Thur update: South Main fitness center, web dev/marketing job, Music Fest lineup, Danko video, “Mouth of the South” headed to WWE

A new fitness center, Klein Fitness, will open at 338 S. Main. Opening night will be Trolley Night on the 25th. The MBJ has the details.

I’ve heard that a job similar to mine may be coming open at a well-known Memphis company (not my company)… Web designer, but in a Marketing department where the successful candidate would be as much of an idea person as a developer. Shoot an e-mail to paul@paulryburn.com if you’re interested and I’ll tell you what I’ve heard. Can’t divulge the company name, but can get a resume to those on the inside.

The lineup for Music Fest ’11 was announced today. Chris Herrington of the Memphis Flyer has an excellent breakdown, day by day, stage by stage.

Memphis Connect has an excellent video of Shawn and Lana Danko, owners of Kooky Canuck, discussing why Memphis is a great place to start a business. The article hints that there may be more Kookys soon. Wouldn’t mind seeing one in Southaven to visit on my lunch breaks. Would have to refrain from the 34 oz. beers though…

Local wrestling legend is scheduled Jerry “The King” Lawler is booked for a match at WrestleMania for the first time ever, against fellow announcer Michael Cole. On Monday Cole announced that wrestler Jack Swagger would be in his corner. Well, it looks like the King may be about to even the odds. According to a tweet Hulk Hogan made, his buddy Jimmy “Mouth of the South” Hart is on his way back to WWE to manage Lawler. I hope that turns out to be true… would love to see Lawler reunited with his sometime manager/sometime nemesis.

It’s a nice night for a walk. I think I’ll walk down to Max’s Sports Bar and see if I can win another gift certificate at their poker night. Afterward, will stop by the Saucer for a little while.
