"One of the extra problems is that before the school year ends, the DQ has a major labor shortage before 4 PM every day, so that at least during such time, the walk-up windows are closed, necessitating a drive-thru visit, where the service may not be…"

"Good job X, in continuing the saga and defending yourself against the unscrupulous scrooge. I only wish that you would have contined in simple language more specifically how the city of Ludington is building their coffers, wages and benefits and…"
"I agree, Willy. The road congestion IS the fault of the customer. And Mason County sheriff (MSCO) should be there at least giving warning that "drivers" should drive on roadways and not use state highway as a turning lane, impeding traffic…"

An Open Letter Showing the Crimes Behind the Fees
Earlier today, I sent a letter to all Ludington City Councilors, appealing the fees of three different FOIA requests made before the advent of a new FOIA Policy, a policy drafted by the same city attorney who imposed outrageous fees for public information which effectively gives him the ability to create his own policy when there are public records that the city would rather not give out. These public records belong to us, we paid for the means of making them and as an investigative…See More

Nothing in the Ludington area is more of a sign of pleasantly warm weather than the spring opening of the Dairy Queen out on Old 31 (PM Highway). When word gets out that the temperature is high…Continue

Mere hours before the convening of the April 8, 2024 meeting of the Ludington City Council, we all had been able to view the nearly full solar eclipse in the sky over this city. With a pair of…Continue

Migration Update
The elves of the Ludington Torch were hopeful that we could move from our current Ning 2.0 network to the Ning 3.0 network shortly after our five year anniversary, but we have got news from them back that they are not currently doing any new migrations to the higher platform at this time. We surmise that there has been problems with the migrations of other Ning sites, because some things do not transfer very well or at all, including videos and group modules.
As they continue to…

Spammertizing
Over the last couple of months our members have swelled due to an advertising push by those who join, post an ad, provide a link, and possibly send messages to other members advocating some product or action.

Downloading Videos
Want to download videos for a thread or just to add to our Videos library, but are having a hard time figuring it out? It's not hard once you know how to do it. First you will need the Video's "Embed" code; on a typical video site like Youtube they will have a "share" button you need to click, you will then see an "Embed" button you need to click. You will see the code all in blue, you need to "copy" (as in copy and paste) this code by going to your copy command.
Now go to the…
