New this year is a steak competition, and I hear the samples passed out at these steak cookoffs are really, really good.<\/p>\n<p>Late yesterday afternoon I finally saw the map of the park. Sushi Jimmi is our across-the-lane neighbor! Excellent! Flying Saucer is very close by as well. I like our little section of Tiger Lane!<\/p>\n<p>Seen on Twitter yesterday: &#8220;Why isn&#8217;t there a Memphis drag queen named Forest Hill Irene?&#8221; That&#8217;s a really good question!<\/p>\n<p>More info about that free wrestling card at Handy Park on October 19 at 7 PM. In addition to the main event of Jerry Lawler vs. Buff Bagwell, Dustin Starr, Bill Dundee, Grandmaster Sexay, Doug Gilbert, and Koko B. Ware will be there. I wonder if Frankie the parrot will be there with Koko?<\/p>\n<p>Interesting fact I learned while thinking about this: The large red parrots that we normally think of when somebody says &#8220;parrots&#8221; are macaws too. I thought only the blue parrots with the yellow underbodies were macaws. Thanks, Wikipedia!<\/p>\n<p>Check out the new <a href=\"http:\/\/memphis.gleague.nba.com\/\">Memphis Hustle website<\/a>.
