At 12 bucks a plate you can’t go wrong as anyone who has sampled the summertime ribs-to-go can duly attest. One must consider, however, there will be limited quantities so call ahead for reservations to guarantee a plate or just stop in if you want to take your chances but you took a chance on the Mega Millions and that didn’t work out so….(231)652-6020.
In Pretty Woman Richard Gere’s character tells Julia Roberts “People's reactions to opera the first time they see it is very dramatic; they either love it or they hate it.

Years ago at a faraway bar during Halloween I witnessed three people walking in step as if stuck together. They wore sunglasses and bore white canes and mouse ears and noses.
You got it, three blind mice.
The best part was when the three ordered shots and downed them in sync, then waddled their way back out.
