The Bring IKEA to KC Facebook page is attempting to verify a rumor that Merriam residents have received letters stating that IKEA is coming within 2 years. Sounds false to me.

I believe it's your responsibility. It might be covered by your homeowner's insurance. Personally, I would trim them. If a tree branch falls on their roof, their love of shade will take a backseat to getting you to pay for damages. If the trees are growing over power lines, you have an additional re...

Frankly, it feels like we got trolled. By an urbanist. That's a first for me.

Yes, because the crisis in the Middle East is directly attributable to the President.

I've never seen "risk" used in the plural.

That guy sounds like a reasonable person with interesting ideas. I think the diverging diamond pictured in the Atlantic is in Springfield. It's ridiculously confusing and every bit as pedestrian unfriendly as he makes it out to be. Westport dodged a bullet when the proposal to put one at SW Trfy and...

Is the lack of activity downtown because of wide, empty streets or are there wide, empty streets because there is a lack of activity downtown? The streets were wide when downtown was booming, and they were wide when downtown hit bottom. So I'm going to say that the streets are empty because of a la...

Is it possible ... ...that you are reading way too much into this? Did they get their man? It looks like they did and maybe the tactics used in this case worked to the PD's advantage Not at all. The next logical question after the police said they sat on the announcement is "are there any othe...

True. But I spent a ton of time there when I was too young to notice how much of a dump it was.

This makes me sad.

Weirdly, the fact that this is year 4 of people arguing that we can't decide if Cassel's performance is because of mitigating factors like poor playcalling, bad offensive line play, and a lack of good targets, means that Bobbyhawks is right. If ownership/GM can't put together a good enough team in t...

Reports are that the guy was on the Federal watchlist, which either means that list is ginormous or that it is a pretty serious thing. I can't believe I bit on the terrible reporting of the story. Amazing how freaking wrong people can be and how little you can trust the local news for any informati...

Figures he'd eat at a bbq place with starched white tablecloths.

No point now. With @NO, SD, Baltimore, @Tampa coming up, 1-5 or 0-6 are possiblities. The playoffs are not. Might as well wait until January to fire everyone.

Now I think you're just trolling. If you want a discussion, start a separate topic for this.

This place is a great resource if you're serious about talking about downtown KC. I would go so far as to say damn near authoritative. I don't know who this blogger guy is, but it's clear that he's not spent much time reading the things that are routinely discussed here. Well, the search function d...

Touche, anonymous people. Since my last comment was taken down after I posted it, I'll simply let you know that I'm going to feature your enlightened conversation tomorrow on my blog. There I will use excessive amounts of commas and be a condescending prick, I'm sure, but I will also provide the li...
