Bright & Early: Do You Believe In Magic Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We’ve all heard about the federal budget woes ad nauseum over the past few weeks, and now the money troubles are hitting us where it really hurts: Our airport. The Nashville International Airport has been undergoing some extensive renovations recently which have resulted in some awfully confusing Monday mornings trying to pick our way around construction [...]
Bright & Early: Flash Bang Boom Edition
Good morning, Nashville. News Channel 5′s investigative team found that County Clerk John Arriola has been charging a $40 fee for his employees to perform weddings, and then pocketing the cash. Though the state allows employees to collect gratuities in this situation–and Arriola insists that the $40 charge is just that–NC5′s team found that it wasn’t necessarily [...]
Bright & Early: Meep Meep Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We hope you enjoyed your long weekend as much as we did, and if you’re not one of the 45,500 people who gathered around the giant U2 space ship on Saturday, you can read all about it over at the Tennessean. Or maybe you were one of the 125,000 people who headed [...]
Bright & Early: Charrrrge Edition

Battlecries were shouted, alliances were formed, news crews were ambushed, and some strangers even united to build an impressive 7-foot snowman. The snow is supposed to taper off [...]
Bright & Early: A World Of Pain Edition
Good morning, Nashville. The TVA ash spill is set to be heard in the US Senate today, but since there aren’t any federal regulations that dictate how you’re supposed to dispose of coal ash, it’s doubtful that anything will happen. This, of course, means that we the customers will probably be footing the bill for [...]
Bright & Early: Watch Where You Step Edition
Good morning, Nashville. Been to the Shelby Street pedestrian bridge lately? Apparently it smells like urine, vomit, and alcohol. Where do we sign up? And in case you missed it, WSMV has been kind enough to supply us with some close-up pictures of these alleged “nasty spots,” which we’re guessing are Photoshopped. Wait, what’s that [...]
Happy Hour: Buyer’s Remorse
The fingerprints of Elvis, one of the most famous Tennesseans ever, went for nearly $82K at an overseas auction yesterday. Apparently there are some big Elvis fans on the other side of the pond. [WSMV] It looks like there’s a McCain rally and debate party in the works since a group filed a request to [...]
