"Wrote it, speaking of Chattanooga because Dalton Roberts was a Chattanooga who start to finish, sadly died about 8 9 years ago now. He was about 85, but he was just terrific. And he was a writer. Not only a songwriter, but other things as well. And he would, you know, he was a commentator too. Oh man, don't get him started on erlang or hospital. But he was just a terrific guy, and that was one of the things that he wrote. I also, while I was at this, looked up, I want to see the Chattanooga choo choo, like I say, it is still there, but when we live there, it was basically closed. It opened originally in 72 and I remember the so well because it was a Hilton franchise. Choo choo Hilton. And it was that for a while and then by before 1990, I think it went in a bankruptcy. I don't know who owned a time then, but whatever the deal was, it just was the end of it. It came back. And sort of. And the deal deal with that was after the bankruptcy and stuff, it came back. But now it is, again, has new ownership and not only new ownership, but also they've revamped a lot of it. And I think they started working on that a few years ago. A lot of the original rooms and stuff like that are now condos. The facility is more than just the hotel. And there's retail and restaurants and all those kind of things. And music venues. But they still have still have the hotel. And from what I understand, it was the final piece of redevelopment, and they've done that. And that it's supposed to be just great. I don't know. So I hope Eduardo will in fact stop there. So he'll enjoy the incredible broadband. All right, so not cheap, but anymore, probably not that pricey either when you compare it to everything else. 888-876-5593 is 88, 88 Raleigh, and let's see here. Elizabeth is a rockfalls and I have her on my list here for a request. What are we playing for Elizabeth tonight? I knew we were playing something because it was here. A minute ago, oh well. Well, she'll tell us. All right, so Elizabeth and rockfall is welcome back to WGN radio. So what was it we were playing for you? Forget. I don't have a request. Oh, well, I guess it was on a list somewhere. All right, well, very good. But all right, but have you got news? Well, the Don cherry deal. Remember me talking. Do I ever? Yes, yes, I do. I will forever wonder how the heck someone got him to a high school dance. I know. Now, I know. I talked to a classmate tonight who just got back from Florida. Yeah. He said, oh, it was the mayor because the mayor's daughter was in our class. And he had lots of, he went to Las Vegas a lot. And he said, he had connections in the entertainment world. So I think that the problem. Oh, wow. Okay, well, that's not nearly as fun as story as I was hoping for, but it's still a good answer. So yeah, I like that. I'll take it. And so we now know. Now, so how's mister chubbs? How many pounds? Well, it was last week he got weighed at the vet. Oh, so we don't write three pounds then, so we don't know you're not weighing him every day at home. No, no. But I wanted to tell you one more thing about the other story. Somebody threw another angle at me when I was talking to classmates and she said, oh, I thought it was Nick noble. That's really funny. All right, they don't even remember which star it was. Well, four out of 5, they found cherry. Well, well, Don cherry would have been a much better, much better get at that point in time. But I will say that Nick noble would have been easier, probably, but yeah. There's a request. He had one song called the tip of my finger. Oh yes, that was the biggest for him. You could do that. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry to say it was written by Bill Anderson, who I absolutely loathe. But as a person, not necessarily as a singer, but anyhow, I will, I will be happy to look forward anyways since I don't think Bill gets any royalties from bumper music on talk stations. All right. Yeah, I guess we don't want to enrich his coffers, no matter what. All right, sure. Be happy to find out. I bet it's on this computer. Okay. All right, good deal. Well, keep us posted. So now we know Don cherry. Well, you know it was inside connections, but I was really hoping the mob was in here somewhere. Well, now that's not outside of possibilities. Yeah, boy. All right, so. You know what I mean? Yes, all I know is, do I ever? Well, you don't get to be, you don't get to be mayor without Friends. So in Vegas, it means something right, right? Well, that's still a really good get. I don't know any class prom that got anybody as big as the number one singer of the day. And in 1955 and 56, it certainly was Don Junior. Well, we appreciated him, believe me. Yeah, I'll bet. All right, well, I'll find Nick noble, of course everybody's done the tip of my fingers, but I'll find his version and Nick, by the way, was the Chicago and you know. So that's I know. You were born in Chicago. Yeah. That would have been a more sensible idea, but only one person said that. And it's funny because the others said, well, he had light colored hair. And then when he said Nick noble, that no, you dark hair. Well, if it was Nick noble, he did have dark hair. I'll give him that. All right. Remember, we're all about 85 years old. Believe me, absolutely. All right, Elizabeth. Well, thanks for calling. Talk to you soon

