Memphis Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph bought 500 families Thanksgiving dinner. Turkey, mac & cheese, dressing, corn, green beans and brownies. “Memphis is my city,” Z-bo said. “I’ll do anything for them.” Am I not the only one who thinks there will one day be a Zach Randolph Blvd. somewhere in Memphis?<\/p>\n
The Flyer has an article about Ray’s World Famous Dr. Bar-b-que<\/a> which opened at Main and Pontotoc this week. Ray Nolan has been involved in 14 BBQ shops in the Memphis area. Rib plate for $10.95? Not a bad price.<\/p>\n It’s really neat how you can fall out of contact with friends for periods of time and pick up right back where you left off. Yesterday at Bardog I ran into my friend Ugly Steve and had a great conversation with him. Our lives have kind of paralleled each other since we were last in touch. Ugly moved back from Hawaii recently and told me a super-simple dish he learned to make out there called Loco Moco<\/a>. It’s a hamburger steak over rice topped with eggs over easy and gravy. Yum.<\/p>\n Felicia Suzanne’s Black Friday gift card sale is back this Friday, November 27. Buy a $100 gift card and get a $20 gift card for free.<\/p>\n I bet the Nuh-Uh Girl owns one of these: Portable pizza pouch lanyard lets you carry an extra slice everywhere you go<\/a><\/p>\n My friend Duck, who has been posting a lot of excellent stuff on Facebook lately, posted this yesterday: “Probably 90% of women who wear yoga pants don’t do yoga. And 100% of straight men don’t care.” THIS IS THE TRUTH.<\/p>\n For those of you who send Christmas cards, you can support a great charity while doing so: MIFA holiday cards<\/a><\/p>\n The DMC is launching the My HQ<\/a> campaign to get the word out what Downtown office space offers. If “you can eat lunch at Bardog” is not part of the campaign, they’re doing it wrong.<\/p>\n Lansky Bros. has launched a new, more user-friendly website<\/a>.<\/p>\n Trolley Night is back this Friday on South Main, with many shops and galleries open until 9 or later, with some having Black Friday specials\/discounts and some serving hors d’oeuvres, beer, and wine. Notable this month: There’s a Latin American fine art exhibit at Art Village Gallery at 410 S. Main, and a signing of Seven Days with the Hypocrites<\/em> at South Main Book Juggler, 548 S. Main.<\/p>\n The Grizzlies play Dallas tonight at FedExForum at 7.<\/p>\n I think I’m going to take my own advice with that “you can eat lunch at Bardog” thing. Back tomorrow with more random crap to talk about.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Memphis Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph bought 500 families Thanksgiving dinner.
