The tudor brown is a fairly dark brown but not too dark. If you have a very tudor style with half timbering, it's a great brown for your trim. I am not a fan of the milk chocolate, very creamy browns.
That's exactly what I bought yesterday at the Ace Hardare in Westport...unfortunately it came out more red than brown So I took it back over lunch and they tried it again to no avail. The manager thinks they have the wrong formula or something. So now I'm back to where I started. I'm going to Sherwin Williams Saturday morning and hopefully I can get something that works.
That's freaking weird... went to Wendy's several times the past few weeks, and drove by Sunday to see them blow torching the sign in half and boarding up the windows.

Wife and I are considering joining. Noticed that KSU DE great Ian Campbell is a personal trainer there. Dude would probably break this jayhawk in half!
I drive down Wornall everyday and unexpectedly saw the Wendy's was closed.
The whole south side of 75th needs to be redeveloped more in the fashion of the north side, not to mention the entire stretch of Wornall south to 85th needs to be redeveloped. I don't even think there's a plan currently, but something like Vision Metcalf or whatever is needed.

Great little gym that is never that crowded. They offer month-by-month membership. So join for one month, if you don't like or use it, quit your membership.
I am told Kennedy's has changed ownership and have heard a rumor that it's becoming a night club after St. Pat's day. Wha?! I'm not sure what that means. It's pretty small, has glass around the whole thing, I don't know how it could be a night club in the traditional sense.

Tobacco-based businesses, like cigar shops, are not covered by the smoking ban. If you get more than 80% of your revenue from tobacco or tobacco smoking paraphernalia and your shop is separately ventilated, you can puff away.
Well, tobacco is still legal, they figure you're not going in there unless you already smoke, and you have to show proof of age. We can argue whether that is the best place for it, but I've got to think that they wouldn't be doing it if they didn't think they could make money.
