Pink stains from Olathe Water

I know that the stains are from the sodium permanganate that Olathe Water is putting in the water, but I'm wondering about the quantity they are using because get a pink build up on surfaces from it.

  • Anyone else have this issue?
  • Does all of Olathe's tap water come from the same treatment plant?

Trouble receiving mail in Olathe?

Has anyone else had trouble receiving mail that they were expecting? Does anyone know why or what’s going on? Did you end up receiving the mail much later? We have multiple letters we expected that haven’t come

Looking For A Bakery

I’m looking for a bakery in the area that can make a cake for my son’s birthday. I don’t need anything fancy but I would like the face of his favorite paw patrol character (Rubble) on it. Just need like an 8 or 9 inch round cake. I will need it by the 22nd. Obviously reasonable pricing is good too. If they can deliver it too that would be great.

A judge at the municipal court has a problem with power trips

I will preface this that I’m a woman married to another woman.

So yesterday, I went with my wife because she got tangled up in kangaroo traffic court.

We sat there patiently for 2 hours for her turn. Saw plenty of people leaving out the back exit with their family, spouses, friends, etc. Accompanying them to go see the clerk. As soon as my wife explains her side of things, the judge tells her “So what we’re actually doing here is you’re owning up to your mistake we need to do that, okay?” When in this instance even asked from several people with no real bias, the court was at fault for losing her case information for months, she called and called, but was blamed for it. Whatever. Even if that was it, it is what it is.

We watched the judge be kind to every single person prior to her btw. Which was strange considering her demeanor changed when my wife was up there. My wife signals me to get up to exit with her through the back when she was done (which we’ve done before several times and she asked the prosecutor the time before we’d been there if that was okay. They said it was.)

Judge Kenney proceeds to yell as soon as we’re nearly to the exit “You person you wait in the hall outside the courtroom wait outside the courtroom go into the hall.” I was so confused and I could only get out “But I’m—“ Then she cut me off and goes “Doesn’t matter. Doesn’t matter. You go outside. I don’t want to hear it.” Yet, I’d witnessed several other people accompany their partners to leave before I attempted to.

Then as I finally said “Oh. Okay then.” My wife looks mortified, I feel humiliated as I have to walk back toward the entrance nearly all the way across the courtroom and the judge goes “It’s nothing personal it’s just a liability issue I don’t know you or trust you. You could do something and that would be bad.” I’m not a criminal, I’ve never had a ticket of any kind, it was crazy being singled out at in front of a room full of people with that insinuation.

I forgot to add I’m in an arm sling after having hand surgery a few days ago so I don’t really know what trouble I could’ve gotten up to.

OBGYN recommendations

Does anyone have experience with Dr. Ellen Hernly? I can’t seem to find any reviews of her online and just wondered if people had thoughts. Otherwise, I’d love to hear your OBGYN recommendations. Preferably OBGYN’s that deliver at Olathe, but others are welcome as well!

Mur-Len Produce stand search

Does anyone know where the big fresh produce tent at the northeast corner of Sante Fe and Mur-len will be this year? Drove by last night and the parking entire area is now soil. Will the family set up somewhere else? I love being able to buy fresh tomatoes (plus other items) from them any day of the week.

Looking for a salon that specializes in perms.

I know perms aren't really a thing anymore but I have "Irish Curls". I just want to find somewhere to get my straight top layer to match my under layer that has tight curls. If I was just getting all of it permed I would go to any salon but I feel like what I need done needs someone who specializes in it.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

Why are there so many first responders parked along the side of 143rd street? They're all standing outside their vehicles facing the road so I assume a funeral procession?
