I've heard it said that perception is reality. That's not true because I had a perception that some actresses were from Missouri and have learned many aren't. I've also discovered many famous actresses that are from the Show Me State that I never thought would be the case.
It's history is rich and it's famous for some very good reasons. However, this now-abandoned Missouri bridge is also notorious for being the scene of a double murder in 1991.
The Empire TV series was one of the most popular for 5 years. Now, you can see inside one of the mansions featured on the show that just happens to be a real place in Illinois.
When you think of actors that were born in Missouri, there are several that come to mind and many of those are wrong. Brad Pitt, for example, grew up in Missouri but was not born here. I found a new list that included many actors that were born in the Show Me State and many surprised me and maybe they will you, too.
It's easy spending other people's money. With that disclaimer out of the way, I think I know the perfect location for a drive-in theater in Hannibal and I believe a fortune could be made if someone could make it happen.
If you're up for a minor road trip this weekend, you can enjoy a real drive-in movie again as there's one opening in Illinois with a real throwback flick.
Don't you hate it when you head out to fight crime and something keeps you from being the superhero you know you are? That happened to a Missouri guy recently as he was all set to go out and be Spiderman until a seat belt foiled him.
