Keep St. Louis Weird
From the Riverfront Times, an article about an Austin, TX mayoral candidate warning about Austin becoming more like St. Louis, the analogy being that St. Louis was once a great city and now it's not, and Austin is a great city. I think the comments had some interesting points (for once). Someone likened the general response to criticisms of St. Louis to "Custard and baseball." But my favorite has to be, "I’m familiar with 1904 St. Louis. I’ve studied 1904 St. Louis, and Austin, you’re no 1904 St. Louis!"
