Brides Against Breast Cancer is an organization that contributes to programs for cancer patients, their families and caregivers. Part of their outreach is a Nationwide Tour of Gowns bridal show. On Wednesday, June 17, this charity bridal event comes to Memphis<\/a>, at the Cadre Building at Second and Monroe. There will be a VIP event – with first pick of the gowns – from 5 to 7 which is $10, and from 7 to 10 there will be general admission, free to the public.<\/p>\n

Note to people who friend-request me on Facebook: I am totally happy to become friends with my blog readers who I have not met in person, but do me a favor. If we have less than 10 friends in common (unless they’re my close friends) and I don’t recognize the name I tend to be a bit skeptical. So, if we don’t have many friends in common, Facebook message me first (you don’t have to be friends with someone to send them a message) and tell me “hey I read your blog” and if you have met me previously, tell me how you met me.<\/p>\n

People whose requests I have left in limbo are welcome to message me and say “hey I read your blog\/hey I know you\/or whatever” and I will go find you and add you. Just trying to protect my account from potential scammers.<\/p>\n

Midtown: You’re getting a party bike similar to Downtown’s River City Pedalers. It’s called Sprock n’ Roll<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Are you hungry for some crawfish? The Green Beetle will hold a crawfish boil this Sunday from 2 until 6 in the afternoon.<\/p>\n

Brothers Pau and Marc Gasol have received the Princess Asturias Award<\/a>. This is the highest civil honor in Spain.<\/p>\n

St. Jude is launching a national walk\/run to end childhood cancer.<\/a> Needless to say, Memphis will be one of the participating cities.<\/p>\n

Deering and Down performs tomorrow on Felicia Suzanne’s patio as this week’s installment of their Tacos and Tunes event.<\/p>\n

PBR time. I’ll lead off at Silly Goose then figure out stops after that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
