Memphasis > Shameful Performance
March 3rd, 2016
SHAME ON US. This week, the Memphis City Council ran over a whole room of citizens and a whole city and parked right on top of something they care about. Every council member should be ashamed. Perhaps they wanted to end a lawsuit and it’s attendant costs in both money and divisiveness, but it’s much more likely they bowed to the pressure of big ...

February 25th, 2016
COMING TO SAVE US IS STARVING US.

I’m calling in some relief, a few sports quotes friends have sent me that ...
Memphasis > A Bit More Super
