<\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\nThe girl I alternately call “my bratty but adorable adopted lil sis” and “Butt Slut #1” had her birthday on Wednesday. Our friends Randy and Theresa brought her a birthday cake to Bardog yesterday. It was a strawberry cake decorated with 5 roses the colors of her team the Dallas Cowboys. (ugh)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ve been teasing Butt Slut #1 relentlessly the past two days, some of it bordering on crossing the line. So she paid me back by picking up a rose off the cake and smooshing it all over my face. For the next 3 hours I wore the icing like a badge of honor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking of butt sluts: There is now a Butt Slut cocktail at the Blind Bear. It consists of<\/p>\n\n\n\n
- \n
- Peach moonshine<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Blackberry moonshine<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Fireball<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Jameson Orange<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Topped with a cherry<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Not sure of the proportions or the price. Maddie invented it, so I’d recommend having her make it if possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On a related note: I must admit I’ve always been a tad jealous of my “DAWG” John D because for a decade, he had an item named after him on the Majestic’s now-defunct brunch menu. John D’s Breakfast was just your basic breakfast – eggs, bacon, sausage, toast, and potatoes if I remember correctly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well, guess what.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’m about to have a menu item at Blind Bear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They’re overhauling their menu soon. Jeannette texted me the new menu and asked me to pick an item. She suggested the meatloaf sandwich. I love meatloaf so that was an easy yes. I’ve had a poker table (Paul’s Blue Ribbon Table) named after me since day one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now let’s talk Tigers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s so frustrating. Whether Penny or Tubby or Pastner is the coach, these kids jack up bad attempts at the 3 first chance they get. Work together, guys. Drive the ball inside and lay it up for an easy 2. Draw a foul, get to the line, earn that 3rd point the old-fashioned way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Tigers lost to Tulane 90-89 in overtime, a game they should have easily won. Memphis is gonna find itself on the wrong side of the NCAA bubble if it keeps this up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Pro Bowl Games are the Downtown Olympics of the NFL. That’s not a compliment. All they need is a sixty year old emcee in a bad tux and a female head referee with a 3-ring binder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s National Fart Day<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Don Bryant and the Bo-Keys <\/a>play the Halloran Centre Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Protesters blocked the intersection of Poplar and Danny Thomas<\/a> for more than 8 hours yesterday to demand justice for Tyre Nichols.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The U.S. shot down a suspected Chinese spy balloon<\/a> off the Carolina coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Grizzlies host the Toronto Raptors at 6. Tonight is Faith & Family Night at the arena. TV: Bally Sports South<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Collage Dance Collective: RISE<\/a> is at the Cannon Center today. The dance performance is set to Dr. King’s final public speech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hey y’all want a bonus Butt Slut #1 pic?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’ll do it for today. Mondays are typically slow news days so I may take tomorrow off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
