Clarine Knapp owns Studio C at 317 Commercial in downtown Emporia. It’s a loft studio, so there are some stairs. I went for a haircut today. This was my first time at Studio C. Other than occasional trims, I hadn’t had a new on-purpose style since… 2003? That’s when I had spiked hair (!) and […]

I stopped by Studio 11 last week to purchase a stocking cap because hey, it’s winter. And it’s almost Christmas – look there’s the tree and the Christmas records. Some of us are old enough to remember slipping the LPs out of the jacket and then out of the sleeve and placing the record on […]

Today’s Flyover People column as seen in The Emporia Gazette: THAT GRATITUDE THING I’m thankful for my spleen, for its unseen and heretofore unacknowledged work.
