[Suburbia Lost] Two Wendy’s and a White Castle

The Suburbia Lost series began naturally shifting to the back burner after, well, I moved out of the suburbs and back to the city several years ago.

You can’t fully comprehend our present reality until you’ve wandered the aisles of a Dollar General built into a former Golden Corral.

Two Nights at the Ballpark (Nearly) Twenty Years Apart

I never liked Adam Dunn and I’m still upset that the Reds let Dusty Baker go in an effort to retain the joke that was Bryan Price.

Yes to the Gem

A spontaneous investigation of semi-local lore in the midst of an inane apocalypse.

Having a Drink with Stephanie & Geo

“I just didn’t want to be waiting here too long. Trapped, politely feigning interest in the uninteresting. Trying to make sense of the nonsensical.”

Two De Niro’s, Limited Late-Night Pizza Options, and a Phantom Hardware Store

“So, imagine the palpable and genuine sense of bliss that washed over me one evening as I trudged through the grey snow. There, in the distance, just a few blocks from where I lay my head—the bright, red glow of neon cutting through the winds of a midwestern winter: ‘Pizza.’”
