I’m at the Kansas State Fair
This weekend I’m helping out at the Kansas Taxpayer Network booth at the Kansas State Fair. The booth is in the Meadowlark building, north aisle. I’ll be there from 4:00 to 10:00 today, 9:00 to 4:00 tomorrow (Saturday), and 3:00 to 9:00 Sunday. Stop by and say hello.

Kansas Header Images Now Available
I created a Flickr photo set that holds all the header images that I use on the Voice For Liberty in Wichita. To see the images in full size, click on any image, then along its top, click on “All sizes.” To view a slide show of these images, click here. I took all these…

Kansas Blog Roundup for September 5, 2008
In Kansas this week, blog coverage of local issues is a little light, partly due to the holiday, but also the Republican convention.

Web Map of Wichita
An interesting site someone just showed to me is Web Map of Wichita, a useful collection of Wichita-oriented web sites presented in an unusual way.

Kansas Blog Roundup for August 29, 2008
Kansas bloggers were hard at work again this week, covering a wide variety of topics. A Wichita blog that’s been around for a while but has recently undergone a change in direction is Wichita Art Directory. This blog contains wonderful images of the works of many Wichita artists. Also useful is an extensive list of…

Kansas Blog Roundup for August 22, 2008
In Kansas this week, some blogs are quiet, but others pick up the slack with some worthwhile posts. The Kansas Progress questions the actions of the Kansas Traditional Republican Majority in Actions by liberal group denounced by state GOP. The Kansas Republican Assembly blog has a two-part series of posts covering how Kansas has become…

Kansas Blog Roundup for August 15, 2008
No overarching theme emerged this week in Kansas blogs. Follow-up from the August 5 Kansas primary and Wichita school board action proved popular with readers. A new (to me, anyway) and interesting Kansas blog is Jewish Simplicity, which blogs about “… simplicity, frugality and sustainability from a Jewish perspective …” Douglas and Main is a…

Follow Me on Twitter. I’ll follow you.
Some people have asked if I’m on Twitter, and the answer is yes. Here’s a link to my Twitter profile, from where you can choose to follow me. I don’t use Twitter as much as a lot of people do. I don’t have a mobile device like a Blackberry. I have a regular old-fashioned cell…

My Apoligies For Comment Loss
Yesterday afternoon I was performing some maintenance on my server. I deleted a test installation of a WordPress blog that I used for, naturally, testing. I thought I deleted the testing database that belong to the testing WordPress installation, but I actually deleted the production database that runs the Voice For Liberty in Wichita. Oops.…

Kansas Blog Roundup for August 8, 2008
The August primary exposed some ugly behavior in the Kansas Republican party. And from its senate leadership, no less. While not, strictly speaking, a blog, Kansas Liberty is a great place to read about Kansas politics. The article Senate Leadership PAC supporting Republican liberals over conservatives in primaries: Conservatives protest GOP contributions to liberal Republican…

Kansas Blog Roundup for August 1, 2008
I’ve noticed two new Kansas blogs this week. One, Blog For Kansas, displays the disclaimer “Paid for by Jim Slattery for Senate,” so this appears to be, and not only for that reason, an official campaign blog. Keep that in mind while reading. The second is Douglas and Main, obviously located in Wichita, maybe right…

Kansas Blog Roundup for July 25, 2008
It must be the heat, or maybe our upcoming primary elections, or something, but it’s been a fairly quiet past two weeks in the Kansas blogosphere. Some new blogs, however, make their appearance. There is a new political blog in our state — sort of: Kansas Watch by Todd D. Epp, who appears to be…
