What do these bumper-stickers mean (might be an upstate SC "thing").

ReMEMber!

and

Remember MEM!

I've seen quite a few of them in Greenville, SC, lately. The MEM must stand for something. Perhaps somebody's initials?

3. I'll ask a waitress friend (my sister-in-law) when we see her tonight.

She will know. She knows all (and I say that with respect!).

4. Remember "Mem" Steddon?

Eleanor Boardman stars as Remember "Mem" Steddon, a small-town girl who has just married the amorous but mysterious Owen Scudder (Lew Cody). Suddenly and inexplicably terrified of her new husband, Mem jumps off their westbound train in the middle of a California desert. Wandering through the heat and dust, she is rescued by an Arabian prince on camelback -- having stumbled onto the location shoot of a Hollywood epic. Mem finds a home among show people, and is given a job as actress. But it isn't easy. One seasoned veteran (Arthur Hoyt) tells her, in classic showbiz-speak, "I'll make an actress of you if I have to break your heart and every bone in your body!" In one of the film's most effective scenes, Mem mugs shamelessly during a screen test, and then must painfully endure the results in the presence of studio executives. Instead of being played for laughs, it is a poignant (almost tragic) moment in which Mem is humbled, and realizes that screen acting is not as easy as it looks. In a hilarious twist on the overnight-star formula, Mem finally gets her big break when a huge spotlight crushes the legs of a film's leading lady... and must take her place in front of the cameras.

Mem's husband, we discover, is a modern Bluebeard, offing his well-insured wives as a means of avoiding honest work. When he discovers Mem's new career, he comes running to reclaim his bride (and the fortune attached to her). Fate intervenes, as it must. When Scudder invades the filming of Mem's new circus picture, lightning sets the big top ablaze, putting into motion a suitably melodramatic climax.
