What the heck is up with this? Pay with a credit card at Dodge’s Store in Hendersonville, and you’ll be charged $0.02 more per gallon. I’m sure this is just a way for the gas station to cover a recent increase in the processing fees the credit card companies charge them. Sheesh, must every single added cost-of-doing-business [...]

Found this scary-looking insect dead outside my front door this morning and it freaked me out. What the heck is this thing? It has a strange set of ridges at its head, with a pointy beak/stinger/antenna thing for a nose–sorry if the picture doesn’t do it justice. I tried to use my key chain to [...]

This is the first installment in a new series of articles, People Who Drive Me Crazy. (I wanted to call it, “You Know Who I Hate?”, but was told that might be too harsh for some of my readers. So I softened it a bit.) This series of articles is a way for me to vent [...]

Gallatin PD is at it again, giving fair warning to law-breaking drunk drivers by notifying the public of another upcoming sobriety checkpoint. Seems the cops are planning to randomly stop vehicles and check for drunk drivers this weekend in the area of Hartsville Pike and Airport Road. This is the third time I have written about this [...]

Speeding is one of those crimes that everyone does… like jaywalking. So this news should be of interest to pretty much anyone: Hendersonville Police are going to crack down on speeding. I guess those roadside speedometers they’ve been placing all over town to remind you how fast you’re going aren’t doing the job. Seems they went and [...]

Sumner County Republicans have outdone their Democrat counterparts in the fundraising department this election cycle, beating them by nearly $12,000. That’s not terribly surprising. From what I understand, this has long been a Republican county. But are they able to raise so much more money because there are more Republicans than Democrats in Sumner County? Or [...]

Okay, well maybe not a cage match. But definitely a debate. All the candidates for the various open Hendersonville Alderman wards squared off last Friday in an open forum that probably next to no one attended. My spy was there, so I have the inside scoop (translation: I read this Tennessean article). Seems there were some [...]

Hendersonville had a little Hollywood-style SWAT action this weekend that most of you probably didn’t hear about. Seems a man with a pistol kicked in an apartment door at the Lakeshore Apartments around 5:30am. Thankfully, the Hendersonville police are quite good at their jobs despite not having to face regular hostage situations. Five hostages were released and [...]

Hey folks. Thought I’d share some exclusive photos of the new Hendersonville Library, located in Indian Lake Village. You won’t see these pictures anywhere else. I’ll write up my thoughts later, but you can rest assured that this new facility is amazing. For now… just sit back and enjoy a virtual tour via my fancy shmancy new [...]

In the continuing saga of the teacher-student sex scandal in Portland… two more students have come forward in the last several days to say that they also had sexual relations with former Portland High School teacher Sandy Binkley… and just like the first student, these encounters took place during school hours and on the school [...]
