Happy Hour: Do Your Pants Hang Low?

• The economy is in the crapper, like half of us have suffered through foreclosure or bankruptcy, most of us have probably been laid off at least once this year, and we’re worried about people sagging their pants? Seriously, we knew one of our illustrious lawmakers would hop on this bandwagon sooner or later. [WSMV]
• Hopefully you’ve made it through that massive traffic jam caused by the truck that crashed and spilled a bunch of fuel all over I-65. Or maybe you’re still sitting there. [WKRN]
• Good to know that someone’s benefiting from all the storms that have swept through here in the past month or two. Three African elephants at the Nashville Zoo are happily munching on some of the debris donated by NES, which is apparently both physically and mentally stimulating for them. [WTVF]
• The Metro Council is at least trying to stick up for us about our electric bills being sky-high last month, demanding justification the TVA about executive salaries since a whole lot of Nashvillians can’t afford to turn on their heat. [WKRN]
• Guns + booze = …. Awesome, but only until 11pm? [Tennessean]
