"I am from the Lou and I am proud!"…read more If you have ever spent time in St. Louis, you know exactly why. This city has a heartbeat all its own, a mix of sports passion, Midwestern warmth, world class attractions, and that unmistakable STL spirit. When it comes to sports, St. Louis shows out. You get Cardinals baseball lighting up Busch Stadium all summer, Blues hockey bringing fierce energy in the winter, and St. Louis CITY SC filling the pitch with an electric vibe that has the whole city rallying behind soccer. No matter the season, STL fans show up loud and proud. And the city brings the flavor too, whether you are visiting the Saint Louis Zoo, one of the best and free in the country, wandering Forest Park, or eating your way through The Hill. Try some of the top favorites including toasted ravioli, gooey butter cake, provel cheese on some stl style pizza and all the STL classics that turn visitors into regulars. If you are looking for a city with heart, pride, and plenty to explore, St. Louis shows up big. And as Nelly said, "I am from the Lou and I am proud."

Having spent the majority of my adult years in the military and not having to worry about licensing…read moreor titling vehicles no matter where or how many times I moved around the country, I suddenly realized when I finally settled in St Louis how lucky I had been. This week I had two encounters with the City's Assessor's Office/Collector of Revenue downtown at City Hall. No matter what you have to do over there, it seems they always yell at you and refer you to "Room 115" which is where the 25 employees with piss poor customer service skills sit around doing nothing all day doing who knows what but sure do get bent out of shape when you come in and take a number. This office is where you get your "Tax Waiver" which states that despite the fact that you've been paying personal property taxes to the city for years, you had no tax liability last year so now you can get whatever you want done and pay more money. I swear these sour-pussed "helpers" are there as gatekeepers to test your resolve before you enter a lower circle of hell. If you can't deal with their ire, run away! Next, you either go to the office with a bunch of bank teller like windows where the people are smiling and nice until you get up to their window and they tell you what a jacktard you are and that you need to go to "Room 110" (I may have my room numbers mixed up, but if you've been there, you know what I'm talking about). So I finally get to the correct room and luckily, despite the crowd, my number is called in short order. The sour-puss at this window gives me the whole "whadda you want?" glare and I present my forms to transfer title. I have a huge tax check, my old registration, title, bill of sale, driver's license, proof of insurance, tax waiver, safety inspection and emissions test from last July. Surely, I'm good to go, right? Wrong! Where is your new emissions test? I didn't know...I just got a 2 year plate last year and my current test is not expired... WRONG! WHAT THE $%^&#$^%$% ARE YOU THINKING? GET OUT OF MY LINE!!! COME BACK WHEN YOU'VE PULLED YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR NETHER REGION!!! Holy crap! I've had my ass chewed a time or three in my life, but these brutes really know how to foul up a brother's day. So, shit, I fire back at this customer service specialist. Look Lady, I don't know who pissed in your Wheaties today (I like that one) but I am on a clock to get my sales tax paid to the state so I can get my new title to the bank (I purchased a lease) and at the very least let me pay my sales tax and get my title work started. "Well...I could do that, but if I do you will be driving on an bad registration because the title will not be in your name or the banks..." Yeah...well if I get pulled over between the time I get my emissions checked and get back here, I guess I'll deal with it. So, little miss can't be wrong takes my check, issues me a receipt and hands me back my paperwork...or at least most of it. I find out the next afternoon after I made it to Midas and got my emissions tested, that biatch had kept my "Tax Waiver" and that I would have to go back to "Room 115" and get a new one. Listen up!!!!! I will not go back to Room 115. You see that sour-pussed bitch sitting right over there in that cage? Yes, the one that looks like she just smelled a bowl of warm piss...yes, that one. She took my friggin' Tax Waiver yesterday and didn't give it back! While I glanced over my shoulder for security, she slurks off and has conversation with old sour. She comes back and mumbles something about how they would never hold onto the tax waiver, but in my case, since old sour recognized me from yesterday she vaguely remembers that I had the form then so it is okay to proceed. So I pay my new extortion to the city/state, get my third set of new plates in 15 months (yes...remember last year when they switched designs?) and get the fuck outta Dodge. Oh yeah...even year so I couldn't get a 2-year plate. See you fine folks next year...ugh! But wait...did I really get in and out of there in less than 46 minutes? I must have, because when I got outside my meter still had 3 minutes left on it. It only cost me 80 cents for that 46 minutes. A quarter at City Hall only gets you about 12 minutes. What a rip.

