A dude is wearing sunglasses at a corner hightop. His future is so bright but so is the sunshine pouring in the fourteen picture window panes of Max-n-Marley's dog house. The marquee on the Harbor Theater still reads Marilyn, the last show that final Sunday. The house, bless their heart, never got to repairing that big acrylic H. I have two twitter tags that are dead tweet addresses: HarborTheater and BonfirePubGrill. I guess past Sunday was the big wrap up for the brothers from Chicago. One had returned to selling cars in Grand Rapids already, not what the pair had dreamed when setting out to create a perfect smokehouse restaurant with chefs and martinis and all that. I understand five parties have walked through the defunct Muskegon Athletic Club, and it's probably unboosterly to yell that way, "Keep Walking!" Muskegon Heights school teachers have an uncertain paycheck and most of the businesses at Peck and Broadway have shuttered. Maybe a buck a building was the right price, a cynical thought. Max-n-Marleys is closing .... for two days for maintenance. Just maintenance. 411 Bistro in the Frauenthal has dialed 911. This is a town with a cooking school tantamount to the Culinary Institute of America? COPIA? I am looking for civic leaders to start counting passed out canaries. I am looking for a sign of raised concern. Is it just me or is it a bad sign that Lumberjack Hockey attempts to fill the Walker Ice Arena by flogging dollar beers and dollar hot dogs?
