A few quick ones to start off this lunchtime post, then I have a couple of longer items…<\/p>\n
First of all, Wiseacre Brewing Co. will make a decision by the end of March<\/a> whether to lease the Mid-South Coliseum to expand its brewery space.<\/p>\n An apartment developer wants to close Pontotoc<\/a> between Turley and Danny Thomas. This would put more FedExForum post-event traffic on congested MLK Jr. Ave. and Vance Ave.<\/p>\n The Shelby County Health Department is hiring<\/a> for several positions.<\/p>\n This morning I posted that I learned recently that “flying monkeys” is a psychological term. Here’s a page with more info on flying monkeys<\/a>.<\/p>\n In celebration of the arrival of Daylight Time, Ghost River is throwing a Spring Forward Festival<\/a> on Sunday, March 12. They will lead off with Brunch at the Brewery with the Flying Sobies truck as usual, with fried hens, waffles and fries from 12 to 4 in the afternoon. Brunch drinks will be available all day.<\/p>\n They’ll have a few spring-themed vendors in the brewery taproom from 2 to 6. These will include Gardens Oy Vey (indoor\/outdoor plants) and Somerset O’ Neill (hair flowers, headbands, gloves, coozies, and costume pieces and embellishments). They hope to add more vendors.<\/p>\n They will also have parking lot games including 4-square, ring toss, ladder toss, sidewalk chalk, and hula hoops on Sunday, and the games will be back on weekends from now on.<\/p>\n In conjunction with the time change, the weekly “Songwriter Sessions” will experience a time change as well. Formerly noon-3, the event will move to 5-7:30 and will transform into “Sunday Evening Slowdown.” Crockett Hall will host the event, and this Sunday he is bringing The Rusty Pieces.
