Some have suggested trying to make downtown Lapeer a destination for antique dealers and shoppers. More ... State Representative Kevin Daley (R) P.O. Box 30014 Lansing, MI 48909 Phone: 517-373-1800 kevindaley@ house. mi. gov State Senator Phil Pavlov (R) P.O. Box 30036 Lansing, MI 48909 Phone: 517-373-7708 senppavlov@ senate. michigan. gov U.S. Senators Carl D. Levin (D) 269 Russell Senate Office Building Washington, D.C., 20510 More ... In response to In Our Words “Federal ruling riles many Catholics,” thank you for raising the issue. Yes, our priest read the letter from the archbishop stating that the President was giving “we believers” a year to figure out how to violate our consciences. More ... Let’s say there are no more high schools as we know them. Instead students do all their lessons online at home. With no school boards, bus drivers, teachers, coaches, or other school personnel in place, what would happen to athletics? Would athletic facilities also face the wrecking ball? More ... I wonder if anybody is excited or angry about what the state legislators are trying to do now about adding nine cents more tax onto a gallon of gasoline. Michigan already has one of the states in the Union’s highest rates of taxation on gasoline and they want to put another nine cents more onto it for road repairs. More ... Regarding all the writing in the paper that’s about downtown Lapeer being a ghost town — I’m here to tell you it is a ghost town, and you can thank the mayor of Lapeer for doing that. More ... One topic of discussion sorely missing in the presidential debates is the issue of globalization — one world government.

It means stepping out of your political comfort zone. More ... Much smaller district Some people are getting bent out of shape, but Lapeer schools had to do what they’re doing.

Her refusal made its way to the superintendent’s office and they fired her. Now she's suing the school board and the district for $30,000 or more. More ... My son, Palmer, is 15 years old and, like most teens, eager for his next birthday so he can hit the road. He decided a long time ago he wanted a Jeep Wrangler and has checked out a number of used ones. About a month ago, I saw a Wrangler for sale on my way into town. Palmer got the information, made some phone calls, ran a CARFAX report and arranged for a test drive. More ... Lots of weather this past week. Rain, snow, fog, cloudy, sunshine, Oh, I forgot for a minute, we do live in Michigan.
