Cats of Kansas City

Many people have lost faith in the news and question truth from all comers. The idea of a universal truth, outside of the sky being blue and that one plus one equals two, seems to be more and more elusive. One thing that everyone can agree on, however, is that cats are the world's greatest pets. Dogs are fine, sure, but they aren't cats. Fish are kind of fun to look at...for like five minutes. Cats though? No fact check needed. They're the best.

Virginia was home to many Civil War battles between April 12, 1861, and May 26, 1865. Remnants from the war between the states continue to be found in the Commonwealth today. In March 2021, The Washington Post reported that children playing in the Seaford area of York, Virginia, found a Civil War-era cannonball buried two feet underground. The children took it to their parents, who called 911. The York-Poquoson Sheriff's office said the cannonball was to be disposed of by an explosion.