What's Happening in Arizona Can Happen to Any Christian School
"You folks at Liberty University. Many of you folks have done your student teaching work in Lynchburg. What if the Lynchburg city council woke up one day and decided, you know what? We don't want to have any Christians working in our public school system. The same thing could happen to you folks in in Jackson, Tennessee at union university, or right outside of Chattanooga at Lee university. Great Christian schools. Churning out incredible, incredible teachers. But they could be denied jobs if in fact they profess faith in Jesus Christ. Now, here's the curious thing. We have a lot of I know we have a large and very diverse audience. We have Christians and atheists we have Jews and gentiles we have people who are conservative people who are liberal people who are straight people who are gay, what I'm curious about, where is where are all the conservative gay folks out there? Why are they not rising up in outrage over this? Where is the gay community at large because right now they are citing with the school board and the school board is doubling down. And they're saying, you know what? We do not want Christians in our public schools. This ladies and gentlemen is the hill to die on. This is the this is the moment where you have to stand up. And you have to fight back. And I'm glad to see people standing up and fighting back, but I am really surprised. By the numbers of people who came out and said, yeah, we don't have a problem with this. We think that's a good idea. Christians have no right to be in public school classrooms. As teachers.
The Eric Metaxas Show
Pat Boone Shares a Story About Foster Brooks
"Rare opportunity to see two show business giants having this kind of a conversation. Unfortunately, pat Boone is both of those giants. And then there's Eric metaxas, your humble correspondent here. But pat, you I joke around with you all the time. You have met absolutely everyone, you know you knew everyone that I have admired over the years. Most of them have passed on. You mentioned Foster Brooks. Did you meet? Did you know Foster Brooks? Yes, of course I did. I was not expecting a Foster Brooks impression on the program. But you did know foster books because I don't know, you know, what do I know? We played in each other's golf tournaments. He came to my tournament in Chattanooga that I hosted for almost 40 years for the bethel orphanage orphanage Christian orphanage and school that took in kids who were wards of the court whose parents were in prison. Only institution like it I've ever known. And so I hosted Goff tournaments for that thing for 30 years. It's still going strong. And Foster Brooks came to it. Now, you know, after I asked him to come and he said he would, I said, wait a minute, foster, you perform, you play a drunk, which I know you are not. And he had been, though he wasn't anymore. But he sure knew how to do it. And I said, can you be funny without being drunk? And he said, well, yes. But it's harder for me, but I said, but you know all of our people, all of our kids in this school almost all of them were victims of parents with child with a alcohol abuse and drug abuse. So he would call me before he came to them. And all the supporters of bethel, he would say, can I tell this joke and he would tell me a joke? I'd say, oh, yeah, that's funny. Then he'd call me can I tell you? I said, no, no, no. No foster. You can't tell that joke here. Sorry. And then, and he performed beautifully without alienating anybody. And then, of course, I had to return the favor and go play in his tournament in Kentucky.

"The NASA minute. With Kevin mason I know I've talked about amber alerts before, and they're very important and very beneficial at times. But I found because we live in Tennessee and we have multiple interstates running through Nashville. It's almost like you lose track of these amber alerts because they're going off all the time. Here in Nashville, we've got three major interstates, north and south, you got interstate 65, northwest to southeast interstate 24, and then from west to east or east to west interstate 40. And that means a lot of drug trafficking, a lot of people trafficking and a lot of amber alerts. We'll get amber alerts maybe three or four times a week about things that are going on just north of the border in Kentucky, somewhere over in severe Bill or in Knoxville, or Chattanooga over on the east side of the state, and you can't keep track. You want to believe amber alerts are good things, but I'm afraid that if you get too many in one week, you just lose track of them. The potential for the system is great, but I think they've got to try something different or fix something to make it that much better. Because I'll be honest with you every time an amber alert goes off, I tend to tune out now because I just heard one. Sometimes hours earlier.

