- The Flyer's Chris Herrington is right: this is the greatest Grizzlies photo of all time.
- Finally! Something's being done with the old Chicago Pizza Factory building in Overton Park. The new restaurant, which is called Chiwawa, will serve a magical (and affordable) combination of authentic Mexican food, hot dogs and Yolo.
- There's also a new microbrewery opening on the Eastern edge of downtown. High Cotton Brewing Company has plans to open a brewery with an attached tap room.
- If you've got too many strawberries (can you have too many strawberries?), the Chubby Vegetarian has a solution in the form of a perfect spring cocktail.
- Mid-South Spay and Neuter Services received a $10,000 grant that's going to allow them to provide spay and neuter services to dogs and cats owned by low-income and senior citizens for $10 – $25.
- Attention, facially hirsute dudes and crafty ladies- you'll want to ditch your razors and stay tuned for a contest coming up later this week.

It is too bad the Chicago piazza factory is closed. Memphis is missing out on the taste of a great deep dish Chicago pizza. I hope the new resteraunt does well.

Is there any other place in the area that serves a pizza that thick and good?

David, that would be called lasagna. Pizza should be thin! In all seriousness, I keep hearing about some Chicago style pizza place in Southaven.

That place in Southaven/Horn Lake is call Wise Guys. And yes it is serious Chicago style deep dish one piece and you're done.
