Back in the age of yore, when Hoosierweight Boxing reigned in backyards, streets and other assorted venues, I used to partake in a bit of the action.

In the interests of making this meta-exercise even more shoegazatory, I wanna note that tomorrow’s entry was written yesterday for posting today. But I wound up reading some stories of STLtoday.com this morning, and one jumped right into the make-a-mess-mix. Seems that local nostalgia merchant/savant Steve DeBellis is attempting to salvage the Goldenrod Showboat, but he’s [...] Don’t know about you, but my vehicle’s got a tape player.

At this point in my personal education, I know enough to get myself in trouble at a horse track. There’s [...] By popular request of one (Jim Utz, looking at you, bub), here’s the return of The 13, after a three-month summer break. Speaking of which, 11 days ’til school begins, so… Outings, Fairmount Park: This Tuesday. Racing starts at 1. Ends around 4. Pubs nearby are kicking by 5.
