Demos': A Preemptive Strike?

From Peter Demos on the closing of the family's Florence restaurant: (We could’ve given) people more notice, but we didn’t want to do that for...safety issues, because there have been shootings recently, and we didn’t want to take the chance that somebody could do something crazy and hurt someone else.

Why did Peter Demos suspect something of that nature was a possibility in Florence? We may never know, but "almost 60 plus" employees losing their jobs obviously covers a great deal of the socio-cognitive spectrum, at least in a restaurant. Good luck to those who are now looking for work. Kudos to the Demos family for providing two-weeks severance pay to their former employees.

Almost 60 plus? Who wrote the TimesDaily article? Yogi Berra?

Pen N Sword was reporting on a new bikini sports bar in Muscle Shoals. The post seems to have evaporated. Now that's some hot news!

The Shoals' one previous attempt at a bikini type bar never materialized, but that was over 10 years ago. Is the Shoals ready for this type "entertainment?" Stay tuned.
