Does anyone have any suggestions on affordable dentists ANYWHERE in Kansas? When I lived in Denver and KC, I used to use Comfort dental and I am about ready to start making the three hour treck from central Kansas to KC to go back to them. I have been one dental office and got freaked out about their estimate....then I got excited about WSU Hygiene school and the dentist school....the hygiene program at WSU was AMAZING....then went to the dentist school after waiting 3 months to get a appointment, to get a even higher estimate than at the other place, when it was supposed to he a 1/3rd of a regular dentist. I am not sure if Wichita and central Kansas is a monopoly, but I would rather save myself thousands of dollars with going back to comfort dental and the traveling...unless there is dentists around central ks that will just fix what is needed at the moment without all the outrageous costs. Any advice is helpful...Will have delta dental through my job in two months...
So I filed for unemployment on the 12th of this week after my current employer dropped my hours to 0 I called in a few times to verify my ID and to check the status one of the people said i'd been approved due to lack of work hours but I'm not sure how the whole process works. I did my weekly certification. Do I have to wait until Monday to see if I'm getting anything this week? I don't see any documents saying i've been approved or not.
Interesting when polled as Democrats both Hamilton and Taylor lose to Marshall.
He is has the name recognition and money. He would be worse than Brownback. He promotes Charles Koch's libertarian agenda and gets a $180,000/year salary from KOch Industries via Wichita State Uni.
about Lisa Teachman:
- she is Emmy Award-winning
- her wardrobe is magnificent
- her hair and makeup is always perfect
- her voice and cadence are wonderful
- she knows what the fuck she is doing and talking about
- she is CHIEF METEOROLOGIST, and you know she EARNED that shit
- she is a state treasure
about me:
- i am not sexually attracted to women
- i like to watch the weather
- i only get stations based in Wichita
now, go ahead and say "can we not" and "please don't", but you know i am right: she is a state treasure.
Roger Marshall, once again abdicating his duties, and proving he is just a MAGA water boy. Can we please get this do nothing feckless carpet bagger out of office?
This is longshot, but if any animal lovers around Ellsworth are out here there's a rough looking orange cat hanging around the Conoco off of I70 at 267 KS-14, Ellsworth.
Some friends and I were just passing through, and if one of them wasn't incredibly allergic I would have picked her up and brought her to a shelter somewhere.
She's missing part of her jaw, and has several scrapes around her face, and a large tick on her back that I didn't have means to remove.
She needs help. Please.
I just moved to Kansas less than a year ago. My car is registered here but my license is still out of state. I got a ticket for no insurance, I didn’t realize it had lapsed, and didn’t show up for court, I thought just getting insurance was enough. I was told today that my license plate was suspended so when I called to get it reinstated they told me they issued me a Kansas license and suspended it and I need an sr22 to reinstate it. They won’t give me the number for that license over the phone. I haven’t received anything in the mail about it either. If it’s suspended can I go to the dmv and get it or how am I supposed to get this number so I can get an SR22 and get it reinstated?
You should find some way to accurately tally up just how much time he spends in Florida vs his residence in Kansas and Washington.
For some reason he is still popular with a large percentage of Kansas voters. But I think that Kansans would rebel if he was exposed as a carpetbagger who doesn’t worry about shoveling snow while spending his time in a beachside mansion while the people that control the vote endure what living in Kansas is really all about.
We need all the help we can get.
Roger Marshall is about to vote to let the US Gov spy on us without a warrant. (FISA) And we see how that’s working for immigrants.
And of course our media is silent.
I'll be driving out to look at a used vehicle in Rossville. Seller agreed to a pre-purchase inspection.
Of course facebook marketplace said the car was in my city, an hour away, so I thought I could take it to my mechanic until he sent the address.
Google is showing a couple auto shops in the area but not a lot of reviews. Any recommendations welcome, also any places to avoid.
Thanks y'all!
I was looking into the candidates running against Marshall and one stuck out to me. Most of the candidates seems to be very vague with their ideals and policy agendas, but Anne Parelkar seems to have her thoughts clearly outlined rather than vague “I’m from Kansas rah rah” pandering. I love her policies and I intend to vote for her in the primary. I thought it would be good to share if others are undecided or unaware.
Hey all — I’m trying to get from Wichita to Kansas City this Friday (April 17) to start the Katy Trail.
I’m traveling solo with a bike + some gear (can remove wheels and pack it down to fit in most cars). I’m flexible on timing and pickup location.
Happy to chip in for gas + your time — I’d actually appreciate if you could suggest what feels fair $$-wise.
About me: mid-40s, easygoing, longtime USPS letter carrier from Seattle out on a cross-country bike trip. Just looking for a straightforward ride east.
If you’re already heading that way or know someone who is, feel free to DM me. Thanks!
Hey! I am not from Kansas and do not live there but I have a friend looking for affordable housing. She’s stumbled on some information about Burlington Place Apartments in Burlington, and I was just hopping on to see if anyone had any information about the complex and location.