And we've been pretty big fans of chattanooga whiskey for a while they've been on the podcast. We really liked their one. Eleven series and this is their first bottle in bond release. So let's get a little bit more information about it now. They say that they're bottled in bond. Unlike any others. Because you know bottling bond has to come from one distiller one distilling season and stuff like that and they took this a step farther and they now have what are called vintage dated expressions on here and so what we're going to be tasting is the spring 2017 vintage series now. This release is crafted from four of their unique high mult. Bourbon mash bills all made within the same distilling season but each compose of at least twenty five percent of specialty multi grains. These were barrel back in june of two thousand seventeen which would make this about right at four years old. It's one hundred proof and has a fifty dollar price tag. are excited. Try this on. I love chattanooga they do a good job and it's i remember one eleven series and stuff like that it is. It's very chocolate very well. Multi like a walker or something like that. So let's the burger not burger not the burger the candy. It's not getting cheese and ketchup. Charbroil royal hamburger but all right on the news now. Getting cheeser kitchen. No i ain't getting charbroil though. I'm just kidding. I guess slight like cherry strawberry. Almost it's weird. I say scarborough but almost kind of get like a like a barbecue sauce note. Is it weird. Is that just me. Maybe a cherry barbecue. Maybe a little bit better at these things. No i'm not but there's definitely some like boulder for deer notes than i'm used to with from the other the one eleven which had like chocolate labs i agree. It is definitely more fruity on the taste. Chocolate comes in there and then it does open up like the slight hint of smokiness too. Yeah on the venezuela. You got like some that cherry strawberry for flavors with a little bit chocolate him alternates and then like a slight hint of like hickory or some type of spoke cherrywood. I don't know it's something there but it's it definitely has a little bit of smoke. A little bit of free characteristics not like one eleven which is definitely super chocolate. He's super multi and stuff like that. That could be the proof that changes with that to make that expression with different too. Yeah super interesting. let's go and read it so on the nose or yet here thumbs up zeppelin. I enjoyed the nose and on the taste up. I enjoyed it. I think it's different. It's definitely yeah. It's unique and the finnish sideways. Like like interesting of the smoke cherry. But it's as it sits. There will little bitter. Yeah but the front mid pal ever great. And so i enjoy it. It's super unique. It's definitely different than a lot of just regular in bonn expressions out there so hats off to them for trying to innovate in this kind of renowned category. Yep good job.

People need to know that it's people like this who do the bidding of the wealthy dot are the fucking real threat to any upward mobility or sense of autonomy or agency. You know that that we have and overall very social fabric of our country. Let's talk about candice zones. A bit of good news is chock full of heaven. Yeah i mean you know. She wanted to go get a cova test and she was denied a cova test. They basically she i think she's somewhere in colorado and someone wrote this Just said i've just learned of this testing request and as the owner of this business going to refuse as booking and deny service. We cannot support anyone who is proactively worked to make this pandemic worse by spreading misinformation politicizing and discouraging the wearing of masks and actively dissuading people from receiving lifesaving. Vaccinations the only other local testing option is the free kiosk by city hall. They mail their test to texas and have inconsistent result. Times do not take appointments. So it's walking only midday midday weekdays in their back alley. My team and myself have worked overtime to exhaustion unpaid and underpaid this past year spending our own capital to ensure that our community remains protected. It would be unfair to them and to the sacrifices we have all made this year to show to them. That was well put. Yeah and it's funny because then came is own suddenly there. I was refused it. Because i'm a i'm a black woman. And they're discriminating against me. And i've seen takes like that. They're like zoom out for a second. This is about a woman who has denied healthcare access. You know she's able to get it other. Where other places. But for someone. Like candice owens. Who herself says. Racism does not exist. I don't understand how suddenly that this construct is something. She's now agreeing to but again. It's always selective outrage and there's no consistency to any of their philosophical beliefs. So