Happy Hour: Leave It To Beaver
A North Carolinian man stole a giant Statue of Liberty replica from the front yard of a Dickson County woman and it’s sort of a sad story. They caught the thief, but the statue is irreparable. [Tennessean]
Another unfortunate story that leaves us with an, er, interesting headline is this one: “Baby Unhurt After Being Left [...]
Nashville Sounds Introduce Thirsty-ish Throwback Thursdays
After lamenting the absence of Thirsty Thursdays last season at the newly-renovated Greer Stadium, we’re excited to deliver news of a new Nashville Sounds season promo day that’s so close to the Thirsty Thursdays of olde, we can taste it. The Nashville Sounds will introduce “Throwback Thursdays” this year, offering hot dogs, pretzels, nachos, sodas [...]
Happy Hour: MILK AND BREAD, MILK AND BREAD
The trusty fleet of TDOT salt trucks are already hitting the road to prepare for that Gigantic Winter Storm we’re supposed to get on Thursday. They’ll probably be slathering the pavement with some of that beet juice we heard about a few weeks ago, which lowers the freezing point of the salt mixture. [WKRN]

Bright & Early: It’s Never Going To Snow Here Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We hope you survived Snowpocalypse 2009, though we didn’t experience a whole lot of wintery weather worth writing home about here in Middle Tennessee. Our neighbors to the east, however, were a different story. Up in the northeastern corner of the state, Scott County emergency personnel are still working to repair some [...]
Happy Hour: Sully’s (Still) In The House
We’re hearing reports from our more hockey-savvy friends that Steve Sullivan just inked a new 2-year deal with the Preds. As you can see from his joyous tweet above, the fans aren’t the only ones excited about it. [The Twitter Tubes]
An Indiana theme park called Holiday World donated 37,000 pounds of food to Second Harvest [...]
Not-So-Thirsty-Thursdays At Greer Stadium In 2009
Don’t head to the newly-remodeled Greer Stadium next Thursday expecting to enjoy drink specials while you watch the Sounds play their season opener against the New Orleans Zephyrs. Though information has been (purposefully) vague, it doesn’t take a genius to check out the Sounds’ Promotional Schedule and notice the absence of what some would consider [...]
Bright & Early: Tough Times Ahead Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We mentioned last week a few times that Perry County, which is only about 90 miles southwest of Nashville, has an unemployment rate of 27%. We had a hard enough time wrapping our minds around that one, but now we’re hearing that it actually has the second highest unemployment rate in the [...]
Bright & Early: Must Love Babies Edition
Good morning, Nashville. An unemployment rate of 9.1% has left lots of folks bored and too broke to go out and do anything, which seems to us to be the only reasonable explanation for this little baby boom we’re experiencing here in Tennessee. Shelby, Davidson, and Rutherford Counties cranked out the most babies in the [...]
Happy Hour: When Love Strikes
Good news for the droves of people flocking to the county clerk to get married on Valentine’s Day! Since it’s on a Saturday this year, everyone was afraid they’d be closed. But fortunately they’ll be keeping their doors open, marrying folks from 9am-3pm in St. Valentine’s Chapel of Love, handing out commemorative Valentine’s Day marriage [...]
