Bright & Early: Doing Our Snow Dance Edition
Good morning, Nashville. Weather forecasters are slowly beginning to crush our Snowpocalypse dreams by doing things like downgrading our Winter Storm Watch to a simple advisory and changing our snowfall projections to “around one inch.” Our trusty friends at NashvilleWX still have at least the northern half of Davidson County in the 2-3″ range. But [...]
Happy Hour: Down For The Count
Tennessee’s Golden Boy Vince Young was unable to finish practice today and left early to ice down that nasty-looking knee injury he sustained in Sunday’s bout with the Colts. Coach Fisher says he’s not extremely worried about Vince being ready to start by this weekend. [Tennessean]

Happy Hour: Skeletons In The Closet
This should make us all feel better: All of the rain has made some humain bones float into the Cumberland River, and those bones could apparently be 6,000 years old. Who the heck was in Tennessee 6,000 years ago besides the dinosaurs!? [WSMV]
If you frequent the downtown YMCA, you may notice that it’s closed. It [...]
Elena’s Cafe: Bubble Tea In Brentwood, Hooray!
We checked out Elena’s Cafe in Brentwood this past weekend after noticing a sign for bubble tea in front during a recent trip to the neighboring Chile Burrito. Immediately, we were disappointed that we didn’t arrive hungry for lunch, because their menu looked incredible – A broad selection of sandwiches, wraps, salads and lunch or [...]
Happy Hour: Building Up The Arsenal
How could we pass up a headline like this?: “Steelers Unveil Secret Weapon: Martina McBride.” [WTVF]
We’re happy to say that all 150 people on board the plane that crashed into the Hudson River right after take-off made it out safe and sound. [Tennessean]
Probably a bad segue on our part, but Southwest is also adding some [...]
Tennesseans Are Defying The Odds [Mixed Reviews]
Tennessee may be the 3rd/6th fattest state, but Williamson County is actually the 3rd skinniest county in the nation, and Maury County is 4th. [Thanks to Laurel for the tip!]
Tennessee may be the Volunteer State, but we rank 39th on the national scale of actual volunteer rates. Nashville fares a little better when compared to [...]
Bright & Early: Watch Where You Step Edition
Good morning, Nashville. A Brentwood Library branch is expanding, paving a parking lot over an old Indian burial ground from the 1400s. When the library was first built about 10 years ago, many artifacts including graves were removed from the ground, understandably upsetting the Native American community. This time they’ve at least done an archaeological [...]
Happy Hour: No Punch Backs
It’s a happy day for the ‘noogans! Volkswagen is moving in, which means lots of new jobs. Just not until 2011. [WKRN]
Also, they’re so excited that they’re ditching their lawnmowers for goats, since the animals have done such a “bang up job” mowing the kudzu. [WTVF]
Metro Schools is shifting around almost 70 principals and assistant [...]
Bright & Early: Wanna Get Away Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We hear it’s been a rough road for our favorite former Director of Schools Pedro Garcia ever since the city ran him out earlier this year, but we didn’t know it was this bad: He’s having such a hard time selling is $1.2M Brentwood mansion that he’s now throwing a pair of [...]
