I'm not the type of guy who e-mails news stories to my friends and family. I figure, if it's that interesting, they'll find out about it either way. Readers of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch's website, STLtoday, apparently love keeping people up to date on the latest in St. Louis area news. Here are a few of yesterday's most e-mailed stories:
"Pridefest Parade gains a mainstream commercial feel"
"Cardinals and Jesus take the field at Busch"
"Tick removal tips"
"A list of personal records can ease your life...and your death"
"Acne drug on trial in Edwardsville"
Let's sum this up - they're turning Pridefest into Woodstock '99. Christ himself took the field for the Cardinals (apparently this wasn't enough to thwart the Jewish Shawn Green from hitting a walk-off homer). St. Louisans don't know that pulling on ticks usually does the trick. And the last two, well, they speak for themselves.
If you dig a little deeper (most e-mailed stories of the past 7 days), you'll find an article called "Aging monkey is loose in St. Charles County." A 40-year old female monkey, weighing between 6 and 8 pounds, was last seen Thursday. I think she's been found alive since this article was printed, but damnit....we here at the Daily Grego were hoping for a sadder ending, involving a screeching predatory bird, darting from the sky like an F15.
