Stopped at a filling station for gas. And we're a man that my husband didn't understand, very clearly had said about planes crashing in New York. We continued out of the city but put the radio on. And heard that the Pentagon had been yet We were. We were just floored. We continue to drive and we said we have to stop early wayside and call our son. We were able to get through to him. And he said. He was upstairs and his a townhouse. Getting ready to go on base. When he heard the plane fly over. And he knew it would crash. It was so law So we, uh We're going to go to Williamsburg and visit that It was just so chilling it this But ruined our all day. We continued down south to visit relatives, but Of course, everybody was worried that we knew we had been in the area. Sure. And Folks were relatives were worried about us. Our son. Would eventually the stationed at the Pentagon. Took him. I think within a few weeks He was there. And I Could not get the office that he would have been in because of smoke damage.

Surely 85561616 20 again the econet mortgage talk and text line. This text from the 262 I believe was 240 sorry, was working at the National Institutes of Health and Bethesda when the police notified all of us that for non essential had to leave. Planes had flown into the trade center in the Pentagon. Few left But listen to the radio. We tried to find TVs. Finally, I joined the exodus and heard the silence everywhere. People stunned, but silence, even the traffic and the birds. Seem to be quiet. I remember that so well, we both worked real long days that day, and I got home about 6 30 that night and people in our neighborhood had put out candles outside front and I can remember going out and and it seemed like the birds have been shushed and you know that nothing was flying. There was There was a stillness, right? Yeah, that that I will never forget. Um, I love this text from the and I can't disagree with you at all. Just because of the fact that I'm over the flight pattern for Mitchell, and there was nothing, nothing Nothing. Um, I know we got to go to break but this one I think is great. Good morning, Jane and Carol on 9 11. I was working on a managerial position of the Pfister Hotel. We had numerous gusts from New York City, staying at the hotel on business. Some of whom worked in the world trade Centers. The hotel lobby was an open lounge where hotel guests congregated to watch the large TV following the planes crashing into the into the centers. The grief on display in the hotel lobby that day is hard to describe and completely understandable. We were booking local limousine companies to take guests back to New York City. The limos would be full of guests, some of whom were complete strangers but shared a common tragedy. Some guests were buying cars guests from other parts of the country. Did not leave the hotel for a week or more due to lack of transportation options. We took care of them like family a couple of days after 9 11, the hotel John manager had a very large American flag hung from the mezzanine. I will never forget that time. That shows the unity that we had. Absolutely, and we can have it again. We really can. We are good people in a in a good country, and we just need to Tone down the rhetoric a little bit and remember that we have common. We have commonalities. We we, It's America. We're all of different, you know. It's this huge melting pot of people that have all these different experiences and lives. And if we just stop for a minute and take a breath, yes. And maybe just say hello to the person standing next to you. Some simple salutation can make it such a better day for somebody. You never know what's going on in their life. So like you said, pump the brakes on the rhetoric we can be. We are a great country. We just need to be able to understand our differences. And put up with what we need to put up with and recognize the compromise is not a dirty word. It's 9 52. We have to go to break Jane and Carol, This is Wtmj. Stick around more.

