Still not much better than yesterday. NyQuil seemed to help last night, but then I deteriorated through the day. Let’s get a quick post done then I’m going back to bed.
The Memphis Redbirds are demolishing their old video screen to make room for a new one. They’re posting photos of the demolition on Twitter @memphisredbirds.
I’ve received two confirmations for Downtown bars that will open early Saturday for the C-USA final, assuming Memphis is in: Max’s Sports Bar and Brass Door. Tiger game times, assuming they go through, are 6:30 Thursday (CBS Sports Network), 5:30 Friday (CBS Sports Network), 10:30 AM Saturday (CBS).
There’s a public meeting about the Harahan Bridge Project Monday the 12th, 5:30, Memphis College of Art, 477 S. Main. The meeting is to discuss an awesome plan to transform the Harahan Bridge, built in 1917 and taken out of commission in 1949 after the I-55 bridge was completed. The Harahan was a railroad bridge, but since the popularity of automobiles was on the rise, lanes were added on either side for cars. The Project wants to turn those side lanes, unused in 60 years, into pedestrian and bike pathways connecting Memphis and West Memphis.
Apologies that this post isn’t up to my usual writing style. Going to shoot some NyQuil, go to bed, and do my best to feel like going to work in the morning. Good luck to all my friends playing poker at the Blind Bear tonight.
