Rumblings of Unsubstantiated Rumors...

MUSKEGON, MI (The broken city b y the lake) - We have to ask if there is any truth to the rumor that there is a team of, rather imnpressive, high powered attorneys (one with considerable federal clout) are in Chicago, gathering their legal pads, setting their Rollexes to Eastern time and planning to descend (in multiple filings, here, as well as in Lansing) upon this broken city and some of it's individual players...Like most rumors, this is probably not real. But then again, one can only ponder, slow down, smile and wave.

One other rumor that we are sure needs to be stopped before it becomes a non-issue concerns the reported, third hand, sighting of our well-known Circle Dance Conductor Pro-tem and Alfred E. Neuman Society Boardmember "Bud" Boardboy, dancing about in nothing but what appeared to be a flimsy white sheet, somewhere around Fifth Street. This we are sure is not true; there is more than likely a perfectly good reason for the two-inch sequined pumps and the Sea-Spray Musk residue behind the garage.

Folks, we need to be careful about these uncertified, unverified, rumors, so check your local Circle Dance Committee and let us hear from you!.

hey since they want to get rid of "old" battered houses, why haven't they gotten rid of the many other houses in lovely Muskegon that fit that description? One on the corner of Muskegon and 6th has broken railings and looks unlived in, one on Third street has been declared unlivable and boarded up for years, another one between Peck and Sandford has boards and sheets, among many others that should have been gone long before Victor's house. What about all the slumlord homes that manage to stay standing because the renters are afraid to say anything as they would lose the only home they can afford to live in; what about boarded up homes that are on the market forever; etc. Whatever happened to people helping each other to rebuild their lives. Is it that easy to ruin someone or run them out of town because you don't like them? Gee Whiz sounds like the ole tar and feather style of living just because you don't live the way someone wants you to. Sounds like the Big D word to me "DISCRIMINATION".

There should be a major lawsuit on this one.
