Father of slain toddler grieves in Missouri jail
God be with him, this is such a heartbreaking story. The power of drug addiction is so tragic. I hope he is able to turn things around for the better.

Suspect in Ottawa killings charged with four counts of first-degree murder; could face death penalty
The so-called pro-lifer is nothing more than a lying hypocrite if that person is also in favor of the death penalty. Flack should spend life in prison in the state that claims all life is beautiful and precious and shouldn't be terminated.

This and that about Petco, AT&T Wireless store and Ross Dress for Less along South Iowa Street
I wonder what the deal is with Ross.
I work in Lenexa, and there is now a Ross sign showing on the shopping center at 119th & Strang Line that contains Dick's Sporting Goods, Old Navy, and famous Footwear. There used to be a Borders there, so I am wondering if that's where Ross is going. I think it's relevant because it's obvious the Ross chain is coming to the area, but it's odd that it has taken so long for the one in Lawrence to open.

St. John School undergoing $2.18 million expansion
I think it was eliminated in the mid-80s due to declining enrollment in the upper grades. I could be wrong though.
When USD 497 decided to change to a middle school format, the St. John school administration surveyed the parents and asked if they would prefer Pre-K thru 5 or Pre-K thru 8, and the overwhelming majority chose the latter. So, the building campaign begun!
Many thanks to all who made it possible!

The rapid descent to being in line with Mississippi at the bottom of the pile shall continue.
Kansas....as backward as you think.

100 years of women voting
Well, if she wants to go ahead and give up her freedom, I say let her. There's several countries in the middle east that would oblige her.

Opinion: There's no worse place than the road for KU football
Wow, such great attitudes, people.
KU should NOT drop football, an idea considered by K-State prior to hiring Bill Snyder in 1989. KU is no where near as abysmal as that program was, it simply needs a chance to start over from the lousy decision by former AD Lew Perkins to fire Mark Mangino and hire the multimillionaire failure that is Turner Gill. After spending the money to improve facilities, that move pretty much set them back 3-4 years. The program is rebuilding and I can already see some improvement over last season, when it just looked completely incompetent. We need to give it a little more time.

100 years of women voting
I love the irony. Now there's plenty of people who would rather women didn't have the vote.
