St. Louisans have been waiting to hear from Warren Buffet about his opinion on the InBev buyout of Anheuser-Busch. Buffet is a billionaire and a major shareholder of A-B stock, so his opinion is important. He owns 5%, which is more than the Busch family owns. They own over 4%. Well, the wait is unofficially over.
According to anonymous sources in the Belgian newspaper De Standaard, Buffet is in favor of the buyout.
It seems that A-B may be looking into purchasing Grupo Modelo, a Mexican brewing firm. This move would make A-B too expensive for InBev to purchase.
We'll see what happens... :)
50-year-old Matthew Wilson was found guilty of assaulting a realtor in St. Charles County, Missouri. The jury's verdict came in at around 1:30 this morning.
Wilson represented himself in his trial. His sentencing is scheduled for July 18th. He could receive life in prison.
I didn't know the realtor who was attacked, but I pray that she will recover fully from this horrible experience.
The big news in the St. Louis, MO area is that Anheuser-Busch (the nation's biggest brewery and based in St. Louis) received a $46 bilion buyout offer from a Belgian brewer name InBev.
InBev is known for it's aggressive cost-cutting, so the St. Louisans are not too excited about this. They are afraid that many people will lose their jobs.
This is not a "for sure" thing, so we will just have to wait and see what happens... :)

Last night, spectators watched Rick Ankiel make another spectacular play. The Cardinals played the Pirates in St. Louis, and in the 2nd inning, Ankiel leapt to make what appeared to be an impossible catch!
Ankiel started out as a pitcher a few years ago. He showed some promise but had some "wild" episodes. Since he's changed positions, he's played some pretty amazing baseball.
I think Ankiel has found his niche... :)
Stray Rescue of St. Louis is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to rescuing stray animals and placing them in loving homes.
I just found out this morning that they won a contest from zootoo. It was based upon the support the organizations receive.
