The pool will always be there. What do you think implants are for?
Which brings to mind Undercover Boss. I seldom watch however on one of the few the episodes was about Twin Peaks I believe. One of the waitresses had talked about wanting her boobs enlarged to fit in better. At the end of the show the big boss rewards employees and guess what her reward was.

Almost forgot to mention this...

I was entertaining some of my coworkers in P&L, who were in town for the Cerner Health Conference a few weeks back, and they mentioned several times at how clean and busy KC's downtown was. They also commented that the Power & Light district looked like it had been there for decades, specifically mentioning the brick paver sidewalks. I laughed, as I never have had that impression of P&L, but still interesting to think others may have that impression. For what it is worth, they live in LA and had a great time here.

Rally House will be a nice addition. I usually go to the one on the Plaza, but it can be a pain to find a place to park and it's always so busy.

The ability for cordish to close grand whenever they want needs to be reexamined by the city. They had grand closed all of yesterday. In the evening there was literally nothing going on or need to do so.

There was like one car too. It was very bizarre. Sometimes they can be very rude about even pedestrian access.

Family-Friendly PNC Plaza Opens in Power & Light District
PNC Bank is partnering with the Power & Light District to rebrand an outdoor space in the downtown entertainment area “PNC Plaza” and plans to make it a hub for family-friendly activities.

The plaza at the base of the H&R Block tower was formerly called Elements Courtyard because of its fountain and fire feature. It’s located near several restaurants including Insomnia Cookies, The Mixx, Drunken Fish and the Whopper Bar.

Designed to be a community gathering space, PNC Plaza will hold family-friendly events and programs, according to a press release, and also be a place where residents and visitors can relax.

For Pittsburgh-based PNC, it’s the latest example of the bank’s push to raise its profile in Kansas City.

This is really confusing for me. It's an under used area but I can't tell if this will actually fix it. The focus on family is weird too.

My guess is nothing changed. They could improve it by just offering better food options.
