KCMOSD = YOU SUCK
WHO THE HELL ARE YOU HIRING! How is that a little girl can get raped one day in a classroom and a little boy can get sexually assaulted on a bus AND NONE OF YOUR EMPLOYEES were there to stop it from happening? What a disaster!
I hope to god that the East Side of KCMO rises up and says enough is enough and rids themselves of the current system. THIS IS YOUR DISTRICT AND YOUR KIDS, YOU HAVE A SAY. Don't take this crap. The district works for you, they are paid by you and the answer to YOU.
- You should be demanding that your kids receive a quality education
- You should be demanding that your kids can be transported to and from school without getting assaulted
- You should demand that your kids aren't getting raped in classrooms while school is in session.
- You should demand that teachers listen to your kids and take them seriously when they SAY THEY WERE RAPED.
Where are the ministers and activist? Should they not be organizing protests and fighting for the safety of your kids? These aren't outrageous demands to ask of your school district yet they continue to be ignored.
Good lord this crap pisses me off. THESE ARE KIDS!
THE WIRE - 1 MURDER? SLACKERS.......
If you want to keep your jobs as murderers in this economy I am going to have to see an increase in your production.
1. Making new "friends" in the East side can be difficult. Murdered, Robbed - 39th Wabash.
2. Harrisonville cops don't play.

JOCO POWER MOMS
This week my oldest daughter ends her first year in the Blue Valley School District and let me tell you, it has been an eye opener. Don't get me wrong, we moved out South so that we could get our kids into the district. What we didn't plan on were some of the psychotic mothers that reside South of 135th street.
The JOCO Power Moms are pathetic creatures between the age of 35-45 that typically have a marriage in which she is neglected and children that she believes are under achievers. The reason that the woman is neglected is no seceret once they open their mouth to speak to you because the snobbery and bitchyness spews from their mouths like a popped implant.
Most of these women are former sorrority girls that try to recreate their drunken memories in the cul de sacs that they live in. They are always trying to acheive power by stabbing their friends in the back, intimidating unsuspecting mothers and playdate blackmale. They will hold up your building permits in your HOA and they will make sure that your kid plays the tree in the class play through their work in the PTO.
It is easy to spot these women so don't fear, I will touch on that later this week.
In the meantime if you run into one of these uppity women don't take their crap. It is our job as a community to check these bitches and end their power trips. Life is too short(tm Todd Shaw) to deal with their crap. Most of us that live out this way just want to enjoy life, not control lives.

Taking a Pelosi
Today I was at a client site and one of the guys said that he had to go "take a Pelosi" before we could leave.
SHAWN JOHNSON KEEPS WINNING
I hate this show almost as much as I hat liberalism BUT I have to congratulate the winner.I have been a fan of this little lady ever since I first heard her story before the Olympics. Anyone that can't cheer for a gal from the Midwest with a killer smile is a communist pig.
WEDNESDAYS WITH BILL
Bill is back again this week with some more great info for homeowners in the Metro. I always look forward to these because frankly I am clueless when it comes to home repairs etc..
Enjoy,

Energy Tax Credits for Windows
The Energy Star Rating: Is It Good Enough?
The short answer: Yes….and no!
Back in 2007, you could install any Energy Star rated window to qualify for the government energy tax credit. Millions of people had replacement windows installed and took advantage of the program. The tax credits expired at the end of 2007 and were not renewed for 2008. Thankfully, they were reinstated for 2009 and 2010.
BUT!
For 2009, the government changed the rules! No longer is the Energy Star label enough to guarantee you windows qualify for the energy tax credits. A little explanation of the factors involved is warranted. Below is an example of the performance rating label found on all new windows:
The two important ratings here are the U-factor and the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient. These are just technical terms for the energy efficiency of the window. This windows IS Energy Star rated! If they were installed in 2007 you would qualify for the tax credit. The new parameters are .30 for each measurement. This window would NOT qualify for the 2009 tax credit!
What do those measurements mean?
U-Factor measures the rate of heat transfer and tells you how well the window insulates. The lower the U-Factor, the better the window insulates. U-Factor values generally range from 0.25 to 1.25
Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) measures the fraction of solar energy admitted and tells you how well the product blocks heat caused by sunlight. The lower the SHGC, the less solar heat the window transmits. SHGC is measured on a scale of 0 to 1; values typically range from 0.25 to 0.80.
This change in parameters left many window manufacturers scrambling to meet these new requirements. This resulted in additional testing time as well as increased costs. Basically, since the windows cost more, you have to spend more money to get your tax credit!
Ok, so you replaced your windows this year and your windows DON’T meet the 30/30 standards…are you out of luck? Thankfully, no! We all know how efficient the government can be! They realized, after the fact, that many windows didn’t meet the new standards and gave the industry (and homeowners) are reprieve until June 1, 2009. If you had windows installed before June 1st and they have the Energy Star label, they DO qualify for the tax credits! After June 1st your windows must meet the 30/30 standards….unless they change their minds again!
So how much of a tax credit do I qualify for? Basically for windows, you get 30% of the window price with a maximum tax credit of $1,500.00. So in order to get the full credit, you will spend at least $5,000 on your windows. Many times this isn’t a problem since vinyl replacement windows average around $400-500 installed. With windows, you generally get what you pay for. More money = more features. Be sure to check out your installer to make sure they are qualified to install windows properly. This is one area where you do NOT want to skimp!
Check out my website, we install all kinds of windows, whether full frame new construction style windows or replacement windows. Our in-house installers know how to do the job right, the first time! No surprises! Check me out at: http://www.paintproinc.net/

STOP SNITCHIN - RAPE EDITION
If you are a parent in the KCMO school district you should REFUSE to send your kids back next year unless the state takes over the district. YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT YOUR KID GETTING RAPED IN A CLASSROOM!
HOLY CRAP, KCMO is nothing more than hell with a nice Arena.
If you are a leader, parent, activist, business owner or resident of KCMO you should be ashamed of yourselves. What future do these kids have?
The people that did this need to face charges as adults and locked up for a long time.
THE WIRE - WHO SHOT YA
What happens when your Police Chief, Mayor and City Counsel are blind, deaf and dumb?
1. WTF KCMO? You have 3 people in the car and none of them can aim or drive? I use to think our killers were skilled professionals, not anymore.
2. Could this one be payback for the S KC convenient store shooting? 93rd and Bales, dead.
3. You can't even get your car washed in KCMO without getting shot.
