What OS said. A public recreation area is under the same law as parks and playgrounds.   It's probably just an old sign that no longer applies. However, knowing the stances exclaimed by certain city leaders in both Memphis and Nashville following the recent legislation, it wouldn't surprise me if someoned decides put up new signs like that to intentionally obfuscate what is and isn't an allowed area now as most citizens don't have 39-17-1311 memorized.

Or you could use the poor man's scanner. Take a picture of the picture with your phone.

  I'm guessing the compass was set to due North on more than one occasion.  :)

  Nope. Too expensive and the gear needed to maintain them is probably all gone too, along with much of the knowledge, I'm sure.

Probably just typical sloppy WSMV reporting.

My dad is a retired chaplain. When we were at Kadena he was assigned to a refueling squadron so he got to go up with them on lots of missions, including refueling the Habu. He said they'd go up a few hours before the SR-71 would launch and go into a circling pattern. After it got up, it would be on their position in a few minutes. They'd go as fast as they could go and the SR would go about as slow as it could go. After gassing up, it would throttle up and be gone in a flash. He said watching it in flight out those back windows was incredible.

Here's one of my favorite SR-71 stories from Brian Shul: http://oppositelock.kinja.com/favorite-sr-71-story-1079127041

  I was there from 1st through 3rd grade and I can still remember that roar. Night flights were especially cool watching those afterburners go from two bright flames to one, to none, but you could still hear it. It was a semi-regular occurrence to see one launch, but it still had people standing in their front yards watching it. We had an F-15 pilot next door and even he would stand out and watch it. One of the most unique school field trips was a visit in 3rd grade to the hangar and operations center. We got to try on the space helmets and eat peaches from a tube, then we got to go out to the hangar and see the Habu up close. Amazing.

  No, she'll never ask that question. It will be because the boy "fell in with the wrong crowd" or "the schools didn't do their job." It would never be her fault.

Regions has one of those too.   For all their faults like bad rates and anti-gun policies at corporate, none of the Bank of America branches are posted.

From reading some other threads on here, I expected it to be the Memphis or Nashville zoo....                 :hiding:

  It's actually called netiquette.   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etiquette_in_technology

  Yeah, OS was using sarcasm, thus the :bs: smilie. Banks are good to go unless they're posted.

  My wife's a teacher. The best Hitler overdub is hands down the Principal Hitler and the bad test scores.   Couldn't find the right one on YouTube, but here;s the FB link: https://www.facebook.com/howard.clink/videos/3895393026285/?pnref=story

Yep. Wronger than a wrong thing that is mistaken.

They're some of the safest cars on the road. It's what one of the heads of the IIHS drives.

I know that Goodwill will supply donated cars that function to people who need them to get to work and such. Since yours is busted, either scrap it or like Mrs. monkeyman said, try Craigslist. More hassle, but maybe more money.

I did many years ago. It's easier to call a scrap yard and have them haul it off, then give the proceeds to a charity of your choice as a cash donation. Get an estimated price from several different scrap yards.   Here's the full IRS publication: http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-tege/pub4303.pdf   And here's the Cliff's Notes version: https://www.charitywatch.org/charitywatch-articles/tips-for-donating-a-car-to-charity/42

Mate that up with this and you've got one of the lowest cost ARs around. http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/catalog/product/view/id/15199/

Goodletsville Gun Shop or Belshire Hardware. Belshires's a bit cheaper, but he works when he wants to.

  I like my solution to that problem. I grow my own. Then I don't have to deal with hipsters or anyone else. It doesn't take much space. A few sq. ft of dirt will yield an incredible amount of produce when done properly. Of course that's a seasonal solution, but so is a farmers market. Almost anyone selling tomatoes in Nashville in February is importing them from an industrial farm, even if it is an organic industrial farm.

  There are some scattered around the city on different days.  Here are the ones I know of. I suspect there may be more. Perhaps one in Antioch, Hendersonville, Mt. Juliet, etc. Plus the pickups parked on the sides of the roads, but they're not usually producers. Most are reselling stuff they got wholesale. There used to be a stand out on Hester Beasly Rd on the outer reaches of Bellevue that was run on the honor system. Not sure if it's still there or not. There's a place setup on White Bridge Rd. across from Target. Right now it's all just flowers, but they'll be getting produce in soon. I don't think they're producers, but I'm not sure. I do know they deal in organic and heirloom fruits and veg. They had some delicious Black Diamond watermelons last year.   There are also a variety of CSAs in the area. http://nashvillelifestyles.com/restaurants/a-guide-to-nashvilles-csa-programs   Tuesday: 12 South Farmers Market http://www.12southfarmersmarket.com/ 3000 Granny White Pike Nashville, TN 37212 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. Seasonal: May through October   Wednesday: East Nashville Farmers Market http://eastnashvillemarket.com/ Shelby Park at 1500 Davidson St., Nashville, TN 37206 3:30-6:30pm Seasonal: May through October   Friday: Donelson Farmers Market http://www.hipdonelson.org/farmers-market/ 2730 Lebanon Road at the Ace Hardware Complex108 Donelson Pike 4-7pm Seasonal: May through October   Bellevue Farmers Market http://thebellevuefarmersmarket.com/ Bellevue United Methodist Church @ 7501 Old Harding Pike 5-7:30 Seasonal: May through October   Saturday: Franklin Farmers Market http://franklinfarmersmarket.com/ @ The Factory on Liberty Pike, Franklin 8am-1pm Open every Saturday, Year Round   West End Farmers Market https://www.facebook.com/westendfarmersmkt?fref=ts 4101 Harding Road, at the Vine Street Church 9 a.m. to 12 noon, Saturdays from May through December

They're in the transition phase. They've kicked out the guys selling 100 packs of tube socks and airbrushed Obama T-shirts, but have not yet replaced them with the local producers. I don't see it working out well for them. I don't think there are enough local producers who would be willing to haul their stuff downtown, pay rent, and still be able to make a buck. Winter months will be particularly challenging to keep the stalls filled with local producers. We'll see, but I expect to be able to buy a Tupac wall hanging again in about 24 months.
