And yep, that was exactly where all the insane homeless hung out because the mission was down there and the food bank.
When a Starbucks opened downtown a couple streets over just across from the courthouse, they used to come over and talk or beg all the time. Of course, encountering a mentally ill drug addict when you're in your 20s with a group of people is totally different from encountering one when you're all alone, 12, and totally need to pee.
That Starbucks is closed now. I guess the court crowd didn't go for them, and no one likes to go downtown at night there.
You know, it's funny. I never go to Davis Kidd here in Nashville. Maybe when Unemployment '09 ends, I should go.
And yeah, exactly, about Jackson. It gets larger, but it never grows.
