[0:24] It's not quite decided yet, but... [0:25] Yes, and it's very difficult now because of the abortion laws of Jameson, California. [0:27] As you know, they're getting rid of the pill, and they're bailing me out of the bank. [0:28] I really don't understand how to keep it that way. [0:30] I'm sure this is what you're thinking of, and so it's very difficult for you to go on, maybe. [0:46] I feel very fortunate. [0:46] I mean, it's just about a year ago. [0:47] We had, you know, I used to be a friend of Dr. Pino. [0:48] Did you? [0:48] Yes, at the work center in Seattle. [0:49] Yes, that's the... [0:50] Yes, of course. [0:50] He said, well, he told them about this thing about, you know, going through this adoption thing, and one of them had community. [1:11] Remember, you and I planned. [1:12] Yeah. [1:12] He's got a lineup, sir. [1:12] When we came up on stage, you said, don't you? [1:13] That's all right. [1:14] All right. [1:14] We'll take it for them, too. [1:14] So I thought, here's a few that you don't have to take, right? [1:16] Well, of course. [1:16] That's the point of your daughter. [1:17] Her daughter's in there. [1:21] Well, we were honored to have you look like White House. [1:45] We'll send you the second adoption at the second threshold, as we promised on the field. [1:50] Good. [2:01] Steve, I won't say my whole thing. [2:17] I'm going to work out. [2:18] I'm going to get my best of them. [2:19] I appreciate that. [2:27] Thank you.
