  1. Is the toy train to blame for Kelso closing too?

  2. If KCMO starts using a high-tech asphalt truck to burn up potholes it will definitely put the pothole pansy program out of commission.

  4. @11:04 nailed it, with all the growth in new bars, restaurants, and other entertainment venues in Northtown, both Kelso's and Chappells were doomed.

    Too old and stogy for the new evening crowds, and either unwilling or unable to change with the times.

    The "New Chappells" (aka Old Chappells version 2) should be closing by summer, same lousy food and service with the carpet cleaned.

    By the way P&L District, Westport and Plaza regulars, it's terrible North of The River, you wouldn't want to go there, stay with your comfort zones.
