[0:00] Good.
[0:00] Yeah.
[0:00] Well, that's fine.
[0:15] No, sir.
[0:36] No problem.
[0:57] Put Henry Kearns on the list.
[1:01] Henry knows Keisha.
[1:03] Very well.
[1:03] You know, a few years ago, there'd just been an enormous amount of handling.
[1:07] I mean, that's been good.
[1:08] That's been good.
[1:11] It's attractive.
[1:14] For that kind of party.
[1:16] Sometimes they'd be done on this.
[1:20] It might come up to a shape.
[1:21] It's the kind of people you see there.
[1:24] That's the kind of people you think of when they come up to a party.
[1:32] Or I don't know, maybe shake your beard.
[1:41] That's Friday night.
[1:44] If you don't know whether we've got an agent coming around here, they're probably just playing, so.
[1:50] I'm going to start heading down the stairs.
[1:57] I'm going to go set up a big table in the back.
[2:00] I'm going to go to my mom.
[2:03] It's great that it will be upstairs, definitely.
[2:13] I'm not really looking for us to take it upstairs, definitely.
[2:16] I don't have a problem at all with the other party.
[2:27] Well, upstairs is still good.
[2:28] It's still a very good reason to have it upstairs.
[2:35] Monday afternoon.
[3:08] Monday afternoon is better.
[3:12] It gets him a little time too long.
[3:14] That's what's good.
[3:15] Monday afternoon.
[3:15] Monday afternoon is pretty long.
[3:17] I mean, it's going to take some hard hunting.
[3:26] It's going to take some hard hunting.
[3:27] It's going to take some hard hunting.
[3:30] The more I've seen of him, I think he's, he doesn't come around when you kick him.
[3:34] You know what?
[3:36] If you know something, it's a Jewish tradition.
[3:39] I tell them, although I don't know many churches, if they think they have the upper hand, you know, if they get arrogant, you know, it's just very important for them to be a little bit honest when they come to you.
[3:57] That's why they always, and that's why they are so arrogant.
[4:00] I have other people, because they know their reaction.
[4:04] They never react to something.
[4:06] That's right.
[4:13] That's right.
[4:20] You're right.
[4:21] They must be worried.
[4:31] I don't know.
[4:36] I don't.
[4:36] I just wondered if you should do the same with the Los Angeles time.
[4:43] Why not just leave early?
[4:43] That's my point.
[4:46] And, uh, even if you don't know what I mean, it's, uh, not personal, I'd say.
[5:00] I'm not careful.
[5:05] It happens, too.
[5:05] Sound anything?
[5:13] That's right.
[5:13] Slow.
[5:13] Keep dragging.
[5:16] That's right.
[5:18] Drag the feet all over the goddamn place.
[5:25] I thought there was something else the whole time.
