TO OUR VIEWERS: Due to a widespread COVID outbreak at NewsChannel 9 and for the safety of our employees, we are unable to provide our normal Good Morning Chattanooga programming on WTVC and ETVC. Our other newscasts will air during their regular scheduled times today.

Three lovely poems by Ace Boggess today, including these lines from "What Do You Think About When You Swim?"

using only a tongue
for a hammer."

Struggling with the dimensions of infinity.
