Walking in Memphis
I got to experience Memphis for the first time this past weekend. Daniel Jinks and I went to his parents' house for the weekend. Although I never really got to see the city of Memphis (but rather its suburbs), I really enjoyed it.
Some things I learned from my trip:
1. Daniel Jinks' dad is very funny and also very weird
2. I really miss David Dugas (who lives in Memphis, for those who don't know)
3. Every male in Millington has a handlebar mustache and a Dodge truck
4. Andrew Thornbury has a big dog that thinks it is a little dog (You just have to experience Elliot for yourself)
5. There is no 'S' in Collierville
6. Germantown has cameras at EVERY red light
7. David Dugas' mom is super nice
8. The age of EVERY building in Millington/Munford - courtesy of Daniel Jinks: "Those buildings weren't here when I graduated, and that one was built 3 months ago, and that one was owned by a pirate with a peg-leg before it burned down and was rebuilt last October."
9. There is an Ethiopian restaurant in Collierville...How? Ethiopians don't even eat (not my joke but apparently the official joke of Collierville)
I had a lot of fun in Memphis. I would visit it again.

Dude, good thing you didn't Go walking in Memphis. Two-three blocks north or south of Popular you will get shot. If you listen to that song. Those places it mentions are ghetto 2 the max. Graceland (Elvis' home) is also encompassed by a ghetto.
Wish I knew that you were stopping through Memphis last week. I dunno if i could have done anything because I am going on vacation soon and need to get stuff done for a garage sale later. I have yet to check out that ethiopian restaurant.
