Disabled kids put ‘do’ in tae kwon do
Is this editor ignorant of martial arts, or is he or she saying the disabled children put the D’oh! in Tae kwon do? Because that isn’t pronounced like the verb do.

Francis Slay repeats call to join St. Louis County.
It’s 3am, and he’s promising to take the county back and forgive the county for letting the city dump it in the 1870s.
Keep calling, Slay. The Post-Dispatch will continue its breathless encouragement even as the two million plus county residents ignore your pleas to spend our tax money on your city residents.

Man charged with illegal dumping of debis
Who knew that the government now actually has laws about ending romances? On the other hand, what’s there to stop it now that “rule of law”, “contracts”, and “The Constitution” are void at the whim of the Elect(ed)?

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch front page headline on Sunday put a positive spin on any potential recession or economic slowing:
That is: A recession would have a positive impact on the obesity epidemic in America! I mean, if you’re tightening your belt, you’re losing weight, am I right?

MoDOT: Roads safer, more money needed
Do you get the sense that if the roads were less safe, more money would be needed anyway?
Roads remain the same….more money needed!
Flying cars invented, more money needed to convert the roads to bike paths!
Roads? Where we’re going we don’t need roads? More money needed to subsidize production of organic garbage for the Mr. Fusion.
Come on, everybody play “Think Inside The Bureaucratic Box”!
