My grandfather served in World War II.
I was fortunate to spend a week with just the two of us when I was a teenager.
In between the night fishin' and the biscuits and oatmeal every morning, he taught me a few things.
He would talk about the war, his late wife, Helen, and his construction business.
Between the stories, he would give me advice.
Two things he would say over and over: "Remember, son, painters paint, it's what they do" and "always be smart enough to know when you're stupid."
At the time, I didn't fully grasp what he meant.

If you have tried to watch the Olympics on WCYB today, you noticed that nearly every time a commercial break happens, there is a glamorous Ballad Health commercial singing Ballad's praises.
2. Notice when Ballad released its "Statement" to the press.
It was late Friday afternoon.
This is commonly known as the time for a weekend dump.
In other words, large corporations, or savvy media folks know to dump bad news to the press on Friday afternoons, hoping it will be forgotten by Monday morning.
