Hey @Mocat, ms. Wacky and I went to happy hour at Blue Line tonight. Guess what? I had 4 wells and Ms. Wacky had 3 wines and our tab was only $20. :love:

I'm hoping the streetcar works on its own, but it's more of a downtown circulator.  will be more practical once light rail begins running to the suburbs.  once this occurs, downtown workers can legitimately commute to work without a vehicle.   



I have to say I am completely caught off guard by the idea of light rail to the suburbs.

It's more dense out there ww

light rail is code word for a widened car pool lane right?

Double shift was packed on Friday, my friends that had never been there liked it. 'grats KCFD

The Ruins is really fun. Good music, and the serve yourself taps worked well. Ended up being pretty cheap because I just filled my cup 2/3rds of the way each time.

the Denver transit system works really well.  LR line connects Littleton suburbs to downtown union station.  16th street line circulates people from union station through the heart of downtown.  of course, the chances of this running into JoCo are slim to none b/c bi-state.  but, a line into Lee's Summit along existing rail corridor would make sense.

Less than dummies who will go towed for not knowing how to parallel park.

I fixed your post. 

Sidenote- as a small business owner who themselves was put in check by the city, I'm surprised at your position here.
