Diane Rehm time to retire.

Friday, February 3rd, 2012

Good Day,

That’s what should be said for the last time, as Diane Rehm retires. Unfortunately she hasn’t retired yet.

Every morning as I get up and start my daily commute to work, I flip on Michigan Radio and enjoy the morning. I arrive at my office, flip on my desktop radio and enjoy more programming from Michigan Radio, then low and behold along comes Diane Rehm’s show, and the sound of her voice is like nails on a chalk board.

Diane Rehm, sounds dead or dying. Please replace her. The second her show comes on, my radio goes off.

shots fired on Fairview st.

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

Early Wednesday morning, as we prepared for bed, two vehicles pulled up to the 400 block of Fairview st.

Six shots fired wildly from a four door sedan as if and a mid sized red suv.

One neighbor had said it sounded like a small caliber pistol, possibly a 22 or 38 semi automatic.
