on my morning walk today, i spotted and picked up and flattened and took home to the trash an empty Foster's can. Takes very little talent to make the place look better each day.

Didn't the AR movie have a pretty cool dirt bike racing scene with a bunch of classics like Bultaco, Penton, Husky, Norton etc tearing it up?

I was quite disappointed that WRIF ended the Alice’s Restaurant tradition this year, tuned in at noon as usual only to hear Lions pregame. That was a 30+ year tradition in Detroit

I looked at the AR movie on Shitube and sure enough there is a racing scene and also scenes of people working on their motor-sicles.

I can't stand Will Ferrel. He has that Jerry Lewis, Jim Carrey vibe that just rubs me the wrong way.

I'm glad we kept this thread as it has the newspaper article that started it all off.

At 8 am, 1 pm and 4 pm (EST), www.wmgk.com will be playing Alice's Restaurant , the original 1967 version.
