Hi.
Oh, Pat, I wanted to tell you that I have to do a little more work over here.
I'm not going to speak long, but I've got to do some work on my remarks.
I'm just going to stay here and eat a bite because I don't want to eat much.
So would you go ahead and have something to eat there?
Yeah.
How'd the thing go today?
Oh, my gosh, they're still piling through.
Good.
By the thousands.
You know, it's funny, those little blackheads, they're so uncommunicated.
Well, but these were better than most.
Did you know that?
Is that right?
They were all dressed up and everything.
Yeah, they were nicely dressed.
Yeah.
Well, you've got to give it back, though, you know.
Yeah, well, with you, I think it was a little different.
They were better, you know.
I see.
They were kind of.
Well, they were overcome a bit.
Yeah.
It worked real well.
Did they think it was a success, the people that were there?
Oh, my gosh, I'll say.
Lots of people coming through, huh?
Oh, they're still coming through.
Wonderful.
Yeah.
Wonderful.
David and Julie are going over to the dinner, aren't they?
Yeah.
We go at 8.45, so you get a bite now, and I'll get a bite about 6.30.
Okay.
Okay, good.
