Capers and CocktailsThe 29 Year Old HS Senior
In early 2023 in New Brunswick, New Jersey, a peculiar tale unfolded. It was a story on its face of outright, strange deception. But underneath, maybe a sadder tale of longing and nostalgia, where the lines between reality and fiction blurred, leaving many perplexed and intrigued. At the center of it all was Hyejeong (Heh-jong) Shin, a 29-year-old woman who made a choice I really cannot relate to, and made some extreme moves to rewrite her life story, living the real life story of Never Been Kissed, at least for a few days.

Capers and CocktailsA Halloween HauntingAt the top of the tallest building in a cluster of red brick buildings overlooking a neighborhood in South St. Louis, there is one building towering above the rest. Painted on that building, one sign stands taller than the others and cannot be covered up; it is visible from all parts of the nearby metropolis. At the tallest point of the brewery, a bold white letter spelling out "Lemp" is painted on dark red bricks. Although it just has four letters, those letters say plenty about St. Louis's lore and history, and ghosts that just won’t die..

Capers and CocktailsCursed Bunk BedsIn early February 1987, Allen and Debbie Tallman brought home a $100 bunk bed they bought at a used furniture store. They put it together and stored it in the basement. But the night they moved it upstairs to their daughters’ bedroom, and the girls slept in it, it marked the beginning of nine months of horrors for the entire family. In a story straight out of a horror film, or maybe not quite a horror film, we explore the dangers of buying used furniture in today’s case of the cursed bunk beds.

In one well-known incident from 1974, a man in Texas very much on purpose murdered his eight-year-old son by giving his own kids cyanide-laced Pixy Stix, a story we covered last year on Margs & Mayhem.

These crimes also had a similar high level of coordination preparation. But this crime got capital letter status, including the “the” in “The Great Train Robbery.” This “unspeakable” crime, this “heinous” act, would later be summed up in the memoirs of the man who prosecuted the criminals, Mr. Edward Harranby, who said: "There are times in any professional's life when the elements requisi...2023-04-0418 min

Hushed grays, blues, browns and greens show an almost other-worldly, imaginary scene with only winding paths and a distant bridge bringing our imagination back to earth. The horizon line is painted level with her eyes, linking her inextricably with the landscape and increasing the intrigue of the figure herself.
