  1. That whole album is a trip
  2. Outdoor ranges. The closest was MultiLakes Ranges Google Maps has them as the 200 Meter Rifle Range and a Skeet and Trap Club on the same property. What’s listed as the Detroit Gun Club is a bit down Oakley Park Rd…as well as Birmingham Gun Club. I doubt the noise from either one of those would carry the 2 miles down the road, even on a clear morning
  3. No real ties to U of M so no clue. However Google A-I infers it may mark an end to the "Good Ol Boys" club that seems to have dominated the monied sports in recent years, One AD candidate it mentioned is Candice Storey Lee, current AD at Vanderbilt (????)
  4. We had a condo adjacent to a golf course for a couple of years. If I remember correctly it was a private club. The LPGA played there for a couple of years. It beats being next to a shopping mall. edit It was also a lot quieter than the shooting range in Commerce Twp that was about a mile away

  10. There was a reason they shipped him off to military school. But, the apple does not fall far from the tree
  11. What could possibly go wrong??
  12. Quite the swing..
  13. A bit more on the Nebraska Fraud case. It looks like it's not "illegal" voters or citizens but actual American Citizens. Lock em all up
  14. Saying the quiet part out loud...
  15. Long history of Republican Party politics. Now running as a "non-partisan
  16. August 17 1923 Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and Harvey Firestone arrive in Escanaba, Michigan Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and Harvey Firestone — the famous trio known as the “Vagabonds” — arrived in Escanaba aboard Ford’s yacht Sialia to begin a week-long camping expedition through Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The trip wasn’t exactly “roughing it.” The party included their wives, staff, chauffeurs, several Lincoln automobiles, an Edison generator and enough provisions to make a lumber camp look pretty comfortable. They traveled through the U.P., including Ford’s operations around Iron Mountain. There are reports the trio began testing Firestone's Balloon Tires (not substantiated) https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/august-17?cmpid=email-hist-tdih-2026-0817-08172026&om_rid=&~campaign=hist-tdih-2026-0817
  17. We visited the ballpark when it first opened. It was cool. I’m a big Kinsella fan and have read most of his books Really like what they’ve done to the area with the new ballpark.
  18. Between Knoxville and Dyersville (Field of Dreams Game) Iowa got a big tourism boost this weekend
  19. The racetrack in Knoxville put FlightTracker on their giant video scoreboard so fans could follow the flight from Richmond. He won in Knoxville after finishing sixth in Richmond.

  21. Rather than create a new topic (or do a search if this has been done before) Covers that are better than the original. Aretha Franklin Respect (over Otis Redding) Johnny Cash "Hurt" Joe Cocker With a Little Help From My Friends Jimi Hendrix All Along the Watchtower Linda Ronstadt Willin' Marvin Gaye I Heard it Thru the Grapevine. (Keep in mind I'm a child of the late 60 and 70s...) Have at it
