This. There's a currency exchange counter at the Nashville airport before the security checkpoints if you don't have a bank and don't want to wait until you get to wherever you're going. I'd assume they're more geared to exchanging incoming foreign guests' currency to US dollars, but they'll probably have a supply of the major foreign currencies.

I'm in on PC, but haven't had much time to play. :( So far I like it, but have to keep in mind it's Battlefield, so all the good and bad that go with that.   The Good: Graphics Vehicles Smooth gameplay Highly customizable weaponry Vehicles Huge maps (lots of options for attack/defense and sniping actually means shooting more than 100 yards like many COD maps) Good squad/teamplay capabilities when used properly Did I mention vehicles? Dedicated servers   The Bad: Huge maps mean spawn can sometimes be far from the action Takes too long to level up and unlock better weapons/attachments Hitboxes are small. Automatic fire is worthless (see above) Color patterns on players don't stand out from the background very well. Maybe that's more "realistic" but it usually means I get smoked and have no idea where it came from. <<<FRUSTRATING>>> I guess I'm just getting older and it's hard to pick out the fine details fast enough.     So far, it's a mix of BF3 and Bad Company 2 to me. It's defnitely not run-n-gun like COD. I have the most trouble with hit boxes being so small. I'll go prone, line up sights, and open up with an LMG in someone's back from 50 ft away. They can turn around and shoot me with a handgun and win. WTF?!?!? It's getting better with each release (BF2 was the worst), but I just need to spend time practicing BF's game play. I can drive a tank like nobody's business, but infantry is hard for me.   I'll probably jump in tonight for a while and see if I can be someone's bullet magnet.

  FIFY!

He's going to need a bigger stone to open that ammo tin.  :)

Yep. They really classed the place up a lot when they got rid of the used underwear swap bin out front.

Jamaicaway is the best around. The Cuova Calypso Cafe places are good too. They have a surprisingly good burger. For fast food Caribbean, there's a new place in Cool Springs called Pollo Tropical. It's across the street from the Dick's/Kroger shopping center. Same side of the road as Academy.

  Woah there.....who said anything about "tasteful"?         Mark my words.....Red Jacket vs. JJFU vs. Gunsmoke Guns in the Discovery Channel GREAT AMERICAN GUN BUILD-OFF!!!OMGWTFBBQTHISISGONNASUCKBIGDONKEYBALLS!!!!!!

Lowes and Home Depot do it the right way. You can do your BF shopping online on Thursday (maybe as early as Wednesday). They'll prep your order, then you just show up any time on Friday to pick it up.

Then in her golden years, you can just tell her you got cable for her and she's watching Animal Planet.  :)

That     Was     AWESOME!

I really liked the Basillica Cathedral of St. Louis, but I'm weird that way. It's as grand as any cathedral in Europe short of St. Peter's in Rome.

You'll probably get more by trying Craigslist or eBay before a dealer/jeweler. The later will have to pay you wholesale to make their profit. After that, the jewelers in Nashville I'd trust are Draper's on Granny White Pike and Walton's in Franklin. Both are local family owned operations as opposed to either the national jewelry chains or the pop-up Cash4Gold joints. Be sure to get offers from a few different places.

Maybe these guys are hiring: http://www.everydaynodaysoff.com/2011/11/01/tactical-bodyguard-services/

I hope he had bone cancer.

As stated above, Publix has it too. I know a couple of blocks of dry ice, a towel, and some regular ice on top will keep cold stuff cold for a whole weekend in nothing more than a standard 50qt. Coleman cooler. The regular ice stayed totally frozen for at least the first 48 hours.

  FIFY

My first thought was that they look like something an organ grinder monkey might wear. Not a fan.

Sky driving? Do you mean like this?

Ding! Ding! Ding!   We have a winner!

Welcome to TGO. Good advice upthread. I'd like to add something about being in your home vs. not in your home:   As I understand it, TN law allows use of deadly force when a reasonable person would fear they or others are in imminent danger of losing their life or sustaining serious bodily injury*. Location is irrelevant. This applies in your living room, your front lawn, or the produce section at Wal-Mart. If you're involved in a self-defense shooting, the question will be whether or not a reasonable person in the same situation would have that fear.   The burden of proof about whether or not that fear reasonably existed will change depending on location. If the encounter occurs in your home, you have a presumption of fear for your life. The prosecution would have to prove you were not in fear of your life or serious bodily injury rather than you proving that you were**. If you use deadly force while not in your home, the burden is on you to prove that at the time, you did indeed reasonably have that fear. That's what makes a home invasion different than being on the street or in your yard.   As dolomite said, TN law does NOT allow use of deadly force to protect property.     *serious bodily injury is defined in another section of TN law as: A substantial risk of death; Protracted unconsciousness; Extreme physical pain; Protracted or obvious disfigurement; Protracted loss or substantial impairment of a function of a bodily member, organ or mental faculty; or A broken bone of a child who is eight ( 8 ) years of age or less   **This doesn't make a home invasion into a license to kill. If the evidence shows you bound and executed the intruders, then the prosecution can use that to show that you did not have a reasonable fear for your life when you pulled the trigger because the perps were tied up and on their knees, for example.

Thanks. I was thinking it meant that 1313 didn't supercede those laws, which seemed stupid considering the whole point was to make postings not apply if it was kept in the car.   I'll try to lay off the stupid-pills.

OS, (or others) why would 1313 make it OK on university parking lots? 1313 starts with "Notwithstanding § 39-17-1309, § 39-17-1311, or § 39-17-1359". Doesn't 1309 make it a no-no? I thought that opening line meant that 1313 has no bearing on 1309, 1311, or 1359. Which doesn't really make sense to me since I thought the point of 1313 was to make 1359 not apply so long as it was kept in the car, out of sight, etc...   What am I not understanding about the "notwithstanding" line?

Not really a "ghost" story.   We were stationed at Kadena AFB, Okinawa when my mom was pregnant with my little brother. She was shopping at either the commissary or the B/X (can't recall) when she started hemorrhaging. Ambulance came and carted her off to the hospital. They got her checked in to a room and a little old Okinawan woman came in and cleaned her up. She layed her hand on my mom's abdomen and said "You baby be OK. Jesus tell me you baby be OK." Later a nurse came in and mom asked for the little old Okinawan lady because she wanted to thank her for being so gentle and kind. The nurse said there aren't any Okinawans at the hospital. Locals aren't hired to work at that facility.   That's the story my mom tells. She says my kid brother's guardian angel is a little old Okinawan woman.

  Interesting. I'd think it would. It's very much a building facility owned by the municipality and used for recreational purposes as decribed in (a ). As far as an HCP then being a way around it, you'd have to argue that LP Field fits under (b )(1 )(H ) as follows:   I don't think it would count as a "similar public place" because access is restricted unlike any of those other listed places.   [/armchair lawyer]   I'm curious to see what others think.       Pedantic point - it's city owned, not state owned.
