Kansas sucks!

Kansas sucks! Nothing but country music and Jesus stations. So glad to be out of there. Unfortunately, now I'm in Misery.

Last time I drove across Kansas, I listened to Pandora the whole time. And it's always best to drive through Kansas over the night, because there's nothing to look at anyway, so it might as well be dark. It's somehow less depressing.

I had the misfortune of mostly being raised there. So very glad I escaped. I've burned the ruby slippers, and I'm staying over the rainbow.

Allot of fun can happen with 8 hours of darkness around, especially in a corn field

I'll admit, I do sometimes miss how endless the sky can be with no hills, or trees. The Flint Hills area is actually pretty too. And some of the patches of rolling hills where some of the last tallgrass prairie in the world can be found are something you really can't even capture in a photo. The way the grasses sway in the unbroken wind like waves on the sea...

Missouri is barely 4 hours wide, though. Where are you headed?

Bem Meissner Ummm... actually it's those "Amber Waves of Grain" we have to thank for only a small patch of Kansas still having a tallgrass prairie. It used to blanket the entire midwest, sustaining vast herds of buffalo. Now it's maybe a 100 or so square mile patch of ground south of Manhattan (Kansas, not NY).

What's left is beautiful though, and well worth a visit. http://www.nps.gov/tapr/index.htm

I'm straight north of there and just a touch to the West in Iowa, on the Ave of the Saints. I can actually see the Ave. from the office, where I work.
Have a merry Christmas Jason ON (or happy holidays if you prefer)

AMEN to the BBQ idea ! nothin better than a slow roasted side of pork over smoldering aeromatic wood !

NO. If you haven't noticed, those animals by the side of the road for the past several hundred miles are cows, not pigs.

Beef is what the midwest BBQs best. In the Kansas and Missouri areas, the specialties are burnt ends, baby back ribs, and brisket (though Texas is the real brisket specialist).

Bem Meissner said…
Agreed, but I thought he was headin for Ill. and I thought baby back was pork? or is that only in St. Louis ?
And yeah, TEXAS does brisket best.

Baby back just means it's the short ribs near the back. I think most vertebrate species would have them.

So, I asked Andrew Tamm, who filled my Stream with a hundred (sarcasm there) animated gifs and cat pictures to remove me from whatever Circle he has me in where he posts the animated gifs and cat pictures. It was either that or unfollow him and I didn't see any reason to unfollow him. Me asking https://plus.google.com/112885755521259735422/posts/78dwnvvgh4p Then he plusses me onto Public posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/EuuR1tnU3vJ https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/8r6Grcm2Jpj https://plus.google.com/u/0/112885755521259735422/posts/74PgSu6iL2s Then one of his friends (or Circlers) starts plussing me into posts of animated cat gifs : https://plus.google.com/u/0/107120198886093172821/posts/gRW9JhWLs5T Don't get me wrong, I'm all about sarcasm and messing with people, but this seems sort of childish to me. Am I the only one who thinks so? So far I have only blocked people who have overtly spammed a thr...
