Egg fight!
Re: “Husk Nashville Opens Tonight”
As I understand it, Husk only uses ingredients grown or raised in the Southeast.
If they serve coffee (which they may not) I wonder where in the Southeast its grown.
Re: “Stephen Fincher Loves Government Handouts, Just Not for the Poor”
Quoting passages from the bible is irrelevant as an argument related to government programs.
Christianity is about individuals VOLUNTARILY choosing to follow the teachings of Jesus. It isn't about advocating using government force to make everyone else do so.
Jesus didn't march around at the head of a Roman legion extracting alms for the poor from everyone he ran across who he thought could afford it.

Here's the money quote: "I’m Chucky. I’m a different person."
That you are, Chucky.
Re: “My Maser Challenge to The Tennessean”
I just posted a long comment on Chuck Mangino's YouTube video in question. First of all, it's Chuck Mangino, not Chuck Mangione the trumpet player. For Ms. Phillips, I agree with you about the sarcastic tone the Tennessean used and address it in my comments on YouTube. But, the science is sound. When you run an empty microwave oven, what get's hot? Nothing. When you microwave water, what happens? It gets hot. The microwaves will stop when they hit something. Water droplets are formed around small particles of dust or some other matter. In the beginning of the formation of a funnel cloud, debris is sucked up into the air, which will also stop the microwave and cause heat. The idea is not to point the MASER in front of the tornado into thin air, but "at" it as it begins to form. Other ideas people have postulated, such as detonating bombs between hot and cold fronts would certainly heat the air and disrupt the pattern. My brother's (Yes, my brother) idea is to heat the clouds/debris and not heat the space in front of it. Incidentally, my brother has several other ideas using microwaves, such as using them to kill large colonies of red ants that have become a problem in the southern part of the country, but that's another story.
Read my posts on YouTube under Chuck's video for more information.

Bar opens at 4. So can you have a drink and order a first (app) at the bar?
Re: “Quote of the Day: Emily Evans on the Music City Center”
What in heck does this writer think Emily or any other opponent would say 585 million+ dollars after the project is already completed. We are all now wishing it's a great success, far better than stating "I hope it fails" or waiting for an "I told you so". It is certainly far too early in the MCC History to be criticizing those who originally opposed this project.
Place this on your calendar for May 2018 for update.
Re: “The Duke's Table: Eat Like Vegetarian Italian Royalty”
No. No, no, no. Organic eggs from healthy chickens on GMO-free feed have shown in many studies to prevent heart disease. They contain healthful amounts of protein, vitamin B, omega-3 fatty acids, and many nutrients like lutein and zeaxanthin.
Re: “Will Nashville Hit the Road?”
Angl, I think Donna is talking about Kid Rock and Hootie. Hootie remakes a classic Old Crow song and does a bad job of it and it's a hit for people who don't know who Old Crow is.
Though the video is way cool

Re: “My Maser Challenge to The Tennessean”
I guess he gave up music after his one hit, "Feels So Good", way back in the 70s.
I would like to see him playing ping-pong with his cat, though.
Re: “My Maser Challenge to The Tennessean”
Taking the Tennessean seriously - as an outlet for news - is Ms. Phillips' main problem.
If you read it with the same attention and seriousness you give to chewing gum, watching a baseball game in person, or driving through a tunnel, you will be able to see the Tennessean in the correct light.
Re: “Whiskey Wednesday: Angel's Envy Rye — In a Word ... Wow!”
John Galt - I would love to know where you tried being as it isn't even available ANYWHERE in Tennessee yet. Kinda sounds like a grumpy comment from someone who can't even truly attest to the taste.......... - I was lucky enough to be sent a sample bottle and I have to agree with Chris - This stuff is absolutely ridiculously good!! It is only going to be available in very very limited quantities so grab a bottle if you see one.
Re: “My Maser Challenge to The Tennessean”
I assume I'm just missing the tone of sarcasm in "Angry White Patriot's" post, right?
Re: “My Maser Challenge to The Tennessean”
Of course we can stop tornadoes if we wanted to! Betsy is criticizing others for not using google when she herself could find all kind of information about the government controlling the weather! It's all on the internet! Nobama is responsible for this tornado! You Obamabots cannot seriously find it coincidental that every time he gets into hot water, a "natural" disaster happens?!? Then some RINO like Chris Christie comes and helps him out further, which is further infuriating! It's outrageous! But I've created a zip file of all the information on the internet regarding this and forwarded it to every Republican in congress! I believe that they will soon start some hearings on this!
Re: “Racist Who Attended Racist Conference in Tennessee Still Being Racist Back at School”
Not differentiating between white and black seems like a great idea to me. Why don't we adopt this thinking in the workplace and college admissions? No more affirmative action.
Re: “My Maser Challenge to The Tennessean”
The Tennessean, like many rags, has become all about circulation and not factual reporting. This puts them dangerously close to the tabloids in terms of credibility.
Re: “WSMV Exposes Metro's Makeshift Toxic Landfill (And a Scalp for Ken Jakes!)”
xray
Exactly the reason that I have a nice organic garden, otherwise buy locally grown and/or organic foods, buy from mom-n-pop locals if possible, drink Fair Trade coffee, bank with a credit union and, of course, hug trees.
Climate change is already ruining everything. Look at the Aral Sea. Wait! You can't because it's gone--mostly due to human wrong doing.
Re: “My Maser Challenge to The Tennessean”
Has he tried an experiment with the red ants?
