The Memphis Business Journal reports that a new lounge called The Silly Goose<\/strong> will open in the space formerly occupied by Swig by December.\u00a0 It will be operated by several partners who know the area well, including Daniel Masters who used to bartend at Dan McGuinness.\u00a0 It will be a laid-back lounge, the article states, a place for locals to go, with over 400 different types of liquor.\u00a0 They’ll have plenty of wine and beer on hand too.\u00a0 They’ll serve lunch and dinner, and will have a happy hour from 3 to 8 PM and a second happy hour from 11 PM to 3 AM.\u00a0 I can’t wait for this place to open.<\/p>\n

Fun times at Big Foot’s party last night.\u00a0 I got there at 8 before the place got crowded and drank a Super Cold Coors Light.\u00a0 Several times I’ve noticed the Super Cold machine and thought, wow, they made it look like it’s covered in ice.\u00a0 Well, last night I found out how they did it… it really\u00a0is ice all over the machine.\u00a0 So you truly are getting beer at below-freezing temperatures.<\/p>\n

They had Meghan out from behind the bar, hostessing in a low-cut blouse and one of her old Flying Saucer miniskirts and not serving any customers.\u00a0 Truly Big Foot has discovered how to best utilize Meghan’s talents.\u00a0 My compliments to whomever placed a fan near the kitchen entrance, which blew her skirt up every time she walked by.<\/p>\n

Plans for tonight:\u00a0 None whatsoever.\u00a0 I need a good night’s rest to be ready to go for the Cooper-Young Festival tomorrow.\u00a0 I’ve decided I’m going to ride my bike down there… I plan on getting there around 10:30, and will be at the festival until it ends at 7.\u00a0 Mmmm… looking forward to a day of festival food.\u00a0 Gyros and pizza and stuff.\u00a0 I hope those nachos from Germantown Commissary are back this year.\u00a0 I also hope that the convenience store at Cooper and Evelyn has stocked up on PBR tall-boys.<\/p>\n
