Today at lunch the subject of what Kansas City was known for came up. So we listed off the typical answers that everyone says fountains, parks, boulevards, BBQ, Plaza Lights and Jazz Music. After reviewing this list we came to the conclusion that the KCMO chamber of commerce should be sued for false advertisement and here is why.
- The Fountains don't have enough funding to be run 24/7.
- The Parks are littered in dead bodies, shell casings, drug paraphernalia and gang graffiti.
- The Boulevards take you through the hood.
- The BBQ in this town is nothing more than average. Texas and Memphis have us beat.
- The "Jazz" in this town is scarce and nowhere near a tourist attraction. Nothing like the Blues in New Orleans
So we sat down and came up with things that should replace the above mentioned items in an effort to more accurately describe the city. Keep in mind that I was the only JOCO resident at this luch and the 3 others were from KCMO and NKC.
- Terrible public school system that goes through a new superentendent every year.
- One of the highest per capita murder rates in the Nation.
- A mayor that works out of his house so that he can be by his wife
- Losing professional sports franchises
- An empty train station
Anyways, don't you think it is time to ditch the crap that your city claims to be famous for?
When replacing crappy radio show hosts you do not replace them with even crappier radio show hosts. The program director at 610 Sports has to be on 810's payroll. I only hope that the Royals and Jayhawks get wise and cancel their contracts with this embarrassment of a radio station so that I will never need to go down the dial.
The most embarrassing move has got to be putting the worst sports talk host in the metro (besides Neal Jones) Nick Wright up against Soren Petro. Anyone that has tuned into Wrights attempts at sports talk know what a freaking disaster it is. He is so pathetic that they pulled him off of the Royals post game show.
Just some random thoughts, ideas and beliefs I have compiled that will more than likely piss everyone off at least once.
1 Welfare recipients should be made to wear pok-a-dot clown clothing so that we can see who is sponging off of us.
2. Welfare recipients should only be able to shop at designated stores. The food in these stores should not be better than the food US soldiers are eating while fighting in wars.
3. Union workers should be deported to Mexico and Illegals should stay. Your leaders have overpriced your product which is destroying the manufacturing capability of this country.
4. Government officials should have to make public their office spending in real time. I want to log in and see how much these crooks are spending on lunch.
5. Organized Crime should be left alone. They do a better job of controlling it than local law enforcement.
6. Rapist should be eligible for the Death Penalty
7. People convicted of murder or sex crimes against a child should be punished by the parents. If they want to see the dipped in Battery Acid, so be it.
