Bright & Early: Rebuilding Edition
Good morning, Nashville. Saturday marks the start of the Nashville Build by the crew of Extreme Home Makeover and a few thousand volunteers. The crew will be rebuilding the home of a flood victim somewhere in Nashville and probably making it super-fancy since the mysterious beneficiary has likely been crammed into a hotel or friend’s [...]
Bright & Early: They’re Back Edition
Good morning, Nashville. That magical time of the year we call Football Season is upon us and the Titans kicked it off less-than-awesomely in Seattle on Saturday with a 20-18 loss. But! Chris Johnson seems to be picking up right where he left off last season and VY™ wasn’t looking too shabby either. Next time [...]
Bright & Early: Live Like We’re Drying Edition
Good morning, Nashville. According to the Tennesseans who have been dealing with FEMA over the past few days, help is arriving surprisingly fast. Tales of two-day application turnarounds, speedy inspectors and quick payments through direct deposit seem to be the norm. FEMA officials were also on-hand last night for two community meetings in Bellevue and [...]
Bright & Early: We’re Not In Kansas Anymore, Toto Edition
Good morning, Nashville. In light of the tornadoes that have swept through Nashville and the rest of Middle Tennessee in the last few years, Tennessee is now considered to be part of a new “tornado alley.” Though other states see a lot more tornadoes than we do, we’re actually leading the country in tornado-related fatalities. [...]
Bright & (Not So) Early: Fooling Around Edition
Good morning, Nashville. Because we just love you guys so much here at Nashvillest, we’re going to continue our annual tradition of being the one place on the internet that isn’t foolin’ around on this fine first day of April (and it is fine, isn’t it?) (and clearly, some of our friends don’t love you [...]
Bright & Early: Hello Goodbye Edition
Good morning, Nashville. A new federal stimulus grant has awarded $7.5 million to Nashville for fighting and preventing obesity. With the new funding, Metro hopes to create 40 full-time and 40 part-time jobs to help get the program off the ground. Though the details of the plan aren’t completely clear yet, we do know that [...]
Nashville Universities In The News
It’s painfully obvious that school is back in session. Mafiaoza’s is impossible to enter on 2-for-1 Tuesdays and Belmont is ever flailing the “Debate ’08″ signage. We poke fun, but we really are proud of our local universities. We hear about Vandy all the time, but Belmont and Lipscomb have had some pretty significant accomplishments [...]
Bright & Early: Best Week Ever Edition
Good morning, Nashville. What a weekend, huh? Some of us took an Urban Dare on Saturday while some were out in Franklin raving about the best BBQ in the world, and it seems like we didn’t get any sleep with all that thunder and ruckus on Saturday night. A couple of us are still recovering [...]
Bright & Early: School’s Out Edition
Good morning, Nashville. While the kids are enjoying their first day of summer bliss, WKRN brings us the sad story about a Dickson County high school senior who decided to go green and save gas by riding a horse to school yesterday. He thought it would be “cute” and “fun,” but apparently Dickson County schools [...]
