I also thought it was supposed to be a live event, but l...

Re: The majority of Trump supporters are being financially harmed

Would you rather I start creating as many pro-Trump posts in here as Matt creates anti-Trump posts? Honestly I probably won't have much to say until we get closer to the election, but you better believe that when he wins, I'll be rubbing all your noses in it. And if he loses? And if he (GOD FORBID!...

Re: Supreme Court Hits One Out Of The Park

The fact that it actually had to make it to the SCOTUS should concern all of us.

and (from the article) re; "because local governments tend to exhaust their property tax revenues on ongoing expenses," ... perhaps the local governments need to work on the "ongoing expense" so this is not an issue!

Re: Trump Punts On Abortion

I agree gas is about the same as pre-covid but power bills have gotten higher since covid. How much of that is related to grid improvements? I suspect some of it. In fact the DTE hikes specifically have something to do with such work. There’s a push to put the lines underground for example. Sure, D...

Re: Sleuthing Digital TV Signal Problems

Question.... If Comcast gets local feeds via fiber, why the delay I've seen up to 30 sec. between OTA and cable Hi-def? There is actually more delay in the fiber than getting the signal off air (VP+.68 vs maybe .98+), but not anywhere near enough to cause a 30 second delay. Not sure what's causing ...
