TN is NUMBER ONE...in meth lab busts and seizures...
Data from state officials shows Tennessee has knocked Missouri out of the lead for meth lab busts and seizures for the first time since 2003.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says the state had 1,960 meth lab incidents in 2010. That's a 10 percent increase over the previous year.

But Tennessee Methamphetamine Task Force director Tom Farmer said Tuesday that his state had 2,082 incidents, up 41 percent from a year ago.

TN is ranked third in obesity.

Geez, how great for my state. :sarcasm:

I'm actually pretty damn sad about all this.
