Longtime readers of this blog will remember Brick who worked at the Flying Saucer and the Silly Goose in years past. Brick got married yesterday. I have not met her new husband, but according to Facebook she married her best friend and that&#8217;s usually a very good sign. Congratulations to Brick and Colby.<\/p>\n<p>On to the news. Today is Memphis Farmers Market&#8217;s end-of-season celebration, the <a href=\"http:\/\/memphisfarmersmarket.org\/products\/barnyardballtickets\">Barnyard Ball<\/a>. There will be food from local restaurants as well as beer and wine on the Central Station pavilion. It will happen from 4 to 7 this afternoon and there will be a &#8220;boots and buckle&#8221; contest.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking of the Central Station pavilion, there will be a recycling drive there on Friday, November 15 from 3:00 to 6:30 in the afternoon. Most items will be able to be recycled free of charge, although there will be a charge for some large items like wood console TVs. If you bring a computer to recycle, it will have its hard drive wiped according to Department of Defense standards, so no worries about someone else seeing your data.<\/p>\n<p>Another event happening today is the SPAYtacular Gala and Silent Auction at the Jack Robinson Gallery on Huling, starting at 2 PM. This is the annual fundraiser for Mid-South Spay and Neuter Services. Ron Childers will emcee, and there will be a mimosa and Bloody Mary bar (it&#8217;s Sunday Fun Day!) and brunch food. Live music by Deering and Down and Vanessa Winter, wine and beer.<\/p>\n<p>Next Saturday, November 9, Shelton Clothiers will hold its final event. For $5 you can enjoy BBQ, beer and wine and the money will go to the Memphis Union Mission. The store will close permanently on November 16, so this is a good chance to do some shopping while you eat and drink.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, here are a couple of Halloween pictures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/2013-10-31-20.54.37.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-14562\" alt=\"2013-10-31 20.54.37\" src=\"http:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/2013-10-31-20.54.37.jpg?resize=500%2C375\" srcset=\"http:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/2013-10-31-20.54.37.jpg?resize=500%2C375 500w, http:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/2013-10-31-20.54.37.jpg?resize=300%2C225 300w, http:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/2013-10-31-20.54.37.jpg?w=1600 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 85vw, 500px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">That&#8217;s me on the left.

At some point Thursday I lost the brown makeup crayon so no goatee when I went to the Dirty Dozen party Friday night. As you can see my friends went to great lengths to dress up for Halloween.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/2013-10-31-21.03.27.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-14563\" alt=\"2013-10-31 21.03.27\" src=\"http:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/2013-10-31-21.03.27.jpg?resize=375%2C500\" srcset=\"http:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/2013-10-31-21.03.27.jpg?resize=375%2C500 375w, http:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/2013-10-31-21.03.27.jpg?resize=225%2C300 225w, http:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/2013-10-31-21.03.27.jpg?w=1200 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 375px) 85vw, 375px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Lacey and Wingsauce<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">That&#8217;ll do it for now.
