Bright & Early: Snip Snap Edition
Good morning, Nashville. Neighborhood health clinics are the latest item on the chopping block for Tennessee’s round of budget cuts. Each year, 23 neighborhood health clinics around the state provide health care for uninsured Tennesseans–a number that’s growing by the day thanks to our 10.5% unemployment rate. Like every other department in the State of [...]

Bright & Early: Everybody Hates Taxes Edition
Good morning, Nashville. As much as we love our Preds, we can’t help but get a little bit bummed out when we hear that they could owe us as much as $400,000 in ticket taxes they, um, forgot to pay. Both city and team officials are still working on sorting out the mess, but it [...]
Photo Of The Day: March 12, 2009
Now, this is what we like to see! New contributor que.sera caught this series of action shots during that epic 8-0 massacre against our arch-nemesis, the Detroit Red Wings.

Bright & Early: Fat Camp Edition
Good morning, Nashville. Putting nutritional info on the menus may not just be a city-wide issue anymore. Governor Phil is making a case for a bill that would spread the love all across the state of Tennessee. As we’ve previously pointed out, we are a bunch of fatties here in ye olde Volunteer state. Actually, [...]
Bright & Early: Hat Tricks & Drunk Birds Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We’re pretty sure we could hear the Preds fans screaming all over city on Saturday after the epic 8-0 win over the Detroit Red Wings. It was a night of firsts for our Preds: First win by 8 goals, first time they’ve scored 5 goals in the first period (including the first [...]
Bright & Early: Back To Square One
Good morning, Nashville. We hate to keep harping on the Kingston ash spill, but the more we read about it, the more it blows our minds. While testifying before an environmental committee at the state legislature yesterday, TVA prez Tom Kilgore reiterated that the billion-gallon spill covered nearly 300 acres of land and was probably [...]
