In today’s instant society and culture, drive-thrus are a godsend. You can get your coffee, your donuts, your money and your prescription pills via drive-thru.
But not everyone loves them.
August 14, 2012 We had a blast at last year's 'Bricks Flicks!" The feature was "Back To The Future," and several DeLoreans lined the front of the screen. Tonight's film will be the original 'Footloose,' and I am sure there will be plenty of feet at the US-23 Drive-In on Fenton Road.
The Brits are not taking kindly to Justin Bieber‘s comments about Prince William — you know, the country’s future king — and his thinning hair. The Biebs suggested that Prince Billy take Propecia, as if it was that simple.
The Biebs also seemed insensitive, since, as a teen with an enviable head of thick, lush hair, he was speaking from a lofty position with his ill-advised comments. Turns out The Biebs is talking out of turn and hasn’t earned the right to be making such public assertions.
Pop quiz: among whites, blacks, Asians and Hispanics, which are the least likely to own a smartphone?

March 29, 2012 Long before Christopher Lloyd inspired our imagination as Dr. Emmett Brown from "Back To The Future," or "Roger Rabbit's" Judge Doom, he had us in stitches as Reverend Jim Ignatowski from the classic TV series "Taxi."
My son asked me the other day what a yellow traffic light means, and I couldn't stop myself from laughing as I thought about this hilarious scene as Jim takes his driving test.
March 14, 2012 I am a die-hard fan of the "Back To The Future" movie series. I love the concept, the characters, and that time machine! I was able to see a DeLorean at Back To The Bricks a few years back, and there were several of the slick sedans at last year's Bricks Flicks.
As much as I love the fantasy of it all, it looks like more and more of a reality. I brought you a story a few months back about Nike producing the Air Mag, the shoes Marty McFly wore in Part 2 during a stop in 2012. What else is a reality now? A flying DeLorean!
