## Resource

Bill McClellan’s latest columns deliver sharp, relatable insights into the quirks and heart of St. Louis—whether it’s the bureaucratic nightmare of getting license plates, the emotional weight of a father figure’s legacy, or the messy politics of local policing. He blends everyday frustrations with big-picture reflections, from Cardinals’ succession plans to the eerie disconnect of automated grief rituals. With stories like Hanna Rose’s escape from Nazi Germany and his own reckoning with aging and tech, McClellan proves that the most powerful narratives are often found in the ordinary moments that shape our lives.
