They tell me that if it goes well, they&#8217;ll consider doing other specials &#8211; perhaps a mayor&#8217;s special at the restaurant, or a checkin special at Corner Bar.<\/p>\n<p>I heard about a couple of Downtown tourism marketing jobs that I wanted to pass on. The first is a <a href=\"http:\/\/tbe.taleo.net\/NA12\/ats\/careers\/requisition.jsp?org=HORNBLOWERMARINE&amp;cws=5&amp;rid=191\">Graphic Designer position with the Great American Steamboat Company<\/a>. This is the company that will bring overnight riverboat cruises back to Memphis, docking at the soon-to-be-finished Beale Street Landing. They recently acquired office space in the Downtown core. They&#8217;re looking for someone with web design and online marketing skills, in addition to graphic design.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s also an <a href=\"http:\/\/jobs.prsa.org\/c\/job.cfm?site_id=2170&amp;jb=9118264\">online content and PR specialist position<\/a> open with a travel\/tourism firm. If you want to get into tourism marketing, including social media and mobile apps, this sounds like a good job for which to apply.<\/p>\n<p>The Fuzzy Brew blog has a good article on <a href=\"http:\/\/fuzzybrew.com\/2011\/12\/flying-saucer-to-host-beer-dessert-pairing-on-thursday-featuring-lazy-magnolia-beers\/\">the Flying Saucer&#8217;s beer and dessert pairing<\/a> Thursday night. Five beers, each paired with a dessert, and speaker Will Mestayer from Lazy Magnolia brewery.<\/p>\n<p>Another chance of snow in the forecast tonight. <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.memphisweather.net\">MemphisWeather.net&#8217;s blog<\/a> has the details. Just a dusting in the early AM, with temperature likely to stay 33 or higher. Dammit snow if you&#8217;re not going to fall in amounts\/temperatures that will close office buildings, don&#8217;t bother!<\/p>\n<p>On my way to the Saucer for a beer.