it's hard to have any kind of empathy for someone who says racism doesn't even exist and it just lets it. Seems like they're intentionally trolling the world and everybody sense of justice by complaining that a woman is being denied healthcare as their overturning roe like. But it's like really are you. Your energy is going to cape for candice owns because there's an entire state of people who are being denied healthcare access and. yeah anyway. Okay nice. Try all right. Let's talk briefly about some of the images coming out of new york new jersey south jersey philly area where a lot of my people are. And it's pretty. It's pretty wild. There is like a massive tornado in the philly area and in jersey the flooding that we're seeing in new york city is just wild like just warlike pouring up out of the out of the ground like manhole covers like blowing up like blowing off because of the pressure changes under neom but post mates is still out there delivering food. So that's good. You saw it. You saw that. Yeah of that guy fucking like delivering a meal in fucking two and a half three feet of water was the most distort shit. Didn't post meets like send it or tweet it may. Maybe i might have that wrong but it seemed i. Don't i mean it seems like a tweet. someone would do satirically. But you'd also believe it 'cause this is hell worst on. They're making sure you get your food right and underpaying people and trying to miss categorize them as independent contractors so we don't have to give them any benefit. Yeah but they say about twenty seven people of packages In the tri-state area. So it's man i it's it's really harrowing and again like this is such an emergency and again we're we're we are in the hands of leaders. Who like joe biden is saying like. Yeah yeah just to get up to get up to getting more drilling and stuff like that. Let's not really get too focused on changing the energy mix or what our investments are because. This is all fucking not real absolutely. It's just it's just like odd and again we're like it's an omni crisis constantly where we're still in the pandemic and we still have. We're trying to cut off benefits. People are made to feel that it's over and don't have the ability to take care of themselves and continue to like experiences shade and still clock in and all this other stuff. It's fucking you know it's tough like that's why i feel like every day. There's a tweet on like there's a tweet that goes by. Gets hundreds of the tunnel likes because it's mostly like being like everything's fucked up and we're just still meant to keep going like that. Constructive tweet is like very common and i feel like resonates with a lot of people. But it's i don't know it's just a tough situation to where even like the media discourse around. It is through the lens of people who this these aren't really existential. threats yet. More evidence that this is not normal manhattan. Central parks saw the most amount of rain.

On which was the ability to purchase and pay for anything with the card on file most likely visa card Giving rise of our company and our market share and and so we were really excited. That technology rolled out. We also heard that. The verification method which to us is a very It's the thing that we spent decades on to make sure we get right. Was this audible. Four digit pin in. We understood that was like absolutely the way to do it. That was the right solution for the right time or like well. Can we hit rate on this. A little bit and see where we can go and so we took voice as an opportunity to potentially be biometric modality and reinforce how we would verify the customer to initiate that payment transaction and ultimately we found his voice as a verification method. An-and identification method in certain respects. Just not quite there yet and it may or may not ever be there however it has a lot of applicable in other use cases and we wanted to make sure we knew as much as we needed to about the space to be able to apply it in different ways and so when it comes to chat. We're trying to label like educating helping our partners understand how chattanooga faces work utilizing natural language processing and then obviously that natural handover win. The voice voices the input method as opposed to the keyboard. And how those two play together. And i think the fundamental things that we've learned our it really just waiting for the customer to figure out and tell us what they prefer right We actually just spoke with the company couple of weeks ago where they're bringing more humans into the automated interface not less. They're actually going the other way. They're saying that there is more to augment multiple human interactions with chat whether it's voice or keyboard style interface four the data input then there's more value in bringing more humans in there is less and so our prediction was obviously in an l.

