Last year...........lost 40 lbs, learned guitar, bought a business, fell in love. This year...........do it right, again.  Moderation in MOST things.  More sleep.  More time with friends.  Make the house what I say I'm going to make it.  Travel more cities.  Be increasingly irreverent and question n...

KCMax, don't know if you ever really got a response to your original questions.  I think the house you are considering is on Madison street, just north of 17th.  It's a great house and I think a very good value.  I bought a home earlier this year, otherwise I would be looking seriously at this one. ...

Lenexa............. a hot Mrs. Santa suit sounds intruiging.  However, she's naughty all the rest of the year (L+L, that's part of what makes her a girlfriend worth gifting).

KCMetro.........Photo of us in frame is already covered by her sister.

Graziei...........

Thanks y'all.  Tied up the last couple of hours. She is really not tech at all, but she does love music.  So, the ipod is a consideration, but trying to get her something more feminine.  You know?  Travel is her thing, but she already has arranged and budgeted for upcoming trips. Yes, L+L, $500 is a...

Last night I went to pick up "the" gift I was to get for my girlfriend.  Out of stock and maybe not to be stocked again.  Sh*t!!!!!!!!!! Spent the rest the evening in shoppers hell, looking for an inspired replacement.  Do any of you creative types out there have a suggestion as to a "...

OK, this is a well kept secret, so don't tell anyone.  Boveri Real Estate doubles as an art gallery on First Fridays.  The space is cool, shows all art media well and the events are amazingly well attended.  Maybe best of all, they don't charge commissions.  What's up with that? Your friend should t...

Old Noreaster....... I'd like to suggest that you read your post with an open mind.  It looks like you are engendering the idea that you've got a "them and us" situation.  Just because it's new people who are spending money and promoting change, it's still bias at work.  You and others hav...

Scartva.........A very cool piece of nearly direct marketing.  Thanks for all the info and thanks for bringing your great store downtown.

I was just at Teadrops.  Being an apostle for the new downtown, I asked when they were going to move downtown.  The clerk told me they are opening another store in the City Market in a couple of months.  Said the owner had just signed the lease and is going in over by Succotash.  Seriously good addi...

ShowMeKC ..............
What makes you think that 500 East 8th is mostly equipment?  It's my understanding that it's 90% administrative offices for the region.

KCMax.........I just read that article a few moments ago, and that quote jumped off the page.  What a testimonial, and from Olathe!!!!!!

Staying at Hotel Phillips.  Otherwise, looking for the best options downtown for food, drink, mayhem.

Who is handling the sale?

I have to agree with Grind.  Nashville has some interesting historic and contemporary pieces, but it's seriously disconnected.  You can feel it as you walk the neighborhoods, that there is a sense of isolation to the towns developments.  People I know there attribute it to the nature of southern pow...

I'm just trying to make light of it, but the question is real.  A massive, unmarked, black helicopter over downtown in the middle of the afternoon bears some curiosity.

It was big, it was black, and it wasn't Shaq.

OK, somebody has to bring up this subject, but does anyone have any info on the khaki/black, huey type helicopter that was flying over the west side of downtown and circling Wheeler airport this afternoon? No markings, did not land.  Circled and headed southwest.  We spotted it two weeks ago, also o...

Hardcopy, I'm off for a bourbon and koala.  I intuit that you could use a stiff one too, I'm buying.

Did happy hour start early, or is this Koala Lampoon (sic)?

This owner of Trio is an acquaintance of mine.  I've found him to be a thoughtful and civilized person.  As result, I have followed this topic with interest. It is my intention to go back to Trio and either talk with him and/or the staff and see what more I can find out.  Barkeeps can sometimes be g...
