Kansas: In the news today

Yes, the State of Kansas is in the news in two different ways today. First, it seems there is a gentleman in Denver who bought a Kansas missile silo just North of Salina and he's turning it into end-of-the-world, doomsday condominiums--for the wealthy. They're expensive.
The second story today out of Kansas comes from covering wacky museums. They mention and show the Barbed Wire Museum out in LaCrosse. Apparently, however, they just didn't have enough space in their article to cover Leila's Hair Museum out in Independence (Missouri). Darn shame, that. Someone mentioned in the comments, too, that they should have noted the Prairie Dog Museum out in Scott, Kansas. Oh, yeah.