Conspiracy Theories
The History Of The Cola Wars
"In the late eighteen eighties. Pharmacist named john doc. Pemberton decided to get rich selling homemade cures and elixirs. We should note in spite of his nickname. Doc wasn't a traditional doctor. He hadn't trained in mainstream medical practice instead advocating for alternative treatments and remedies and he wasn't alone in his passions late nineteenth century doctors and patients. We're wild about drugs. And even pharmacists could get rich quick selling inert or sometimes dangerous products as cure all remedies before pemberton's time even something as benign as ketchup was marketed. As a treatment for diarrhea jaundice and rheumatism bayer pharmaceuticals pedaled heroin as a cough suppressant and a safer alternative to morphine and literal snake. Oil salesman claimed that rattlesnakes fluids could cure their gullible customers. It's no wonder that. Pemberton figured he could brew his own dubious remedy in make a fortune. His first hit product was called. French wine coca. It contains several ingredients that would raise eyebrows today but they were considered healthy at the time. Things like wine and coca leaves which contain cocaine. Pemberton claimed that french wine coca was an energy drink and a remedy for morphine addiction and the people loved it. Unsurprisingly the beverage sold well but it wasn't long before pemberton ran into an obstacle just months after french. Wine coca hit. The shelves at the end of eighteen eighty five fulton county georgia outlawed alcohol atlanta based dot. Pemberton had a new problem realizing he probably never strike it big with his mental tonic. Pemberton went back to the drawing board. He wanted to replicate french wine. Coca success but with a non alcoholic beverage. Luckily he had a new product in. Mind it too featured coca leaves but he added the kola nut a west african fruit pit. That's high in caffeine. The mixture of coca and cola gave customers a mild buzz and inspired the drinks name. Coca-cola the beverage sold modestly in its first year unfortunately. Pemberton wasn't particularly skilled with marketing. and distribution. so shortly before his death he sold the business to a fellow druggist with more business. Sense acer candler from their candler built a beverage empire through soda fountains in the nineteenth century. Chola manufacturers generally sold syrup to local businesses. This was more efficient because soda. Bottling technology was fairly new and not widespread yet. They're carbonated water was added to the syrup. So the coke was fresh and fizzy when it was served. Gamblers forward thinking mindset. Didn't stop there. He knew he could reach more customers if he didn't limit his avenues of distribution so in eighteen eighty nine. He sold bottling rights to a plant in chattanooga tennessee. Now customers didn't need to visit the nearest soda fountain for a glass of coca cola. They could buy it the corner shop and drink it at home then. Candler made another even bigger shakeup. He altered the coca cola recipe. We don't know all the changes candler made to the recipe. But we know one of his goals. He didn't want to sell cocaine to his customers and he had two reasons why first candler was very religious second and more importantly he was racist. Most soda fountains were segregated. So only white people could drink coca cola on tap but once he started selling bottled coke. Southern newspapers began printing rumors of quote negro cocaine fiends. In quote white supremacists suggested that the soda drove people of color to commit violent crimes including sexual assault hypocritically. Nobody expressed any concern. That cocaine might drive a white people to commit crimes and to be realistic. There probably wasn't enough cocaine in the beverage to spur consumers to violence although it's hard to say because it doesn't seem like anyone was tracking how much they were using in the recipe. Regardless candler was committed to eliminating the coke from coke.

He says. One solution for his company's vaccine maybe Tupac even more doses into every vile instead of 10 doses. Put 15. And ultimately that might relieve that bottom. Another proposal is to use what should be a patient's second shot to give more people their first shot. But Dr Hodge says it's possible that one dose would provide some benefit.

