How can you tell if someone is a vegan?
Just wait a second or two. They’ll tell you.
Now is the time of year when people like myself fill up their newspaper and magazine and blog column spaces with reflections and predictions. We do it as a public service. I kid. We do it because it fills space during a time of year when we’d rather be at the mall shopping. Again, I kid.
I’ve spent the last year watching the city continue to grow, in particular the entertainment landscape. It’s pretty amazing what has happened and is happening. My daughter, who has lived in Knoxville for the last three and a half years while at school, said something that crystallized just how far we’ve come – and not necessarily in a good way. Or maybe it is.
She was telling me about a conversation she had had with some people she knows in Knoxville. It seems some Chattanoogans think we have it better than people in some other cities. Like we talk about it all the time. I guess that’s true, but I’d never thought about it before.
