"Many businesses in Salina will not take a check. That leads me to believe they should be audited by the IRS for skimming cash."
Maybe it means you look suspicious.
"With all the talk about The Hill, people should know The Hill is really the area with the brick streets. The rest is just the east side of Salina."
Are those folks too cheap to pave over them?
"The guy on the red Harley is really my sister."
So that's really not a clip-on ponytail like the other Harley riders wear?
"If we are the only intelligent life anywhere in the universe, then God must have given up."
No, he didn't give up. He just stopped at the county line.
"I thought 333 was an opinion poll for anybody, but it seems if you don't agree with what Tom Bell thinks, boy, it doesn't get published. I wonder why?"

"Skin cancer, lack of fitness, obesity. Why spend $12 million on a leisure facility that Kansans can only utilize three months a year? Let's build an indoor pool complex encouraging sports, health and fun."

"Sen. Brungardt calls conservative Republicans wing nuts. Well, wing nuts, it's time to come together and clamp down on the loose screws running Kansas, including those in our own party."
The Kansas House of Representatives is run by right-wing conservative Melvin Neufeld. The Kansas Republican Party is headed by right-wing conservative Kris Kobach. Conservative Tom Arpke is the top dog in the Saline County Republican Committee. Sounds like you're saying those wing nuts are loose screws.
"Speaking of car chases, how many lives were put in danger over a short stack of pancakes?"
The chase was bad. It was made worse when the perpetrator got away. (At least the PD picked up a suspect the next day.)
"It's a sad day when they tear down the pedestrian bridge over Broadway. It's like a Salina landmark. City, what a shame."
A landmark? Are you kidding? That's like calling the North Ohio Street sand pit a Kodak Photo Spot."
