Lawrence meeting churns ideas for new Arts Industries Commission
The whole concept of the Kansas Creative Arts Industries is wrong. The arts are not and should not be considered an industrial type activity. It is worth supporting only for it's ideals, that it attempts to make life worth living by self expression. Lord knows this state needs to support the arts purely for that reason alone. But the folks at ALEC don't want Kansans to get their ideas from anybody but Fox News. They don't want us to be educated, unless it's by a religious private school, and they certainly don't want us to express ourselves in a creative way unless it appeals to the lowest common denominator. Wake up Kansas! We are being hoodwinked!

Massive undertaking aims to transform Lawrence from artsy to ArtPlace
Take away "the Leftys", artists, creative types, University intellectuals and what kind of town would you have left? I always amuses me when "the Rightys" criticize the the best place to live in Kansas and the people who make it that way.

Editorial: Jersey honor
This has got to be one of the worst LJW editorials I've seen yet, full of back handed compliments, "he was a good player", etc... The Mario's Miracle shot is what KU has been using to pump up the crowd to great effect every year since. He absolutely deserves this. I can't believe the nasty tone of this piece. LJW you suck.

State panel wants more information before ruling on Obama’s ballot eligibility
Good lord people, it doesn't matter where your parents were born. If you were born in the USA you are a US citizen. If you are outside the country when you were born and both your parents are US citizens then you are a US citizen. Didn't you ever have civics class?

Not to mention Romney's father George was born in Mexico. What is it with these people thinking it matters where your parents were born anyway?? We need more civics in elementary school.

Hunger for nacho plate world record satisfied
A dubious honor. The stadium abounded with uneaten heaping plates loaded with something that looked like congealed vomit (was pink slime involved?) People couldn't give it away. When they showed the prep workers preparing the stuff on the big screen the reaction from the crowd was "Eewwwwwww". TONS of food was wasted. When will people understand that pig out junk food competitions are a dumb idea? The cupcake eating contest downtown comes to mind. What kind of message is this supposed to send to people? Elite athletes eat tons of goopy crap? Have you folks at K.U. concessions not noticed that there is a junk food problem in this country?
