Bright & Early: What To Do With Bellevue Edition
Good morning, Nashville. Folks in Bellevue have been talking with the Metro Council about rezoning the Bellevue Center Mall turned into another incarnation of Hillwood High School, whose current building would be shut down.

Bright & Early: Now Or Never Edition
Good morning, Nashville. The proposed Music City Center is coming up for a final vote at tonight’s Metro Council meeting, though most folks are saying that it’s pretty much a done deal.

Dancing Donuts: Operation Save-The-Sign A Success, We Hope
Last week, we all but called for a full-out revolt against the idea of trashing the city’s beloved old Donut Den sign in favor of a new, classier, and way more boring design.

78 of Tennessee’s 95 counties saw a decrease in their unemployment rate last month, and Perry County (remember when their unemployment reached 26%?) saw the biggest drop.

The TVA had a little malfunction [...]
