Summer of 97 this dude named "Chicago" basically lived at my house in Dodge. He was pretty cool and we would shoot hoops every day when he wasn't banging my sister.
That fall he went to Kansas State University and became Darnell McDonald.

Grovers is definitely a different style of BBQ than you will find most places in the midwest. It is a lot more of a vinegar than a sweet BBQ. Most people really like it or really dislike it. Take your pick. They have been in business for decades and stay busy. I don't think that is a sign of bad food...though it is Topeka and I don't have a lot of faith in this communityTopekan checking in here...
Topeka is a Wal-mart community happy with chains and it pisses me off. I would move, but my wife and I (both undergrads from KSTATE) both have good jobs here. Anything good coming to the area, originates in KC, Manhattan, or Lawrence, and then branches to Topeka. If you are in the area, I recommend the following.
The burger stand here is very good. I will say that the one in Lawrence is a bit better (they seem to cook their burgers better and they have more sauces for their fries). They have a good selection of beer. I would recommend the Kobe burger (comes with truffle butter) and the truffle fries.
The Blind Tiger makes some of the best beer I have had, bar none. If you are in the area, give it a try. It is right off of 37th and Kansas ave. They make some great burnt ends too. IMO, Boss Hawgs is complete garbage in comparison to Blind Tiger and Grovers. Grovers is a less sweet BBQ.
As far as other places, Paisanos for Italian is good. El Mezcal is probably on the better end for Mexican. Tuesday/Thurs/Saturday, they have 0.99 margaritas. Their white cheese dip is pretty dang good.
There are some other decent places, but these are where we like to eat when we go out. It took all of a few months to get tired of chains.
sorry, but anyone who think's Grovers is good has lost their mind. The burnt ends at Blind Tiger can be great, but just as often as not they are tough and fatty. El Mezcal also sucks (go to Los Charros instead).
I will try Los Charros, but I will not say EM sucks. EM is far better than any chains, and most other mexican joints I have tried around town.
I think Rod needs to take it to the hole more frequently this year.. Thoughts?
I've just recently become aware of this freak show. A group of people at my office are always talking (between boughts of crying) about this thing they bought at their friends party. apparently their friends have these partys and somehow trick everyone there into purchasing low quality jewelry, clothes, kitchen stuff, candles, etc. At first I just assumed all of their friends were into one of the pyramid scheme cults but I think this is a different thing. maybe the pyramid scheme cults just branched out into new markets. Not 100% sure.
The really funny ones are the "passion parties" that involve female canadian friends crashing a bachelorette party with sex toys for sale.
No less than three chicks I went to high school with are into selling the passion parties. ALL of them did loads more stuff than the other chicks back in high school.
paying a cover charge to get into bars in mhk for any reason ever is unacceptable.
really good band maybe
When has there ever been a really good band in aggieville?
We are going to miss the crap out of Jamar. Don't want to think about it.
who is Xavier Gates and what is his story?http://lmgtfy.com/?q=%22xavier+gates%22
the sweater on #1 is how things are done. v good work to her.
Seriously? Fans of a program coached by Frank Martin are going to criticize a coach for getting in a player's face? I have officially seen it all.
wonder how you say "the white flash" in Lithuanian?
Maybe it would help if you realized the phrase is Italian, not Spanish.
white = bianco, not blanco
I have a good feeling about being able to post this a lot this season:why are the lowercase I and lowercase L the same letter? May want to try a new font.
Uh, there is no lowercase "L" in the phrase "assassino bianco."
