Damn. They’re killing Archie.<\/a><\/p>\n

The Grizzlies posted photos of the Grizz Girls auditions<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The city’s cease-and-desist letter to Lyft and Uber is not keeping their drivers off the streets<\/a>. The companies are telling drivers to keep driving, that “we’ve got your back.”<\/p>\n

Thanks to one of my readers who sent me this article about tube tops<\/a>. I’ve posted stuff like this before, but there’s some interesting new information: Tube tops are a very popular clothing item in the virtual world Second Life. A tube top in Second Life costs about 100 Lindens, or 38 cents U.S. dollars, or it did as of the time of the article. I wonder if there’s a Tube Top Month in Second Life.<\/p>\n

There are only 10 tickets left to the Memphis Made beer dinner at Bardog Thursday night. See last Thursday’s blog post (the first one, there were two) for the menu. Call 901-275-8752 to reserve your ticket.<\/p>\n

The Majestic Grille is donating $50 gift certificate to people who purchase season tickets to the Orpheum 2014-15 Broadway season through August 4. Season includes Phantom of the Opera, Once, A Christmas Story, The Lion King, Kinky Boots, and Motown the Musical. Call 901-525-3000 or visit the Orpheum counter at Booksellers at Laurelwood and use the code “MAJESTIC GRILLE” to redeem the offer. The Majestic offers a special “pre-theatre menu” prior to each Broadway show.<\/p>\n

The Brass Door is closed for a week and will reopen with a new menu and new events next week.<\/p>\n

Plans for tonight: Melissa Monday at Bardog then will figure out the rest from there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
