5 THINGS: Bikes, Wrasslin’ and Cowboys

Here are the Five Things for Tuesday, January 17, 2012:

NBX looking for zone change. Continuing off a , at tonight’s council meeting there will be continued talk about the zoning change request by NBX. Basically, NBX wants to move further down Boston Neck Road, on to a bigger and more accessible lot, but the proposed move has drawn criticism from abutters. For more on that, and the entire 109-page council packet, see the attached PDF, or click here for town’s ClerkBase entry. The council meets at 7:30 p.m, following a 6:30 p.m. work session with auditors.

Tuesday Night Raw! The Narragansett High School wrestling team (4-5, 4-2 Division II-South) hosts Tolman (2-3, 2-3 Division II-North) at 7 p.m. There will be no Rock Bottoms or Go To Sleeps, however, the Mariners should still be favorites against the Tigers. Wrestling is the only home team, but…

Basketball and swimming, oh my! … Several have away games. The boys’ basketball team (5-6, 3-4 Division II-South) attempts to improve their state tournament seeding with a 7 p.m. game at Shea High School (9-2, 5-2 Division II-Central). The boys currently have the 28^th seed, out of 32 teams. Junior varsity is at 5:15 p.m. Girls’ swimming (0-2, 0-2 Division I) faces Barrington (2-2, 2-2 Division I) at the Bayside Family YMCA at 5:45 p.m.

It is factually true that some indeed do like it hot. Remember when movies could be sultry without being slutty? Maybe you need a refresher course? Some Like It Hot, starring Marilyn Monroe, Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon, will be shown at the Maury Loontjens Memorial Library at 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. For more information, click .

Happy 42^nd birthday, Kid Rock! Where would I be without your kind of rock, kind of metal, kind of rap songs about Detroit? … Well, probably the same exact place. But hey, I remember how cool “Cowboy” was in 1999, so you’ll always have that going for you.
