Wed update: BFF and mini-me pics, Henry Rollins, crawfish fest, pet fundraiser, Majestic

Greetings!  I have much news to report.  But before I get to that, let me announce that the Rapscallions took second place in trivia last night, raising our total to $250 for the next party.

Also before I get to the news, let me post a pic (taken last night after trivia) of my BFF and her mini-me, doing what they do best:

Damn, did my BFF fall asleep in a tanning bed and not wake up for like 3 days or something?

At one point my BFF and her mini-me came over while we were playing trivia and said, “Look, Paul!” and pointed out that they were wearing the same skirt.  Without missing a beat, I asked, “Are you wearing the same underwear too?”  We’ll see more BFF and mini-me pics later in this post.

I received an e-mail asking me to remind y’all that the Rajun Cajun Crawfish Fest on Wagner just in front of the river (between Union and Beale) happens Sunday, April 20, from noon to 6.  I am disappointed in myself due to my activities at last year’s crawfish fest (left for the Saucer at 2:45, never came back).  That’s not going to happen again.  This year I’m at the festival the entire 6 hours.  More news about the crawfish fest as the date approaches.

Main Street Dental is holding a fundraiser April 4 10 AM-5 PM for Sunny Meadows, safe haven for pets.  Custom bleaching trays for $100 ($500 value).  They’re also holding a silent auction… items from Flemings, Majestic Grill, Grizzlies, etc.

Congrats to the Majestic Grille, whom Forbes Traveler recently awarded the title “Best Steak in Memphis.”   They’ve now declared Wednesday “Patrick’s Famous Chili Day” and Friday “New England Clam Chowder Day,” for those who want to have their favorite soups on a regular basis.  They’re having a wine tasting featuring the wines of Francis Ford Coppola on March 26.

Beer report:  Hey, the Saucer managed to scan all three of my beer tickets from Sunday without losing any of them!  Great job guys!

Previous total:  $471.00

Beers 88, 89, and 90 (but 83, 84, and 85 according to the Saucer):
Old Peculier $5.50
Sam Adams Black Lager $4.00
Stella Artois draft $5.50
Tip $15.00 x ~ 30% = $5.00
Total $20.00

Grand total: $491.00

Time for more BFF and mini-me pictures.

My BFF is going to kill me for posting this one.

Time to go to work.  Got assigned a big project yesterday that’s going to require a lot of brainpower and energy.  After work:  Itta Bena 5:30-7:00, then I’ll head to the Saucer at 7 to do my 3 beers and watch the Tiger game.
