[0:00] Yeah.
[0:00] Mr. Justin Dart.
[0:03] Justin.
[0:04] Hello.
[0:05] I heard you'd been sick and I just called to tell you that I'm glad your operation is successful and to wish you well and tell you how glad we are to have your daughter Jane working with us at Bud Krogh.
[0:17] Well, you're most kind.
[0:19] I got one of these new charnley hips.
[0:21] Oh, well, good.
[0:22] You know, it's an entirely new hip.
[0:24] That makes you play golf better or the other way?
[0:26] Oh, hell yes.
[0:28] If it doesn't, you know, I wasted my time.
[0:30] Yeah, right.
[0:32] Well, I'll tell you, after all the money you've raised and everything like that, you deserve a little rest.
[0:36] So play a lot of golf, and when your hip gets better, you'll be ready for the bigger battle next year.
[0:41] Fair enough?
[0:42] Be kind to call.
[0:43] I was glad to see you on TV this morning.
[0:45] I thought it was a very encouraging message.
[0:47] Right.
[0:48] Okay.
[0:49] Thank you very much.
[0:50] Bye.
