The Other Cape Girardeau

I should have been arrested for impersonating a southeast Missourian.  For years, I drove to Cape Girardeau (southeast Missouri culture mecca) for shopping and to eat at a restaurant not found in my home town/county.   I never went to downtown Cape and I actually thought the downtown area was the location of the restaurants, malls, and big box stores.   One day, I got lost and found myself looking at several beautiful murals on the Missouri wall of fame (the Cape Girardeau flood wall).  There was President Truman, George Washington Carver, Walter kronkrite

  1. It was a funny story what you told me about Rush LImbaugh. I hope they never put him on it. Let him keep his fat, cold-hearted, hateful ass in Florida.

  2. I think he's on there, actually. I lived in nearby east Prairie for years and went to Cape for Buckner's, Saffron, the Schnuck's wine selection. The whole Rush Limbaugh fame issue totally creeped me out...

    Darrin, thanks for commenting last night. Just to let you know, I'm right there with you--we should close all caves to human access, immediately. That's what Tennessee state and federal agencies are doing, and Arkansas, as well. Unfortunately, I could tell you precisely why our state and federal agencies are chicken (thereby putting all bats at risk), but it's such a political issue, I shouldn't publish. Maybe we should meet up at River Ridge in Commerce one day...keep up the great work, Allison
