Love it or leave it alone, dork. How do you have the time to write such an unnecessary piece… on a subject you apparently loathe?

Re: “Google Fiber bails out North Kansas City's fiber-optic misfire

LinkCity never made a profit, because they have a network guy who knows next to nothing, a salesperson who knows even less, and a figurehead director who doesn't play an active role in building the business. It's stereotypical city government style waste, with overpaid employees who are underqualified for their role. Never in my life have I dealt with a group of people who were more apathetic toward profitability.

Had lunch there today, amazing smoked ribs. Hours later, I'm still full, but still want more.

Re: “Hot Club of Cowtown singer and violinist — and KC native — Elana James on her band's latest, Rendezvous in Rhythm

What makes me cringe is this quote. "I think this creepy obsession with new, new, new, personal 'I wrote it' stuff is a kind of plague on American traditional music". Huh? This is disrespectful to those who write original roots music. There's nothing wrong with doing standards but does she have to insult those who are forging their own path and choosing to write their own music?

Re: “With Google putting Fiber in Austin, Kansas City Startup Village confronts an uncertain future

Well there is one legit entrepreneur.. a lone wolf amidst a pack of sheep who has in fact built and sold a company..

As for the rest of the KCSV?

Ehh, revenge of the nerds.. Bunch of the unpopular kids getting together to bask in their apparent mediocrity. Not quite a stage four support group but nowhere near a Silicon Valley genesis..

Are they sheep trying their hardest not to appear desperate as they clamor to an imprimatur that's run it's course?

Where to start..

The dad, a CFO at a big KC law firm, pays for the sons play time in one of the above mentioned startups.

Another dad, who inherited oil money, pays for another 40 something yo sons play time in another startup which attracted investment from a KC 'venture capital' firm probably because the dad is a limited partner in the fund.

[Ssshhh.. No one say anything about the sons previous endeavor, the startup that dare not speak its name (reference another Pitch article: a million little pixels).] Kinda like the dad who agrees to buy the little-league team jerseys if they put the son in center field.

Incidentally, this same fund supposedly 'sold' a company to a well known search engine, for how much? (Crickets chirping). So what, it was a mercy killing - way to save the day Mr. Silicon Valley search engine.

Yes, it was a mercey killing. Doesn't stop the former CEO of this company (former carpet salesman now an 'entrepreneur in residence') from running around the circuit playing Yoda - giving advice to would be founders. Founders who would do well to ask Yoda "how many companies have you personally started?" And "how many companies have you personally raised money for?" [and no, running to the ex-telecom execs (who hired you) for more tokens after getting rejected by a couple hundred venture capitalists doesn't count as a cap raise]

Btw, who's the cute one - the sausage king of the nerds? The dashing young prince from back east - the one who sent an email to "the village" along with a threat to pack up and leave unless several thousand dollars were deposited into his exchequer.

All the makings of a farce.. Three amigos comes to mind. Actors pretending to be real cowboys? Guess we'll see.

Re: “Carb stomping through a month of KC's tastiest two-handers

There is a reason the Z-Man is at the top of the article. Not saying these other sandhiches aren't good, but when you have had a Z-Man, you know that it stands above the rest. The perfectly smoked brisket, the smoked provolone cheese, the tangy sweet and spicy sauce, the warm bun, the cruchiness from the onion ring, and the bright acidity from the pickle. It is like bitting into happiness. :-)

Re: “Hot Club of Cowtown singer and violinist — and KC native — Elana James on her band's latest, Rendezvous in Rhythm

@William

Delta blues? ...no. Pokey Lafarge mostly plays western swing, with elements of hot jazz and blues, and is infatuated with Steinbeck. I thought it was analagous to this interview because Elana said that "Our music basically sounds like if you were out driving in Texas during the late 1930s" which would be right in LaFarge's wheelhouse. His band also dresses up in the style of that time period
