Happy Hour: Keep On Truckin’
We got our state report card today and there is some good news: Our high school graduation rate has gone up! The bad news is that our kids still can’t read good. [Tennessean]
Some former Six Flags execs have purchased Nashville Shores, but don’t get your hopes up because they already said they’re not building us [...]
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 [...]
Happy Hour: In Which We Watch The Ravens Crash & Burn
The City Paper gives us a few hints about what we should watch out for in tomorrow’s showdown. [City Paper]

The TVA spill we’ve been keeping an eye on all day was actually not the second one, but the third. And they’re [...]
Happy Hour: Beauty Is Pain
The city’s attempts to, uh, beautify Main Street in East Nashville (good luck with that!) might actually just be causing a bunch of traffic accidents. [WSMV]
Some parts of Tennessee got as many as 6 inches of rain yesterday! Tonight, we might be getting some snow. [WTVF]

Happy Hour: Four Score and Seven Years Ago…

If you never did the TVA’s free home energy audit, you’re in luck! They’ve extended the program for another year because they really, really, really want you [...]
Bright & Early: Did You Hear Belmont’s Hosting A Debate Edition
Good morning, Nashville. We’re 19 days (and 11 hours and 27 minutes according to the website…) out from the Belmont debate, and this week seems to be the start of that crucial period of time where we probably won’t stop hearing about it in the news. Don’t get us wrong–we’re totally proud of our alma [...]
Happy Hour: Bad Analogies Edition
City Paper sounds off on Germantown: “No doubt, the profile of this historic North Nashville neighborhood has recently been elevated as dramatically as the John McCain presidency after his Sarah Palin pick.” [City Paper]
TSU found that flash drive they lost! In… Memphis? But what can you do? Those things practically have legs. [Tennessean]
The Williamson County [...]
Bright & Early: We Woke Up And It Was Fall Edition
Good morning, Nashville. You might have noticed that it’s a little chilly outside this morning, and we couldn’t be happier to tell you that it’s going to be like this all week. Don’t hang up the flip flops just yet, though, since it’s supposed to be back into the 80s next week. Either way, we’re [...]
