Revealing How Amazon Delivers on Michigan’s Mackinac Island
I guess I just took living on a peninsula for granted. Sure, we're nearly surrounded by the Great Lakes, but we're also connected to one of the nation's most heavily traveled shipping routes. This access gives us an endless supply of goods that we can either pick up or, in some cases, have delivered on the same day. But what about Michigan's Mackinac Island (note the last name ISLAND)? How do online delivery giants like Amazon deliver packages to an island that hasn't allowed a motorized vehicle to shore in over 100 years?
Soon Michiganders Will Be Able to Drink Cannabis Soda
Do you want to enjoy cannabis but don't want to smoke it? Soon Michiganders will be able to drink it from a product many have been "Jonesing" for. Before cannabis was legal in Michigan, most people smoked it like a cigarette and called it a joint. Other names for a marijuana cigarette have been doobie, spliff, "J or jay", blunt, bone, airplane, doink, sticky, and I'm sure there are more.

Kalamazoo & Grand Rapids Among the Most Exciting Michigan Cities
A study of the most exciting places in Michigan was recently released that highlighted Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo. I've lived in or near Kalamazoo for nearly 20 years. Even though you'll hear negative junk from some lifelong Kalamazoo residents, I think this area is the perfect place to live. I'm thrilled to see Kalamazoo on this recent study from Movoto.com for the most exciting places in Michigan. Here are some of the key factors considered to come up with the results below:

It's better than the name Yoopers gave people who live in the Lower Peninsula...Trolls.

One Stop Coney Supporting Beijing Kitchen By Giving Away Free Hotdogs
Grand Rapid's own self-proclaimed "third best hot dog" maker, is one of my favorite places to eat.

It looks like Rite Aid has pretty much given up on Michigan. That's a tough but accurate statement, given that 185 stores were operating in Michigan at the beginning of 2024.
