KANSAS CITY LOVES COKE AND THE PLAZA

THIS ISN'T KATHY'S CLOWN, BUT HE'S IN TOWN. A POPULAR SPOT THAT MARKS A BUSY INTERSECTION IN THE PLAZA AREA. Look for this mythical figure just west of the J.C.Nichols Statue in Kansas City's Country Club Plaza Area.....

THE UPTOWN THEATER IS REALLY IN MIDTOWN, By R.L.Huffstutter

When one is uptown in Kansas City, Missouri, they are really in midtown, not downtown or not uptown, but imagine how this theater looked in the 1950s.

I can only imagine that there must have been lines of teenage girls wearing felt skirts with cutout poodles and cocktail glasses while their boyfriends wore white sport coats with pink carnations.

The shoes of both the boys and their girl friends? Black and white saddle oxfords. You can only imagine the hairstyles. Those were you future grandparents and/or parents out on a date at a classy picture show...Uptown in midtown Kansas City, Missouri. It is still a popular and active establishment today for concerts.

It was cool then. And it is cool now. In the summers, it is "air-cooled."

It's a long story, really. But without going into a lot of long and drawn out details, let me say that I found a new site where there are thousand of fantastic photos and works of art. Here is the site's name and website address:http://www.flickr.com/I needed a new location to post my work. I had heard abut the above site from some of my friends. They encouraged me to pack up my portfolios and head on over. "It's one fantastic gallery, a great site for exposure," stated Dave, a long-time friend whom I met on another gallery site. "You won't be sorry," he told me."You will meet some great people, photographers, artists, people who are really into the arts, people who are into autos, people with interests in all aspects of life." So, it was due to Dave's advice and others that I joined with the group.
