KCWIRED.COM WEEKEND PLANNER
As mentioned last week, Cinco De Mayo has come and gone. However, Crown Center is going to give everyone who missed it a chance to catch up on all the Latin culture you can take. Starting at around noon today until 11, CC will celebrate the 10th annual Fiesta Kansas City which will feature Latin music as in…a cookah rocha ah cookah a rocha!…. and food and dancing. I expect it to be a lot of fun as usual and weather could not be any better!
For you old timers out there, Fleetwood Mac is performing at the Sprint Center tonight. I’m sure they will put on a good show. The perfect night would entail eating at Margarita’s on SW BLVD and drinking their namesake until show time. Oh and tickets are through TicketMaster.
Got kids? Check out Deanna Farmstead in South Overland Park. It is a very nice setting, in a great part of town with many restaurants and a movie theatre nearby. It is free and open daily.
Have a killer weekend..Oh and by the way, according to Myth Busters, penny’s do not screw up breathalyzers! No wonder!
Peace,
RED LIGHT CAMERAS IN LOW INCOME AREAS
Do not be fooled KCMO residents. If you think that these cameras are only going to be used for handing out tickets you are a moron. Notice where these things are going up. Anything interesting about it? The main purpose is going to be the babysititng of high crime areas if they hand a ticket that is just a plus.
THE WIRE - DUCK AND COVER
If you go East of State Line this weekend remember to duck and cover. It wont help but it sounds like I care.
1 . Can you really call Ruskin Way park a park? I am surprised that they only found one body there.
2. Dog raping dude from Turkey is being sent home...
3. Hispanic grocery stores remain popular targets.
4. Robbing convenient stores is soo 2008. Then again in the east side is is also so 2007. 2006, 2005, etc...........
5. 34th and Orville is a crap hole.This break in is probably the only time anyone has gone to that school in weeks.
We know people are going to get murdered this weekend. Just make sure that it isn't you.

MINO UNDER ATTACK
It appears that Mr. Mino is under attack by a KC blogger that happens to be Hispanic. I will keep this short and sweet because I personally believe that bloggers arguing with other bloggers is pretty worthless.
I dont understand how someone born and raised in the United States can call out an Immigrant from Ecuador from being a sellout. Thats like me calling out someone born in Ireland a sellout because they don't fight for the IRA . Honestly the fact that Mr. Mino is Latino has nothing to do with why I have him post here. I like the story of immigrants coming to this country and actually loving it an nobody had a problem last week when he wasnt discussing the topic of immigration, a topic he is actually familiar wiht and gone through. Others that want to make this an issue can't say the same now can they?
So what if Mr. Mino doesn't belong to the proper latino groups and carry the same latino aproved message. Do we all have to fit into certain race and special interest groups in order to be taken seriously? Give me a break. If that were true this blog would be full of social conservative messages in order for me to 'fit in" to the white conservative groups of the state and country.
I am not sure that Mr. Mino was aware that he had to run his posts throught the Latino Bloggers commisson in charge of "keeping it real"
I guess that hit counts are more important than people to some.
