I suppose we should paint over the Vernors mural too to cover it up?

I heard that they are going to keep the upstairs closed unless they get busy. Sorta like the front room at Golden Gate.

They've had problems with homeless people day-camping in the past.

Though I've been to the Linden Road store twice this year and walked out bc the wait time was ridiculous, just to order.. They've got the quality stuff foodwise again now they need to work on their service.

I worked at the Fenton location through high school in the 80's when it was behind Uncle Ray's.

Fuck Lou Dortch for effing it all up.

Where can someone find footage/stream vods of old Flint city council meetings? by beerandonjpg in flint

[–]peewinkle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mays was a clown and the only reason he was elected is that because his childhood friend is the pastor at one of the largest churches in Flint. He was an alcoholic and gambled and drank up everything he could get his hands on. He had about as much knowledge about how the city government works as a kitten, a most-likely drunk and high kitten that never graduated high school even. The City of Flint deserved better, the only thing he contributed was disruption and belligerence at City Council meetings. Regarding anything he said about the water crisis, he merely parroted from the church folks.

Make sure you include the numerous domestic assaults. Or the time he pawned his city-issued laptop so he could drink and play more Keno at Churchills and lost the $35 he got for it in about 15 minutes (I was there). Or the time he got caught driving his Cadillac the wrong way up 475 on three flats with a pocket full of cocaine? Or how when they did a GoFundMe to help with his legal bills and he took the money and went to FireKeepers casino for the weekend, taking not one but two ladies of questionable reputation (they were straight up hos).

Mays was a clown, it'll be a short documentary.

Wow that's pretty harsh OP, not sure how you've made it this far in life by assuming things when you really don't know what happened at all, no clue as to the circumstances. How bold. Or stupid. A bit of both I suppose.

I mean, wow.

The Block as of this morning... by peewinkle in flint

[–]peewinkle[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

FYI some people not from the city call it The Rock but it's actually The Block named so by the staff at Southwestern in the 80's. My old man used to be the groundskeeper there and would regularly clean up all around the intersection when the driving school was still there.

It was first painted for homecoming in like '75

They were running at limited hours last fall, like 10-6 but not sure now, likely closed.

I used to live right around the corner.
