Wow. I’ve had a “number two” every day this week after work. Referring to blog posts, of course.
PRO TIP: If you need to have a “number two” at Memphis in May BBQ Fest, the porta-john at Squeal Street BBQ is a good place to do it. Find Squeal Street in the Patio Porker section.
IMPORTANT PBR NEWS: On August 20, Mellow Mushroom at 5138 Park and 3075 Village Shops Drive will have 75 cent PBR as they roll their menu prices back to 1974 prices for the day. Yeah I know that’s not Downtown, but 75 cent PBR is news even if you have to travel to less desirable parts of the city.
From the Flyer: Amtrak would like to add an additional route running from Central Station to Chicago. Yay for more transportation options that don’t involve driving!
Couple of basketball stories to round out the day:
Dominic Woodson is transferring out of the Memphis Tigers basketball program. He seemed to have a lot of potential but there also were behavior/maturity issues.
The Bleacher Report has a great article on former Memphis Grizzly DeMarre Carroll and his unlikely rise through the NBA ranks to become starting small forward for the Atlanta Hawks. With so many setbacks in his life, the odds were against him getting there. Happy to see that he made it.
Four-day weekend starts NOW! I am off tomorrow and Monday. Jessica has already texted me a pic of the Fireball bottle that awaits me at Silly Goose, so I better get down there.
