Jimmy White Fumbles the Bag Once Again

In 2023, Jimmy White bought the Valleybrook Golf Course, committing up to $3.5 million to overhaul the property, upgrade the course, and improve the facilities. Well, if you’ve been to VB recently, you’ll see that he’s fallen short of his promises once again….sound familiar? Like the Bend project, projects like the clubhouse have been put on indefinite hold. White’s staff specialize in gaslighting the residents and members into thinking they’re going to get updates and answers. Their favorite line is “check the newsletter” and “when we have an update, we’ll be sure to share.” Obviously, they have plenty of updates, they just know they’re going to have an uprising on their hands. Well, he can't hide forever, and now, the VB neighborhood is up in arms about a leaked potential project to develop land for more homes. The leaked image looks like it adds close to 100 lots. Just what Hixson Pike needs, right? More like, just what Jimmy’s wallet needs. If anyone thinks Urban Story Ventures has viable cash to complete any of their promised projects, drive by Valleybrook. You’ll have your answer. Oh, and don’t think about critisizing him. You’ll hurt his feelings. Reminds me of a certain Hamilton County Mayor I didn’t vote for. Anyways, I look forward to seeing the new Valleybrook Data Center!

Advice for how to handle neighbor's free roaming dogs?

I'm in Hamilton County, just outside of Chatt proper, so everything is done through HES and their animal control.

My neighbors let their dogs wander the neighborhood. They've been hit by cars multiple times. They chase people who walk up and down the street and tbh I'm surprised they haven't been beaten or shot. I work from home, so when they're in the road, I know, because people lay on their horns all afternoon. I keep finding dog poop in my front yard. Someone dumped or stopped feeding some feral cats recently so I've been TNRing them through HES (shout out to that department), but of course, that only attracts the dogs even more. Dogs belong to the property to our right, and cats get fed on the upper lefthand corner of our lot, but that doesn't stop the dogs coming through the unfenced portion of our yard and up the driveway. Please note this was already a problem for like a year before the cats showed up. But now I'm worried about them, too.

I was in contact with an animal control officer for months who encouraged me to send photos and videos. I did. A lot. But then communication dried up. The dogs are still loose. The owners never seem to be home, or it's always different people, and even when the owners are contacted (one of the dogs ate rat poison from another neighbor's trash and we were trying to save her), they really don't care much.

Suggestions? Helpful advice? Anyone in the area have any luck with a similar issue? We rent and it also doesn't make sense for the burden to be on us to install a fence to keep THEIR dogs away. I just want them contained on their property or for them to go to owners who actually care about them.

Is the internet slower

Anyone notice a drop in speed? I am getting the wheel a lot more than I used to. I noticed it at my house and thought I may need to look at a network upgrade, but now I have noticed it at work the last few days. EPB

Perfect Reuben every time, Nicks Deli

I've posted about Nicks before but just wanted to remind y'all to stop by. Yes it's a small menu but it's all top tier and not expensive. Give him a call and it's ready in a few minutes. Cajun turkey is also great, it's all great.

Chattanooga does not offer livable wages

Not specifically disparaging this organization, but a director-level position requiring a degree for $40k wouldn’t be affordable in Niota, much less here. I see it all the time.

Universal Joint

I keep biking past this place a lot, and am curious. How is the food? Are prices reasonable? Who painted the mural outside?

Apple Fritter Wings

Folks, as you may know it's wing week. What you may not know is this:

Chattanooga Pizza Company No. 2 is dishing out apple fritter wings in celebration of the holiweek.

I found myself driving past today and thought that apple fritter wings sounded intriguing so I popped in and got an order.

Guys...

Guys these were not only the best wings I've ever eaten, these hunks of meat and bone transcended every culinary experience I've had in my life. I believe in God now, and God is whoever made those wings. I want to be baptized and/or waterboarded in that sauce. I want these wings for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every single day until my death, at which point I want to be cremated on a funeral pyre comprised entirely of apple fritter wings.

Seriously, go get some apple fritter wings.

Note: I am not endorsed or sponsored by Chattanooga pizza company in any way. However, if they'd like to repay me in apple fritter wings I would happily accept.

Another post asking about jobs

I just want a job where I can put my head down, shut my mouth, not be bothered, do my tasks, and go home. I literally do not care what the work is, but I don't have experience in much besides for and retail.

If anyone has any entry level office of physical labor jobs please DM me, thank you.

Edit: Thank you everyone for such thoughtful recommendations and kindness. I have been at my current job for a long time and I love it, but it is not the right place for me in my life right now and I just need something transitional. I had a rough day. It's been a rough couple months, really. And I appreciate y'all's kindness.

Dune 3 70mm Tickets Available

The aquarium just released tickets for Dune 3 in December. Seeing The Odyssey there was something else.

Get them while they are there! Use the TN Aquarium site as they aren’t sold through AMC which is crashing right now anyway due to the influx.
