Dear Olathe, You always manage to find new ways to make your city unbearable to drive. Your street system is easily the worst out of all the cities in the Kansas City metro. I wanted to treat myself to a showing of The Dark Knight on AMC 30’s IMAX screen. Google Maps puts the theater…
Kansas City is giving the Kansas City Power and Light District a much-deserved scolding for its dress code, perceived by many as racist. The one time I went to the meat market district, we stood in line for twenty minutes to get into a bar. A bouncer approached a black guy behind me and told…
I went to the Kansas City Roller Warriors Saturday night with Heather, Amanda and their Chris Cakes brethren. I haven’t attended too many odder things. Popping a squat? I’ve seen Roller Derby on TV before, but never in person. This guy needs to be available for rentals I couldn’t make out any faces from where…
Note: Lots more words in this post than you’re used to. Don’t worry. I’ll give you a podcast version so you can rest your eyes, if need be. mp3 file (4:06) We wanted to try something new Saturday night. We decided on the Kansas City Power and Light District. Fearful of tight parking, we chose…

Rather than go to Arrowhead Stadium for KU-MU, we went to Ugly Joe’s at 103rd and State Line. You see, Arrowhead is clearly in Missouri. Ugly Joe’s is right on the border, making it more suitable for the whole “Border War” mentality. Yeah, that’s it. It was almost a 50/50 KU-MU crowd. Obviously, a similar…
It’s been too long since I last blogged about karaoke. We went to The Red Balloon last night. If you’re unfamiliar, it’s one of Kansas City’s only bars with karaoke seven days a week. Surprisingly, the DJ was the only thing that bugged me about the place. He was in the early stages of growing…
Garth Brooks will do nine shows in Kansas City. Parents, you have one month to convince your kids that Garth Brooks is way cooler than Hannah Montana. Start with an explanation of who Garth Brooks is. Unfortunately, I’m indifferent to Garth. My Hannah Montana money stays in the piggy bank for now. What’s the line…
