SkinnyBenny's Band of Merry Misfits: Townie Master Thread
« on: August 22, 2011, 09:08:49 PM »
Let me start this off with some very very bad news rumblings/grumblings for townies.  My sources on the inside are telling me that, very shortly, the people doing the renovations at MHS will be taking some very boring white paint and painting over the walls of C-Hall.  The psychedelic odyssey's days are numbered.


 :shakesfist: and  :cry:.

Also as a disclaimer let me say that 'clams and steve dave and all other haters can just go suck an egg with their "I'm too good for townie posts" posts, because this thread is probably gonna be like 5000 pages long and will probably always be at the top.  So eat that.  It will be full of things like good MHK memories, MHK did-you-knows, grumblings about MHK-related things (that aren't related to the airport because that has its own thread), working at Alorica for four weeks and quitting before you have to go out on the floor, etc. 

Sorry we have sweet things to talk about and aren't all from crappy places like Sabetha or Medicine Lodge or whatever.   :dubious:

I still remember growing up with my dad as the music professor at K-State and playing center for the Indians before going to wrestle in the hillbilly mountains and finally moving back to KC to teach kindergarten close enough to tailgate at home games.

God, what a life you must have.

Okay, now some pictures.  Guys what I'm hearing is that construction is going well.  Personally I hate it because I fear change.  My source sent me a bunch of photos that he/she took on his/her cell phone.  




^The new entrance to MHS.  This is a balcony that overlooks where you used to walk in the front and walk up the stairs toward the office.  Also, the designers are clearly saying eff those guys who want us to change the mascot.  (We can debate this vehemently somewhere around page 18.)



^The view from above the re-worked front drive. "From the ledge, you can see KS hill!" says my source.    :eek:



^Inside the new band room.  That's gonna provide the Big Blue with some good acoustics!



^The view from the middle level walkway between the two new additions.



^E-hall, which now might as well be called the ETERNAL HALL, according to my source.  They're going to connect the old hall and extend it north all the way to where F-Hall used to be.  When both spaces are combined it will be 660 feet long.



^Taken from under the ENORMOUS Indian head in the first photo looking back toward the east.  The first pic was taken from that upper walk way.



^The new anatomy lab...cemetery out the window to the north.



Not gonna lie, feels good to have this MHS construction exclusive right here on goEMAW.  Scooping GPC (and of course ksf, lol) again.  Feels good.  Drink it in gang.  Because we got a keg and we're going out to The Rocks.  :cheers:

Later, I went on a walkabout during the end of the bush years and kept a journal and wound up in Seattle where everything just kind of crystallized for me.

Nice pics, was going to try to sneak in during Labor Day weekend and check it out but I guess I'm good now.  Tell your source to go take pics of Lee School too.
