Re: “The Hippodrome: It's Designed To Break Your Heart”
Maybe it's because I grew up with County stadium, but to me Greer stadium is what baseball is SUPPOSED to be. Sticky floors, peanut shells everywhere, and the smell of stale beer, sweat and urine lurking in every corner.
Re: “The Weekly Open Thread Proposes a Moratorium on Reclaimed Barnwood”
@37210:
All my teasing about reclaimed barnwood aside, I'm a big fan of Barista. In fact, I just came from there. And actually, I think it's one of the more aesthetically pleasing coffee houses in town, and it's actually fairly clean and minimal to my eyes. Of course, it helps that I'm a huge fan of Bryce McCloud's prints.
Re: “The Hippodrome: It's Designed To Break Your Heart”
I will point out Greer has some things that Hawkins does not. Bathrooms, concessions, and locker rooms. Technically it doesn't even have its own ticket window either since even those are shared with the football stadium. Still, Hawkins is an improvement on the lightless and seatless field of not so long ago, even though it is still constructed of the same materials as a modern Clayton Home (aluminum, steel, and plastic). The construction material should work when they eventually decide to move to a full sized lot.

I think the Next Big Thing will be reclaimed formica, then reclaim Corian. Stock up now!
Re: “Will 'Struggle' Harness: The Cream Interview”
I was livin wit this man around the time him and wolf was recording, i didnt really know who wolf was at the time because there where alot of people that would come as family and leave as enemies but i can tell u and this is from livin on the streets with em and to livin in the same cell he never changed his attitude toward his career or toward his fans, cashing in, not the situation at all. Alot of these rappers get on the high horse and classify themselves in a higher bracket after there name blows up, strugg never once , and if you know him u would agree....free struggle......a-game

I hit up Humdingers last weekend, since it was one of the few places I could eat on my current diet. They gladly switched out the rice for another side, and the grilled sweet potatoes were huge and delicious. My rainbow trout was quite good, and my husband loved his amberjack. I couldn't try the piri-piri sauce, Ulika, because it had sugar in it unfortunately.

Tom sounds awesome!
Re: “Turns Out the Music City Center Will Not Create Jobs for Goats”
You are very right Jim Collins! Goats don't vote Republican! But thanks to the efforts of ACORN, several hundred of them did vote for Nobama!

Awww TL. You're so sweet!

Because of this person's lunacy, I have banned this website from my computer. I'd rather deal with Spam.
Re: “Turns Out the Music City Center Will Not Create Jobs for Goats”
Sedum and aloe are not in the same families. Sedum is in the Crassulaceae and aloe in the Xanthorrhoeaceae. Also, Aloe vera is a species, not a family.
Re: “Undulating form meets staggering scale in the Music City Center, Nashville's bold coming-out invitation to the world”
At what point in time does modern art cease to be modern? Caveman critics must have grunted, "Whoa, dude, this is edgy!" at some of the wall creations of the era, but now these same renderings are considered quaint. There must be a time constraint - has to be. Someday the MCC will be considered 21st century baroque.
Re: “Kane for Senate? Kane for Senate”
Yes, please. We need sensible elected officials, not fascist theocrats who are owned by greedy corporations.
Re: “Kane for Senate? Kane for Senate”
Does this mean I should go ahead and declare I'm running "for real" this time? For real for real. Printed on the ballot.
Re: “The Weekly Open Thread Proposes a Moratorium on Reclaimed Barnwood”
Reclaimed or horizontal wood or is the new wood paneling. Lesley is right, 10-20 years it will look very dated, it already does.
Re: “If you sense getting married is a bad idea, don't forever hold your peace — speak now”
I finished reading it and still fail to see the point. Airing one's dirty laundry in public seems to be another mistake the writer has made.
Re: “The Weekly Open Thread Proposes a Moratorium on Reclaimed Barnwood”
I'm going to build a barn out of reclaimed reclaimed barnwood.
Re: “The Weekly Open Thread Proposes a Moratorium on Reclaimed Barnwood”
I've been to Humdingers in Brentwood a couple of times and I am really loving the extra hot peri peri sauce on the chicken. Anyone else found something they like there?
Re: “Music That Stings”
It was so great being one of those kids in Dayton.
I miss Iodine.
