[4:24:26] You may find a little more rhythm in me, but it's the toughness that you want.
[4:24:34] Yeah, yeah.
[4:24:34] By the toughness, I mean subtle.
[4:24:36] I don't want it to subtly take on.
[4:24:38] But yet I don't want the direct challenge taken on either.
[4:24:42] So, okay.
[4:24:42] Fine.
[4:24:42] Okay, fine.
[4:24:43] Good job.
[4:24:44] And I just say, you don't have to, as soon as you get it done, send it up on the telecast or whatever it is.
[4:24:49] Okay, I'll bring it along on the trip, so...
[4:24:55] Hold that.
[4:24:55] Hold on, hold on.
[4:24:56] Well, why don't you do this?
[4:25:01] Why don't you just go along and come up to Camp David, in case I want to finish it up there.
