Remember the Sumner County veterinarian whose fired employees had gone to the cops about crimes he had allegedly committed? Remember how a lot of the community came forth in support of Dr. Graham, especially in the comments section on the Tennessean article, angrily defending him and attacking the accusers? Yeah, well, that guy’s been charged with [...]

Did you know they hold actual competitions to see who the best grocery bagger in the state of Tennessee is? Well they do. And a Sumner County gal won! Woo-hoo! In your face, Williamson County… with your snooty, uppity baggers who aren’t as quick and efficient! Now, I’ve bagged groceries for a living before (briefly, and a [...]

When Mayor Scott Foster ran unopposed for a second term as mayor of Hendersonville, I doubt he expected to get every single vote. Surely there would be some write-in votes cast for various community members. But I somehow doubt he expected to lose votes to Mickey Mouse, Snoopy, Kerry Collins, Dave Ramsey, & Mike Ditka. A total [...]

Actual text of a Gallatin Craigslist ad: “traffic light this is a real working traffic light, sorry no pics but it is in excellent condition…” Um, you not allowed to just take those things. I think they’re important or something.
