Is This the Fastest Speeding Ticket in Michigan History?
"Drive fast, take chances." It's something a friend of mine says as a farewell. The irony of that goodbye is that neither of us has any desire to flex our gas pedals. But that doesn't mean that there aren't diluted souls in Michigan who want to test the limits of mortality and metal by seeing how fast they can push limits. This line of thinking led me to wonder what the fastest speeding ticket in Michigan history was.

Seventeen miles north of Muskegon on the shores of Lake Michigan lies a skeleton – a skeleton that dates all the way back to 1897. On Sylvan Beach is the home of the wreckage of The Contest; a ship that was built in Holland, Michigan in 1863.

Is it Legal to Take Care of Your Neighbors Yard in Michigan?
I always thought that if you do something nice for someone, you'd get a little bit of good karma and you'd make them happy. But, as the phrase goes- "No good deeds go unpunished", meaning just because you're well-intended, doesn't mean people will be excited about what you've accomplished. And...

Also, ticks are not restricted to only affecting pets or humans, as they could easily bounce between the two and hatch offspring furthering the issue.
Historic Michigan Town Is Also The State’s Poorest Town
Let's face it, the bigger the city the richer they are, it's always been that way.
