After 102 years of holding it's annual convention in Memphis, Tennessee, COGIC is looking for a new site to hold it's growing members of convention visitors to another city's site. Members of the COGIC planning committee met on Weddesday, April 15, 2009 to determine where the next place will take them. Cities and sites are still moving up for discussion. The spokeman for the committee, Lorgan Mann stated to a local news reporter.."It's like when you have more children you look for a bigger house with more rooms, then eventually you'll have to move." Visitors of the convention complained that Memphis did not have enough afforable hotels and occupancy to house the 50,000 visitors each year, and that the travel to the convention locations were too distant to move. (COGIC stands for Church of God In Christ.) The COGIC Convention is .....or was; once held yearly each November.

APRIL 15TH DEADLINE HAD THOUSANDS MOVING IN MEMPHIS
04.15.2009
Memphis, TN
April 15th was the deadline for filing your 2008 taxes. Thousands of Memphians waited for the last day to make their move. Lines were long at the drive thru mailboxes to meet that postmark date. Tax filers will face a penalty if they haven't made the deadline. There is hope for an extension, but you'll need to move on working on getting that extension any day now. There was a Good Samaritian making his moves with free postage stamps at the downtown post office location, Sonny Howard, said he was trying to help out giving away postage to those late filers who didn't have adequate postage.
That was a nice move Sonny...I wonder if he has any postage left?
CHOP! CHOP!
Eventually, it has come for me, and I've got to move.
Thank you for MOVING by just to read.
You'll come back and see me won't you?
CHECKMATE!
"Ahh,.. . It's your MOVE...."
