Written on 2 killed, 2 wounded in pharmacy shooting; ex-Bean Station officer to be charged:

Why couldn't Mr. Holt have put the last bullet in the side of his own head. Looks like Satterfield's going to Grainger County.

Written on Court allows library card ID for voters for now:

How much would it cost to give Memphis to Arkansas?

Written on Grounds crew worker with Smokies chased by tarp during storm:

Thank you to the brave grounds crew at Smokies Park. What would have happened if the infield grass had gotten wet. Oh my, it might have grown a 1/4 inch and the world would stop.

Written on Court of secrecy: How Richard Baumgartner, a drug-addicted judge, stayed on the bench despite warnings:

Great job Ms. Satterfield. Thank you for your hard work.

Although, I can't help but wonder just how many more people knew what was going on with the Judge.

This same phenomenon seems to be playing out at Penn State. Everyone watching, but no one seeing.
Are there any federal charges that can be levied in the giant mess?

Written on Knoxville man arrested in Monday bank robbery :

Why do people rob banks in their own hometown? Mom always taught me “never ***t where you eat.”

Written on Knox Know-It-All: Headlights required for more than seeing in the dark:

"If the weather and visibility are bad enough, it doesn't hurt to flip on the emergency/hazard lights as well, even if stopped in "traffic on the roadway, he suggested."

If everyone turns on thier hazard lights doesn't it cause more confusion. One can't tell who is moving with traffic and those that are stopped or having an emergency.

Written on Whole Foods confirms Knoxville plans:

in response to max0032:

Wegman's is where it's at. I work in the northeast and have been to them a lot. Check them out.

Yup, Wegman's makes the Kroger in Farragut look like little country store. Folks actually meet at Wegman's for meals. I've never seen a better or bigger food court.

Written on Whole Foods confirms Knoxville plans:

Just give us a Costco. Please!

Written on Mother, son plead guilty to embezzling from church :

Bless their sweet souls. The Tennessee Department of Corrections has wonderful church services every Sunday at each of their facilities. Hopefully, the Whitt's can participate. Though, I'm not real sure Barbara could still make her weekly hair appointment.

Written on Morgan County Clerk pleads guilty :

Jeez Russell, if I forget to reimburse WalMart when I carry out stuff I didn't buy please drop the charges for me. I'm gonna say I was overwhelmed with all the pressure from my job and thought with my heart and not my brain.
How could someone "forget $7410."

Maybe Ms. Hamby could use her skills to make amends. I hear First Baptist Church of Morristown is looking for a new bookkeeper.

Written on Leslie Janous goods sought by feds :

What kind of mother(s) would do this to her/their child. This poor kid has to live with the embarrassment brought on from common low life thieves. Hopefully Brittany can learn from her parents how NOT to conduct her life.

Written on Lawyer to sell part of Houston farm for his fee :

How do these two support themselves? Some of us work for a living and don't have time to sue every elected official east of the Mississippi.

Written on Scott teen, found bound and tied to bed, allegedly staged home invasion:

Hey KNS, I think this is Scott County, Virginia.

Written on Life without parole: Jury rejects death penalty for Letalvis Cobbins:

What must a man do to get the death penalty in Tennessee? A premeditated carjacking leading to the rape, torture, and slaughter of two innocent people doesn’t warrant death?
Sure, Cobbins had a horrible childhood, but many others do too. I guess his treatment growing up makes him not fully responsible for his actions as an adult? If the jury wasn’t convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that he deserved death, how could they convict him in the first place?
Takisha Fitzgerald and Leland Price presented such a strong case that even I, a person not fully pro death penalty, would have gladly started the IV and pushed the drugs to end Cobbins’ life.
I wonder what Cobbins will do in prison? Surely, he’ll have nothing to lose during his incarceration. He committed an incredibly heinous act and just got life. What could he do worse?

Written on A new and design:

Love the new page. But, how about a link for news tips on the front page. You're losing tips to the TV channels. Good job on the new look.

Written on Local boy gets his wishes granted :

Okay, you made me cry.

Thank you for the wonderful story.

Written on Former OR laborer pleads guilty in nuclear parts theft:

When did Dennis Hastert move to Tennessee?

Written on Houston trial: Deputy died with empty pistol at his side:

What's up with all the Houston apologists. A deputy that was out doing his duty pulls off the road in front of a house and gets gunned down while still in his car. It was daylight. The car was marked. Part of the car was still on the public road. Some folks complain that cops aren't out patrolling, well this one was.

The Houston brothers were trouble long before they murdered two innocent people. They've sued half of East Tennessee and Rocky was a "former DOE guard" because he was unstable.

Too bad Rocky lived to see another day.

Written on Truck found; home-invasion, kidnapping suspect still on loose:

Does anyone know exactly where the truck was found?

Written on None:

Where does it end? Do we need to take the torch out of Lady Liberty's hand and replace it with an outstretched hand asking for more. Our country is turning into a land of beggars and thieves.
Our taxes go to support those too lazy or addicted to work. Those that add nothing positive to our society.
Yeah, I'm the rube who works and pays his taxes, volunteers in the community, and has a kid in Iraq.
What a fool I am.

Written on Program offers a medical 'home' :

"She's applied for government disability benefits and keeps busy by volunteering at Clayborn Temple A.M.E. Zion Church,"

She's 43, why doesn't she volunteer at a JOB instead of trying to stay busy at her church while trying to get her Social Security Disability. SSDI has become the new welfare. If you have a child under 18, they get a check too. Plus, she will eventually get Medicare if disabled.

Interfaith is for the working poor isn't it?

Written on Man takes lead in recruiting Costco:

Highway 70 @ I-75 in Lenoir City. Perfect place for a Costco.

Written on Flory: Who wants Costco?:

Lenoir City would be a great place for a Costco. Turkey Creek is becoming harder to access as time passes. Growth is still heading west and Costco seems to like being where the action is.
Also, Kirkland Signature products are always at the top of the Consumer Reports ratings.
Now, if we could only buy wine in a grocery store.
