Re: Mixed Feelings About WJR since their Lineup Change

Ever since the schedule change I rarely listen to WJR anymore. Prior, I really only listened to Albom. But now I get off work and the show is half over. Today Albom is taking callers to bitch about self checkout at the store; something I’ve been hearing old people bitch about for 25 years. I turned ...

Re: Detroit News fires Charlie LeDuff over c-word insult

I want to hear more from the people here who demand that journalists keep their opinions out of the news.

Re: Lawsuit targets East Lansing bar over song licensing

I don't know anything about copyright law, but I guess I better be careful playing a CD at a back yard barbecue or at work in the office.

Re: Rite Aid bankrupt

Rite Aid is down the street from my house. It's not my favorite, but when I need to deal with prescriptions, all the other pharmacies are out of my way, and I'm likely already frustrated or feeling like crap if I have a prescription, so proximity wins.

Re: Oregon plane crash

I fly about a 150000 miles each year and I've never been treated how you describe. No body search? No accusation that you're carrying explosives? No making you remove the radio from your carry on bag and turn it on to prove it really is just a radio? No duct tape over your mouth? You may be joking,...

Re: 950 WWJ lies to its listeners

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...

Re: 950 WWJ lies to its listeners

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.

Re: 950 WWJ lies to its listeners

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...

Re: The tiny one's name no longer censored?

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.

Re: What a shitty situation

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.

Re: 950 WWJ lies to its listeners

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 ...

Re: Food at get togethers

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...
