Yes, Mr. President.
Operator, could you get Mr. Arnold Palmer?
You know, he's up in, he's at a golf club in Pennsylvania, but I'm sure you've got his number, okay?
Yes, sir.
And, Mr. President, on Julie, the number that I had does not answer.
Ah, yes, she's probably traveling.
Uh-huh, but the agent said that he'd try to get her to call in from a different number.
Sure.
So I'm waiting on her.
No, hurry on.
All right.
Thank you.
