Mom says Jesus appears in son's crayons"That inspired me to find this video of Jesus in crayon form . . . Despite the fact I think magic markers would have been more appropriate. Also, the idea of "news" is really just a myth that local consumers have invented for themselves in order to justify ignoring longstanding social problems that aren't easily explainable in a few seconds.

SADLY, THERE HASN'T BEEN A LOT OF CELEBRATION OVER THE FACT THAT ONCE AGAIN MISSOURI WILL MOST LIKELY LEAD THE NATION IN METH PRODUCTION THIS YEAR!!!
The stat is not only a sobering look at economic reality on local streets but also a glimpse at what kind of biz development has really taken hold in the state despite so many tax breaks put forth by politicos.
Last year we lost the title to Kentucky . . . But the title is coming home yet again!!!
I'm not sure that this story will show up under the #Show-Me Pride tag but it's a fact that Kansas City media has ignored thus far . . . And should show up later in the day now that we've put it on blast. Natch.

Patrol: Missouri likely to reclaim its title as meth capital
It’s time to award Missouri the status of the meth production capital of America.

All of this while running one of the most relevant blogs in Kansas City that you should make a MUST READ. 
ALREADY back in Victoria's Secret lingerie shape . . . As evidenced by this rather gully gallery of her work that I'm linking for the overnight. I guess the resilience of Ms. Kerr should be an inspiration to us all . . . Speaking of reasons to live . . .
JON BON JOVI IS NOT DEAD DESPITE SOCIAL MEDIA RUMORS!!!!
A dedication and I'm not ashamed to note that this is one of my favorite songs that defined Jr. High . ..
LONG LIVE BON JOVI!!!
Sure, none of this has much to do with Kansas City Proper except for the fact that lingerie models and the legacy of hair bands make life worth living if a late night visit to Westport is any indication.
Soooooooooooo, the circle of life (thankfully) continues and we're gearing up for more local content, links, debate and discussion and probably more drama . . . Hopefully, we're back to this hot mess we call Kansas City in just a few . . . STAY TUNED!!!
Yesterday's spoiler victory was fun but still meaningless.
The slight statistical anomaly which offers an INFINITESIMAL likelihood that The Chiefs could make the playoffs is like using the term "investment" to describe the purchase of a lottery ticket.
Furthermore . . .
I'LL BET 1000 (WORTHLESS) TKC BONUS POINTS VERSUS 500 BUCKS THAT THE CHIEFS WON'T MAKE IT TO THE PLAYOFFS THIS SEASON!!!
Fanboys can deride my knowledge of the game . . . At the end of the season they can pout like the rest of the Chiefs who will remains AT HOME when it comes playoff time. TKC TOLD YOU SO FIRST!!! Natch.

KANSAS CITY PROPER CAN'T EVEN TAKE CARE OF POTHOLES, BROKEN WATER MAINS AND STEEL PLATES!!! Additionally, the frivolous request puts cyclists in danger and gives them an unwarranted sense of entitlement against car and trucks that leads to so much conflict on local roads.

To quote one of my heroes, John Bender, from the classic 80's move The Breakfast Club . . . "Not even close . . . BUD!!!"
A quick recap of the current sitch . . .
Local East Side Leader Clinton Adams earned a TOTAL VICTORY with his efforts to secure a map that was formulated after months and weeks of discussion among the Redistricting Committee.
The map protected minority voting rights and evened out growing population numbers in the Northland.
However . . .
Let's remember at the last minute a cadre of angry white people from Brookside/Waldo and South KC bemoaned the process.
Some say they were stirred up by Council Dude John Sharp . . . However, I noticed the Brookside/Waldo folks really didn't want anything to do with South KC and their reaction seemed a bit unexpected . . . Given that they're only fighting over a few blocks.
Nevertheless . . .
NOW THE LATEST ITEM THAT HAS THE LAST REMAINING WHITE PEOPLE IN KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI STIRRING IS THE WORD OF AN EFFORT TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF AT-LARGE COUNCIL PEOPLE!!!
We've blogged this before and the idea isn't new . . .
HOWEVER, AN E-MAIL FROM CLINTON ADAMS IS CIRCULATING AMONG THE WHITE FOLKS OF BROOKSIDE/WALDO AND CAUSING A BIT OF PANIC!!!
Here's a passage that's causing fear:
"This 6-6 configuration is the gravamen of the inequities in the city electoral process that denies our communities equitable representation on the council. We have to succeed and in my view we have to stick with a 9-3 model."
Yep . . .
NOW THERE'S OPEN TALK OF CITY COUNCIL REALIGNMENT THAT STRIKES FEAR IN THE HEARTS OF MANY (WHITE PEOPLE) IN BROOKSIDE/WALDO!!!
Quickly . . .
The pros of a council realignment . . .
- A chance for more direct access to Council members . . .
- Smaller Districts make it easier for a neighborhood candidate to get elected . . .
- Presumably, a smaller District makes a grassroots campaign possible . . . But big money candidates still win in every context.
The cons . . .
- Kansas City white people know this will lead to more minorities on the City Council . . .
- The current configuration of the City Council makes it (theoretically) more difficult for a minority candidate to win "At-Large" . . . The current configuration of the Council and lack of minority representation proves this out . . . But, SOME PEOPLE LIKE IT THAT WAY!!!
So . . . It's back to the drawing board regarding how we're going to cut up Kansas City . . .
Remember that the last debate left a lot of people with hurt feelings . . . IF this discussion really gets going . . . Expect even more divisive debate this time around as well.
