I have Ms. Woods calling you, Mr. President.
Sure.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Hello.
Hi, 8 o'clock is fine Friday morning, and he said he'll be there even before that.
That amazing man, 70 years old, he's in that office.
He really is.
And he said, you know, the earlier you come, the less apt you are to see anybody.
Fine.
And I called Alice Kinsella and chatted with her a few minutes.
Is he still there?
Yes.
Oh, I'll be darned.
So I just said I was thinking about her and called to say Happy Thanksgiving.
Will they be there on Friday?
Yes.
The farm is open Friday.
Well, I'll tell you what, you know, I don't think I ought to surprise them because some of the ones that really would just have done work and everything would just hate it if they missed it, see?
Yeah, you think we ought to have Len sort of arrange it?
Well, that might be a nice thing.
That would be nice.
I was talking to Lynn about other things yesterday.
I don't know.
Of course, you've got John Mitchell there.
Yeah, maybe I should call John Mitchell.
I think John Mitchell is the one you should talk to.
See, that wouldn't be Lynn's bag.
Lynn should know that I'm doing it.
Yeah.
I'll tell you, you can call John and tell him that I tentatively would be there around 2 o'clock in the afternoon or 2.30.
Say 2.30, 2.30.
2.30, because you have appointments here in the morning time.
Their luncheons are—well, I know, but I'm going to finish by 11.
Let me see when I get there.
I'll be there about 3 o'clock.
Just a second.
Why don't we say, because I know they like to get out for their early weekends and so forth at that time probably.
Why don't we say, Rose, I'll be there about 2.30 to 3 o'clock.
2.30 to 3?
Right.
Okay.
Right.
And then I'll just tell them I'm just going to drop in and say hello to the people.
I've got about—just a brief visit.
Okay.
Yeah, and you're not going to stop in the stock exchange or anything like that?
I hadn't thought I would.
I don't know.
I don't know whether it's open on Friday anyway, is it?
I don't know.
I would imagine so, but I don't really know.
But I'll tell John Mitchell this, that you want him to say that already, or are you sure enough that you want him to say that?
Yes, yes, I'm sure enough that I'll be up there.
Just stop by and say hello.
I don't want to go office to office.
That takes too much time.
No, no.
Well, they could use that.
They could just have the people gathered.
I mean, the people, the secretaries and all the rest sort of gathered around in the reception room, and I can say, hello, thank you very much, and so forth, and then drop into the room with the senior partners to talk about it.
See?
Sure.
Have a few minutes.
But John will know how to set it up.
Oh, sure.
Fine.
Okay.
Thank you.
Rose?
Yes, sir?
Oh, would you also set up an appointment with the barber for, if we could,
Maybe could we set him up at 9 o'clock?
9 o'clock, please.
All right.
Bye.
Bye.
Thanks, Rose.
You're welcome.
Thank you.
Bye.
