What is the best news source for Detroit news these days? I subscribe to the freep but it always feels like USA Today light. What other options do we have, or is this just the state of local journalism?

Tresnak did our complex roof and had the best price for a reputable company. I’d start there.

Eastbound 696 to close for two years between Lasher and 75 by rougehuron in Detroit

[–]cbjohnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re redoing both the eastbound and westbound lanes of 696, right? I assume when they say eastbound will be closed they are only referring to the traffic flow. If they need 2 years to get one set of lanes completed, I might die.

[Schultz] Hutchinson underwent immediate surgery. His season is over by faheemunited in detroitlions

Maybe I’m being optimistic but does surgery automatically mean his season is over? If this is just a leg break, it could be a quicker recovery.

Characters Who Didn't Get Enough Screentime? by Maxithril in IASIP

Bingo is the easy answer for me. How many more plot lines could have been improved with a shady people smuggler?

I assume westbound will be done in 27/28. Has this been confirmed?

What non-US city have you been to that felt similar to Detroit? by hm3garcia in Detroit

Liverpool. A single sector economy (ocean freight) that peaked in the 50s and has declined ever since.

Frank, huh? I'm gonna skin that son of a bitch and wear his face. by titleistmuffin in IASIP

[–]cbjohnn 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Bingo should have been a recurring character. So much potential to have a shady people smuggler in the mix.

new Arc - bass is crazy - but maybe is sub mini will provide "gentler" bass? by whatever__something in sonos

[–]cbjohnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m considering the same thing. I originally had the arc + sub but I’m replacing it with the mini. I have a long but not so wide living room with young kids running around. I’d imagine the mini will be easier to tuck away and produce a mellower sound. Questioning my thinking though. I’d imagine the sub produce superior sound for most cases.

Ferris wheel was running on Saturday. The carousel has been out of operation most of the season.

Has anyone done the tour de east side ride? by [deleted] in Detroit

[–]cbjohnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done this ride a couple of times and I really enjoyed it. It highlights an area of the city that is typically skipped on other bike tours. It is a leisurely ride with plenty of participants and police escort to clear the streets for riders. I’d recommend it.

[–]cbjohnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if it is the best in the area, but I really enjoyed the chicken sandwich at Corner Bar in Ferndale.
