Via WKRN & The Tennessean, Nashville Firefighter Tim Lankford has been pulled from the field and placed on administrative duty, reports Deputy Chief Steve Holt.

Rachel Tumerman Gives East Nashville a MUCH Needed Public Art 101 Lesson
Rachel Tumerman, family of mural artist Leah Tumerman, Posted a very much needed Art 101, in response to the vandalism at the in-progress mural in East Nashville at Five Points. From her Facebook post: Nashville, hidden underneath my current anger is a deep sadness and disappointment in you.

I feel it necessary to give a 101 on…

Did You Poop in Alyce’s Yard?
Alyce Simmons would prefer that there was no poop in her yard. Of course, she is making the assumption that East Nashville has no free-roaming dogs, and that someone is walking their pooch through her garden and yard perhaps? Maybe the dog got loose and pooped on it’s mad dash through the neighborhood? Perhaps, a neighbor has been secretly fertilizing her garden with his dog poop for years, and that’s why her gardens and flowers are flourishing? Or maybe she’s just got a bad neighbor? Either way, Alyce has a…
To Do: Get A MILF (Drunk!)

In fact you are so intrigued that you notice a hand written piece of paper in his back pocket that intrigues you. This happened to Sara Olivia Moore. She was keen enough to zoom in so we could see the what the pocket list contained – and it appears to possibly be a list of To Do’s for a bachelor party? Sara described him as an “out of…
