Cheap airfare to AG

I saw an ad in the K.C. Star Monday that Midwest Airlines is having a fare sale which includes round trip to New Orleans from Kansas City for $79 each way. It’s a 900+ mile trip by car, and I would think the gas alone would cost right at that, not to mention the wear and tear on one’s car (and body).

Thought I would pass it along, in case someone might be interested.

Rockin� and a Rollin�

Ok, here�s the deal. I am a part-time Mobile Disc Jockey. I generally do school dances, corporate functions and weddings. These are fairly straight forward events where the music that I can play is restricted to the occasion at hand.

Reality series seeking extremely intelligent men

A reality series for the WB is looking for extremely intelligent men, 21-35, who are single and haven’t had the best luck meeting the right girl. "We think the smart guys deserve all the attention and we want to prove it to the world." It would require about two weeks in January 2005; there will be a per dieum; and, prizes will be worth at least several hundred thousand dollars. Mensa gets a credit at the end of the show if we help them find contestants.

To be considered, the producers require single males to e-mail them at [email protected] with a brief description your credentials. They will be holding interviews at 122 west 26th street on the 6th floor, Monday the 25th of October for 11 to 6.

M-Prisoned

I have recently been corresponding with a Mensan residing in a Texas prison. I am helping him publish a newsletter which I will eventually post on my website. The next issue concerns treatment of inmates. I invite anyone interested in learning about the �Prison Industrial Complex� to simply do a Google-search on those key words, you will be amazed.

The following is a satirical piece that will appear in M-Prisoned.

K.U. Basketball

Some of the coverage about K.U. Basketball Coach Roy Williams this past week stated that his salary and benefits package was worth about $458,000 per year.

I wonder if any of the faculty at K.U. comes close to that figure — If not, isn’t that pretty convincing evidence that somewhere along the line the universities have lost sight of the fact that their purpose is education, rather than athletics?

Then again, I doubt that it would be front-page news for a week if a physics or math professor went to another institution.
