Yes, today. Drop everything. Rush. Panic. Beat the crowds. Today is the only day in the history of the human race, the only day EVER that there will be a release/signing party for my book The Making of an Icon: The Dreamers, The Schemers, and the Hard Hats Who Built the Gateway Arch. Grab $21.50 for a book, plus some more for the best eating ever, and head to the Tavern of Fine Arts, 313 Belt Avenue from 2 to 5 p.m. today. When your grandchildren ask “Where were you when Jim Merkel held the release/signing party for his book about the Gateway Arch?” you don’t want to tell them, “I was cutting the grass.”
