I'm the bird-in-chief at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. To be honest, my feathers are having more and more trouble tapping tweets.

When people ask what my favorite story has been to write, I always say Sk8 Liborius: fun interview, great cause & a cool, historic building. I feel for those guys 😔 stltoday.com/news/local/met…

Horrible news this morning about Sk8 Liborius. The team did such good work in fixing that building and providing a refuge for skaters and kids. stltoday.com/news/local/cri…

When Doves Fly... Loved this story’s many surprises, from young doves ("squabs," apparently) finding their way home from across the state, to the unfortunate encounter a flock had with the Olympic cauldron in 1988.

Dove releases boom in the St. Louis area. Owners train them to return from miles away. stltoday.com/news/local/met…

My grandma’s fav artist. Still remember getting home from school when the Queen of Rock n’ Roll was on Oprah, grandma sat us down and told us to listen. Haven’t stopped listening since. RIP Queen.

Tina Turner, unstoppable superstar whose hits included 'What's Love Got to Do With It,' has died at 83 stltoday.com/entertainment/…

My favorite Tina Turner memory remains how my mother on more than one occasion pulled the car to the curb when "Private Dancer" was on the radio. When Tina sang "I wanna...make a million dollars," mom thought that vocal growl was an ambulance behind her. shorturl.at/adnwH

My family once hosted an exchange student from Finland and when we asked if she knew anything about our hometown, she replied: “the only thing I know about Saint Louis is that you have a river and you have Tina Turner.”
