Looks like water slides across the state of Kansas are being outlawed because the son was a son of a Kansas lawmaker.
This sucks if you like water slides. I hate that this happened to a boy and his family but they should outlaw worlds tallest unsafe water slides and not go over bored with this. [Reply]

While I'm not going to lose my head over this I'm also not going to let this just let it slide by either.What happened to this place? Where's the morbid puns? What happened to the Delta Chi I used to know? [Reply]

If I ask something ominous, but leave it as an open question, can I garner the support of those who simply assume the question to be a statement of fact while remaining inoculated from the burden of actually establishing said fact?
