Hello.
I have Mr. Ron Walker, Mr. President.
Yeah.
Hello.
Mr. President.
Hello.
Yes, sir, Mr. President.
Well, from all accounts, I want you to know that we just thought you and your boys did a fantastic job over there.
I know you must be bushed, so get some time off.
But all the talks with our Chinese friends, they remarked about how young all of you were, but I imagine you've added 10 years to your lives.
Well, sir, I feel very, very proud that I could participate in it.
You must be.
You got a little cold?
Yes, sir, a little bit.
You're going to Florida?
Yes, sir, I am.
I appreciate that very much.
That'll fix you up.
Well, you deserve the rest.
I know you do appreciate it.
Thank you, sir, very much.
