Recently I came across an email that said that certain events that had occurred had caused a minor kerfluffle. It was the first time in my life I could recall “kerfluffle” used in a sentence, and I looked it up on Dictionary.com.
kerfluffle
row, disturbance, c.1930, first in Canadian English, ult. from Scot. curfuffle.
It wasn’t wrong before I heard the word again. Wiseacre Brewery has announced that their KERFLUFFLE Oatmeal Stout is now on tap at the Flying Saucer. Tonight’s 7:30 trivia game has a bonus round where you could win a chance to take a tour of the brewery.
Going to the Grizzlies game tonight? Get there early if you want a Grizzlies scarf. They are free to the first 5000 fans. Last week’s headphone giveaway ran out in 15 minutes. Game time is 7 and Oklahoma City is the opponent.
Pretty smart to do those giveaways. They get people in the arena early, paying $10 for an extra beer they’d get for $4-5 if they pre-gamed at a bar down the street.
Uptown news: Sidewalk repairs on North Main between Henry and Keel beginning tomorrow. The repairs are funded by the Main2Main project that will connect Memphis’ Main Street with West Memphis’ Broadway.
From Lifehacker: Why You Make Bad Decisions when You’re Attracted to Someone. I’m tempted to email this link to a few people with the subject “2013: Your Year in Review.”
I’ll be at Tuesday night poker at the Blind Bear at 8. I may show up a little early to try one of the Bear’s new menu items. I had the crab cakes last night and they were fabulous; I will discuss them soon in a Paul’s PBR Review, but if you’re a fan of seafood do not wait for my review to come out to try these.
Hopefully everyone will play nice at poker tonight and no one will start a kerfluffle. Happy Tuesday everyone and Go Grizzlies!