"That might be me. Well, I've seen some cases on surfboards and bravo to you because all I'll do is watch. I'm the biggest chicken on the face of the Earth for you See, there's an interesting thing already. You know, you've been to places like Port Ballon tray and there, I said, whenever Americans come here, right. And I'm being brutally honest with you. They go to certain places, right? The go to certain they don't know where to go. And then then they're put into reverse. They don't go any further. You know, they go somewhere in the coach, and then they reversed back to wherever they came from, And they don't get out and have a look around. You do that, though, don't you? Well, not only do I do it, but I just six hours of brand new radio broadcasting 52 weeks a year and in it much of it is, uh, education, motivation, understanding, knowing how to do it and how to do it right because one of the things that's truly sickening Is when I meet somebody, and they've just come back from a place and I say, Oh, you must have gone to know we didn't see that. Well, did you know we didn't do that? It's you know, they go unprepared. And so when they come back, they've missed it all. Well, tell me something, right? Titanic. Obviously, I heard something in the redo the other day sent, although there's too much too tannic going on. There's too much of this Titanic, You know they live locally. They live well, They're tired of hearing it because they're here. And maybe they had to put up with some inconvenience during the construction or noise or whatever. But no, The rest of the world doesn't know what's it like running the rest of the world? I hope beggars, Titanic and you've been I haven't been to the new Titanic centre. I'm there next Friday night. I'm really looking for love it. What did you make of it? You're going to love it. You're gonna love it. We were there yesterday. The tickets were sold out. I'm sure you're a special case so you'll be meted met needed, you'll be meted you'll be met Greeted. That's what happens when you have jet lag people, yes or new a whole new language of established over. That, But you know, I'm not to be responsible for anything I say or do. I'm not over jet like it, but, um, and you can read my blog about but people there who came thinking that were going to buy a ticket yesterday. And you're talking about Thursday. Right. I mean, lots of people are working. You think you got a shot and they were turned away because there were no tickets available, But they were buying tickets for today. Tomorrow next week, you know, so do get a ticket in advance. Um, it's a marvelous place. It is just a marvelous place. It's a fantastic and you know, I was saying after we left there last night, I met the people who are at the core. Of spearheading that project in 2000 and nine in August in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Irish fest where I broadcast my weekend of shows from the Pfister Hotel in Milwaukee in the lobby, and I have people from Irish fest in Tourism, Ireland come over and meet me there and we do the show live in front of the fireplace. It's fabulous. And I interviewed a couple of fellows whose names I can't remember. I have to go dig them out from my website Who told me about this project that they are behind and with and part of an involved in what's going to be in whatever. Now 2000 and nine. August was about 10. Months after the great banking disaster of 2000 and eight That's right. Think about the courage and vision. To go ahead because nobody was doing anything and millionaires were created during the Depression because they went out and they built knowing that life will turn around. And so you have to give them enormous credit for what they've done because what you have is not a county fair that comes and goes. This is a permanent establishment that for generations will bring people to Belfast in a way they might not have come before. This is our leading therapy zone away, isn't it? It certainly is only it's prettier. Hey, you were and it's in a better location. You have to go through a lot of grief to get two pieces. You're quite right. Actually, I agree. It's in a much better location. Stephanie were pushed for time here, but I'm going to ask you a couple of things, right? What do we do Well in Northern Ireland. What do you do? Well, I think you do what comes naturally it it's not as if somebody sits down. And says, Well, when we do this, we have to do this in a certain way. I think it's a natural inclination to hospitality and to doing things with passion, so that when it's all done It exudes excellence, and it's true from the Ulster American Museum and Heritage Folk Park. Whatever the end of the name of it is, you can walk into something that doesn't look as dramatic as the Titanic. Belfast doesn't look like much on the outside, but you walk in, and it's like Walt Disney was here. Everything is done. Look at the Saint Patrick's center. Everything was is done with twinkling eye to detail, and it just comes. Those. There's some things you can't teach people. You know, either You've got an honest mentality or you don't you know either your creative or you're not. There is an inbred combination. Of vision, creativity and passion and the Titanic. Belfast is the extreme quintessential example of that, So that's what we do. Well, what do we need to tighten up on? Street signs. Honey, Do you know that or Mo Avenue has not If it's there, you must need a big magnifying glass. Decide to find that there isn't one street side. So if you're going that names the street all the cross streets are named then So if you're going to have lots of foreign visitors or no to the city, have somebody drive around and check where you need to put up. Just the name of the street. I know what street that is. You're telling What's three to my on? Bedford County, Pennsylvania, is small town America. Medal of.

