Newsy news: Playoff tix, rock climbing wall, oyster dinner, electric charging stations, SMA meeting, Nuh-Uh Gift, Visible School, WP meetup tonight

It’s a busy news day, so let’s hit it…

The Grizzlies have announced that first-round playoff tickets will go on sale Sunday. More info here. If the Grizzlies win a remaining game or Houston loses one, we’re in. Opponent could be the Spurs, Lakers or Mavericks, depending on how 6th through 8th places fall in the Western Conference.

It’s ClimBRIDGES night tonight at BRIDGES, where you can climb their indoor rock wall. Kerry from the I Love Memphis Blog did it last summer and filed this report.

Another oyster dinner has been announced for Downtown. It will be at Sole on Thursday, April 21. Diners will get eight varieties of prepared oysters, each paired with wine. Call 901-334-5950 for reservations.

Here’s a link to a list of planned eletric charging stations for the city. Several are located Downtown.

The monthly South Main Association meeting will be next Tuesday, April 12, at Klein Fitness at the corner of Main and Vance. Free for members, $5 for non-members, with social at 6 and presentation at 6:30. Presentations by the owner of the gym and by the Memphis Farmers Market health education chair. $2 beer, $3 wine, free hors d’oeuvres. Free food? Wonder if the Nuh-Uh Girl will show up.

Speaking of whom, for those of you who know the Nuh-Uh Girl, here’s the perfect present to get her.

Downtown’s Visible School has announced it will change its name to Visible Music College in a complete rebranding effort.

Tonight I’ll be attending the WordPress meetup at EmergeMemphis (6 PM), where Otto42 will speak. Earlier in the week, I posted that Otto is one of the top contributors to the WordPress codebase. He corrected me, telling me it would be more accurate to say he’s one of the top contributors to the WordPress community rather than codebase…

How about this? Otto is one of the top contributors to revenue at Max’s Sports Bar. I know I’m right on that count. Anyway, if you’re into WordPress, I hope to get to meet you tonight. If you’re not into WordPress and you’re looking for something else to do, the Redbirds’ home opener is tonight at 7:05.
