The demise of former Denim & Diamonds owner Dennis Hess was the feature story, "Denim & Death," in this week's edition of The Pitch. Hess' life, violent marriage and death is the type of story whispered about but rarely aired out. It's a disturbing read but a must read.

Also in this week's issue, the Crap Archivist brought us the final installment of Ms. Rockwell's calendar (circa 1982). If you need to catch up, here's the first and the second. Scherstuhl also loves the Kansas City Repertory Theatre's latest production, Palomino.

The Buckle Bunny looks at Vedera's major label leap.

Ferruzza reviews Hot Basil in Overland Park. And Janovy gives a look at Eric Sall's Isolated Incidents at the Dolphin.

On the Plog, we learned:

Porn may be an alternative career route for ex-K-State football players.

We probably shouldn't sign for FedEx packages full of drugs.

The owners of the Bad Seed Farm are fighting the city for their -- and everyone else's -- right to expand.

Rejecting cheesy pick-up lines is easy, if you have this book.

Alien illegal immigrant Halloween costumes are not racist (your votes, not mine).
