Happy Hour: That Stinks
- MTA confirmed that as of July 1, bus fares will be up to $1.60 and five routes (plus Night Owl service) will be discontinued. No. 1 Vine Hill, No. 13 Sylvan Park, No. 16 Madison/Old Hickory, No. 31X Harpeth Valley and No. 45X Oak Hill Express are the affected routes. [City Paper]
- Hundreds of dogs, plus some cats, birds, cows and horses were removed from a “puppy mill” in Hickman County – the largest raid of its kind in Tennessee history. 101 Dalmations, anyone? [WSMV]
- Kanye is at it again, this time mouthing off about his Bonnaroo performance (or lack thereof). A new blog from Kanye West is always a good excuse to hold a dramatic reading. [WKRN]
- Two MORE Tennesseeans ate the tomatoes and got sick. We can’t say we didn’t warn you. [WSMV]

Photo Of The Day: June 25, 2008
We loved everything about this summertime macro shot by Chris1051 from the colors to the composure to part where it makes us want to go outside and find a quiet spot in the park for a picnic.
Photo Of The Day will be a recurring feature for Nashvillest as long you keep giving us stuff to post. Don’t worry- We’ll give you props. Just add them to the pool or tag them with “Nashvillest†if you’re feeling lazy.

Cher Fanatic: Does He Believe In Life After Love?
Our friends at WKRN have the exclusive scoop on Cher’s fateful visit to Nashville last night, and the story just gets better and better. She started out in Nashvillest’s neck of the woods at the Bluebird Cafe in Green Hills before heading down to Tootsie’s on Broadway and getting a accosted by some crazy fan. The fan was arrested and now his really unflattering mugshot is up on the internets for all the world to see. Check out the five-part story, complete with the mugshot and arrest warrant, over at Music City TV.

Bright & Early: Limited Access Edition
Good morning, Nashville. The state held a series of town hall meetings yesterday for state employees to talk about the buyout offers they’ve been mailing out over the past week. Trouble is, one really knows what went on because they wouldn’t allow the media or the public into them. As of now, about 2,300 state employees are looking at accepting buyout offers or being laid off.
- Boots strapped. After five multi-million dollar lawsuits were filed against him in the past month, Boots owes a total of about $88M to creditors, which is $35M more than he actually has. Let that be a lesson, kids.
- Powering down. More Nashvillians are going without power because they can’t afford to pay their electric bills. About a third of low-income households haven’t paid the full amount or haven’t paid at all, and about 1 in 5 moderate-income households. NES has been consistently shutting off electricity to 400 homes per day.
- Bits & pieces. Another wandering black bear sighted in Oak Ridge … High-speed chase during rush hour yesterday in Gallatin … Ralph Nader says something about Barack Obama “talking white” … Second Harvest’s mobile food bank is out of money.
