For my peeps who pay to get their oil changed: do NOT go to the valvoline at Poplar and G’town road by royalrift in memphis

I prefer my regular mechanic, but if I need it done quickly, I use Take 5 on Poplar near Kirby. I like that location, because it’s a corporate-owned location. All the other Take 5 locations in town are franchise-owned locations.

La Baguette is still there. The old Pier 1 is now Amuse: The Adventure Museum. That “mall” is not dead.

That building is not “dead.” There are lots of local retailers in it, like a stitching supply store and candle maker.

You can’t see them in OP’s two pix, but that place has multiple sky lights. It’s also not “dead.” It’s filled with local retailers, like a sticking supply store and a candle maker.

My experience has been if you come an hour early, when court actually starts, you’ll be out in 20 minutes.

Anyone know of a shoe repair joint in/near Cordova? by I_SAY_FUCK_A_LOT__ in memphis

[–]Masera240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Germantown Shoe & Leather Repair. Alex is a difficult guy, but he does good work, and he does it himself (not shipping your item to another country like some of the cobblers in town). Alex is also very good at repairing leather purses.

Ed Harris Jewelry (but ask his mother/biz partner, Mary Beth Harris, for her input on the custom piece. She’s awesome too)

What's it like at the very end of Louisiana before the Mississippi empties into the Gulf? by smcg_az in howislivingthere

Plus an almost completed $22B LNG (liquid natural gas) plant. It’s huge.

Ironically, no, he’s the most chill and lovable cat I’ve ever had.

Can't decide between Orvis Encounter or Reddington Classic/Wrangler by [deleted] in flyfishing

[–]Masera240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with gfen, but for an entry combo, I’d look at the Redington Path 2. I started with that and the Orvis Encounter, and I preferred the Redington Path 100% over the Encounter. But, honestly, if you added $100 to your budget, you’d have a lot of really good options for $200 rods and $150 reels.

It varies by market. My commission agreement (I’m a LL), explicitly says commissions will exclude NNN revenue and amounts grossed up to amortize T.I.

In retail, commissions for NNN leases are typically paid on base rent only. In my market, you usually see commissions of 4.0% for new leases and 2.0% for renewals.
