Re: A day in Lawrence

My wife, newborn daughter, and I walked Mass Street for a few hours yesterday.  Lots going on.  Lots of new restaurants and stores.  Several stores appear to have been recently renovated. We had drinks @ 715 - Which were great.  The menu looks fantastic.  We were there with about 5 or 6 other tables...

Re: Grilling advice

For the planks - you can go to Home Depot and purchase UNTREATED Cedar Fencing - Then just have one of the dudes cut it into 8 to 10 inch chunks for you.  The focus is on untreated wood.  The chemicals and such in the treated lumber will likely make the food taste terrible, or worse, make you sick. ...

Outfitting a new building

Our family business has just finished our new building (in Tulsa).  Its a warehouse style building with open floor plans, exposed brick interiors, stained cement floors and hickory wood throughout.  It has all the vents and plumbing exposed in the ceilings.  Its really pretty similar to many of the ...

Re: OFFICIAL - Performing Arts Center construction

I am in NYC right now and the former KC residents (grew up in Prairie Village, college @ KU) were inquiring how it was going.  It helps that the girl's dad has a view from his office and updates her frequently.

Re: Wireless Modem/Router (All in One)

I'm not sure whether Time Warner is going to be too keen on letting a foreign modem on their network. They might, but I've never tried. I'm pretty sure you'll at least need to call them and get your new device's MAC cleared. Per their customer support chat folks, these are approved for their networ...

Wireless Modem/Router (All in One)

I want to get a new modem/router combo.  I have seen quite a few of these on the web and was wondering if anyone has any experience (positive or negative) with them.  Also, I am on TimeWarner downtown, if that matters.  Our router is pretty old and we are want to tuck it away as we are making room f...

Re: District 9

By far, the best part of the movie was the ending.  Not because of how good the ending was, but because I got to get the heck out of the theater and begin the process of forgetting that piece of a movie.

Re: Does anyone else see (or hear) this: F-14 over KC???

Its highly unlikely that it was an F-14 - They were retired a number of years ago and most are sitting around or have been taken apart. As for an F-22, I really hope it was one, because they are badass and KC needs one, just in case. I was playing golf @ the National yesterday in Parkville and saw a...

The huge John Brown painting was hilarious.  It was up during most breaks in the game and on the big screen over center court.  I do not think that they showed it on the broadcast.
