Shamichael Hallman had a piece in The Daily Memphian yesterday: Reimagining the Cossitt Library<\/a>. Work on the library starts today and should be complete by September. In the meantime the library has a pop-up location at the Puck Food Hall at 409 S. Main.<\/p>\n
This is sad news: A woman was run over by a car<\/a> in the parking garage above the Flying Saucer on New Year’s. Friends tell me that as of yesterday, she was on life support. (Edit: Updated story<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Yesterday I went to the Blind Bear and got my blackeyed peas for good luck in 2020.<\/p>\n