The hotel has hosted a number of presidents and presidential candidates. Elvis presley stayed at the hotel. After performance in milwaukee joan rivers and frankie avalon have graced the krahn room stage at the fister and in recent years. It's become the preferred accommodation for many major league. Baseball teams most of these celebrities enjoyed an uneventful state of fister but for a select few their presence awakened something dark and strange. Waiting within the walls of the hotel. David tried his best to look unimpressed as he followed his teammates into the ornate lobby. You didn't stare at the painted angels on the ceiling or gawk at the breast sentinel standing between the marble pillars. But when bobby chapman gave him a cookie grin and asked what he thought david just straw just though he'd seen a thousand others like it. The truth was just six months ago. David could never have dreamed of staying at a place like this. That was before he got called up to the big leagues and signed a multi million dollar contract back then. He was just a minor league player. Who hadn't set foot in a four star hotel but here he was and in many ways it was because of his stepfather glenn was the one who had encouraged david to play baseball. In the first place he'd paid for lessons and little league and he'd been david's manager for years and now that he was in the major league glenn wanted to make sure he stayed there for since he signed his contract with the socks glenn had accompanied him at away games. It was glenn who made sure he didn't waste time hanging out with the guys in got him up early for extra practices. David loved clan. But sometimes all that pressure could be hard to deal with not that things had been easier in the minor leagues back then. His days were long and hard he'd spent hours on a sweltering. Greyhound check into a rundown motel room that smelled like cigarettes just to do it all again the next day but at least he had his teammates. They didn't care about his batting average. Or how many no hitters pitched. They were like family no matter how he played. David hardly knew anything about his new teammates from it wasn't that they weren't nice but they were millionaire celebrities. They had their pictures on collectible cards and their names on souvenir shirts. He couldn't exactly relate to them plus it was hard to find the time to get to know them as glenn often reminded him famous player like david ortiz could afford to take a night off every once in a while but if he let himself slip for even a minute then everyone would realize they've been wrong about him and he would be right back where he started as david past the lounge. Bobby chapman called out to him. He asked david wanted to join them or drink. But before david could respond glenn came up from behind him and clapped him on the back. You told bobby. Maybe some other time david needed to get us rest for the game tomorrow. Bobby raised in. I pro and asked what he was talking about. They were playing the diamondbacks tomorrow and that team had won a game in months. David didn't have anything to worry about. David's cheeks flushed. He shrugged into agreed that he was just feeling beat. Of course he wasn't he'd slept on the plane and he'd gotten a full nine hours of sleep every night since he signed his contract. But that didn't matter. Only what glenn thought was best mattered. David put his head down and hurried toward the grand staircase as he and glenn climb the stairs. David surveyed the paintings hanging along the walls. One teacher to group of dead birds dangling from a string in another a glum woman slumped beside a lifeless gray river of third show too terrified girl leaning away from a leering man with yellow teeth. David shivered as he got farther from the hustle and bustle of lobby. The air got colder and the light grew dimmer. Long shadows fell across the marble columns after glenn headed toward his own room. David quickened his pace. He was glad they weren't staying in milwaukee too long there was something about this place that he didn't like as he approached room to thirty one at the end of the hall. David stopped in his tracks. The door was shrouded in darkness in for. He thought he saw a figure standing in front of it. David close this is and took a deep breath when he looked again. The shadow was gone. David let himself into the room undressed and stepped into the shower. He stood under the stream of water and tried to let the stress of the day. Wash away clearly. The pressure was getting to him. He knew he hadn't seen anything he was just paranoid. He had to be careful or else. The stress could affect his game but just.

Nisha had woken up in a cold sweat and known immediately that the first work of her residency had to be of that man. What she hadn't realized was that every subsequent painting or drawing would be of him as well whether she did it in charcoal or pencil. It was always him. She wasn't doing it on purpose every time she started a new piece. The same image just emerged nisha side. It was probably time to leave. She stopped her supplies into her. Beat up shoulder bag and picked it up. But her old bag had finally had enough. The seems ripped spilling nisha sketchbooks and pencils all across the studio. The last thing to flutter to the ground was glossy pamphlet for the university of chicago. Nisha groaned in frustration. She didn't have the money to pay her rent. Let alone by new bag. Residency stipend wasn't even enough for her to afford living expenses and art school tuition. She might have asked her dad for help but he made it very clear that his financial support depended on her making career choices that he approved of nisha side and picked up the university of chicago pamphlet. Going back to school would make everything so much easier. Maybe her dad was right. Maybe it was time to grow up. The old grandfather clock in the hall chimed at an icy chill swept through the studio. Nisha glanced up at the hallway. Shock ran through her like a bolt of electricity. There was a man in the window. The man from the portrait's he stood a few inches from the glass staring directly