Earlier this week we were the first to bring you the story about a local man looking for a live-in secretary who will pick up his kid from school, be “semi professional” and “semi respectable” and enjoys his interest in “420”…oh and hopefully have sex with him.

…yeah you’d hate to get someone that’s any more than “semi” respectable. It would totally ruin your whole business venture that is definitely not…unretarded.

Wow, thanks Telegraph. The British paper recently had an article in their “Expat Life” section claiming that St. Louis is the best city in America for the Brits to visit. The author is Mark Sutherland, who moved to St. Louis 20 years ago and apparently has yet to have been murdered. Always nice to hear a success story!

Sutherland just loves him some St. Louis. You can find all the English flavor you need…

The Rally Saint Louis project is a first-of-its-kind crowdsourcing and crowdfunding platform that generates ideas and uses funding from the region’s residents and then uses those ideas to help market greater Saint Louis.  It has been over a year in the making, and it’s an effort unlike anything ever attempted, not just in the Saint Louis region, but across the U.S.

Interesting idea. We just hope there are more to the submissions than various hipster activities, and instead see some trying to focus on the big issues standing in the way of making the city considerably more livable: crime, education or swapping out our stale area government officials for shiny new ones.

Jerry Berger’s been around for forever, talkin’ that old timey gossip around these parts. Stuff like this…

Super Bowl XLVII, the biggest concert gig in the world, will feature **Beyonce **on Feb. 3 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.  **Madonna **performed in last year’s halftime show.

Huge news! Can’t get that anywhere else but BergersBeat.com! …and…

The Shane Co. jewelers is eyeing the old Flotken’s Market space on the north side of Olive Boulevard just east of Warson Road in Olivette.  . .Brown Smith Wallace is moving to the Brown Shoe building at Hunter at Maryland Avenues in Clayton and sold its building to the St. Louis County Port Authority

What do local news reporters turn to when they need a story, but nothing’s going on in our fair city? Time and time again, they turn to grass. No, that’s not even being used as a term for marijuana…the horrible truth is we’re actually talking about grass. A news story about grass. Seriously. Again. You local news people are horrible. Can’t imagine why everyone but old and retarded people think your broadcasts suck.

It’s been talked about to death in some parts of the St. Louis-focused internet, but it’s still funny so here’s the video of Fox News talker Bill O’Reilly trying to make fun of the Post Dispatch without making us laugh. He’s so angry!

Reality: You’re both just horrible.

KMOV (Channel 4) reporter Matt Sczesny and it wasn’t by someone who got overly frustrated after trying to spell Sczesny’s name phonetically like you’d imagine. Turns out it was just some guy who wandered over while they were on a story.

Sczesny was in Alorton standing outside a KMOV truck when a man walked up to him and asked if he could ask him a question. Sczesny said sure, and the man punched him, according to Sean McLaughlin, KMOV’s executive news director.

The Cardinals had quite a roller-coaster of a weekend, but that’s even more true for Cardinal closer Jason Motte who blew the save Saturday night, but then closed out the win on Sunday evening. You didn’t even have to watch the games to know that, you could have just watched Twitter!

Here’s the crazies going off on Motte on Saturday night:

Cats and 90’s alternative rock music have finally converged. Nothing else will ever be better than this…unless you’re Collective Soul who is now no doubt going through their back catalog and realizing that many of their songs could easily include a meow to make them substantially more interesting. Off the top of our heads, in addition to the below Shine: Gel, December, Heavy, Breathe, and Goodnight, Good Guy could all easily incorporate this cat.

Much of the St. Louis area had their TVs tuned to the Mizzou game Saturday night, and if that describes your TV, you missed this on the Fox Sports Midwest broadcast of the Cardinals game:

No,  Jim Hayes’ rug isn’t all that interesting, but the guy just to the left of his rug, making the universal “rug munching” sign is pretty funny.

…and the “Missouri Lottery Cardinals Live” is up next! Be sure to call in your suggestion to trade Skip Schumaker to the Yankees for everyone they have that’s good, because it totally sounds plausible.
