[0:00] Hi.
[0:01] Oh, Pat, I wanted to tell you that I have to do a little more work over here.
[0:06] I'm not going to speak long, but I've got to do some work on my remarks.
[0:11] I'm just going to stay here and eat a bite because I don't want to eat much.
[0:13] So would you go ahead and have something to eat there?
[0:17] Yeah.
[0:17] How'd the thing go today?
[0:18] Oh, my gosh, they're still piling through.
[0:20] Good.
[0:21] By the thousands.
[0:22] You know, it's funny, those little blackheads, they're so uncommunicated.
[0:25] Well, but these were better than most.
[0:27] Did you know that?
[0:28] Is that right?
[0:29] They were all dressed up and everything.
[0:30] Yeah, they were nicely dressed.
[0:31] Yeah.
[0:32] Well, you've got to give it back, though, you know.
[0:34] Yeah, well, with you, I think it was a little different.
[0:36] They were better, you know.
[0:37] I see.
[0:38] They were kind of.
[0:39] Well, they were overcome a bit.
[0:40] Yeah.
[0:42] It worked real well.
[0:42] Did they think it was a success, the people that were there?
[0:45] Oh, my gosh, I'll say.
[0:48] Lots of people coming through, huh?
[0:49] Oh, they're still coming through.
[0:50] Wonderful.
[0:51] Yeah.
[0:51] Wonderful.
[0:53] David and Julie are going over to the dinner, aren't they?
[0:56] Yeah.
[0:56] We go at 8.45, so you get a bite now, and I'll get a bite about 6.30.
[1:02] Okay.
[1:02] Okay, good.
