They are enforcing a &#8220;no guns&#8221; ban on the street. That will probably slow down entrance onto the street a little, but after reading that 200 to 300 guns have been confiscated this summer alone, I&#8217;m all for the detectors.<\/p>\n<p>Also in the news&#8230; there was a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myeyewitnessnews.com\/news\/local\/story\/Ceiling-Collapses-During-Luncheon-inside-Downtown\/TOQhSAC6Yku7XE556hdQnw.cspx?rss=59\">ceiling collapse<\/a> at the Scottish Rite building on Union, near the Office Depot on the outskirts of Downtown. The Sons of Confederate Veterans were having a lunch there, and as they stood in line for food, ceiling tiles started to fall. As they ran out of the building, the entire ceiling collapsed. No one was injured.<\/p>\n<p>Plans for tonight:\u00a0 Pint Nite, of course.\u00a0 It&#8217;s amazing that I&#8217;ve reached 124 beers toward my third plate and still have some Pint Nite drafts left to do.\u00a0 Going to try the newest beer on tap, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.victorybeer.com\/pils.html\">Victory Prima Pils<\/a>, tonight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I already announced the South Main Association meeting (tomorrow, 6 PM, The Orpheum), but I learned some more info in an e-mail this morning&#8230; SMA members will vote to amend the organization&#8217;s bylaws to clarify the SMA boundaries as the river on the west, Third on the east, Linden on the north, and Crump on &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/2009\/07\/13\/mon-update-sma-free-pilates-class-and-more\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Mon update: SMA, free Pilates class, and more&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4188"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4188"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4188\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4189,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4188\/revisions\/4189"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4188"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4188"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paulryburn.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4188"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<!-- WP Super Cache is installed but broken.
