Re: “Poetry in Motion: 'Imitating Flatters,' by Christine Hall”
I love this poem!
Re: “Robert Earl Keen parries Toby Keith and shows he's Ready for Confetti”
Toby Keith is a no-talent hack. People like mullets? I'm in! People like Dwight Yokham's hat? I'm getting one too! Tim McGraw wears all leather? Oh, so do I! Willie smokes weed? Me too (but I can't hang so I'll sing a song to that effect). People who listen to COUNTRY like Robert Earl Keene's songs? Ima copy him! TK's a joke.
Re: “Will Nashville Hit the Road?”
@Whiny war hero and Anglrdr: You're both too stupid to realize that she was responding to your insults. The way you both make up crap out of thin air you should be working for Obama at the White House or for Holder at Justice. Sleazy liars, both of you.
@Donna Locke: Don't listen to them sweetie, everybody likes you.
Re: “Will Nashville Hit the Road?”
Face it Donna, nobody likes you. Guess we are all phonies considering we chafe at your constant biographs that boggle the realm of reality. Look, you wanna get mean, wear a cup, cause you'll get it back in spades. You wanna call someone a stalker because they reply to your insults, go ahead, have a party. A party of ONE!
Re: “New Music City Mini-Doc Talks Nashville Rock 'n' Roll, Kings of Leon and Serpents and Snakes”
The kingston springs are going to hve to start paying ranch ghost royalties on copying their....everything, even that song in the video, rips a RG riff... if only those ranch boys had $, they'd be shinning. the music business...
Re: “If not for love and art, Ndume Olatushani would have died on death row”
A brilliantly scripted biography of tragic destiny, patience and fruition. Ms. Hutson is a masterful artist skillfully and delicately balancing facts and heart.
Re: “WSMV Exposes Metro's Makeshift Toxic Landfill (And a Scalp for Ken Jakes!)”
>>Climate change is already ruining everything.<<
You can thank China for anything remotely close to "climate change". I guess that late snowstorm in Denver was also global warming? (huge eye roll here)
Re: “Charter School Crowd and MNPS Do Different Math on Student Attrition”
Just losing the students isn't the only issue. The fact that schools like KIPP do NOT replace the students who leave with new students could allow them to manipulate the student body in a way that district schools, with students moving in and out throughout the year, could not. The question is whether the exodus of struggling students, not replaced, is what creates a high scoring, disciplined student body, and whether that is accomplished by charter schools pushing students out, rather than by them working wonders with a random assortment of kids.
Re: “Charter School Crowd and MNPS Do Different Math on Student Attrition”
And still, the question raised in the WSMV story remains...are the students moving or being moved out of the charter schools and back into the district schools right before TCAP testing and, if so, why?
Re: “WSMV Exposes Metro's Makeshift Toxic Landfill (And a Scalp for Ken Jakes!)”
@Kosh III: Blame the Aral Sea on big government because that's who interfered and caused it to dry up. Even so, if it didn't have an outlet it would have eventually became too salty to support life. You still wear shoes and clothes made by corporations. Watch TV at all? Listen to the radio? You can't get away from supporting corporations. Wear cotton? Then you support The Old South and slavery. (satire) Didn't bother to look at the link did you? Neither did that lying ass who commented at 2:27 PM.
Re: “Gladiator w/Take the Power Back and Cio Cio San and the Half-Japanese Girls Saturday at Exit/In”
If no half japanese cover band, then at least a half japanese karaoke night? please?
Re: “The Road, Episode 31: Midori Japanese & Korean Restaurant [Eating Our Way Down Nolensville Pike]”
Back in the day, when I worked in Antioch, this was our go-to lunch spot. Really great, hidden gem. Glad to hear the food is still good as ever.
Re: “Will Nashville Hit the Road?”
How could anyone possibly accuse donna of bigotry? She traded recipes with a hispanic woman one time. Actually had her in her house for tea. Fool proof indemnity.
Re: “The Treehouse Restaurant and Bar to Spring Up in Five Points”
Ha, I did some research and found this little gem of a legislative loophole:
"A special occasion license under this section may also be issued to a nonprofit historical society for the purpose of serving complimentary samples of homemade wine manufactured in the Swiss tradition by a society member or members, the complimentary samples not to exceed one ounce (1 oz.) per wine type per person to be served at an annual festival conducted by a society celebrating the Swiss heritage at a farm museum in any county having a population of not less than fourteen thousand three hundred (14,300) nor more than fourteen thousand four hundred (14,400), according to the 2000 federal census or any subsequent federal census."
Grundy County, home of Gruetli-Laager and the annual Swiss Heritage Festival had a population of 14,332 in 2000. Glad our legislature is working for the everyman...
Re: “My Maser Challenge to The Tennessean”
The main damage to his credibility is that the Tennessean printed it.
Re: “The Treehouse Restaurant and Bar to Spring Up in Five Points”
I thought you had to have 75 seats to get a liquor license in the state of TN? Not that the application of liquor laws has ever been something I completely understand. I know there's supposedly some other "gourmet restaurant" designation and a wine-only option. Any restaurateur Bitesters have any insight on that one?
Re: “Will Nashville Hit the Road?”
Cite. Be specific now.
Re: “Will Nashville Hit the Road?”
AnglRdr is the wind beneath my wings. "...Did you ever know that you're my hero?"
Re: “Will Nashville Hit the Road?”
Yes, there is, Donna, which is why your naked bigotry always comes as such a shock. Most reconstructed racists know to keep their bigotry on the downlow, but you? You're just loud and proud with it.
Re: “Will Nashville Hit the Road?”
I just want to plug checking the "subscribe to this thread" box. That is how I learned that "honestjohn" is really also xray.
Sock puppetry--it's fun!
