The Delmar Loop has a burgeoning rockabilly district, what with the addition of Devil City, the sweet new clothing store that features brands like Stop Staring! and Red Wing Shoes, and Iron Age Studio, a great spot festooned with old-school tattoos. We don't know if greasers were prone to getting titanium rods jabbed through their...naughty bits, but if they did, they'd feel at home at Iron Age.

Back in 1947 an advertising copywriter named Frances Gerety dreamed up the slogan "A Diamond is Forever" for De Beers. With all apologies to Ms. Gerety, this just ain't true. Diamonds get lost.
