During a special meeting last week, the Pine Bluff Urban Renewal Agency approved two letters of intent for future developments for the city. The first letter approved was to negotiate a public-private partnership with Oasis Fresh Market grocery store in the 71603 zip code, and the other was to award Ratliff Enterprises Inc. and Big Banjo Pizza Parlor Inc. with a public-private partnership as the Go Kart Track Food and Beverage Vending company at 2100 E. Harding Ave.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a hungry person in possession of an empty stomach must be in want of a pizza. Or, at least, I think that's what Jane Austen said. For me, pizza is just a perfect food. Even the worst pizza ... is still somehow completely satisfying. As Arkansans, we're lucky to have a glut of great options -- like Raduno in Little Rock, Pizzeria Ruby in Springdale and even Pine Bluff's The Big Banjo, where so many of my childhood birthday parties took place.
