Micah must be retired from KU!

No. I've never gone because, as C1 pointed out, it will be rainy that day.

Yes, I have and I will this year. This is the answer to a question posed by Jersey_Girl.

The Kansas Relays begin Wednesday, April 15 and conclude Saturday, April 18. Admission into the meet will be allowed only by those people wearing a 2009 Kansas Relays button.

Buttons will cost $10 for adults and are good for admission for all four days of the Kansas Relays. A group discount will be applied to all orders of 10 or more adult Kansas Relays admission buttons. These can be purchased through the ticket office. Discount buttons for Senior Citizens and all students with a valid ID are $5. Children under the age of five, KU students and military personnel are free with proper identification. Also offered is a Kansas Relays Family Pack, consisting of two adult and two student admissions for just $20.

autie they must not be native Texans if they claim they are embarassed to be from there. If they are natives, then i'm embarassed for them over those comments.

Rick Perry is a bufoon, and we will all be so proud when he finally leaves office. He's the only governor in our history to be re-elected without winning more than 50% of the popular vote. In his last election I believe he carried something like 34% because there were three candidates. Sort of like how Bush used Nader in 2000, Perry used Friedman in his last election.

Thanks, Irish. I thought they were around this time of year. I have a birthday coming up next month and my sister couldn't find a single hotel room in town and I kept hearing it was because of the relays, but that didn't seem right.
