Effingham

And so you use the example of fighting solar farms, which is happening in Will County.

It's happening in Effingham.

It's happening around the state.

And what is your, I mean, how are you going to make that happen on the app? What's your goal there?

from an action perspective.

You know, we want champions to use the app and get as many people on and connect so that the battles can't be fought.

But then we aggregate our fights and make sure that Sangamon is working with Effingham, is working with Will County.

And we're at the state level saying, hey, these energy mandates are killing us.

I think we can do...

How far are you from Effingham?

Uh, it'd be about three hours.

Uh, maybe four.

About four hours.

I know I'm coming through Effingham, Illinois.

Miles, did you know there was an Effingham, Illinois?

No.

Readings are in the 60-degree range down towards St. Louis.

68 Effingham.

and over at the Brickyard as well.

Most of the real significant shower activity still lingering across the Buckeye State, and other than some scattered fair weather cumulus clouds out there, I think on Saturday they should be dry, maybe a sprinkle around in the morning, no consequence at all, and kickoff temperatures probably a little north of 60, and later in the ballgame into the 60s, so pretty typical stuff out there as we get ready to roll the calendar into the month of October.

Fifth Generation, give me the rundown, the locations of this family-owned business.

The main store is in Dietrich, and then we have a store in Effingham, a store in Robinson, and then our store in Taylorville on Webster Street.

Remind us one more time, what's special about the anniversary sale starting September 24th through October 17th?

It is a buy one, get one, 50% off the MSRP on the second piece.

It wasn't until about 2 in the morning when the state police showed up at my aunt's house.

They were there to inform her that my grandfather had passed away in his hotel room in Effingham, Illinois.

Here's where I pause this story to tell you that is the aunt who is the mother to the cousin Sam that this story is about.

I have to tell you that my cousin's paternal grandfather had been diagnosed with terminal cancer and they gave him only months to live.

I like, and I follow you closely, and I know you and I are kindred spirits in this regard.

Up in Southern Illinois near Effingham, on your way up to Rose-Hulman where Jake's going to college, there's this town called Casey, Illinois.

And I'm like, oh, I've heard about Casey on Sunday morning.

And they have all of the giant stuff, the giant thimble, the giant barbershop pole.

She wasn't the only one.

A second Illinois woman, Jean Thomas, called Walmart stores in Freeport, Vandalia, and Effingham for pretty ordinary reasons.

Checking a return, asking about a prescription, confirming if items were in stock.

Neither one signed anything giving Walmart permission to record more than their words.

But yeah, him and then Tim Shearer with Blues Hog.

I met Tim at our first contest in Effingham, Illinois.

I didn't know he owned Blues Hog.

He actually downplayed it like he didn't.