at her. Lisa's heart pounded. She jumped off her stool and backed away from the window. The lights flickered as the man pounded on the glass and screamed. Though his mouth was open in agony. No sound leftists throat then. Everything went dark after a moment. The lights licked back on. Nisha stared at the window and shock. The man was gone. here's stomach lurch does. She flung open the door and ran out of the studio. She glanced up and down the hallway. But no one was there. She rubbed her temples. It was nearly eleven. pm. She was probably just tired. She needed to go home and get some rest tomorrow. She'd come back and paint something totally new maybe a still life or tableau anything but the same portrait of that man that night nisha tossed and turned when she did sleep. The man from the painting haunted her dreams elbow. She was exhausted the next morning. She quickly got into the swing of things she worked through launch and before she knew it the grandfather clock in the halls struck three nisha took a step back number desk and observe her work. She ran her hands through her hair and groaned. It was the same portrait. She'd may twenty five times before she didn't understand how this had happened. She thought she was drawing a woman with curly hair and slim bear shelters but somehow the herod come out straight and the shoulders had morphed into an old fashioned suit. Nisha gathered things and grabbed your coat. She usually stayed at the studio late into the night but there was no way she was doing that today. Honestly she needed some time off. Maybe she wouldn't come back next week. Maybe she'd never come back at all as nisha entered the main lobby. Her cell phone rang she side. It was her father again. She supposed she couldn't avoid them forever. She stepped into one of the empty ballrooms and closed the door behind her shutting out the hubbub of the noisy lobby when she answered the phone. Her father launched right into one of his usual lectures. The application deadline for the university of chicago was coming up. It wouldn't take that much work and he would help her not just with the application but with tuition as well even housing and expenses. He reminded her that just because she applied. It didn't mean she had to go nisha side. Maybe she should just give in at the very least it would get him off her back for a while. She took a deep breath and told her father that fine. If it meant he would stop bothering her than she would apply before he could respond. The line filled with static. Nisha yelled into the phone but she couldn't hear a thing. The screen went black and the device suddenly burned. Her fingers nisha shrieked and dropped her phone. That's when she felt it again that same reasoning air from the night before seeped into her bones. A wind picked up in the ballroom as she looked around for an open window. Nisha notice something that made her blood run cold. A figure stood in a darkened corner of the room. Her heart pounded has. The man took a step forward and a shaft of light fell across his face. The same face. She'd been painting day after day. Is mouth moved forming silent words that she couldn't understand nisha packed up as she reached for the door behind her man advanced. She turned and fled. She ran through the crowded lobby pushing tourists out of her way. She didn't even think about where she was going. She just needed to get away from that. Man nisha sprinted down a hallway and found yourself back in front of the studio. She glanced behind her and saw him still steadily advancing on her. Michelle ran into her studio and slammed the glass door locking it behind her. She took a deep breath and tried to tell herself but she was just seen things. She wasn't in any real danger. But then the cold wind picked up in the windowless studio and the threat suddenly felt very real. Nisha crawled under her desk. The wind world her. Drawings into the air she screamed. Does the pictures blew past in a flurry of paper as she watched them in terror. Something occurred to her. The drawings were not identical. Nisha stood up and all at once the wind died away. Her heart pounded as she gathered up the drawings and arranged them by date once she had them at a neat stack.

He was his father's son by day and ida's lover by night but lately things had changed ida had inquired when she could meet his sister. She wanted to know what they would name their children just yesterday. She asked when they were going to be married. Charles had said he couldn't think about that not when they were only a day away from the grand opening and the elevators weren't even finished yet. He told her they talk about it. Once the pfister was officially up and running this placated ida but charles knew he owed her the truth. A knock came to the door and charles opened it to find ida outside she were a great evening tress with pale. Blue lace at the potus. Your hair flowed over her slim shelters like a waterfall of black. Silk charles's chess tightened. He hated himself for what he had to do. He took a deep breath and asked her to take a seat. I- browde knitted and concern. She asked what was the matter. Charles turned away from her and looked at the floor. He knew there was no use and delaying it any longer so he cleared his throat and got right to the truth. He told her they could never be married or have children if they did either it would mean the end of his inheritance and his father's legacy i just face went red and her eyes watered charles scrambled to speak. He told her he was sorry. This wasn't the end they could be just never in public. I looked at him for a moment weighing her options before getting up and heading back out into the hallway charles ran after her as she headed toward the spot where the grand staircase met the empty elevator shaft. When she reached the stairs she turned there. Were tears running her cheeks. She looked at charles and told him the truth. Her words landing like blows to his chest. She was pregnant and she would rather die than give birth to the child of a man who didn't love her before charles could say anything. I leapt into the open. Elevator shaft.