Hours after everybody was told that they had run out of doses of the vaccine. Local authorities are now calling it a Miscalculation. On Thursday. The vaccine, which first shipped on December, 12 was made available to everybody, Age 75 years or older. This sparked a run on the vaccine traffic from that morning on the way to the vaccination 10 to the Tennessee River Park and Hamilton County, which was backed up for miles. According to local outlet, first one first on three Officials said they didn't want people to continue sitting in their cars and not get the vaccine because supply was limited. That was in a press release on Friday afternoon. At that point, officials projected there were enough doses for the hundreds of people who are waiting in line inside the park. Those people continue through the park route to the vaccination tent. And the last in line left around 4 30 in the afternoon, but It Turns out, there were actually hundreds of more doses. And first on three sent people out to investigate. And the people told them that friends or family members who were helping to administer the vaccine. Told them to come out. Come on out, man. We got the vaccine. Hey, man. People said they were happy that the doses weren't wasted. But disappointed in the authorities management of the situation. That's one story. How about the flu? You remember all of these folks that were telling us about a twin endemic? Oh, you wait till flu season comes and we're gonna have Corona virus and the flu and people could be dropping like flies. Well as it turns out, Cases of the flu are down miraculously from last year, 99.5% Can't get much closer to 100% than then. In week, 51 of the Centers for Disease Control Preventions flew view data monitoring system. 36 positive flu tests were documented. This marks the steep decrease from last year's total of 7703 cases during the same time frame. The positivity rate was sharply as sharply declined this calendar year, as only 0.10% of tests taken this year came back positive. The five year average is about 16%. This is from the Washington Examiner. Data coming in defiance of the twin Would converge with catastrophic results. Dr. Brian Gereb Baldy, the medical director of Johns Hopkins University's Bio containment unit, told the Washington Examiner that We have to be concerned about the possibility of having a surgeon flew with the same time as we're seeing a surge in covert. In any given winter hospitals, attacks by the flu, he says. There's always a concern that our emergency departments will be overwhelmed and I see you capacity will be strained due to the coronavirus. Particularly with people who have co existing conditions. That then get influenza. Now, some elected officials acknowledge the possibility of a so called twinned Emmick. Laid out their proposals to combat a shortage of resource is back in September Governor Doug Ducey of Arizona. Expressed concerns about dwindling supplies, vowing he was taking preventive action. The overlap of covert 19 and flu season, he says, presents a perfect storm. And we aren't taking any chances. We are approaching this fall with a proactive mindset. And plan of action. The limit the impact of the flu and preserve hospital resource is so I know what some of you probably thinking will fill. It's because of the man. People are wearing mask and so they're not getting the flow. But they're getting coronavirus. So what gives I couldn't tell you to be quite honest with you. I don't know what the deal is. But I will tell you this. I know of now several cases of people being misdiagnosed. Have one case. I know, in particular woman was told she had coronavirus and she says, Well, Okay, I got coronavirus. For some reason, she decided to go back and get tested again. And she got tested again and it was inconclusive. So she decided to go back and get tested a third time, and they tested her for antibodies of Corona virus and said she had none. So the first Test that says she was positive. Was not the actually that so Here's what I'm telling you. Ah, lot of what we're seeing is passing for Corona virus is actually the flu. The flu hasn't gone down 99.5% over last year. So how many of these cases that are coming back as Corona virus or actually, just the flu? I couldn't tell you, but the sad part is neither could they. They don't know You can't explain this any other way Other than folks, thoughts diagnoses going on. With the coronavirus. And that's been a problem. Since the get go. We have never had consistent. Credible numbers from anybody as far as the cases or as far as the deaths. And we've seen this happen over and over again. Guy gets killed in a motorcycle wreck and South Carolina coronavirus. I mean, it became a running joke with a lot of folks. I mean, you die of whatever you know Coronavirus, everything's coronavirus. So you see people coming in the hospital? I mean, there may be people dying of the flu, but they're saying it's coronavirus. So the tests have not been all that accurate. And the question is how many of you folks who have been tested positive for corn of ours, actually, Well, I'll tell you how you know. Because Corona virus is different from the flu. If you've lost your sense of smell, That's one of the main things if you haven't And you've got flu like symptoms and you haven't lost your sense of smell.

