Zach Wamp Meets With East Tennessee Bloggers
Thanks to Ken’s efforts along with others at ConserVOLiance.com, a group of East Tennessee bloggers treated to a meeting with Tennessee Gubernatorial candidate Zach Wamp. To his credit, @zachwamp requested these meetups himself in a message to @bluecollarmuse on Twitter. I think this is important for two reasons. First of all, it says to me [...]
Party Registration in TN For Primaries?
I love watching Real World/Road Rules Challenges on MTV. The Gauntlet? The Inferno? Awesome. All that strategizing to pick off the other team’s weakest or strongest players, throwing challenges to get a teammate eliminated, scandalous hook-ups, stupid decisions fueled by an endless supply of alcohol. It’s just like politics. And you always have two groups [...]
Should Tennessee Take Bailout Money?
That’s what Blue Collar Muse is asking. Here’s my take.. If bailouts are bad, they are bad. If people think they are good, they are ok still bad. But here’s the thing….if Tennessee (or any other state) were to refuse the bailout money, does that mean those dollars wouldn’t be invested spent in another state? [...]

Tennessee Martin vs Tennessee (Tennessee)
I DVR’d the game so I could badoop badoop it and not have to spend a ton of time watching it. I feel a little bad for Lester Hudson. He’s obviously a great player–you can tell just by the way he moves. But the Vols pretty much shut him down until late in the second [...]

There aren’t many details yet, only that it was a “murder spree” that was to happen in Tennessee and was being hatched by a couple of neo-Nazi skinheads. H/T [...]
Tennessee Football–What I’d Do
Actually, it’s what I’d do in just about any situation. I’ll be the first to admit I don’t know much about football at all. I mean, I played for 10 years, but most of the teams I played on weren’t very good, so it’s safe to assume that most of what I learned was wrong [...]
Fire Fulmer! Redux
Here that? That’s the muffled sound of cars running in closed garages all over East Tennessee. There are big problems in the area. Well, big problems unless you advertise on sports radio here and want your ad heard in between the “Fire Fulmer” calls. It seems like I wrote this exact post exactly one year [...]
Community Standards
First of all, a few housekeeping items… Thanks to all of the new readers I’ve picked up in the past couple of days for subscribing. Nothing like a naked chick in a public park to boost readership, huh? And thanks to all of my readers who were with me long before this latest bit of [...]
Chemical Spill Shows Us the Sequatchie Valley
We didn’t pay much any attention to the news while visiting the midstate over the weekend, and were really surprised to find I-40 east closed from Cookville to Knoxville because of a chemical spill. There are a couple of ways to react to something like this. One is to kick yourself in the ass for [...]
