Home Sweet Home

I grew up in a small town about half-way between Greensboro and Durham called Mebane. Since I left for college nine years ago, Mebane has changed a lot. There has been quite a bit of development around I-40, and they have tried to make the downton area a place where people want to come hang out.

Today, I went to Mebane to pick up some t-shirts for my softball team1. While I was waiting for my order, I talked to the lady who runs the sporting goods store. She mentioned that someone is filming a movie about zombies in Mebane. I didn't have a clue what she was talking about. So, I came home and Googled: Zombies Mebane. Mebane has hit the big time. The Southern Undead, formerly known as Redneck Zombies from Mebane is in the works.

In other Alamance County news...
The Burlington Indians are now The Burlington Royals

Jimmy Mayton has been inducted into the Mebane Sports Hall of Fame2 Seriously.

You can get dinner at A&M Grill for $2.95. The early bird special comes with BBQ, fries, cole slaw, and all the hush puppies you can eat for less than three bucks.3

In unrelated news...
My kid is probably the cutest two foot tall human on the planet.

  1. back I can't find a place like this in Raleigh. Does anyone know of a place that prints t-shirts as a part of their business? I have found plenty of t-shirt vendors, but they don't really like to print six shirts. They usually want you to order like 25 or more.

  2. back What?!? They have a Mebane Sports Hall of Fame?

  3. back You can't get fast food for that price. Rachael Ray should do $40 a day in Mebane.

wow. Mebane Hall of Fame.

Looks like Jimmy is in some pretty good company with the likes of Fred Brady and Tommy from Tommy's Mini-Mart...

way to go Mr. Mayton.


And I'll definitely have to stop by A&M next time I'm in town (before 6:00)