A Plan to End Homelessness in Chattanooga with David Grabiner
"Do you see yourself headed in the future. And secondly what can our audience bring value to you. Can they bring value to you. Okay so where. I see myself headed in. The future is very unique. I am actually starting a program where i hope to use a modified burr method to help end homelessness in chattanooga. So i already house homeless in my apartment complexes but had this idea i'm going to buy properties using investor. Money who wanna make a difference and return. Then i'm going to rehab the properties in partnership with steve chattanooga. They'll pay for half the rehab. If i agree to rent it out to low income individuals. Then i'm going to rent them out to people who are on section eight who are homeless or at risk of being homeless so when someone goes homeless they often get a section voucher. Then i put him in the property at the same time. I'm going to re educate the tenant. There is a program called the homeowner fss program that section eight does but no one takes advantage of Teach these people how they can achieve their goal of becoming a homeowner like over the course of a year and it incentivizes them because if they increase their income they don't lose that money like they normally did instead. It goes into a pot that they can use as the down payment on a property. Then i'm going to refinance people my money out and then hopefully i'm gonna resell the property to that previously homeless individuals so they can just by the house that they're in so it's a completely kind of shift from what i've been doing but it's something really passionate about and hopefully so. I already bought my first property. I'm going to buy ten next year. And in the three course of three years. I'll have a hundred. I'm going to get one hundred three years. And i'm going to try to see how many people i can successfully put through this program.

Knowing When To Exit And What To Look For In Your Next Deal
"Do you wanna talk about maybe some of your plans to scale like once you've improved a property and brought it to its peak and you think that now it's time to exit when you would do that and then what the what you'd look for in the next deal like what you're looking for now with your strategies of what you're trying to acquire okay so a couple of things there so first of all what i look for now is other properties that have an opportunity like they're mismanaged under rant They need some light repairs major. I don't actually normally do huge renovations on more looking for like okay. The missed managed properties. I'm also i've started doing commercial as well. And that i just look at. Is there from some reason while i'm getting a good deal like if i can get something for a good cap rate and it's a commercial property even it's not mismanaged because there's not much management to like a commercial retail center honestly. It's pretty easy but that's just like okay. There's some problem here the market while. I'm able to get this for a good character. So i'm looking for deals that have the potential to increase the revenue so more rents and then when do i sell. That's a tough question. Because i like holding onto my properties. I don't always sell sell sometimes but it has to be like i. i think i'm really getting premium for it. Even for this apartment complex. The forty unit. I probably went to seoul the except i set my price and they met it and i was like okay. Fine i never even listed like i just told a realtor about it and they brought someone it was a really easy transaction because you know what if i'm going to sell it at the get enough because now i gotta take all this money and go reinvest in. I gotta go find another deal. So that means. I have to put more work in. But it'll be worth it because a. Have cashed in all this money makes sense and then how do you find him. Do you find the sweet spot apartment complexes. Yeah so network network network network honestly. It's more about like. I'm really dialed into chattanooga. Market kinda my. It's my advantage. As i really stick to this market because i know so many i know so many other investors and i want everyone to know that i'd buy properties. I mean i got some deal from a pest control guy you know he does pest control it. Another apartment complex or another duplex is like. Hey they probably want to sell the put me in contact with them. I'll see if they're willing to sell and the sure enough they were. They were instagram. Got people bring me deals on instagram. Because they see me active in the market. I really just want everyone in chattanooga bigger pockets interview like everyone in chattanooga if you have a deal come the day. 'cause i buy and and i get repeat sellers especially real estate agents because my goal is to be the easiest buyer ever a lot of real estate agents are dealing with really difficult sellers especially when it's multifamily and there's this and there's that the sellers can be really difficult so i try to be the best possible i will like gloss over some things i don't. I'm i tried to get for a good price. But i'm really really easy to deal with especially on terms and inspection. I'll be flexible. I work their schedule. A ever they can. I always do what i say i'm gonna do. I've never not closed on a deal that i put under contract in less. I found something due diligence. I it's just never happened because that's my reputation. I am a good easy buyer. Now i buy things for a deal. Everyone knows that has to be a good price but if it's a good price i'm definitely going to buy

The devastating flood remains the worst in the rivers history since recordkeeping began. But Lisa Davis of the University of Alabama, his digging in the dirt and finding evidence of even larger floods in the more distant past when floodwaters recede, they leave behind minerals, and so we searched for these deposits and we date them and we build a chronology of events and in some cases were actually able to reconstruct with the height or the size of the flood was. Answer Research signed in northern. Alabama. Her team has found evidence of several Tennessee river floods larger than the flood of eighteen, sixty seven and she says, such events could happen again.
