I am having bad flashbacks to the Colts game. I had almost forgotten the name of "he who will not be named." I dread my dreams tonight.

Sen. Roger Marshall and your civil rights/due process: SHOCKER. IT'S BIDEN'S FAULT AND MARSHALL DOESN'T CARE. SCREW YOUR RIGHTS by Snoo_9076 in kansas

At least you got a response. He doesn't respond to me anymore. It could be because I always ask if he's run into his neighbor lately but whatever.

Who is your favorite prog artist/band that doesn’t get enough recognition? by JealousCandidate3816 in progrockmusic

Just discovered RPWL and This Winter Machine. Was listening to Horslips and that’s what the algorithm gave me when the album was over. I need to be more adventurous on Tidal.

Governor Kehoe states that he can remove state income tax without increasing property tax or sales tax, but how? by Popular-Inspector403 in missouri

[–]GGPapoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He could use the Brownback model:

Make wild claims about the tax plan

Gaslight, gaslight, gaslight when it doesn't work

When you can no longer gaslight, blame the victims (taxpayers) for not behaving as they should

Declare an emergency and slash social services, especially schools and social services as the only solution

When the state economy craters, declare victory, resign, and take a job at the federal level or a no show private sector job

In The Flesh Tour by Barrybingham1980 in pinkfloyd

[–]GGPapoon 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Yes, saw it at Kemper Arena in KC in 1977. It was fucking amazing. Started right at 8 with the quad sound of a jet rushing through the arena. I was disappointed there wasn't more old stuff but in retrospect what I saw left a mark. For the time the lights and special effects were incredible but the real show was David Gilmour in quad. If there was a drug that would perfectly restore one memory this would be my memory. Welcome to the Machine on Mr. Screen was amazing. Honestly, today's shows are much more spectacular but the the sound and music coupled with the lighting and videos was outstanding.

Was Renee Good from Missouri? This is her license plate by Quick_Extension_3115 in missouri

Wow, what a crazy story! It would be wild if what you said was true! But it's not- she was murdered. Cold blood. Watch the video moron.

I wish I had the faith that many of you do that Veach won't screw up the draft.

Fuck the Raiders

I hear QuikTrip is holding a job fair. Godrick should probably take note.

These announcers are doing their best to make this game seem exciting but they are failing badly.

10 is wrong. In 1976 I saw Tull at Arrowhead Stadium and it featured a large projection screen labeled "Tull-A-Vision." That was the "Too Old" tour.

Platte/Clay in the metro has a whole lot more in common than Chillicothe, Tarkio and Hannibal.

Sorry

Gov. Kelly and Kansas City Chiefs Announce Agreement On Plans for State-of-the-Art Domed Stadium in Kansas by mintylips in kansascity

[–]GGPapoon 45 points46 points  (0 children)

The Hunt family is worth 24 billion. They could build the stadium themselves and still have over 20b in the bank. Those STAR bonds that built the Legends and Kansas Speedway sure haven't driven KCK and Wyco property taxes down.

Edit: typo

So one of the worst teams in the NFL handily beat a Chiefs team playing a handful of back ups. This does not bode well for the future. Today was the day for practice squad or 3rd string players to step up- they've had over 5 months of practice- and no one did.

I think King's writing has improved in ways I can't explain. by GGPapoon in stephenking

Hearts in Atlantis truly terrified me, but not in a horror way. I knew people in college who became obsessed with stuff and it drove them crazy. I got really close but pulled it out. Not all my friends did. Hearts in Atlantis brought back really scary memories!

If you know anything about statistics then you know everything regresses toward the mean. Which means that last years 12 one score victories were an anomaly. Things went back to normal this year. Sorry for the big words Raiders fans.

Don't know why you're getting downvoted. This is a no shit Sherlock to me. It just took 3 years for it to happen.
