I think it's shocking to see that 52.4 cents (over half) of every federal tax dollar we pay goes just for the military and payment on the National Debt.

Here's an online article breaking down where your taxes go in federal spending: http://money.aol.com/tax/where-your-tax-dollars-go?icid=100214839x1200070040x1200003074 Cents of every federal dollar in taxes paid goes to: Military:   42.2 cents -- Current Military and war spending used 28.7 cents, in...

Now, we only have to come up with a follow-up line of products: Lipitor Bacon. Lipitor Butter. Lipitor Pasta Alfredo.  Lipitor M&Ms.  I'm surprised Paul Newman hasn't already done this.

Crisco--now with Lipitor.

Now there is an idea for a new product: Lipitor gravy.

I think they should offer Lipitor as a side dish.

Does the Federal Reserve Bank web site have that type of information?

I wish AT&T would rent out, and the City let them, LED and other advertising signage on the side of the Longlines Building.  It would help turn the Power & Light Building into a mini-Times Square-like area.  It would create more visual excitement in the District.

That's not a very good sign. 

The Billy Barty Memorial Swimming Pool. 

What if they made the City Market a World Trade Zone, and allowed duty free items to be sold?  I don't really know how that all works, but it would be neat to bring imports into the Market.

Yes Midtown, the two old buildings to the east of the new building.

That's one of those art-deco style buildings that rarely gets noticed by anyone other than people who admire the style.

Is that the building also known as the Chapman Studios building on the SE corner of 17th and Wyandotte?

That's my trademark and I reserve it for home parties.

They should have added more exceptions to the dress code: No bad hair-pieces. No plaid ties or jackets. No comb-overs. No cougars in leopard-print stretch pants over 30-waist size. No big hair on women. No scary fake fingernails on women over 1/2 inch from fingertip. No patrons admitted with gold, f...

The Mainstreet/Empire was supposed to open in June, but because of the slow progress of the renovation, the opening has been rescheduled for Fall.

I didn't know the Holiday Inn (and all the other flags it was before that) was so old.  Cool pic. The Aladdin was completed in 1925, and was said to be the tallest building in Kansas City at that time. http://www.kchistory.org/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/Mrs&CISOPTR=855&CISOBOX=1&REC...

I never knew the Old Chelsea Theater was at 13th and Broadway. I thought it was always in the River Market on Wyandotte near 3rd.

And creepy young men as well.  Don't forget the creepy women in the area.  Probably some creepy bisexuals as well.

The site mentioned earlier in the thread was that bounded by I-670, 16th St., Wyandotte, and Baltimore.
