I'd like DOGE to do a quick scan of the books. I bet there was a lot of money wasted on make believe positions and contracts for work done give to cronies and friends.
Then we can watch the real theater of

I'm not trying to insult you or Kansas, I actually find it kind of charming to drive through in the summer. Part of the bread basket of America! I just don't think of it as a fun to drive in state. I feel the same way about Minnesota and Wisconsin, where I am from. Nice place but really nowhere to drive a sports car fast on curvy roads.

Thank you Fred .... your clips led me down the "bunny hole"....

Ben composing a song, improv, in ten minutes, live on stage .... for the National Symphony.... I can't "do that" .

The stage I saw him play on would barely contain his baby grand ... way back when...

Just a "regular" musician ... nothing really political .... and yet, due to your "religion" .... he sucks ?

Rock on...

Why do you suppose that is?
No one is scared of PARF ...

No, they are not. Western Kansas is worse then western Oklahoma or western Texas.

In fact, it's all crap from the middle of those state all the way to the west coast. Those pioneers that ventured further west than the extent of the forest had rocks in their heads. Should have turned around after a day or two in the great dusty, windy nothingness that they encountered.

Just for the record, Toby Keith died last year and Kid Rock has already played the Kennedy Center.

For Barack Obama's inauguration.

KS roads are boring as hell, set your cruise and take a nap. If you head east into the Ozarks of MO, AR, and eastern OK, there are some incredible and beautiful driving roads.

Cool with me, might put a damper on the effing construction everywhere. I’ll do my part to cut federal spending, only 49 states left to go.

The only time I've been on KS roads was on 70 driving back from CO with an 81 Scirocco in tow behind my Cayenne GTS. I appreciated the good quality but boring road driving 100+ for 2 hours to get to Arthur Bryant's BBQ before they closed.

Arthur Bryants sucked for BBQ but at least it was easy to get there.

Yeah KC has way better bbq to offer than Arthur Bryant’s. I’m a big fan of Q39, the original Joe’s BBQ in the gas station, Char Bar, and Gates. I’m sure my BIL could offer more, he lives there and loves the bbq.

If he's bored one day, I'd be happy to send him $100 to get a few things and overnight them.

He has two young kids and a full time job, I don’t think he’s bored much. Besides, it’s not an authentic bbq experience unless you walk out of the restaurant reeking of smoke and meat.
