Election Day is nearly upon us, just over a month away. That likely means that many of you have already made up your minds. Those of you who haven’t will probably be tuning into tonight’s first Presidential Debate–which is “back on”, for those of you who hadn’t heard. I’ve already made up my mind… mostly… but [...]

Dude, you cannot sell an entire town. This guy’s trying to sell Bethpage or Portland… or both. Have you even asked the citizens of Portland if they want to be sold? I doubt they do. They might, however, allow you to sell a certain school teacher from Portland. Not only is it not possible to sell an [...]

Just what’s going on behind closed doors at Portland High School? By now you’ve no doubt heard about Sandy Binkly, the Potland High School teacher of more than 10 years who was arrested yesterday for statutory rape. She is accused of having sex with a 17-year-old student sometime in March… DURING SCHOOL! Okay, first things first… you [...]

Here’s hoping this city wakes up and actually supports the thing by… you know… donating money and using the library.

Gallatin High School is most definitely on edge today. The entire city is, really. Rumors of a possible retaliation shooting to take place at today’s pep rally have forced the school to increase security and forced a lot of parents to keep their kids home today. I’m going to try very hard to steer clear of my [...]

So just about ten minutes ago I drove down Gallatin Road in Hendersonville and realized… “Hey, every station has gas now.” Dodge’s Store is selling regular unleaded for $3.58, and the Mapco across the street from them has it at $3.45. That was… fast. I mean, it happened in the blink of an eye. Earlier this evening, on [...]

Daniel H. Congratulations to Daniel! If you’re wondering what I’m talking about… well, then you should have come out to our Xbox 360 Madden ‘09 Tournament tent on Saturday at the Festival by the Lake in Hendersonville. We had two 360’s going all day long with some nail-biting Madden NFL Football action. But we also had t-shirts and [...]

The race for gas is on again, as the panicky idiots merge with the level-headed citizens (who by now actually have empty tanks) at the pumps. Here in Hendersonville, most stations are still without gas. There is an Exxon on 31E at Rockland Road that has lines And there’s a Shell station on Walton Ferry Road that [...]

Sumner Shortcuts sponsored its first real-world event this past weekend at Hendersonville’s Festival By The Lake in Drakes Creek Park. It was a Madden ‘09 Xbox 360 Tournament, and it was the bomb. Sorry to any of you who missed it. We had over 50 people participate throughout the day, capped off by our Champions Bracket [...]
