New to St. Louis?  When you have reason to celebrate and are feeling prosperous, I recommend the Sidney Street Cafe, 2000 Sidney St.  The menu is eclectic and changes daily, written on little chalkboards -- the servers recite the details in detail.  I would wear a jacket and bring money (including the wine list).

Your message title motivates me to tell a story.  I went to Washington University (St. Louis) with an Oklahoma good ol' boy who had worked the Texas oil fields.  He was happy-go-lucky, and his favorite saying (which he repeated often) was "Sometimes you get the bear, sometimes the bear gets you."

It wasn't until thirty years after I graduated that I realized there is more than one way to spell 'bear'.

I got no problems.
     Other people got problems.