The building would be an eight storey romanesque revival palace with ballrooms billiard halls and state of the art electricity and when it was completed it would cement guidos reputation as a distinguished member of the gilded age elite. Unfortunately guido passed away before the hotels opening day and finishing construction was left to his son. Guido adopted charles fister sometime before his eleventh birthday though guido never spoke about the boys adoption historians theorized that he wanted an air to take over his company at inherit his vast fortune from a young age. Guido considered charles a junior member of the firm. He worked for his father's company at a young age and he soon became a trusted business partner. All his life charles had prepared to take on his father's mantle and the opening of the long-awaited vista hotel was paramount to the pfister legacy one that would reaffirm that legacy or better or worse. Charles's stomach churn. Does the carriage rattled through the frozen streets. The peaked out the window was the horses halted. Before his father's imposing townhouse charles hadn't spoken to guido and weeks that he felt anxious about the visit. Guido had adopted charles and his sister when they were ten while they were young. He took every opportunity to remind them that his patronage did not come without conditions they needed to carry on his legacy therefore everything they did reflected on him if they spoke out of turn if their nails were too long or if they use the wrong fork at dinner. We'd threatened to send them back to the orphanage. Even as charles grew to become a shoot businessman and worthy air guido still criticized him relentlessly. Despite this charles still loved his father. You wanted to make him proud even if it meant making certain sacrifices but there was one thing that he wasn't willing to give up her name was ida. She was a poor jewish immigrant working in guidos leather factory. She couldn't light up a room with her smile. She was kind and clever and she had the confidence to always speak her mind to charles. She was perfect. But if guido ever learned about their relationship charles had no doubt his father would disown him. Guido pfister son couldn't be associated with a poor immigrant worker from the shop floor. Charles is only consolation. Was that someday. Guido would be gone and unfortunately as his father's health continued to decline. Charles knew that day would be soon. He wouldn't be happy when guido past but at least then he and ida could be together. Charles rang the townhouse bell. An glum-looking porter greeted him at the door and let him upstairs to his father's bedroom. The drapes were drawn and the only light came from a few flickering gas lamps along the walls. Guido sat up. When charles enter the room. Aside from the dark circles under his eyes his face was almost completely colorless. Charles drew up a chair just as father burst into a rattling cough when he regained his composure. He didn't mince. Words told charles that he was ill of a doctor said he didn't have long to live charles's heart saying he tried to reply but a lump had formed in his throat guido look straight at his son and spoke in a low voice. There was one thing he needed to address before he passed on. He knew about ida. One of the other workers had seen them together. Charles stared at his father in disbelief. He didn't understand how he had found out. They had been so careful but before he could attempt to reply guido continued. It was a critical time for the pfister legacy. They were mere months from opening the hotel. And so to. Ensure charles wouldn't sully the family's reputation. Guido had put a provision in his will if charles and ida ever married or if they ever had a child together than charles would lose his inheritance you could be with ida or he could be his father son. He couldn't be. Both charles sat stunned. He knew that there was nothing he could do to change his father's mind now. He had to face what he had feared the most. He had to make a choice. Charles paced anxiously around suite two thirty one as he waited for ida to arrive. The hotel's grand opening at already begun and he could hear laughter and a string quartet floating up from the lobby below. It had been six months since that terrible day. When he'd sat at his father's deathbed charles had asked his father for twenty four hours to make his decision. Guido wasn't pleased but he allowed it but by the next day when charles returned to say that he'd chosen his father it was already too late..

A friend of ours worked at a hotel called the Pfister Hotel, Kind of Ah, like the Milwaukee version of the Brown Palace.

And she came over and said Joe, Look who's over there and I turned around and my eyes popped out of my head. Like you see in the cartoons and I took my program over to this table of these gentlemen sitting there and I walked up to Them and said, Um, Mr Aaron, I would love for you to make a family heirloom. My kids will fight over and he signed my program handed it to Bobby Mercer, who hanged, signed it and handed it to Blue Panella. And he signed it and end it to Kurt Bevacqua. Wow, and I was like I was thinking of all the times. I saw the Yankees when I was growing up. And everything and I said, I'm so happy Togut, your signature Shellman. I'd be happy to pick up your tab and Hank Aaron said to me. You don't wanna do that, sir. We're drinking with Panella. That is a great story. Thank you, Joseph.
