We're hopeful he'll get an attractive scholarship offer... realizing it's a competitive world out there. He's a national merit semifinalist, top 1% of his class of 600, and scored a 36 on his ACT (one of Nebraska's "Magnificient Seven"  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9K1SewGp10 ).  Yes.....

Re: KCMO 18th "most dangerous", KCK 25th "most dangerous"

There are so damn many variable to these studies, they simply don't make sense.  It's not fair to StLouis in the least. The only way to even remotely guess at comparing cities is to somehow have a consistent data collection system which would include everything from what the PD's record, how they r...

Re: Official: KCMO Light Rail

you know, we have a saying at my place of employment.  it goes, "its time to shoot the engineers and get on with the project".  Decide something and start building.  This city is already way behind its peer cities when it comes to mass transit.

Re: The War

I often wonder, had Hitler waited another four years before starting this war..1944-1945, WWII would have had a different outcome; in Germany's favor, IMO.  Why, because of the German development of super weapons.i.e. rocket, jet technologies, etc.

Re: Most other cities building "new" condo towers right and left...

I'm in Minneapolis right now. It's been six years, since I have been here last and the amount of new development in downtown Minneapolis is just incredible. One of the biggest excuses I have used for KC not getting any new towers is due to all the empty warehouses and office buildings we had to fil...
