Bright & Early: Tut Tut, Looks Like… Snow?

Good morning, Nashville. Last night we heard reports of the very first blizzard of the season complete with howling winds and zillions and zillions of snow… flurries. Okay, so maybe it wasn’t exactly a blizzard, but snow is snow right? We doubt we’ll be seeing any more of the white stuff today, but it’ll definitely be chilly out there. The low tonight is expected to hit a teeth-chattering 20 degrees!

• From WSMV: “Some actors like to make sure they have another skill to fall back on, just in case the acting-thing doesn’t work out. But for Fred Thompson, acting is his back-up because the politics-thing didn’t work out the last time he tried it.” Poor Fred!
• It’s a bird! It’s a plane! Titans Coach Jeff Fisher, clearly too badass for ground transportation, parachuted into practice yesterday with members of the 101st Airborn Parachute Team. The guys watched in amazement and said they had no idea it was Coach Fish floating down from the sky until he got closer.
• Bits & pieces. Six more people from Tent City were placed in public housing this week … The lawsuit to take down the English Only ordinance isn’t linked to formal opposition … A study shows that 8% of Tennessee’s kids are uninsured and that most come from working families … If you make a 911 call from a city park, then you’re up the proverbial creek.
