This statue has been featured on STL DPB before. Aristide Maillol's La Rivière is one of my favorite works in Citygarden. I just liked the light and color as darkness approached. If the image looks a little disorienting, imagine rotating it 90 degrees clockwise. That's how it was shot and you can understand how the lamp sits in the water ...

It was far too frustrating, and I seriously doubt my ability to be even somewhat rational about it. So I just won't even try.  ... I also won't talk about how frustrating it was to see, after believing my team smart enough to have finally kicked him to the curb, Aaron Miles back in a Cardinal uniform. I won't talk about how much it pissed me off to see the ovation, either. Nope. Just not

You know what?  F**k that game last night.  We are paying Matt Holliday 120 million for the sole purpose of driving in runs and protecting Albert, and he strands two runners on in the bottom of the ninth in a tie game.  That by itself doesn't mean much, but, Holliday ranks around 100th in baseball in RBI's this year (seriously) despite playing virtually every game this year and batting 4th in all of them, and Pujols is on pace
