  1. All of this is true and there are towns all over America, even in Texas!, that are just as fucked up. We Kansans hold no monopoly on dumbassery. Doesn't excuse any of it. Just pointing out that morans surround us all.
  2. One funny(not funny?) note in the article is that a local business has a back the blue type sign in the window. The owner of that business was outed as a former onlyfans model by a former City administrator (since fired for these actions) and that was then reported by the newspaper. She has since closed her business. Pretty obvious why the sign was there. To my knowledge it is the only sign for either side in town. I would get you some links to this,Ant, but I really need to get some work done today. You can scan the Record's archives easily. ETA: Goddammit, the layers of this just keep getting deeper. That City Admin was hired without adequate vetting that would have revealed that he had a past history of sexual harrassment at previous employment. The CoP at that time and his wife (city employee) both resigned because the council did nothing about this administrator prior to this mess. That same group of people then hired this CoP . Without a thorough vetting. Seems like there was a lesson to be learned but what do I know? Confusing, I know.
  3. To go full circle, there is this. https://www.hillsborofreepress.com/news/parlour-1886-at-the-elgin-to-change-hands-but-keep-same-great-prices The seller of the restaurant is the wife of the ex-hospital admin.
  4. If you have the time to go even deeper, there is this. http://marionrecord.com/direct/hospital_chief_quits_mum_on_why+5432quits+486f73706974616c2063686965662071756974732c206d756d206f6e20776879 And that Administrator's brother is this guy. https://www.marioncoks.net/people/joel-ensey I'm sure there is no connection at all.
  5. I'm ashamed to say this is my hometown. Brisket is right, most of these fucks around here only care about the 2nd Amendment. The rest of that rag isn't important. Unless the Feds gets involved, I don't see anybody in the State that has the will or want to make this right. Our AG is a POS (sound familiar?)and our well meaning Gov has been rendered toothless by the lege. Fuck
  6. Less than a week ago we had a couple days over 105 and 27 straight days in triple digits. A cold front blew through last night with 80 mph straight winds, knocking out power in our area. It’s 57 this morning. 62 in the house. Power is back on but we won’t need AC for a few hours. It’s a nice respite but it will be hot again soon.
  7. How about a mostly complete set of "History Of Nations" by Henry Cabot Lodge?
  8. Here it is just in case you missed it.
  9. The Royals beat the Mets on a bases loaded walk off balk in the 10th. Really odd ending.
  10. Bobby Witt Jr has gone GS, solo shot and rbi single in his last 3 ABs. Our boy is growing up right in front of us. ETA: Witt is the first Royal ever to have a hit and rbi in 5 consecutive PAs. I’m surprised Brett never did that.
  11. I'm headed out to the CC for his Celebration of Life. Fuck Cancer
  12. Here’s the deal kids. Life is just a series of doors that you go through. But they are one way doors. No going back. You reach a point that you hate those fucking doors. Get off our fucking backs.
  13. Very little of churching is church. Yuvvie out front should have told you.
  14. This is my hope. The angst about the pick is more about the GM and draft director being holdovers from the Dayton Moore regime. The drafting they did at DMs direction was nothing less than horrible. The total WAR from first round picks since 2015 is 5.7 and Brady Singer accounts for 5.9 of that. Lot of negative WAR from the Hunter Doziers of those drafts. The kid seems like a solid player, maybe taken a few slots too early, but athletic enough to move to a more needed position. I'm hopeful he will be a solid ML player.
  15. I be damned. I can check all three of these. Additionally, I had a Ruger Single Six .357 holstered at the convenience store. To be fair, it was more of a general store and they had hitching rails for the local cowboys. I wasn't being any kind of badass. We still miss that El Camino...
  16. Save his sorry ass over and over so that this can happen over and over. Just seems fair.
  17. Immaculate Grid 90 7/9: 🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩 🟩⬜️⬜️ 337 rarity index. Sax was my lowest also.
  18. Frank White had nine GG.
  19. I just got a call that one of my longtime golf buddies is coming home from the hospital to enter Hospice care. He's been fighting esophageal cancer for several years and went to the hospital yesterday with pneumonia. One of the nicest, smartest guys I know. Cancer gives no fucks. He will be the first of our group to go and this will leave a huge hole. I'm trying to get a little work done before the holiday but I might as well go home. Fuck Cancer
