When you get to Lawrence, you might want to see how things have changed

I don't quite share the enthusisiam some film buffs have for Carnival,
but I can see how it influenced the work of George Romero and David
Lynch.


Many years ago listening to Bo Gritiz on the shortwaves I recall him
saying Lawrence (home of the Univ. of Kansas) has one of the largest
gay populations in the nation.

The "Kansas Comet" AKA Gale Sayers ran 99 yds. for a touchdown against
the Univ. of Nebraska Cornhuskers in Lincoln.

I know it's so because my parents were in the stands watching and told me
all about when they got home.

Gale Sayers has been diagnosed with dementia. Very sad.

That is too bad.

He went to my high school (before my time). Kinda nice for them to be able to
lay claim to having the all time leading NFL rookie running back.

And they stole him from Omaha North, probably on the basis of having
a great coach and a superior football program
