Christina-Marie Wright's Book is a good one!

I found this fascinating quote today:

Christina-Marie Wright can tell a story. Whether you are reading her stories in her first book, Everything I Need to Know about Motherhood I Learned from Animal House, or listening to them over coffee or drinks, Christina-Marie is engaging, honest, and incredibly funny. This collection of essays documents the joys and tribulations of mothering 7 kids, while being the charming wife of Mr. Wright, blogging, writing, and teaching. Her blog, The Gonzo Mama, takes “mommy blogging” to a whole new dimension. Erma Bombeck entertained the moms of Boomers decades ago. With Everything I Need to Know about Motherhood I Learned from Animal House, Christina-Marie takes the lead as the modern Mama humorist.memphisrealestatebuzz.com, Mrs. Wright, the Gonzo Mama, publishes her first book, Jun 2010

Weeds grow as the Pyramid waits for Bass Pro Shops

From today's edition of Joe Spake's Weblog:

The original title of this post was “Is this any way to run an urban bait shop?,” but I am trying to get my negative attitude under control.  I was driving by the Pyramid the other day and caught the glitter of a tear in the eye of Ramses the Great.  The pyramid site is suffering from lack of maintenance.  Weeds on Ramses’ throne! Shocking!joespakeblog.com, Is this any way to run an urban sporting goods superstore?, Jun 2010

Photos - Machine Gun Kelly homes in Memphis

These days when I hear “Machine Gun Kelly”, one of my favorite Memphis Roller Derby divas comes to mind.  The original Machine Gun  Kelly (George Kelly Barnes) was a famous bank robber during the prohibition era. He grew up in Memphis, attended Mississippi State for a while, picked up a machine gun, had a daring life of crime, and was captured in Memphis in 1933.  The midtown house where he grew up is still around, as is the midtown house where he was captured.  You can figure out which is which.
[Correction:  Machine Kelly was a bootlegger and kidnapper - probably not a bank robber]

For Sale - 2399 Eastwood Ave - Memphis, Tennessee's last Lustron House

This is the last existing Lustron House in Memphis. The Lustrons were introduced after World War II, as affordable, low-maintenance housing. All structural elements of the home are porcelain steel: roof, exterior and exterior walls. It is cozy and quite interesting with pocket doors and a stainless kitchen.
The lot is fairly large and the yard is fenced.
Convenient to the Zoo, Snowden School, Rhodes College and Sam Cooper Blvd.
