I was just wondering what kind of chain restaurants, coffee shops, book stores or anything of that nature do you have in Kirksville? If you were to receive a gift certificate what would you want? Coffee? Food? Gas? Thanks in advance....!

 

[rddoms]

Ruby Tuesday is like the only sitdown restaurant in town that is all over the US. All others are smaller. BP, Walmart, and fast food restaurants are other Kirksville stores that would be good for gift certs.

My girlfriend at the time got me Pancake City gift certificates for Christmas one year. That's the gift that keeps on givin'! Is that place still open? If so, the health dept. must still be turning a blind eye on that joint!

Yup, its still open. I love their food, but the place is trashy. 👍

Yes!!! Pancake city is the best!!! Open 24 hours a day/7 days a week. Where else can you go at 3am on a study break and get a halfway decent meal?

Now if you want a real culinary delight while you are in "The 'ville" go out
to a little town called Milan. It's out past Novinger and it's a predominately Latino (trying to be PC here...) community. There is a taqueria (Taco shop) there that is absolutely fantastic. I forget the name, but it's on the main square.

Also the farmer's market is a great place to get fresh veggies.

I think you have "pancake city gift certificates" confused with "herpes", which is the real gift that keeps on giving.

You obviously haven't heard of the frequent diner club that Pancake City so graciously offers. By the way...what's the difference between love and herpes?....Herpes lasts forever.

True... but the crap in your arteries from pancake city also lasts forever.

...a rumor I heard once said that the OMM department at KCOM was teaching some sort of "energy diagnosis" by which you were supposed to be able to diagnose somatic dysfunction by holding your hands near someone's body without touching them and feeling the changes in the person's energy field that the somatic dysfunction caused.

I found that a bit hard to believe given how well KCOM is spoken of, but given that there are the 1%ers who take cranial seriously I figured I'd ask anyway.

uh... i seriously doubt this

 

[Cancer Man]

I'm not sure what an "energy diagnosis" is. I've never heard of that term before. What I can say is that when there is an acute somatic disfuction, there is usually a dilation of blood vessels which in turn can make the tissue a little warmer. But not by much. You really have to concentrate to feel it.

Apparently, such a course has been taught as an elective at DMU a few summers ago.

Haven't heard of it yet if its at DMU, but I'll keep you posted. I do know that DMU was/is the cranial capitol...for those not interested in practicing medicine.

 

[TexasTriathlete]

I heard that they teach you how to use a light saber at KCOM. And how to move stuff around by pointing at it.

 

[rddoms]

I can confirm the light saber training. As a masters student I am forced to be a training dummy And Pancake ctiy is the greatest study place ever!!! Oh, the nights of drinking coffee and studying biochem... I can't wait until I start.

I've been enjoying Pancake City (The Sh itty) for years now as a Truman Student, and also look forward to studying late and repeatedly running for the bathroom to 'evacuate' the greasiness that is The Shi tty. There's a reason for the nickname.

Don't think of it as grease. Thick of it as Gastrointestinal accelerant.
