This song has come up in conversation a couple times in the past week or so, and it’s one of my all time favorites, so I thought I’d point a link. Plus I’ve seen a few people do something about “Feel Good Fridays”, but I figure the closest I can get is “Feel Dark, Reflective, [...]
The Nashvillest has the latest scoop on the fairgrounds redevelopment issue. Particularly they point us to the marketing research group contracted to study the issue.
Final tally on the 6th ballot, Barr 324, Ruwart 276. Just to rub it in, pro-war neocon Wayne Allyn Root got veep.

You won’t be, after this week’s episode of … Soap!
Ha. I don’t have much to say, I just really love that line, maybe one of the best tag lines in television history.
Anyway I just got through watching Season One. I have faint memories of it coming on when I was a kid, though I [...]

I’ve been meaning to post about this, so before I forget again —
