So when you say "I won't lie, I do work VERY near, you could almost say I work underneath it" are you insinuating that you work at Cosentino's grocery underneath the Jones pool? I wouldn�t expect you to be able to afford the $7 appletinis on your high school dropout pay... In fact, I�m shootin 5 cc�s in my ass cheeks right now in preparation for this shit. Don�t hate the playa, hate the game.

Guidos for life.

I wonder if they will let us bring our gallon milk jugs there? I'm bringing one full of water so I don't get dehydrated and the other one is full of protein so my muscles pop out after I get done from the gym. I love the juice. Maybe I can get my boy Pauly D to come DJ for us up there.

If the price bothers you than obviously this isnt for you. This place is meant to drive KC's nightlife to a new level on-par with other large cities across the country. For those mature, happy and successful guys and girls that like to party to the limit and be surrounded by others that feel the same way this is the place. For all others there's always Dave and Busters or some "dive" bar with flat penny beer on tap and lazy people blamming their lack of success on others. Get a life.

I hope that cost comes with complimentary BJ's, if not it's still not a deal breaker.
I bet we could get jazzy Jeff to dj there.

No thanks. I'll stick with swimming in the river, with the sewage and the snakes and the leeches. Better company.

I thought about it and I'm going, right after I rob my uncle of his dope money, I think he keeps it in a floor at his house where he sips on 500 dollar cognac. (wait that was in training day, never mind)! Then all who commented on this platinum pool of pussy will be invited; remember to wear your bling and silk shirts with your herringbone shining.

Oh and dont forget to stay in our group together because we are too good to mingle with the other Hills cast.

Sweet zombie jesus. Look people, this isn't a pool by the traditional definition. That picture is VERY misleading. I have been up on the roof to look at it. Believe me when I tell you, it's TINY. So, I guess it's strictly a wet night club. One that I cannot go to, because...

A. I'm not pretty enough.

B. I can't afford it.
And..

C. I'm not flexible enough to be stuck up my own ass.

Although, I won't lie, I do work VERY near, you could almost say I work underneath it, and I'm sure I will be eye-humping all the women. Just wish I owned a Ferrari... Not because they would give be a second look. I just want a fucking Ferrari.

Seacrest Out..

Wow, the Blonde-Mosaic crowd with pool! Not having to wait until 11pm to see all these best buds of mine is worth the Platinum price. And with a 15% discount at Mosaic, the membership will easily pay for itself by Labor Day. I'm waxing my chest next week.

I just realized...those prices are for a season starting June 20th. In other words, you're paying that AND missing 4 weeks of the relatively short Kansas City pool season (traditionally Memorial Day-Labor Day).

How much would memberships be if this thing weren't tax-subsidized?

I'm sticking with my Dukes of Hazzard kiddie pool. At least it's free and I can float in my living room.

Is that all, I cant wait to spend my utility money to go not mingle with people too good for me to speak to. As a matter of fact I'm moving out to leawood to be closer to people I cant speak to!

How much does it cost for them to wipe my ass with a gold leafed chamois and sprinkle me liberally with douche powder?

Sounds like loads of fun with just the type of people I like the most!

Are you sure "corporate" is the highest membership level available? My book on how to influence people said I should ask.
