P.S., in all seriousness, where should I go for lunch today and what should I order? I'm trying to do the full KC Metro BBQ circuit before I return to my beloved LC's.

If you haven't been there, go to Woodyard on Merriam Ln, just west of Lamar.

Lawyers write the rules and they get approved by council. The regulated industry staff enforces them, but only selectively and often erroneously. I have seen firsthand how they look for ways to deny licenses  and use bogus interpretations of the ordinances. I believe strongly that many of the people...

Gates has the best ribs in town and if you don't agree, you're wrong. And they are consistent. Sometimes, though, the guy cutting them may have graduated last in his class at ribtech, or maybe it's just too difficult to cut them correctly when you're not looking at them cuz you're too busy sneering ...

Where's the streetcar?!

Banzai, GI!

Clay is like a classic horror movie character who will always return for a sequel.
I wish he would make like his last plan and be gondola.

Does your Panasonic  DMC-LX3 always shoot in a square aspect ratio or is that a special setting you use?

Mr. Copaken has been very involved in this. Below is the press release. Kansas City Food Trucks Find a Home for First Fridays The Truck Stop in the Crossroads opens this week Kansas City, MO - June 30, 2011 – Starting this Friday, July 1, patrons of First Fridays in the Crossroads will now be able t...

And better than teenage werewolves!

There seem to be more substances available now that tread the thin line between legal and illegal substances you can smoke - synthetic cannabis like K2 for example. I'm gonna have to assume that you have never been in a hookah bar and that you're probably 2x the age of most of the patrons. They smo...

At least make it a different color or slightly raised or something though.

ASTROTURF!

Animal Control is not going to be able to catch these dogs, even if they were to get out of their vehicles, which they probably won't. I see them in CP all the time and these dogs are smart and know how to survive, which means they know to stay away from people. If you're feeling threatened, do what...

Although I haven't thought of this, it seems so obvious. STRETCH, you better make sure there's a bean special that night. And put some whoopie cushions on the picnic table benches.

Totally agree. From what I understand there are a lot of landowners sitting on land waiting for another real estate boom, unwilling to sell to developers now. I am afraid you do not understand. Landowners are sitting on land because no one will buy it because no bank will loan to develop it. It is ...

I think that's the Wilson Group, not Price Bros.

This is largely true, but I wouldn't lump Mariner in with his father/brothers. He is a younger guy who is actually pretty progressive. Spends most of his time in Denver, so he understands what a thriving downtown can do for a city. I can understand being upset with some of the Kemper family decisio...

Do people actually get paid to make that shit? How's that for positive.

Give an example of a bar or restaurant that has unjustifiably been outright denied a liquor license.  Sure, the process is painfully slow, but, I can't think of any really good establishments that had to shut down because a church in their area pulled out their church card. I don't think you unders...

Cheesecake Factory. The one time I ate there, I felt that I had suddenly woken up in the middle of a Hunter Thompson/Ralph Steadman pukatoria nightmare hallucination. I may have even inadvertently committed some violent acts in my desperate maniacal quest to escape at any expense and top speed.

How long do they expect the flooding to last in that area?  It's a goofy reason to ask, but some friends and I are going on a motorcycle trip the first week of August and we've traveled up I29 in the past.  Just wondering if we should be planning an alternate route or not because I've read that the...
