You’ve Got to Change Your Pace, I Did That
Word is out that Tom Stauffer is leaving the Arizona Daily Star to become a food writer at the Tucson Citizen.
When I first saw Stauffer’s byline at the Star, I was a bit taken aback. I thought, “hey, is that the same Tom Stauffer that is in the Drakes with Gene Ruley?” I found out that yes, it was.
Stauffer was also leader of a band called Bull Horn, an excellent but criminally unremembered Baja Arizona band in the early 1990’s that released one single for a song called “Hell Mountain.”
(Bull Horn also featured on bass a redheaded woman named Cheri Taylor. No really good reason to mention her ‘cept it gives me an excuse to remember her. Back to your regularly scheduled blog.)
Interestingly, when C. J. Karamargin left the star, he became a food writer at the Citizen too. Then, he moved on to work as a press aide to Gabrielle Giffords. So, the next natural step would be to work for a member of congress. Not much chance of an opening soon though.

Next race is in 2008 though so there is a teeny chance it could happen. But so could a major earthquake taking out St. Louis.
