If you go hiking in the Missouri backcountry often enough, you'll eventually see some crazy things. For one Missouri person, that was a rare albino deer that suddenly appeared on the trail in front of him.

The wisest people I've known in the Missouri backcountry understand how to watch wildlife to understand when danger is near. That happened to one Missouri man who saw deer and rabbits fleeing the woods then found out the horrifying reason why.

A lot of Missourians are choosing to move to Florida. Good for them. Who wouldn't love sandy beaches and no snow? However, there are many reasons why Missouri people who make that choice are in for a rude awakening about what reality in the Sunshine State really is.

I don't know if he planned to run to the border, but a St. Louis, Missouri man allegedly did something very unusual. He stole a taco that wasn't his and he used (allegedly) a BB gun to do it.

Road trips are the best. They are even better when they take you on a trip through the history of America.

It's an understatement to say that Illinois is unique and I mean that as a compliment. That statement is never more true than when talking (literally) about the most common foreign language that's spoken in the Land of Lincoln. It's not the most popular non-English language in any other state.

If someone asks you how hot Missouri will be, it's best not to answer. I say this because someone did ask meteorologists what Missouri would feel like at the beginning of October and the answer was "Texas". Seriously.

The fact that I rarely eat cantaloupe anymore has finally paid off. There's a bulletin just issued by the government alerting the public to an urgent recall of what is normally a very healthy food to eat due to salmonella contamination.
