[0:00] Yeah.
[0:03] Oh, I'm just waiting for Bob to get over here and come say anything.
[0:14] Anything new?
[0:14] Sure.
[0:14] In your department?
[0:22] Yeah.
[0:25] Can he make breakfast?
[0:26] No, it's all right.
[0:27] It would be Monday.
[0:27] Monday would be good.
[0:29] Yeah.
[0:38] Well, you could do it Saturday morning.
[0:40] Well, fine.
[0:41] All right.
[0:42] That would be that.
[0:48] But maybe breakfast is not the thing.
[0:49] How about the... All right, fine.
[0:50] Well, I'd rather do it when it's hot.
[0:52] Could you come in...
[0:57] I'll tell you, would he like to, uh... Is he free tonight?
[1:19] Are you free?
[1:19] Oh, no, he doesn't want to.
[1:20] I tried to issue it.
[1:20] Right, right, right.
[1:21] Why don't you call him and see if he'd like to take a boat ride tonight?
[1:23] Okay.
[1:45] Fine.
[1:45] Okay.
[1:45] He said he's got some fascinating news.
[1:46] I mean, analysis, not news.
[1:47] Actually, it's analysis, not news.
[1:47] He's not writing a file.
[1:48] He said he wants to do it, but he doesn't do it.
[1:49] He doesn't do it.
[1:54] Got me back at 9.
[2:18] Passed off.
[2:18] That's a good one.
[2:19] Very good.
[2:29] Again, I'm touching up here.
[2:46] I'll hold until Monday morning for breakfast.
[2:47] Maybe for another Monday morning.
[2:48] You see the thing sort of holding where it was.
[2:58] Two Governors today, Kato and Bruce, who are sitting on my left and my left.
[3:17] Over at the southern bank, they've got a lot of young people coming.
[3:19] We're going to get some hostility.
[3:19] They're just talking about Russia and China, and we'll get out of the way.
[3:21] Okay.
[3:21] I've got two of them.
[3:26] I think food is coming out.
[3:51] There must be other things coming out.
[3:52] That's a good one.
[3:52] That's good.
[3:53] Yeah, I don't know.
[3:53] They're worth a damn what you're talking about.
[3:54] Did that come out?
[3:54] No.
[3:55] If you told me eight.
[3:55] God.
[4:00] That's right.
[4:13] Do you want some stock?
[4:30] What about the breakfast meeting?
[4:50] Give me money for two scams and you take care of the press.
[4:51] Oh, wait a minute.
[4:51] This Tuesday.
[4:52] I have no money for two scams.
[4:52] No, scamming tonight.
[4:53] Scamming.
[4:53] No, we do scamming tonight.
[4:54] And Harris, Monday or Tuesday, if this fellow, well, Harris won't be using the record, but if Monday or Tuesday, I'm sure he will.
[5:33] They had broken it off my chain.
[5:49] I was pretty well aware.
[5:49] It was just perfectly within me.
[5:50] And the power hooker didn't really set him right up the damn wall.
[5:51] And he did get across the low stand, but I was just damn careful and I never attacked him.
[6:15] Yeah, yeah.
[6:34] It's the way that came through, you know.
[6:35] Her apartment.
[6:35] She blows.
[6:35] She's a fanatic on everything.
[6:36] She's a fanatic when she blows.
[6:37] Of course, I rather think she's a fanatic because of cold weather.
[6:54] Well, you can check the scan if it's free.
