Behind every sign put up in a restaurant, there is bound to be a story.
At Elliott’s on Second in Downtown Memphis, signs warn of disasters and doom due to salad bar abuses. We believe there must have been an epic salad bar heist in which someone spilled a drink as a diversion while his or her accomplice stole a bunch of salad, or, perhaps worse, made a second trip to the salad bar.
Let’s just hope these signs (with red highlights!) prevent future disasters of this nature so the honest patrons of Elliott’s can enjoy the appropriate amount of fixin’s on their “bake potato’s”.
Tennessee’s “Guns In Trunks” law takes effect today. State and city leaders are still not in agreement as to how this impacts employers’ rights to establish rules prohibiting guns on their property.

Such an ordinance should have the effect of short circuiting Midtowners brains to the point where they are utterly unable to respond to any proposed demolition.

You can also find products endorsed by one hit wonder, PSY.
We hope this heralds the way for Carly Ray Jepsen’s lucrative “Cauliflower, Baby” endorsement deal and Rebecca Black’s new role as a pitch person for TGI Friday’s frozen appetizers.
Men’s Wearhouse, the fancier cousin of The New York Suit Exchange, today fired founder and chairman George Zimmer.
His termination letter reportedly started as follows:
“You’re not going to like the rest of this letter. Guaranteed.”
