Yeah.
Oh, fine.
Hello.
I should have called over that you had that wonderful victory, but I was a little busy at the time, but I just wanted to tell you that I'm glad to see that you came through and won the big one.
You got a hell of a kick out of one of those few events that probably happened.
That party without looking at the sentries on the bombings
And so I brought him across.
And you're, what are you going to do, what are you going to win this year?
You're going to call him for the match this year?
That's right, well, this was a great one, you know.
I had read, you know, at the end of the year, I read the summary of the year, and the call, and the big time.
Huh?
You didn't want the money, did you?
Ah, yeah.
No, you wanted to listen.
You just wanted to listen.
All right.
But the boy was just winning it by two strokes.
That was great.
Well, we wish you the best.
Now, look, don't, don't, I mean, I don't, don't agree with that.
Bye.
All right.
One day we've got to play.
I'm going to play with you.
I was talking to Bob Wilber earlier today, and he said, God damn it, you lose.
All right, all right, with funny strokes.
All right, bye.
Good to talk to you.
Bye.
Give my best to your wife.
Bye, bye.
