There's a video going viral in Chicago right now by a guy claiming large scale raids will start around 2AM in specific neighborhoods. It's BS. The person who posted it has a checkered history of false claims to try to gain followers and drum up business for a private security company he runs.

When Ella sings "the way you sing off key" in They Can't Take That Away From Me Louis should have played a quick bum note. A real turd of a blow on the horn. Just chunked it. Anyway that's how I would have improved that particular recording.
