Weighing the pros & cons
Written by hootenannie on May 21st, 2008Nashville: The GOOD
• Rosepepper Cantina and their delish margaritas
• The full-scale replica of the Parthenon (we are the Athens of the South)
• Gentlemen who hold the door
Nashville: The BAD
• Too many guys in stove-pipe jeans and vests and weird almost-rat-tail hair
• The Tennessee GOP’s video attacking Michelle Obama
• Seen on a church billboard: “God answers knee-mail”

1) “knee-mail”? That doesn’t make any sense to me at all?
2) Rose Pepper Cantina makes a strong case for Nashville, I must concur. Neeeeeed chips and salsaaaaa.

Pros:
Alley Cat’s Fried Avocado
Friends who sit with you on porches
You can buy a new wig and get shiny rims in the same parking lot (but only in E. Nash)
Cons:
Humidity in the summer
Not enough ethnic restaurants
Racism is alive and well

you’re on – we will go very soon. And they have decent margaritas. It will be our be our new happy place.
And summer? We will have crappy hair but GREAT supple skin. It’s all about the silver lining.

FYI: Nashville was noted as one of the cool places for music in the current issue of Nylon.
I think that might be a big “PRO” there for ya!
