No. Born and raised here. This is my state to mold as I choose. The worst is seeing transplants running my state.

anyone know what is going to happen to the vacated Michells Deli spot?

Is that what those little log cabins are from, next to the bank? I ate at Steak & Pizza tonight, amaizng Gyro, go try it. I drove down the Eastern part of Sharpe Ave, I almost bought a house ther just over a year ago, and there are three new houses down there that weren't there ~6 months ago. Crazy.

The older I get, the madder I get. Is this the trend? Is there no one who will step up and challenge him?

How many state roads run through his district? Lets defund them.

Who is WW? Willard White? Went to the Five Points Mexi place this afternoon. Very underwhelmed. Same menu you'll find anywhere in the city besides a few upscale/lo fi places. Margarita was exactly the same as every other place. The only thing that did stand out food wise was the tortilla shells we got with the fajitas, very thick and possibly hand made? Don't get me wrong, the food was good but nothing you can't find anywhere else in the city. Interior vibe was pretty nice. Bar area and specifically the bar was to small and they had too much stuff on the bar taking up space. Not a place I'd consider going to to grab just a drink. The patio area looked like it would be nice but it is too small. I was really hoping for a mashup between Mas Tacos and Rosepepper.

True but Prince's isn't very fast, no matter what time you're trying to dine and it's all the way at the northwest corner of East Nashville and not near any of the major watering holes, unfortunately.

Barista Parlor, while expensive, is damn good. And yes it tries way too hard to be......I hate this word......hipster. Every time I drive by I look for it but can never clearly see an indicator that there is a mexican restaurant around. I googled it though and it's right where I thought it was, lol. Hopefully they get their back deck approved because what's a mexican place without a deck? I doubt they'll be able to beat Rosepepper's house margarita, if you haven't tried it go right now, but they won't have a hard time beating Rosepepper's food.

Will we ever get a 24hr (or atleast latenight 7 days a week) eatery in East Nashville? Will the diner next to Bongo Java ever get rehabbed? Does the same family still own it? That was the rumor I read? heard? imaged?

I have an in with a high ranking transit employee in Memphis and he says that our real time GPS bus app was in the works the same time as theirs but the flood stopped our work. Early fall of last year he said we were a year away from getting ours. Hopefully that comes true sooner rather than later. I live off of the 26 and 56 bus lines and enjoy taking them when I go to Preds games, concerts, or drinking. Unfortunately I can't take them to work as it would be an hour and a half+ walk, ride, and transfer time. I do understand the shortcomings of the AMP but we really need this to get in place, yesterday. If we let the West Enders and Shelbyvillers of the world have their way we will never get a real mass transit system in place. I like how their plan B only showed up after the AMP. If the AMP hadn't been 'threatening' them you think they would've wanted to changd, add really, a thing? Of course not. I'm sure they would help defund and dismantle the whole thing themselves if they could. I drove to Franklin on Friday about 1PMish and stopped at SatCo on the way down. I haven't driven the West End/Green Hills route in a long time and I really forgot how bad it was. I don't understand how people live like that. I'll echo the sentiment of another poster - let's shove AMP down West End's throat and watch them squirm. Uber is a GREAT service, I love using it as opposed to cabs. If I called a cab to come out to my house in Inglewood it would take them 30 minutes to not show, then I would have to call them again and then, maybe, they would show up after another 30 minutes. Uber will get to my house in less than 20 and the app is highly accurate with arrival times. I have my share of minor complaints but they are dwarfed by my complaints against the cabbies. I really hope that no legislation is put into place to limit the rideshare services we just got.
