It's cold in Kansas City

We are in KC for a conference. This will probably be the last time in a long while that we get to go somewhere for work, seeing as how nobody will even be able to figure out how to transact currency in this country -- for things like hotels and food -- in another two weeks. We predict a big comeback by the barter system. Anyway, we are going to sneak away at noon and go to Gates for lunch (on our own dime), assuming we can find our car. (When we last saw the car, it was parked somewhere in the bowels of the Crown Center complex.)

We hate doing trendy touristy things, but we are probably going to check out the Power and Light District tonight. We haven't been down there yet.

We are worried about the weather, especially south and east of here. How's it looking where you're at?

P.S. Trust us: Mark Teahen is NOT a second baseman.

P.P.S. Places like Crown Center and the Hyatt Regency will probably go out of business by spring. People are going to be killing each other in the streets for food soon. We wish we were kidding.

I haven't been to the P&L yet, let me know what you think.

I'm envious of your lunch. I'd kill for some Gates ribs right now.

Also, the Royals just signed Greinke to 4-year deal. WHOO-HOO!!!

Thanks for the Greinke news. I read it here first. This is GREAT news.

Gates was fantastic.