I know, I know. What the fuck are you doing reviewing the cops? They're not a business (or ARE…read morethey?) Look folks, since I moved back to my hometown, after fifteen or so years of living in other wonderful areas, I have been mugged once, my car has been broken into twice, and now, to top it all off, my house has been robbed. When I get shot, I'll probably just laugh and shrug it off. It's da 'Lou, right? Anyhoo, we were robbed in the morning, and when I returned home from work to find my front door unlocked and my living room tossed, I immediately called 911. Two unis showed up, guns drawn and ready to kick ass. Of course, the thieves were long gone, but the show was impressive. The two officers and the crime lab guy were all that they should have been: empathetic, friendly, concerned, and informative. (Just as a point of reference, when my apartment was broken into in Chicago, while I was IN it, the friendly Windy City cop told me I should have yelled at the robber and pulled a knife from my kitchen drawer on him. Sage advice indeed.) STLPD answered my questions, did a complete search of the house, and treated me like a decent human being (which I can be.) What I'm saying is that I have had more than a few positive interactions with STLPD's finest. I know they're are bad apples in every bunch. I'm glad I haven't had to deal with them yet.

I don't get why we have cops and I am a Republican. 90%of you just sit and try to catch speeders…read morewhich really, who are they hurting except the liberal Toyota and Subaru driver that sit in the left lane and drive less than the speed limit. But you never see them pulled over for impeding traffic. Then when you call a cop for an actual problem, like 6 of them show up and only one actually does something. And then a hour later they all leave with to my knowledge, nothing resolved. I think I would rather have that overly fat/ partially dork hall monitor from high school show up and help me. At least they take better notes and have some results. But I guess we pay cops just to shoot poor people and people they don't trust so I see why they are in St. Louis

The worker quickly processed my renewal request, ignoring that I didn't have an updated insurance card. I had a question regarding later re-titling my two autos and she wasn't sure so she called her supervisor. She then came back to her computer, looked up a couple things, and still had some questions, so she called her supervisor again until she was certain she understood everything. I was grateful that she didn't just pass the buck and let me make mistakes She printed out the forms I needed and I was on my way. Excellent!

It should not be this complicated to renew a license plate or get a driver's license. I went to this office THREE days in a row, each day getting turned away for ONE reason, getting that fixed, returning the next day for them to find ONE other reason to decline me. On the 3rd attempt, I was turned away again, because my sister scratched out an error on the title when she was transferring her car to me, they said she'd have to sign an affidavit stating she didn't do it to be deceitful, that it was just an accident then I return with her signed affidavit. I asked if it needed to be notarized, they said no, just have her sign it. But when I came back with it signed, they asked where my sister was. My sister was in the car, she is ill and on oxygen. They told me if she didn't come up with me, they wouldn't accept it. I told them they could come down to the car to see her, but they wouldn't do that. I spent 3 days, several hours, fooling with them trying to just get plates for a car my sister gave me, and never got it accomplished there. I left there, went to a dmv on St. Charles Rock Road in Bridgeton, and left there in less than 10 minutes with plates for the car from a very professional clerk with no "I hate this job" attitude like the ones downtown. I understand legal is legal, paperwork has to be legal, but the petty things they were giving me such a hard time about (scratching out 2 numbers because she realized she was putting down the wrong address) and standing in that hot hallway waiting for the woman to spend 15 minutes screening each person were unnecessary, it's just a license plate, not an issue of national security. There were lots of elderly people waiting in that line who could barely walk, let alone stand for an hour to wait for her to screen them. One old man had been there the day before when I was there and got turned away both times, the first time because he needed 2 pieces of mail with his name on it, the 2nd time because the 2 pieces of mail he brought were both from Spire, it needed to be from 2 different companies. So this elderly, retired vet stood in line for an hour both days for tags, just for tags, not for the keys to the money vault, and was turned away both times, that's disgraceful and disrespectful.
