Would You Rather Wednesday: Mean Streets or Haunted House?

Kaleb — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 13:21:14 +0000

Welcome back to another installment of “Would You Rather Wednesday.” Last week we gave you the choice of living in deep space without an astronaut suit or living in the deep sea with no scuba gear. Living in the deep sea was the majority vote with 70%. Today, you don’t have to permanently live somewhere, [...]

Which Local Public Pool Do You Prefer? [POLL]

Kaleb — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 17:37:22 +0000

The summer heat is among us, so it’s time to break out the swimsuit and enjoy the refreshing cool water at your local pool. Sedalia is fortunate to have two public pools, but which one do you prefer? Both Centennial pool and the Liberty pool are both set up relatively similar. Warrensburg has upgraded their [...]

What Unique Foods Would You Like to See in Sedalia Restaurants? [SURVEY]

Doug — Fri, 14 Jun 2013 13:46:07 +0000

This week Dale Malone from Dukes & Boots posed a question on Facebook about what new foods you'd like to see on the menu. This last Wednesday at lunch, a bunch of our staff got together for the KIX 105 Wednesday lunch and discussed some of the great things that could be brought to the table. Our Events Coordinator Leslee is currently going through the Healthy U Program and we started talking about how it would be interesting if a bar and grill took a healthy way of thinking, one that would surprise people that it was on the menu and would still be unique to Sedalia.

Have You Gotten Sunburned Yet? [POLL]

Behka — Thu, 13 Jun 2013 21:04:50 +0000

So this week on “Outdoors Now,” our friend Harry has been giving us tips to prevent and treat sunburn. I’ve been particularly interested in this topic, as it’s something that I think we all deal with when it gets warm. Now, for me, I burn like nobody’s business. I look out a sunny window, I’ve [...]

Jack Miller: Why I Support Sedalia's Proposed Smoking Ban [OPINION]

Jack Miller — Wed, 12 Jun 2013 19:07:14 +0000

While I attempt to stay as neutral as possible on issues I cover for the news, sometimes comments on an issue beg to be addressed. One of those issues is the smoking ban, that has been cussed and discussed to death both in the city council meetings and in the media, including in my news reports.

What's the Best Gift to Get Dad On Father's Day? [SURVEY]

Kaleb — Wed, 12 Jun 2013 15:00:37 +0000

Father's Day is right around the corner, and being the procrastinator that I am, I have yet to buy a gift for ol' Pops. Not like it matters, I feel like buying your Father a gift is one of the toughest things to do. I know I'm safe with a gift card to a restaurant, but what if you really want to wow him?

Would You Rather Wednesday: Deep Space or the Deep Blue Sea?

Kaleb — Wed, 12 Jun 2013 14:00:37 +0000

Welcome back to another “Would You Rather Wednesday.” Thanks to everyone who participated in the last poll. It was our highest participated poll and most balanced one we have had to date. Fifty-seven percent of you said that you’d rather constantly have Cheetos cheese-covered fingers than constantly have a runny nose. Lately there has been a [...]

Would You Rather Wednesday: Runny Nose or Cheetos Hands?

Kaleb — Wed, 05 Jun 2013 19:25:16 +0000

Welcome back in to another edition of "Would You Rather Wednesday." After all the rain here in West Central Missouri, everything is so green and in bloom. While it's nice to have the warm weather, it also means many people are constantly fighting off their allergies. Personally my allergies are not too bad, but I still need to keep tissues near by. You hate to be the person with a runny nose because while it annoys you, it also annoys the people around you. People get annoyed by the person who sniffles all day at work. You just want to yell at them to blow their nose!

What's the Best Rock Guitar Solo of All Time? [POLL]

Kaleb — Mon, 03 Jun 2013 21:11:03 +0000

Over the weekend I was able to catch a lot of live music. I made it up to Kansas City to see Eve 6 perform, and we had the Lions Club Blues and BBQ Festival right here in town. I don't think this is any hidden secret, but I think we are all suckers for a great guitar solo.

Would You Rather Wednesday: No Web or No Wheels?

Kaleb — Wed, 29 May 2013 18:55:58 +0000

It's Wednesday, which means it is time for another round of "Would You Rather." At one point in time, not everyone had constant access to the internet. Now almost everyone has the internet in the palm of their hand at lightning fast speeds through their cell phones.

Like the internet, vehicles have also become a necessity in every day life. Families are so busy these days that almost every single family member that is eligible to drive owns a vehicle. Like most of us, living in a rural area, we need a vehicle just to go do certain activities or even shop.
