MMeM, Vol. 9 Issue 16 – Wouldn’t work either

…going to take a hell of a lot more than natural gas explosions.

There is nothing funny about this post, nothing to laugh at here. I’m sure everyone has heard about the building-leveling, city-rumbling, restaurant/shopping center natural gas line explosion in Kansas City Tuesday night. Easterners, you’re excused if you haven’t heard, it happened behind you.

Of course, I do have some friends in KC, MO and KC, KS. Yeah it’s like that. Talk about an identity crisis. There is a distinction and yes they do it only for the use of more letters. One set of very dear friends is not too far from said explosion and I certainly wish them well. The other friend(s) constitute my daughter’s mother, i.e. my ex-wife. No, no, no queueing the band or releasing of a dove for every year we were married. It’s not like that, it’s all good. Would it make for a better post? Most definitely. I digress.

Upon first hearing of this tremendous explosion it had been reported that it had happened in an upscale shopping center and left out the part about it being centered at JJ’s restaurant there. The first thought that popped into my head was, “…and some poor simpletons will think that could actually keep shopping and spending women out of an upscale mall…yeah right!”

Again, I sincerely hope everyone survived and that none of my friends, ex-wife included, were present. But to stop or alter some women’s spending and shopping at malls is going to take a hell of a lot more than natural gas explosions.
