Mike Lewis, I have a suggestion for a story: The many bad things people do behind the wheel and what can be done to stop it. I have seen many grown men reading the newspaper and drinking hot coffee while driving, and I have seen grown women putting on makeup or bra while driving. Teenagers are just as bad, because many of them can never stop talking on the phone long enough to drive, and they also text message friends while driving. I want to see a story on this and what is being done to crack down on these.

Not sure if you have all the stories you need for the hidden treasures, but my mom has a giant pole barn over full of everything! You name it, she's probably got it. Right now, I do have to admit I am utilizing some of the space, as we moved away 3 years ago with the military, and needed to store some of our treasures. She has longed to share her treasures in her barn. I think many would find her barn interesting. Some of these boxes are filled with family memories, some are items her and dad have collected, and some of the items are just "stuff" I know she'd be very excited to share her story. And I would be ever so grateful if somone would take an interest in helping us (my sister and I) figure out a way to weed through this "stuff" along with mom and dad. I know our family has things in there we want to keep, however, this pole barn was built for many other uses. It's amazing how fast a building can accumulate and fill up!

There's an interesting gathering the Record Bar this Friday. Some local (mostly) female musicians are putting together a regional review of talent and innovation, but I don't think it's a cheesy contest... it's where I'm headed after the KC Magic benefit.
