		<title>To 21st Century Shoot Outs</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As this guns in bars business seems to be the hottest topic on my political radar short of some silly email circulating from a Diane Black staffer, I’ll throw originality to the wind and offer my little rant on this subject we can’t seem to get enough of.  
This morning I sat with the Tennessean, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thenashvilleminx.wordpress.com&blog=4889312&post=386&subd=thenashvilleminx&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>12 years is a long time in a filthy labor camp</title>
		<description><![CDATA[News broke this Monday that two American journalists, Laura Ling and Euna Lee, have been sentenced to “12 years of reform through hard labor.”  The pair stood trial last week in North Korean Central Court after being arrested for “illegal border crossing and hostile acts” while covering defectors along the N Korea/China border.
Though this sentence [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thenashvilleminx.wordpress.com&blog=4889312&post=383&subd=thenashvilleminx&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>A Ponzi scheme to call our own</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Thanks to tax payer protector and crusader of bailout transparency, Inspector General Neil Barofsky, under the guide of the ever-noble Obama administration, Tennessee is in the headlines as the home to the first exposed government bailout related criminal case.  Franklin’s very own, Gordon Grigg, was accused by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Nashville on Wednesday [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thenashvilleminx.wordpress.com&blog=4889312&post=377&subd=thenashvilleminx&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Cuba, the Commie Cure to our Economic Woes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Last week, President Barack Obama took a stride towards a kinder, more gentle nation by easing restrictions regarding travel to and money sent to the little commie-island of Cuba. But don’t pack your bags for a Cuban vacation yet my WASPy little friends; at current the eased restrictions for travel to Cuba only applies to [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thenashvilleminx.wordpress.com&blog=4889312&post=373&subd=thenashvilleminx&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Mule Daze</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
If it’s safe to say that any good morning starts with a mimosa, then I was secured success at 9:30 am last Saturday.  On a perfect spring morning I made my way south towards Columbia, TN, for Mule Day, arriving just before the roads closed for the Mule Day Parade, the peak of the four [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thenashvilleminx.wordpress.com&blog=4889312&post=365&subd=thenashvilleminx&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Bucking the Blame</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
All across America and the world, on every news station, on every front page are three letters: AIG. The resonance of these three letters has been burned into my brain with a fervor that I can no longer ignore.  We all remember the massive federal bailouts of banking institutions this past fall.  Well one of [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thenashvilleminx.wordpress.com&blog=4889312&post=361&subd=thenashvilleminx&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>A Global Solution</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It was poetry yesterday on the House floor as British Prime Minister Gordon Brown addressed a joint-session congress on the state of the world economy.  I had no idea what eloquence and emotion this man could yield—and no, it’s not just the accent. Perhaps his grace should be attributed to the brilliance of his speech [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thenashvilleminx.wordpress.com&blog=4889312&post=355&subd=thenashvilleminx&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Foreigner!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Reading the paper this morning I came across a ludacris little article about four Tennessee State Representatives who are chasing a helpless conspiracy theory that I can only assume they hope will remove President Barack Obama from political office.  Representatives Eric Swafford (R- Pikeville), Stacey Campfield (R- Knoxville), Glen Casada (R- College Grove) and Frank Nicely (R- [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thenashvilleminx.wordpress.com&blog=4889312&post=351&subd=thenashvilleminx&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>The Cat&#8217;s last meow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just learned that beloved east-side institution, the Alley Cat Lounge, is CLOSED. BOO.  The Alley Cat opened in 2003, one of the first casual-dining and drinking establishments east-side of the Cumberland.  Always good for a tasty salad and a shot, the Alley Cat will be missed.  Thanks recession.

		<title>Heads Roll at the Tennessee House</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My gross delay in blogging was set to remedy today in my idea to write a little piece on tomorrow&#8217;s special election for English Only.  Though English Only is a massive and pressing issue that could potentially effect the people, government and outside perception of our fine city in a very big and bad way, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=thenashvilleminx.wordpress.com&blog=4889312&post=291&subd=thenashvilleminx&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
