Nashville is bad anywhere around downtown for a few miles in every direction except West End/Broadway. Especially 'norf' Nashville including Bordeaux. Don't let the diversity-lovin' hippies in East Nashville fool you. It's as rough there as any other place if you turn the wrong corner.

  You just described my current pair of yard cutting shoes.

    The law requires you to carry liability insurance on all vehicles driven on public roadways. That's insurance that covers the other guy and his property. The law doesn't care what happens to you or your vehicle if you're at fault. That's your own business. It's actually one of the better laws out there in that it gives you personal freedom to have or not have insurance on yourself, but you're not going to screw/get screwed by someone else as long as everyone's following the law on this one. It's not uncommon for a policy on a relatively low-cost vehicle like many bikes and older cars to not have coverage for damage to that vehicle. You'd still have liability insurance and may have medical coverage for yourself though even without the physical damage coverage on your own vehicle.

Our local award winning distillery is Corsair distillery, also open for tours. http://www.corsairartisan.com/ If you're a beer guy, check out Yazoo Brewing Co. They have tours and tastings on Saturdays. http://www.yazoobrew.com/ Blackstone on West End close to Vandy is a brew-pub that makes their own beer on site. Bosco's is a regional brew-pub semi-chain (4 or 5 locations from  Little Rock to Nashville). It's a popular place for beer lovers too.

  Not really. It's dated. There are better choices. If you want a beer and bratwurst, The Pharmacy in East Nashville is better. the problem with East Nashville is that they have a serious infestation of hipsters. ;)     McCabe Pub is on Murphy Road, about 5 minutes from Vandy. Typical pub food. Decent burgers and club sandwiches so yeah, it's a good lunch spot. Fair prices. It's a neighborhood restaurant popular with the locals.

Here are some top picks in the Nashville dining scene. I've tried to group them more by price than by cuisine. I've avoided naming any regional or national chain restaurants. These are all local Nashville places.   $$$$ Reservations highly suggested for any of these Etch Kayne Prime <<best steakhouse in the city Husk  <<New place. The foodies are going crazy over this one. Germantown Cafe (ask for a seat by the windows for one of the best skyline views around) Capitol Grille at the Hermitage Hotel   $$$ Merchant's (downstairs) Tin Angel F. Scott's Mad Platter Midtown Cafe   $$ Jackson's The Pharmacy biergarten M.L. Rose (2 locations now) Batter'd & Fried Cafe Coco Coco's Italian Market Noshville Deli Mafiaoza's Pizza Broadway Brewhouse (5 locations around town) The Cottage Cafe (in Bellevue...If your wife's a girly-girl, this is a nice Saturday lunch spot to take her to.) Swanky's Taco Shop (sort of becoming a chain, but still small enough for my list) Puckett's (both downtown and in Franklin) 55 South (Franklin) Shalimar Indian Monell's <<Southern food, family style servings   $ Pizza Perfect Baja Burrito San Antonio Taco Company Varallo's Chili Parlor Arnold's I Dream of Weenie Merridee's (Franklin) Cuova Calypso Cafe  <<tasty Caribbean food     BBQ gets its own category 'cause it's awesome. There's no shortage of places to try around here. Edley's is popular, but I'm personally not crazy about it. 2 locations now. Slow & Low has some killer brisket. Good beans, but the greens are soupy. Judge Bean's in Brentwood is good. Stick to the beef brisket. Texans can't make good pork BBQ to save their lives. ;) Pegleg Porker is the newest place and is getting some great press. I haven't tried them yet. They're in The Gulch, so may be a great choice before a show at Station Inn. Jack's is good if you're downtown. Otherwise, there's better. Tex's off Murfreesboro Rd. has good brisket, smoked turkey, and sausage. Pork is better than at Judge Beans', but there's better elsewhere. He has good sides. Only open for lunch M-F. Bar-B-Cutie is decent. Certainly not the best but it does the trick if you're jonesin' for some que and it's close by. They have some of the cheapest prices around. Hog Heaven behind the McDonald's at Centennial Park. Grab your 'que and find a shade tree in the park (no handguns in Metro parks though).   Last category is hot chicken. It's one of Nashville's culinary landmarks. Prince's is kind of the standard, but it's in a really crappy part of town. Hattie B's Pepperfire 400 Degrees     Local Taco was mentioned above. The last time I stopped in there a few weeks ago, their health score was atrocious. For that reason, I can't recommend them right now.   You'll hear good things about Sunset Grill and Cabana. Both are Randy Rayburn's places and he's a big anti 2A guy. FYI. I've probably listed a few in here that are also owned by anti's, but not to my knowledge.     ETA: Calypso Cafe and Monell's

Dumb luck there tonight. Got there right as the guy was restocking. He said it would be gone in the next 30 minutes. 3 boxes of Federal 9mm for me. He was restocking 9, 40, and some Tula 223. They had enough .45 and .22 if anyone needs it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

You try to get people to say "Nationalsozialistiche Deutsche Arbeiterpartei"? No wonder they go silent.

I'm not ashamed to say that I put a wussy nancy pad on my 91/30.

  The one and only.   I suppose in retrospect the title should have told me it wasn't Buford. He'll probably get shot by a student instead of the other way around.

Some of the orb weavers eat their webs at the end of the hunt and recycle the silk proteins to make the next hunt's web. That's why the web goes away. Some do that daily, some it's every other day or so. I don't know if they all do that or not, but I know some do.

It's one way to add STAFF.  :D

  This.

I just knew this was going to be about Buford when I saw the title. Glad to know he showed up for post #8.     OS, that....is....AWESOME! I hadn't seen that one yet.

  We're still just talking about making lowers, right?     :D

I use the 7.5 field load bulk stuff from Wal-Mart in the 100-rd boxes. I can't tell a difference between the Federal and the Winchester. Both go bang and break clays. I've also used the AA's that Westwindmike mentioned. They worked fine too. I suppose if I was a better clay shooter I might notice the subtle differences, but as a casual hobby whatever's on sale does the trick.

  I would.             If I could figure out how to piss gasoline.

FIFY! :up:

Great video. I love the "Broadway" bit with the Guv.   http://www.tngunowners.com/forums/topic/65349-bad-lip-reading-twd/

I'm in. It'll go great with the TGO logo'd t-shirts, keyfobs, polo shirts, beer koozies, calendars, and gun safes that I sell on eBay.

We used to have Sabre....... :stir:

  Yes. With your county trustee/clerk. http://www.comptroller.tn.gov/pa/pdf/ElderlyDisabledBrochure.pdf     It also applies to certain disabled veterans. http://www.comptroller.tn.gov/pa/pdf/VeteransBrochure.pdf

Sounds like the side shows of our late 1800's. Same concept. Uneducated rural farmers + city slickers = con game.   I think it was the dog's idea. He wanted to stay off the fork. He'd have gotten away with it, if it weren't for those meddling villagers.
