Oh, Steve.

Yes, sir.

I have the barber at 4.30, I think.

All right, sir.

Give me time before Glenn.

All right, fine, sir.

Fine.

The other thing, you want me at 2.45 now?

2.45 is if it's convenient with you, sir.

Fine.

I'll come over and do that and then do the diplomatic credentials.

All right, sir.

Fine.

Okay, Steve.

Thank you.
