Pink Slime, Peabody Rooftop Parties, Basketball

It's good to see that Kroger has announced that it will no longer sell beef with "pink slime" additives. The "slime"...err, "lean beef trimmings" are a widely used ingredient made from leftover beef trimmings that’s treated with an ammonia-based disinfectant. Sounds healthy.

On a better note, the Peabody Hotel has announced their 2012 Rooftop Party lineup. The season opens up with FreeSol on April 19th. Spring is usually the best season to go to the Thursday evening parties. The weather isn't overwhelmingly hot and everyone is in a festive mood.

Now that the Tigers basketball season is complete and that Will Barton has announced he is heading to the NBA, we can focus on the Grizzlies. It's looking like another play-off run is in the works. Now the team just needs to make sure that Gilbert Arenas can leave his guns at home.
